For 2024, the QX60 doesn’t see major changes, but it now includes INFINITI Premium Care, covering maintenance like oil changes and inspections for up to 3 years or 30,000 miles. It also keeps its strong lineup of safety and tech features, with wireless charging now standard across all trims.
- Car seat setup that actually makes sense: five lower anchors in the bench, tether anchors in every seat, and even a third row option… it’s flexible without being confusing
- Car seat–friendly tilt: you can actually access the third row with a car seat installed (as long as it’s using lower anchors), which is a big deal for real life
- Wide-opening rear doors: makes getting car seats in and out so much easier, especially with an infant seat when you need that extra space
- Spacious second row for car seats: tons of legroom even with a tall driver, so rear-facing seats don’t feel like a squeeze
- Third row you’ll actually use: only two seats back there, which I prefer, and enough room to make it work when you need it
- Tether anchors everywhere: every single seat has a top tether anchor, which gives you so much flexibility for forward-facing installs
- Storage that works for families: 14 cup holders, solid door cubbies, and that underfloor trunk storage that actually helps fit a stroller
- Thoughtful mom features: things like the seatbelt display, auto hold for pickup lines, and a legit place to throw your purse just make everyday life easier
The Exterior
- Front end feels way more elevated: you’ve got that big grille with the gloss black and chrome, plus the little Infiniti detailing inside… it just looks a lot more premium than the previous version
- LED headlights are really pretty at night: they have this geometric shape that actually stands out, not just your standard SUV lighting
- Side profile is clean and elongated: the body lines and that continuous chrome trim make the car feel longer and more streamlined
- Black roof option is a standout: especially on lighter colors, it gives that two-tone look that just feels more high-end and a little more modern
- Wheels and detailing look upscale: the two-tone wheels and overall finishes don’t feel cheap, which I appreciate at this price point
- Comfort access on all four doors: this is one of those little things, but as a mom… I love that I can unlock the car from any door when my hands are full
- Rear design is cleaner than competitors: I like that the taillights don’t stretch all the way across like some other SUVs, it breaks things up nicely
- Fake exhaust tips… not my favorite: they’re just for looks, and once you notice it, you can’t unsee it
So overall, I really like the way this car looks. It finally feels like Infiniti stepped into a more modern, luxury space—but still kept it practical in the ways that actually matter when you’re using it every day.

First Row
Let’s talk about the first row, because there is a lot going on up here—and overall, it feels like a big step up in terms of luxury and usability.
- Digital display + heads-up display: I love that everything feels really modern, and the heads-up display is one of my favorite features because you’re not taking your eyes off the road
- Seatbelt status feature: this is such a mom win… it literally tells you who’s buckled, so you’re not constantly turning around trying to check
- Infotainment screen is clean and easy to see: it’s a 12.3-inch touchscreen that’s slightly angled toward the driver, so visibility is actually really good
- Controls are mostly intuitive: minimal buttons, some touch controls with vibration feedback… it feels streamlined without being confusing
- Wireless charger + great cupholders: cupholders are a really nice size (yes, your big water bottle will fit), and the wireless charger is easy to access
- Shifter design saves space: it’s a little different, but I like how it opens up more room in the center area
- Purse storage is a win: there’s a dedicated spot underneath the console, which I will absolutely use every single day
- Center console is a little small: it’s deep, but I do wish it was a bit bigger for everything we tend to carry
- Piano black trim looks nice… but fingerprints: it’s pretty, but just know it’s going to show everything, so keep a cloth nearby
- Overall comfort feels very high-end: quilted leather, ventilated seats, heated seats, even massaging seats in this trim… it definitely feels like a luxury experience
Second Row
You have two setup options: a bench seat or captain’s chairs. If you’re thinking about multiple car seats, the bench is where you’re going to get the most flexibility.
- Lower anchors (LATCH) in the bench: there are five total, which is more than we typically see. This means you can install a car seat in the middle or either outboard seat using lower anchors… but you can’t share anchors, so it’s still one seat per set
- Lower anchors with captain’s chairs: you’ll have a set on each outboard seat, which is standard, but you lose that middle install option
Every seat in the second row has a top tether anchor, which is a huge win. So no matter where you’re putting a forward-facing car seat, you’re covered—which is exactly what we want to see.
Spacing back here is honestly really impressive. Even with the driver’s seat set for someone tall, there’s still plenty of room, so rear-facing car seats should fit comfortably without forcing you to move the front seats up.
- Room for multiple car seats: the bench gives you more flexibility if you’re trying to do two or even three across (depending on your seats), while captain’s chairs make everyday access a little easier
- Seats slide forward and back: so you can adjust based on whether you need more legroom in the second row or more space in the third
Now let’s talk about access, because this is where this car really stands out. You have the car seat–friendly tilt feature, which means the second row will actually move forward even with a car seat installed—as long as it’s installed with the lower anchors.
- Car seat–friendly tilt: makes getting to the third row way more realistic, especially if you’re planning for multiple kids
- Wide-opening doors: gives you a ton of space for installs and getting kids in and out without feeling cramped
Third Row
First, this is a true two-seat third row. They didn’t try to squeeze in a tiny middle seat just to say it fits more people, and I actually love that because those middle seats are almost never usable anyway.
- Two real seats back here: this is a 7-passenger setup, not 8, and I think that makes it way more functional for actual families
- Legroom is… what you’d expect: you’re getting about 28 inches of legroom , so it’s not super spacious, but it works—especially if you slide the second row forward
- Adjustable second row makes a difference: when you move that second row up, it gives you noticeably more space back here, which helps a lot for kids or shorter rides
Now in terms of comfort and features, I was actually impressed because they didn’t completely forget about the third row like some brands do.
