2011 Infiniti QX56

摘要

Name-brand devotees of the gargantuan-size luxury-ute class are missing out. Sure, the Cadillac Escalade has the chrome-tastic appeal and pop culture status to keep units of the nearly 6000-pound SUV moving out of dealerships, but many wealthy buyers might not realize what other gems exist in the stratospheric $60,000-$100,000, seven-to-eight-passenger luxury-SUV class. Take, for example, the Infiniti QX56, a sport/ utility that has become one of the brand's top-selling items, behind the G sedan and coupe cars, but ahead of far more affordable entries like the EX and FX SUVs, not to mention the M sedan. After 30,000 miles of road trips, stop-and-go traffic, and parking lots seemingly made for vehicles half the QX56's size, it's clear: Those who actually cross-shop the Cadillac with the Infiniti will have a tough decision to make.
