The QX60 is a smooth operator. It has ample power for all situations, and we’d say the powertrain is quieter, smoother, and more responsive than most. The ride is soft and smooth overall normal paved surfaces, and potholes are sucked up without any drama. Handling is quite nice for a large 3-row SUV.
Android Auto and Apple CarPlay are included, but they are wired. We had some dropped connections, and the vehicle was very picky about what cable would work. Even with a new cable, it had trouble staying connected to our Samsung Galaxy S24.
