Infiniti QX65 fastback SUV debuts with VC-Turbo engine

Infiniti has unveiled the all-new QX65, a fastback SUV scheduled to reach US retailers in early summer 2026 as a 2027 model year vehicle, with prices starting at US$53,990. The model draws on the design language of the FX series and marks a return to the fastback SUV format for the brand.

The QX65 is powered by Infiniti’s variable compression turbo (VC-Turbo) engine paired with a nine-speed automatic transmission, with the drivetrain tuned for a sportier shift schedule. Standard intelligent all-wheel drive is included across the range. Select grades can be equipped with ProPilot Assist 2.1, enabling hands-off driving in certain motorway scenarios.

The interior features dual 12.3-inch displays covering the instrument cluster and infotainment, with standard Google built-in, wireless Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto. Available audio configurations include a Klipsch premium sound system with Individual Audio and Personalised Sound Profile technology. Ambient lighting with 64 colour options, including four themes based on Japanese seasons, is offered as an option.

A new exterior colour, Sunfire Red, applies genuine gold-coated glass flecks through a three-layer coating process. The QX65’s rear design incorporates a full-width LED tail lamp with three-dimensional detailing.
