Key Features of the 2027 INFINITI QX65
VC-Turbo
INFINITI’s celebrated 2.0L VC-Turbo engine is the beating heart of the QX65. Unlike a traditional fixed-compression engine, VC-Turbo automatically adjusts its compression ratio in response to driving conditions. That means you get brisk, sporty power when you press the throttle—and fuel-sipping efficiency when you are cruising with a lighter foot. Tuned specifically for the QX65, this engine is rated up to 268 hp and 286 lb-ft of torque and is paired to a 9-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters for crisp, confident gear changes. The tuning focus is on immediate torque response and smooth re-acceleration after a stop, which translates to easy merges on busy highways, reassuring passing power on two-lane roads, and an overall sense that the SUV is always ready for what comes next. The QX65 also requires premium unleaded gasoline to perform at peak operating efficiency, reflecting its commitment to refined, responsive performance.
Intelligent All-Wheel Drive
The QX65 comes exclusively with Intelligent All-Wheel Drive, giving you confident traction across changing roadway conditions. This system actively monitors wheel slip and road input, then distributes power to the wheels that can use it best. The benefits are tangible—from surefooted starts when pavement is cold or dusty, to stable cornering feel when conditions call for added composure. Pair that grip with available 21-inch machine-finished aluminum-alloy wheels and precise suspension tuning, and the QX65 consistently feels planted and predictable. Factor in the SUV’s capability to tow up to 6,000 lbs across all trims, and you get a two-row crossover that is not only poised for everyday life but ready to handle weekend toys as well. On SPORT and AUTOGRAPH models, available packages add helpful towing equipment like a Tow Hitch Member, Pre-Harness & Trailer Harness Plug, and Trailer Sway Control to simplify setup and bolster confidence.
ProPILOT Assist 2.1
Every QX65 includes standard ProPILOT Assist driver assistance technologies to help make commuting and longer highway drives feel more relaxed. On AUTOGRAPH models with the Technology Package, ProPILOT Assist 2.1 is available to elevate the experience further, using 3D high-definition mapping to help you plan for what is ahead while assisting with lane centering and freeway navigation between on-ramps and off-ramps. Intelligent Cruise Control and Steering Assist are designed to work together to help with stop-and-go traffic, even bringing the vehicle to a full stop and resuming when traffic moves. The system is always a support, never a substitute—you remain in control—but it meaningfully reduces the small stressors that add up over miles. Complementary features like High Beam Assist, Traffic Sign Recognition, a 10.8-inch Head-Up Display that projects key information onto the windshield, and an available Smart Rearview Mirror that feeds high-definition video to your mirror further enhance visibility and awareness.
3D Around View® Monitor
Parking and low-speed maneuvering are standouts, thanks to the available 3D Around View® Monitor with Moving Object Detection. This technology stitches together a 360-degree virtual bird’s-eye view around your QX65 to help you gauge proximity to curbs, posts, or other vehicles. The system’s available Invisible Hood View is especially helpful in tight garages or narrow lanes, letting you see your front wheels through the hood for pinpoint precision. Another thoughtful assist, Front Wide View, offers a near-180-degree forward perspective to help you inch safely past blind corners or out of alleys with limited sight lines. These advanced camera views are intuitive to access and easy to interpret, which means you will use them often—saving time and building confidence whether you are parallel parking in a busy district or threading through a tight trailhead lot for a quick hike.
INFINITI InTouch®
Tech is seamlessly integrated and remarkably approachable in the QX65, anchored by a wide-angle, high-resolution 12.3-inch INFINITI InTouch® color touchscreen. The interface is quick and intuitive, putting your media, vehicle settings, and navigation within effortless reach. QX65 with Google built-in gives you integrated access to Google Assistant and an onboard service ecosystem that continues to get smarter. Wireless Apple CarPlay® and wireless Android Auto™ come standard, so your favorite apps and podcasts are only a tap away—no cable required. The SUV also offers in-vehicle Wi-Fi (5G) for up to seven devices, letting passengers browse or stream on the go. Thoughtful personalization abounds, including Additional Driver profiles for up to five drivers and the Personalized Sound feature that tailors audio to your unique hearing profile. If you love premium sound, opt for the available 20-Speaker Klipsch® Reference Premiere Audio System, which includes individual audio headrest speakers for the driver and front passenger. Remote conveniences like Remote Lock/Unlock and Remote Climate Control are accessible through the MyINFINITI app to make your daily routine even easier.
