Infiniti QX70 First Drive
Introduction
The aging but still worthy QX70 stands out with bold styling, an eager powertrain, and responsive handling. We tested it when it was still called the FX and had the 3.5-liter V6, which got 18-mpg overall. Since then, the engine was upgraded to a 3.7-liter V6. Body roll is well-suppressed, although the QX70 isn't exactly agile, and it rides rather stiffly. The roomy cabin is well-finished and mostly quiet, except for the loud engine. But the curvy styling hurts visibility and robs cargo space. A wide array of optional safety features includes autonomous braking and forward-collision warning. The useful surround-view camera system gives a bird's-eye view while parking.
