The most comfortable and reliable car you can buy.
We have had no problems at all and we have almost 40000 miles on it. Most reliable car we have had. The warranty is great. Although we haven't used it for anything because it's made so well. It stops on a dime is fun to drive. I have a lot of back issues and I literally have to purchase vehicles with comfort of seats in mind. This cars seats are comfortable for long trips plenty of leg room and plenty of extra gadgets in it.

This is a sporty vehicle with streamlined look.
The rear wheel drive qx70 is engaging to drive. There's not much body lean as the qx70 corners, and a stiff suspension helps handling, too. A 325 hp v6 engine mated to a seven speed automatic transmission power this car. The engine serves up ample power and acceleration in most driving situations.

Buy 2017 Infiniti is great. Spacious and I have enough room to fit everything in. The performance is outstanding give it five stars. And a luxury is amazing is a good comfortable car and I haven't had a problem out of it since I hit it and I had it almost 2 years.

Comfortable, spacious, and luxurious all rolled into one great vehicle.
Overall I really love the vehicle. It is comfortable and spacious. The features like heated seats and a heated steering wheel are life savers in NY when it gets cold. The fact that I do not have to take my key out to unlock the car is helpful when my arms are full, like when I am carrying groceries. One complaint is the key battery dies or sometimes does not connect with the car so when I try and start it an error will pop up on the dashboard saying key not detected.

Its trim is amazing and also the steering control.
I love my car it is a very nice car. I have had it for about 1 year now and love it. I hope you will choose and infinity as your car its the best. The steering control is amazing and doesn't pull certain ways. Also it is a very safe car if you have children or riding with someone else.

I LIKE THE LOOK! BUT THERE ARE ISSUES!
I love my 17’ QX70 S this is my 3rd. I’ve owned 03, 07 & now 17. My major complaint is the 7speed trans shifts into high gear way to soon. It should stay in a lower gear when driving 40mph but it goes into high gear! NO GOOD! The company doesn’t care to fix this. I also have a issue that by purchasing a S (sport model) I should’ve got the big brakes that’s used on there sports cars. Oh one more thing for a $60,000 car it should’ve come with blind spot warning on the side view mirrors. IT DOESNT!!!! To me that’s a safety issue that INFINITI doesn’t care about. It’s on they’re other cars. I see on f$&ken much less expensive cars. NO EXCUSE!!!! But I do like the look of the car and I’ve done some upgrades.

Beauty that's a Beast
I recently purchased my 2017 QX70. So far it's been a dream. Style, power and comfort. Its a shame that Infinity discontinued this model. I'll be holding onto this beauty for many years to come, I've named her Sue Ellen.

Pros from Owners

likeFilled Matthew D.

The car drives smoothly and accelerates quickly. The interior is nice with leather seats and Bose sound system. It is spacious enough for four adults to fit comfortably and control front & rear temperatures. The trunk space is nice with the option to put down the back two seats to carry larger items. The trunk space is large enough to carry three to four large checked bags as well as a couple of backpacks.

Cons from Owners

dislikeFilled Matthew D.

There is no Bluetooth radio which you may expect of any luxury car from 2017. The vehicle takes premium gasoline which means you can rack up gas cost relatively quickly. I believe the AWD model does come with a Bluetooth option and I assumed the RWD would as well. The trunk is automatic which is great but it also means the motor will need to be replaced from time to time. This should be factored into the cost of maintenance.
