The first Infiniti QX60 generation rolled out in 2012. It proved to be a strong contender against the SUVs by other well-known automotive brands. The front and all-wheel drive system<\/a> and high fuel efficiency made the QX60 a major success. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the front, the SUV boasted a horizontal-slat chrome-plated car grille. The front headlights had a swept-back design with corner-mounted turn signals. The front appearance was further enhanced by a wrapped-around, curved bumper and front fenders. The QX60 came with twenty-inch chromed light-alloy wheels. Also, it had a wheelbase of 114.2 inches. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Due to the extended wheelbase, the QX60 offered ample interior space. The SUV came with three-seat rows and seating for seven. It featured a lower front dashboard with a rounded instrument cluster. Moreover, the centre stack was equipped with an infotainment system with specific controls. However, it didn\u2019t have a touch-sensitive screen. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The car came standard with a front or an AWD drivetrain system and a CVT transmission<\/a>. The petrol  and hybrid engines offered for the first Infiniti QX60 generation included:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Petrol engine:<\/strong> A 3.5-litre V6<\/a> engine that produced 268 horsepower.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
