Edmunds' Expert Review

by the Edmunds Experts

Pros

Powerful and refined V8 power, good balance of ride and handling, class-leading towing capacity, roomy second-row seats, handy video parking monitor.

Cons

Some low-grade cabin trim, typical big SUV thirst.

What’s new

No significant changes this year for the QX56.

Edmunds says

If the styling suits you, the rest of this import luxury liner should, too, as the QX56 more than measures up to its domestic competitors.

2005 INFINITI QX56 4WD 4dr SUV (5.6L 8cyl 5A)

I purchased this vehicle at Inifiniti of Memphis, my hometown and I reside in Arkansas near the Oklahoma border (about 5 hours)and on my trip home, I felt like I was a first class passenger flying in a JET. I have driven several different SUV's and my choice was between this vehicle and the Cadillac Escalade. I must say that the escalade is beautiful on the outside like the Inifiniti, …

we have had nothing but problems with this car. Brakes have been replaced 3 times already, cruise has never worked, front window gets stuck continuely, dvd replaced twice, and the car is now beginning to rattle at various spots. We are trying to use the lemon law to get our money back.

2005 INFINITI QX56 4WD 4dr SUV (5.6L 8cyl 5A)
