Infiniti QX First Drive
Introduction
Infiniti's version of the Nissan Armada costs about $10,000 more and brings a more-luxurious interior with a standard navigation system. The 5.6-liter V8 in our tested Armada was smooth and powerful, linked to a slick five-speed automatic. Overall fuel economy of 13 mpg is dismal. Both feature an independent rear suspension, and handling is responsive for vehicles this large and tall. The ride was stiff, and engine noise was pronounced. The interior is spacious, but the third-row seat is small. Power-folding rear seats are standard.
