The Performance Story of the 2027 Infiniti QX65

Can a fastback-styled luxury SUV actually perform, or is the silhouette just for show? The 2027 INFINITI QX65 answers with a turbocharged engine, standard all-wheel drive and the kind of capability that goes beyond typical city driving. This look at the 2027 INFINITI QX65 performance features shows exactly what backs up that sleek exterior.

VC-Turbo Brings the Muscle

At the heart of the 2027 INFINITI QX65 is a 2.0-litre VC-Turbo four-cylinder engine producing 268 horsepower and 286 lb-ft of torque. Variable Compression Turbo technology is designed to adjust how the engine operates based on driving demands, balancing stronger response when you want it with efficiency during easier cruising. Power is delivered through a 9-speed automatic transmission, giving the QX65 a setup built for smooth, confident acceleration.

AWD Comes Standard

Canadian roads can change their personality pretty quickly. That is why Intelligent All-Wheel Drive comes standard on the 2027 INFINITI QX65. The system can distribute power where it is needed to help maintain traction, giving drivers added confidence through changing road and weather conditions.

Six Thousand Pounds Changes the Conversation

Here is where the QX65 adds some serious practicality to its sporty character. Properly equipped, it can tow up to 6,000 pounds. A dedicated Tow Mode adjusts vehicle behaviour when hauling, while available Trailer Sway Control can help manage unwanted trailer movement. That gives the QX65 useful capability for bringing recreational equipment along without moving into a larger three-row SUV.

Drive Modes Match the Moment

Selectable drive modes let the 2027 INFINITI QX65 adapt its responses to different situations. Rather than locking drivers into one personality, the system gives them more control over how the SUV behaves depending on the road and journey ahead.
