$50,200 · Crossover

$71,250 · Wagon

Comparison Overview

The big question when choosing between the 2025 INFINITI QX60 and the 2025 Volvo V60 boils down to prioritizing size and traditional SUV comfort versus performance and efficiency in a smaller package. The QX60 starts at a significantly lower MSRP of $50,200, offering three rows of seating in its 198.2-inch body, but it lags in efficiency with a combined 24 MPG and requires premium fuel. Conversely, the premium-priced V60, retailing for $71,250, packs a massive 455 hp punch, vastly outclassing the QX60's 268 hp, and delivers a superior combined 31 MPG, partly thanks to its 40-mile electric range. While the QX60 is taller at 69.7 inches, the V60 offers more usable space for gear with 25.5 cu ft of cargo capacity compared to the QX60's 14.5 cu ft, creating a clear trade-off between entry cost/size and performance/running costs.
