TCC’s Bottom Line

The 2022 Infiniti QX60 Autograph tops the lineup, but the technology upgrades need more differentiation from the Pathfinder. The 2022 Lexus RX seeks a luxury-crossover edge with an eye-grabbing shape, but performance toes the usual line.

TCC Likes

  • Posh interior
  • Excellent second-row seat functionality
  • 6000-lb towing capacity

  • Efficient hybrid
  • F Sport shines inside and out
  • Comfy for five

TCC Dislikes

  • Limited to one powertrain
  • Tech similar to Pathfinder
  • Captain’s chairs limited to Autograph

  • Edgy doesn’t always endure
  • Useless third row
  • Getting expensive
