2023 INFINITI QX60 vs. 2023 Acura MDX: Exterior

Beautifully crafted to command attention, the 2023 INFINITI QX60 and 2023 Acura MDX both stand out on the road. The muscular QX60 boasts a larger-looking grille than the MDX, but the two are comparatively speaking very similar in overall size — each measuring just over 198 inches long. Standard LED lighting, available motion-activated liftgate, and a panoramic moonroof adorn both models. However, the Acura comes with LED fog lights and the INFINITI with available adaptive front lighting, rain-sensing windshield wipers, and an available Obsidian Black contrast roof.

2023 INFINITI QX60 vs. 2023 Acura MDX: Specs

The INFINITI QX60 and Acura MDX are both powered by a standard 3.5L V6 engine. The MDX Type S is also available with a 3.0L turbo V6. The standard powertrain in the INFINITI SUV makes slightly more horsepower and torque than the standard engine in the MDX, and operates with slightly better fuel economy around town than the Acura. The INFINITI QX60 can also out-tow the MDX by 1,000 pounds.

Equip either model with all-wheel drive (AWD) — intelligent AWD in the QX60 or Super Handling All-Wheel Drive™ in the MDX. A drive mode selector with Sport, Standard, Eco, Snow, and Personal modes give you further control over the performance in the INFINITI QX60.
