Performance & Powertrain

• INFINITI QX60: Equipped with a 2.0-liter VC-Turbo inline-4 engine producing 268 horsepower and 286 lb-ft of torque, the QX60 delivers refined performance with strong torque for confident daily driving. Its advanced variable-compression design balances efficiency and capability, making it a standout in the segment.
• Lexus RX: Comes standard with a 2.4-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder that generates 275 horsepower and 317 lb-ft of torque. While it offers slightly more horsepower and torque on paper, the RX emphasizes efficiency and comfort over responsive acceleration and towing strength.
• Lexus TX: As a larger three-row SUV, the TX provides multiple powertrain options, including hybrid and plug-in hybrid configurations. While versatile, these come at a higher cost, and the TX’s size can feel less nimble compared to the QX60’s balance of agility, space, and refinement.

Verdict: With advanced turbocharged technology, confident torque, and a refined driving experience, the INFINITI QX60 offers the ideal blend of performance and practicality, standing out against both the RX and TX.
