In the market for a new car? If that’s the case, you’ve certainly got your hands full with all the research you’re about to do but don’t fret because your local Bergen county INFINITI dealership is here to help.

The following sections will compare the 2023 INFINITI QX60 and the 2023 Acura MDX. Then, you’ll be able to decide which one is right for you all by your lonesome. Don’t worry if you can’t pull the trigger, though. We’ll also be providing you with our recommendation at the end.

Seating For Seven

Firstly, let’s look at how many people these vehicles can seat. Both alternatives, the 2023 QX60, and the 2023 Acura MDX have four doors. That’s a really good thing, considering the SUVs can seat up to seven occupants. The entry points make it easy for everyone to get in and out of the cab. And what about after people get inside the rides? Do they have room to stretch and move, or are they squished?

The MDX (Left Photo) has 38.5 inches of front headroom, 41.6 inches of front legroom, and 61.9 inches of front shoulder room. Meanwhile, in the back, riders appreciate 38.1 inches of headroom, 38.5 inches of legroom, and 60.3 inches of shoulder room. Then, there’s the QX60 (Right Photo). Front passengers get 40.8 inches of headroom, 42.1 inches of legroom, and 60.6 inches of shoulder room. As for the space for rear passengers, they get 37.5 inches of room for their heads, 37.7 inches of legroom, and 59.7 inches of shoulder room.

What’s Beneath The Hood?

Do these SUVs have the power consumers crave? That depends on who you ask, but most folks are likely to say yes. This is because both of these vehicles have 3.5-liter 6-cylinder engines under their hoods, and they each perform similarly. For instance, the motor of the QX60 (Left Photo) produces 295 horsepower at 6,400 RPMs, and it is also responsible for 270 pounds-feet of torque at 4,800 revolutions per minute.

Next up is the 3.5L engine of the 2023 MDX. It will provide the driver with 290 horsepower at 6,200 RPMs and 267 pounds-feet of torque at 4,700 RPMs. Hence, as we said earlier, the numbers are very similar.

Are The QX60 & MDX SUVs Fuel-Efficient?

It’s no secret that gas prices are high these days. They may not be quite as steep as they once were, but they’re still high. According to USA Facts, for the week of October 3, 2022, the average price of a gallon of gas was $3.68 in the U.S. The point is that if you want to purchase a new vehicle, it is in your best interest to ensure that it is fuel-efficient because there’s no telling when the prices at the pump could skyrocket again.

The 2023 Acura MDX and INFINITI QX60 are good choices when your primary concern is fuel economy. The latter has a slight edge with an estimated 21 city, 21 highway, and 23 combined miles to the gallon. However, the MDX is not a slouch in this area. It gets an estimated 19 city, 26 highway, and 22 combined miles per gallon.

How’s The Cargo Space?

Both of these models provide owners with room to carry groceries, sports gear, and more. The MDX has a bit more cargo space with 18.1 cubic feet. Yet, the 2023 QX60 still holds plenty with 14.5 cubic feet of storage space. But if more is what you’re after in this capacity, the MDX could be the better alternative.

Which Vehicle Should You Select?

The 2023 INFINITI QX60 should give you the most bang for your buck. Take our word for it, stop by for a test drive and watch as the QX60 surpasses your expectations in every way imaginable.