- Ceiling vents in the third row: huge win… airflow back here is non-negotiable for me
- USBs and cupholders on both sides: so kids actually have what they need, and you’re not constantly passing things back
- Reclining seats: this is something people don’t always think about, but it helps with comfort and can make car seat installs easier
Speaking of car seats, this is where I’d say it’s more of a “nice to have” than your primary setup.
- One set of lower anchors (LATCH): located on the driver’s side seat in the third row
- Top tether anchors available: so you can do a forward-facing install back here if needed
- Best for occasional use: you can install a car seat, but realistically, most families are going to prefer the second row for everyday installs
Access is actually pretty solid, which matters just as much as the space.
- Easy entry with one-touch tilt: you can press a button and the second row slides forward, making it much easier for kids to climb back
- Works with car seats installed (with lower anchors): this is a big deal… it makes the third row actually usable even when your second row is full
Trunk
Let’s talk about trunk space, because this is one of those areas where the QX60 is practical, but I wouldn’t call it class-leading. With the third row up, you’ve got 14.5 cubic feet back there, and that matches what Kelly was showing in the video. It’s enough for everyday stuff, a grocery run, a few bags, or possibly a stroller if you really use that underfloor space well, but it’s not one of those huge “throw everything in and go” trunks with all seats in place. Fold the third row down and it opens up to 41.6 cubic feet, plus Infiniti added 1.91 cubic feet of underfloor storage, which is honestly one of the more useful parts for family life.
- Usable space with the third row up: Kelly’s take felt right here. It’s decent, not massive, but that extra underfloor storage makes a real difference for strollers, sports gear, or the random kid stuff you don’t want rolling around
- Underfloor storage is the game changer: if you need a few more inches to make something fit, that hidden space is what helps this trunk work better than it first looks
- Third row folds easily: no power-fold drama back there, which honestly I don’t mind because manual is faster a lot of the time
- Family practicality is pretty solid: towels, cleats, diaper bag, groceries, little odds and ends... this feels very doable for normal day-to-day life
Compared to some other luxury three-row SUVs, the QX60 sits more in the “good enough for most families” zone than the “best in class” zone. For example, the 2022 Acura MDX offers 16.3 cubic feet behind the third row and 39.1 cubic feet behind the second row in standard measurement, so the Acura gives you a little more space when all seats are up, while the QX60 is a little better once the third row is folded. The Volvo XC90 is noticeably smaller in this area, with about 9 cubic feet behind the third row and 23 cubic feet behind the second row in its standard configuration, so the Infiniti is definitely more practical than that one for family cargo.
Safety
The 2024 Infiniti QX60 is an IIHS Top Safety Pick+.
Right off the bat, you’re getting a solid base of standard safety features across all trims, and then it builds from there depending on how high you go.
- Blind Spot Warning: helps you catch cars you might not see, especially helpful on highways or busy drop-off lines
- Rear Automatic Braking: this is a big one… if you’re backing up and don’t see something, the car can actually stop for you
- Rear parking sensors: makes parking and tight spaces way less stressful
- Lane Departure Prevention: not just a warning, it can actually help guide you back into your lane
- Traffic Sign Recognition: shows you speed limits and signs, so you don’t have to rely on memory or guessing
Then as you move up in trims, you start getting more advanced driver assistance features:
- ProPILOT Assist with Navi-link: this is Infiniti’s semi-autonomous driving system… it helps with steering, braking, and even adjusts based on navigation data
- Around View Monitor (360 camera): gives you a full view around the car, which is amazing for parking or just being aware of what’s around you
- Moving Object Detection: works with the camera system to alert you if something is moving nearby
And then there are a few features that I just really appreciate as a mom, because they make everyday driving feel easier and safer:
- Seatbelt status display: you can see who’s buckled without turning around, which is such a small thing but so helpful
- Smart Rear View Mirror: lets you switch to a camera view if your back window is blocked by kids or cargo
- Adaptive Front Lighting: headlights adjust as you turn, so you can actually see better at night
So overall, I’d say this is a really well-rounded safety setup. It’s not doing anything wildly different from competitors, but it is checking all the boxes—and more importantly, it includes features that actually help you in real, everyday situations with kids in the car.
It also includes seatbelt pretensioners in both the front and rear outermost seating positions to enhance passenger protection.
You have two second row options: a bench or captain’s chairs. If you’re a multiple car seat family, the bench is where you’re going to get the most flexibility.
- Five lower anchors in the bench: this is not something we see all the time, and it gives you the option to install in the middle or either outboard seat… just remember you can’t share anchors, so it’s still one seat per set
- Lower anchors with captain’s chairs: one set on each outboard seat, which is standard, but you lose that middle install option
- Top tether anchors in every seat: this is a huge win… second row, third row, everywhere you need for forward-facing installs
Now let’s talk about real-life setup. You’re not necessarily fitting more car seats because of the extra anchors, but you are getting more flexibility in how you configure them, which matters a lot depending on your kids’ ages and seat types.
- Great space for rear-facing seats: I had the driver’s seat set for a tall driver, and there was still plenty of room, which is exactly what you want
- Multiple car seat potential: the bench gives you the best shot at doing two or even three across depending on your seats, while captain’s chairs make daily access easier
And then this is the feature that really stands out to me…
- Car seat–friendly tilt: you can actually move the second row forward with a car seat installed, as long as it’s using the lower anchors, which makes getting to the third row way more realistic
- Third row car seat option: you do have one set of lower anchors on the driver’s side back there plus tether anchors, so you can make a car seat work if you need to
