The Infiniti QX60, called the Infiniti JX until the 2014 model year, is a mid-size luxury crossover SUV with three-row seating produced by Infiniti, the luxury vehicle division of Japanese automaker Nissan. It is underpinned by an elongated Nissan Murano platform also used by the Nissan Pathfinder.
In keeping with Infiniti's naming scheme for 2014, in which cars begin with Q and SUVs begin with QX, the JX was renamed to QX60. While the number previously denoted engine displacement (for example, 35=3.5L engine), the new number, 60, is largely to do with its place in the product lineup, with larger numbers usually corresponding to more expensive vehicles.




First generation (L50; 2013)



The Infiniti JX35 was announced in April 2012 in the United States as a 2013 model. A concept version had been debuted at the 2011 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance event, while the production model was unveiled at the 2011 Los Angeles Auto Show. For 2014, the car was renamed the QX60.
The QX60 was the first three-row crossover to be released by Infiniti. Design work was done through 2009, by Naoyuki Ohkoshi under Shiro Nakamura. In 2012 Nissan announced that the Pathfinder would also have the same platform as the QX60 for the 2013 model year.
The QX60 had previously been under consideration for the Australian market, but the numbers for right-hand-drive re-engineering and local homologation failed to add up and get approved by Australian authorities unlike its Nissan Pathfinder sibling. This results that the QX60 would not be available in RHD markets as it would only be available exclusively in LHD markets.

The QX60's original 3.5-liter VQ35DE V6 engine produces an output of 265 hp (198 kW) and 248 lb⋅ft (336 N⋅m). For 2017, this was updated with direct injection. The QX60 uses a continuously variable transmission.
For the 2014 model year, a hybrid version was introduced. The hybrid is powered by a supercharged 2.5-liter twin-cam 16-valve four cylinder engine with an electric motor and a compact 0.6 kWh lithium-ion battery pack located under the 3rd row seat. The new supercharged inline-four (QR25DER) is rated at 230 hp (170 kW) and 243 lb⋅ft (329 N⋅m), while the electric motor kicks in 15 kW (20 hp) and 29 lb⋅ft (39 N⋅m). Claimed total system power stands at 250 hp (186 kW) and 243 lb⋅ft (329 N⋅m). The QX60 Hybrid was discontinued in Summer 2017 for the 2018 model year, 3 years after the Nissan Pathfinder Hybrid was discontinued in fall 2014 for the 2014 model year. Hybrid versions will be reintroduced in 2021 or 2022 as part of Nissan's electrification plans starting with the second generation model. The QX60 and QX60 Hybrid were the first vehicles in Infiniti's North American lineup to use Nissan's Continuously Variable Transmission.
The 2017 QX60 was powered by a 3.5-liter, direct-injected V-6 that makes 295 hp (220 kW) and 270 lb⋅ft (366 N⋅m) of torque.

= Safety recalls

=
On October 9, 2013, Nissan Pathfinder units and Infiniti JX35/QX60 units manufactured between September 15, 2011, and September 20, 2013, were recalled due to the risk of output software on the antilock brake system causing vehicle damage and a crash.
On February 13, 2017, Infiniti QX60 hybrid units sold in China that were manufactured between January 19, 2016 and February 5, 2016 were recalled due to certain parts of fuel tanks being thinner than standard, leading to possible fuel leakage under heavy collision and possibly causing a vehicle fire. This affected 205 vehicles that were built in 2016.
In November 2019, Nissan recalled 400,000 Nissan and Infiniti vehicles including certain 2017-2019 model year Infiniti QX60s and Nissan Pathfinders, 2015-2018 model year Nissan Muranos, and 2016-2018 model year Nissan Maximas due a faulty pump seal that will wear down prematurely and cause the brake fluid to leak leading to a vehicle fire if owners ignore the ABS warning light when it turns on. The recall also includes vehicles that were part of a previous similar recall that haven't been repaired. This recall comes after a woman's 2016 Nissan Murano parked on a street near community mailboxes in Texas ignited on fire several minutes after the ABS warning light came on and didn't realize initially that her Murano was included in the recall until she started smelling burnt melted plastic with the warning coming on. Another Nissan vehicle fire occurred as well when another 2016 Nissan Murano at a car dealership in Georgia ignited on fire. A third accident also occurred when a 2017 Nissan Maxima ignited on fire and exploded less than a month after it was manufactured and purchased due to brake fluid leaking onto the circuit board. Nissan currently doesn't have any fix for this recall and stated that all owners of the affected vehicles are to park their vehicles immediately in open spaces away from garages, buildings, and other vehicles as soon as the ABS warning light turns on. Nissan says that is working on a remedy and once the remedy becomes available, Nissan will eventually send a final notification letter to owners of the affected vehicles asking them to bring the vehicles to authorized Nissan and Infiniti dealers immediately to have the vehicles inspected and remedy work completed at no cost for parts and labor.




Second generation (L51; 2022)



The second-generation QX60 was unveiled on June 23, 2021. The vehicle was previously previewed by the QX60 Monograph concept, and has been developed alongside the R53 Nissan Pathfinder that debuted in early February 2021 also as a 2022 model. It also uses a version of the architecture used by the previous generation, updated with additional high-strength steel and other materials for more stiffness.
The vehicle uses the same powertrain as the previous generation and the Pathfinder, which is the VQ35DD 3.5-liter V6 gasoline engine mated to a 9-speed automatic from ZF, replacing the continuously variable transmission. Tuned slightly higher for the Infiniti, the engine makes 295 hp (299 PS; 220 kW) and 270 lb⋅ft (366 N⋅m; 37.3 kg⋅m). Front-wheel drive is standard and an updated all-wheel-drive system with a direct coupling is optional. Some grades will have the capability to tow up to 6,000 lb (2,722 kg), 20 percent more than the outgoing model due to an uprated transmission oil cooler, an integrated hitch receiver, trailer-tuned stability programming, and dedicated pre-wiring harnesses. The Chinese version of the 2nd-generation Infiniti QX60 will be powered by a turbocharged 2.0L four cylinder KR20DDET engine instead of the VQ35DD 3.5-liter V6 gasoline engine as the 3.5-liter V6 engine is unable to comply with China's automotive emissions standards and due to China's excise tax on internal-combustion engines that are more 3.0 liters.
The L51 QX60 is a seven-seater vehicle, with a two-position rear bench that preserves room in the middle for a storage box, or an optional pair of captain's chairs.
In 2024, Nissan announced that the current sole VQ35DD 3.5-liter V6 gasoline engine that powers the global-market Infiniti QX60 and Nissan Pathfinder will be dropped and will be replaced by a turbocharged 2.0L inline-four cylinder gasoline engine, similar to the one already seen on the Chinese-market versions of Infiniti QX60 and Nissan Pathfinder, for the 2025 model year due to stringent automotive emissions and fuel economy standards required for future model years and due to Nissan's push to transition its vehicle lineups to 100% all-electric vehicles by the 2030s.
