A 2019 QX50 with no options runs $37,675, but we loaded ours with almost every option available. The all-wheel-drive Essential model starts at $46,145 and includes a two-pane sunroof, blind-spot monitoring, leather, navigation, and Infiniti's 360-degree bird's-eye Around View Monitor.

Overview. The 2023 QX50 is Infiniti's entry-level luxury SUV positioned below the larger three-row QX60 and the enormous QX80. There is also the QX55, which is based on the QX50 and sports a sloping coupe-like roofline, and we review that separately.

Between the plush seats, cushy ride, and spacious back seat, the QX50 makes for a comfortable cruiser. The driver assist features are impressive, too, and come standard on every QX50 as of 2022.

The 2024 Infiniti QX50 competes in the crowded compact luxury SUV segment, facing off against stalwarts such as the BMW X3 and Mercedes-Benz GLC-class and well-rounded newcomers including the Genesis GV70.
