The 2022 Infiniti lineup witnessed some intriguing changes that might make this Japanese auto brand an irresistible option in the luxury car segment. And for its 2022 lineup, Infiniti introduced a new nameplate, the QX55.
Call it the sloped QX50; the all-new 2022 QX55 is based on Infiniti’s QX50. This small luxury crossover sports a sloping roofline that gives it a sportier and coupe-like look than the QX50. Although this swoopy compact luxury SUV prioritizes design over practicality, but still offers the same powertrain and suspension as the QX50. However, its powertrain is tuned to provide a smoother ride and maximize fuel efficiency.
Looking for a stylish and luxury SUV to lease from Infiniti? You can never go wrong with the 2022 Infiniti QX55 lease deal. This small luxury SUV affords a more striking appeal than its traditionally styled sibling. But of course, this will come at a higher price.
Engine And Performance
Infiniti packs the familiar variable-compression turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder (VC-Turbo) with 268 hp and 280 lb-ft of torque under the hood of all 2022 QX55 models. This same VC-Turbo engine is similar to that of QX50 and pairs with a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT) and standard all-wheel drive, just like the QX50.
While this VC-Turbo engine may not be the best powertrain in the all-new QX55 class, it offers competitive performance figures and confidently pushes the QX55. And though the 2022 QX55 drives good around the city, it’s not exceptional around highways. While doing fine jobs absorbing larger bumps and dips in the road, its soft suspension still lets smaller cracks escape to the cabin. This Infiniti’s steering is okay, but we wish it could be more responsive. All in all, this luxury compact SUV is great for everyday driving.
Fuel Economy
According to the EPA, the 2022 QX55 will return an estimated fuel economy number of 22 mpg in the city and 28 mpg on the highway. Considering what you can get from other luxury compact SUVs, these are some decent ratings.
Interior
Call it a deja vu, everything inside the all-new QX55 looks and feels like the QX50. Infiniti carried over the stylish and rich interior of the QX50, stashed it into the QX55, and gave it a simple yet dashing look. The interior of the 2022 QX55 is outfitted with premium cabin materials—soft-touch plastics, supple upholstery, and wood trim. Also, there’s Infiniti’s InTouch infotainment system—a split-screen infotainment system that features an 8-inch display screen above a 7-inch touchscreen, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto.
Thanks to its chopped roof styling, cargo space is not as much as you can get in the QX50. Nevertheless, this two-row luxury SUV with five seats affords plush and roomy front seats and nicely cushioned back seats.
Safety
Some of the standard driver-assist features in the all-new 2022 QX55 includes,
- Automatic emergency braking
- Automatic high-beam headlights
- Blind-spot monitoring
- Forward collision warning
- Rearview camera
- Lane departure warning
- Rear parking sensors
- Rear cross-traffic alert
- Pedestrian detection
The 2022 Infiniti QX55 comes with sleek styling, a roomy cabin, loads of standard features, and a pocket-friendly price tag, compared to some alternatives in its class to make it a more appealing lease option.
