00:03:32 Test Drive Invitation and Closing Remarks
SPEAKER 01 :
All right, I actually happen to drive here of late a 2025 Infiniti QX60. This is the luxe all-wheel drive version. I actually got a chance to drive this vehicle in some of the snow that we had of late as well, and I’ll tell you, Richard, it works very well. This is a vehicle that, for all of you listening, actually comes in, and it’s priced relatively what I consider to be reasonable, given what you’re actually getting. 62745 was the model that we chose, or that we drove, I should say. Now, you can choose… These in the starting range of about 50K, which if you look at a full-size three-row SUV, which we were talking about another vehicle here just a moment ago, this vehicle, Richard, fits all of that with more luxury than the last one we were talking about. So it actually does that better, has a larger backseat and cargo capacity, and you get everything that – you get from infinity this particular vehicle has a two liter turbo engine which produces about 256 horsepower no sorry 268 horsepower and a nine speed transmission now what i will say is as far as power goes i will say again not this is not a race car But does it have enough get-up-and-go to really get out of traffic, or I should say get into traffic, merge incorrectly, all those different things? Yes, it does. Now, would I prefer to have a little bit more power? Yes. Now, on the same token, I averaged around town in the high 20s for a fuel economy. So if you’re looking for a full-size luxury SUV, all-wheel drive, able to handle up to, I would say, comfortably… two four six passengers i would say i know it’s ranked for more but really comfortably those amount of passengers richard if you’ve got to your point a family or growing family or what have you and you’re looking for a little bit more in luxury than what you’re going to find from some of the counterparts which i’m not going to name other names but there’s some other vehicles out there that are not luxury car brands that will have a similar vehicle without the third row In that 60K range. So you’re getting a lot of vehicle for 62K in this QX60. And I will say for a lot of you listening, have they done some upgrades on this? Yes. Were they needed? Yes. Have they come a long way with that? Yes. In fact, Richard, one of the things we used to always complain about was the infotainment system and some things along those lines. I will tell you, much better than it ever has been. The car play, you know, the wireless car play, all of that works great. In fact, I will just say it straight up, Richard. I really, as far as daily driving and having a very comfortable vehicle to drive that you can put your entire family in, was there a negative I had on this car? Honestly, Richard, no, I don’t have a negative on this car. Not one.
SPEAKER 02 :
Well, I’m not saying something because, again, we can usually find something that is wrong with these vehicles. And in this case, Dan, I know, like you said, you mentioned Infiniti has really made leaps and bounds. They’ve always been known as a luxury car brand and manufacturer, Dan, but they’ve really improved it. You’re actually kind of getting some value there. Not kind of. You are. You are. You’re getting some value more so than in years past in some other brands. So, again, I think for folks that maybe they haven’t looked at an Infiniti in a while, Dad, and especially if you’ve got a growing family, you want to be on that luxury end, but you don’t want to spend some of the luxury prices. Right. It sounds like it’s a vehicle that’s a possibility for a lot of people.
SPEAKER 01 :
Absolutely. So, folks, as we always say, go check out this vehicle at your local Infinity dealer. You’re probably going to find some of these in stock right now, so if you want to go take a test drive, you certainly can.
