Used 2023 INFINITI QX55 SUV Trims Comparison

Trim level differences

The 2023 QX55 is a small crossover SUV that's related to Infiniti's QX50. The main difference is the QX55's sleeker roofline. It comes in three trim levels: Luxe, Essential and Sensory. All models have a turbocharged four-cylinder engine (268 horsepower, 280 lb-ft of torque), a continuously variable transmission and all-wheel drive. Feature highlights include:

Luxe

  • 20-inch wheels
  • LED headlights
  • Roof rails
  • Heated mirrors
  • Power liftgate
  • Sunroof
  • Dual-zone automatic climate control
  • Leather upholstery
  • Power-adjustable front seats
  • Dual-screen infotainment system
  • Six-speaker sound system with satellite radio
  • Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration (wireless functionality for CarPlay)
  • Wi-Fi hotspot

Driver assist features include:

  • Lane keeping system (makes minor steering corrections to help keep the vehicle centered in its lane)
  • Forward and rear collision warning with automatic braking (warns you of an impending collision and applies the brakes in certain scenarios)
  • Adaptive cruise control (maintains a driver-set distance between the QX55 and the car in front)
  • Blind-spot intervention (automatically steers the car back into its lane if you try to change lanes while a car is in the vehicle's blind spot)
  • Rear cross-traffic warning (alerts you if a vehicle behind you is about to cross your path while you're in reverse)
  • Rear parking sensors (alert you to obstacles that may not be visible behind the vehicle when parking)
  • Infiniti's ProPilot Assist (enhanced lane keeping assistance and adaptive cruise control functionality)
  • Automatic high beams

Essential
Adds more luxury features, such as:

  • Adaptive headlights (they swivel as you turn) with distinctive design
  • Rain-sensing wipers
  • Power-adjustable steering column
  • Driver's seat memory settings
  • Heated steering wheel
  • Heated and ventilated front seats
  • 16-speaker Bose premium sound system
  • Navigation system
  • Surround-view camera system (gives you a top-down view of the QX55 and its surroundings for tight parking situations)
  • Front parking sensors
  • Traffic sign reader

Sensory
This top-shelf QX55 trim comes with all of the above features as standard, plus:

  • Hands-free liftgate
  • Premium leather upholstery
  • Tri-zone automatic climate control with air filtration
  • Heated rear outboard seats
  • Head-up display (displays important information in your sight line on the windshield)

Which QX55 trim does Edmunds recommend?

Even though the base Luxe trim is very well appointed, we suggest upgrading to the midrange Essential trim. For the rather reasonable price increase, you get more high-end features that include climate-controlled front seats, premium audio and a surround-view camera system.
