2022 Porsche Macan vs. 2022 INFINITI QX60

The 2022 INFINITI QX60 is a stunning sport utility vehicle with a gleaming exterior, spacious interior, and smooth shifting 9 speed automatic. But is it good enough to go toe to toe with the 2022 Porsche Macan, an SUV which has received acclaim for its excellent handling, gorgeous appearance and lavish cabin?

Design & Style

The Porsche Macan is so versatile that you can race it against many automobiles (and win) then drive to the local supermarket with the family to pick up groceries. All-wheel drive is now available as a standardized feature, and you can also get summer tires along with a rotor that is coated in tungsten carbide. It is so well designed that it received the coveted Editor’s Choice award.

The INFINITI QX60 is a moderately sized SUV that offers 3 row seating. The interior has been revised to provide greater opulence, and beneath the hood it has a robust powertrain which offers stellar performance. It can seat a maximum of seven passengers in seats which are plush, comfortable and will remain that way even during cross country trips.

Technology & Safety

The INFINITI QX60 comes with all sorts of countermeasures designed to protect its passengers. These include frontal impact alerts, lane management, automated emergency brakes, semi-autonomous operation and cruise control that are adaptive.  Luxuries within its cabin include a Bose sound system with seventeen speakers, wifi, and twelve inch touch display with leather upholstery.

The Porsche Macan is equipped with every driver assistance feature found in the INFINITI, including lane departure notifications, cruise control that is adaptive, emergency automated brakes and multiple airbags. Luxuries within its cabin include multizone climate control, twelve volt outlets, USB ports, wifi and Apple CarPlay. The seats can be cooled during summer and heated during winter to provide maximum comfort.

Performance

Those that desire ultra-performance will purchase the Porsche Macan GTS, which has a dual turbo V6 engine that can generate 434 horsepower with the ability to accelerate from zero to sixty in about 3.5 seconds. Those that purchase the INFINITI QX60 will also get a V6, but it can only generate 295 horsepower and it takes 6.7 seconds to accelerate from zero to sixty.

The Bottom Line

Though the INFINITI QX60 can seat more passengers, it is no match for the Porsche. Aside from the fact that the Macan has much better horsepower and zero to sixty acceleration, the QX60’s handling is stiff when purchased with twenty inch wheels, its V6 sounds unpleasant particularly during higher revs, and it still doesn’t offer Android Auto wireless, which makes the Porsche Macan the winner.
