2022 Infiniti Q60 Interior and Cargo

If a customer decides to sacrifice two doors to get an aesthetically pleasing exterior, chances are cargo room doesn't feature high on their list of priorities. BMW, Mercedes, and Audi have all found a nice balance between a beautiful exterior and a useful interior. By comparison, the Q60's 8.7 cubic foot trunk is laughably small. This is barely enough for a handful of groceries, let alone luggage for four passengers, not that you could easily fit that many anyway. The rear bench can fold flat to offer more space, but the Q60 will never be considered practical.

Small-item storage is slightly more accommodating, though you have to get by with only two door pockets. Both rows of seats get their own set of cup holders, at least, and the center armrest storage up front is on the larger side.

Infiniti follows the tried and trusted Japanese way of including a lot of equipment as standard. The base-spec Pure has remote keyless entry with a push-button start, a leather-wrapped steering wheel and shifter, eight-way power-adjustable front seats, dual-zone climate control, cruise control, a rearview camera, and forward-collision warning. The Luxe adds a power moonroof, along with an auto-dimming rearview mirror, semi-aniline leather upholstery, heated front seats, a heated steering wheel, a surround-view camera, and remote engine start. These features are joined by a decent safety specification, including forward collision avoidance, pedestrian detection with automatic braking, blind-spot monitoring, rear-collision warning, and lane-departure warning. The Red Sport rounds out the package with a power-adjustable tilt and telescoping steering wheel, paddle shifters, and access to exclusive accessories and packages.

The Infiniti's infotainment system has the appearance of a modern dual-screen interface with haptic feedback. But you soon realize that it's just an elaborate illusion. The graphics are below par, the interface is also confusing, and it's slow to react. However, It does feature all of the modern connectivity features we expect in our cars, including Apple CarPlay (wireless from this year) and Android Auto, making it a lot easier to interact with the system. It also has Bluetooth audio streaming, HD and satellite radio. The top screen is eight inches, and the lower is seven inches. The Pure has a six-speaker sound system, while the Luxe and Red Sport 400 are equipped with a 13-speaker Bose Performance Series surround-sound system. Navigation, Infiniti InTouch, and SiriusXM Travel Link are standard only on the Red Sport.
