QX50: luxury crossover with evocative design

The 2025 INFINITI QX50 delights luxury crossover drivers with an evocative design, an extensive list of everyday-friendly features and responsive performance from a 2.0-liter variable-compression turbocharged (VC-Turbo) engine. The 2025 QX50 is on sale now at INFINITI dealers in the United States, with a starting MSRP of $43,000. For the 2025 model year, the QX50 is streamlined into three trim levels – PURE, LUXE and SPORT – all with standard Intelligent All-Wheel Drive.

The 2025 INFINITI QX50 impresses with muscular proportions and a sculpted body. INFINITI’s signature double-arch grille and crescent-shaped rear pillar help the model stand out, while a sleek roofline and bold lines along the sides add depth.

For buyers seeking an even more dynamic appearance, the QX50 SPORT features a sporty front bumper with several black-painted exterior elements: roof rails, window moldings, front grille, tailgate trim, exhaust tips, door handles and emblems. The visual enhancements continue inside with LED ambient lighting and a Graphite headliner.

The QX50 PURE and LUXE models feature 19-inch silver-painted wheels, while the QX50 SPORT features 20-inch dark-painted wheels. Depending on the trim level, customers can choose from seven exterior color options: Hermosa Blue, Graphite Shadow, Slate Gray, Black Obsidian, Dynamic Sunstone Red, Lunar White and Radiant White. Inside, PURE and LUXE models feature dark aluminum trim and Graphite or Pebble Gray upholstery; the QX50 SPORT features black aluminum accents and Graphite or Monaco Red leatherette upholstery.

The well-appointed cabin is both beautiful and functional for passengers and cargo. The second row slides to optimize legroom or cargo space, and can be folded flat to create up to 60 cubic feet (60 cubic feet with panoramic sunroof) of cargo space. A standard power tailgate, with motion-activated functionality on LUXE and SPORT models, provides easy access to the cargo area.

Advanced turbocharged engine for effortless performance...Complementing its energetic exterior, the QX50 delivers strong and responsive performance thanks to the world’s first mass-produced variable compression turbocharged (VC-Turbo) engine. The 2.0-liter engine delivers 268 horsepower and 380 Nm of torque, and is complemented by an XTRONIC transmission with Downshift Rev Matching and standard paddle shifters, providing a more engaging driving experience. With Intelligent All-Wheel Drive as standard on all models, the 2025 QX50 delivers fuel efficiency of 27.4 mpg in the city and 28.4 mpg on the highway. 

Intuitively Integrated Technology...As with all INFINITI vehicles, the QX50 incorporates technologies that make the journey more connected, convenient and fun. The standard INFINITI InTouch infotainment system features an 8.0-inch upper and 7.0-inch lower screens, with Android Auto and wireless Apple CarPlay. A total of four USB ports and a wireless charging pad for devices are standard. A 12-speaker Bose Premium Audio System is standard on the QX50 SPORT and optional on the LUXE, delivering richer, more realistic sound. The QX50 also features an impressive array of safety and driver-assistance technologies, including Predictive Forward Collision Warning, Forward Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection, Blind Spot Warning, Lane Departure Warning, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, Rear Automatic Braking and High Beam Assist.

ProPILOT Assist supports drivers in certain driving situations by helping them stay centered in their lane and assisting with acceleration and braking. The QX50 also offers several standard features that enhance the luxury of driving, including acoustic front windows and active noise cancellation to keep the cabin quieter, heated outside mirrors and remote engine start for cold weather, and dual-zone automatic climate control so drivers and passengers can set their preferred temperatures. The QX50 LUXE adds heated seats, a panoramic sunroof, roof rails and other luxurious touches, while the QX50 SPORT's notable equipment includes navigation, Surround View Monitor with Moving Object Detection and a heated steering wheel.
