2023 INFINITI QX55 / 2023 Acura RDX Comparison

2023 INFINITI QX55 Compared to the 2023 Acura RDX 

The unique crossover coupe body style of the 2023 INFINITI QX55 is just one element of many that help set the luxurious family cruiser apart from the competition. Dynamic performance with standard AWD handling makes the INFINITI a more than capable everyday vehicle to take around town or the highway throughout the year in Colorado. The interior of the crossover is also well-equipped for peak comfort and immersion. When compared to other luxury-minded crossovers like the 2023 Acura RDX, the personality of the QX55 is exemplified.  

Performance 

• Comparable Powertrains in Both Crossovers 
• The INFINITI is Equipped with Standard AWD Compared to the FWD in the Acura 

Propelled by a VC-Turbo four-cylinder engine, the 2023 INFINITI QX55 delivers a satisfying 268 horsepower to whatever city or highway the driver wants to take their luxurious crossover coupe on. Meanwhile, the 2023 Acura RDX is equipped with a comparable turbocharged 2.0L four-cylinder engine that generates 272 horsepower. A significant advantage in favor of the 2023 QX55 is that it comes with standard AWD handling while the 2023 RDX is equipped with a standard FWD platform. Although the RDX has AWD available, the fact that every INFINITI has the improved handling proficiency gives it the edge in terms of value. Even with a standard AWD platform equipped, the INFINITI is comparable to the Acura when it comes to efficiency.  

Interior Features 

• Interiors Boasting High-End Materials  
• Variety of All-Season Comfort Amenities in Both Crossovers 
• Comprehensive Infotainment Options for the INFINITI & the Acura 

Given their more luxurious nature, both the 2023 INFINITI QX55 and the 2023 Acura RDX feature higher-end materials to help separate themselves from the more conventional crossovers on the market in the Denver Metro region. Both vehicles also share welcome amenities that can be used to keep the cabin comfortable all throughout the year. This includes having standard heated front seating to make winter cruising in either family cruiser more enjoyable. They also include a wide variety of infotainment amenities to cater to the modern needs of a Colorado family. With various smartphone connection applications and integrated Wi-Fi® hotspots in both vehicles, any passenger in either vehicle will appreciate all the interactivity and convenience available to them through their journey. HD Radio™ and SiriusXM® radio capability greatly diversify the entertainment opportunities in every version of both family cruisers.  

Safety Features 

• Standard AWD Offers More Reliable All-Season Maneuverability in the INFINITI 
• Both Vehicles Share Selection of Standard Driver-Assistance Features for Everyday Cruising 

Thanks to the AWD platform that every version of the 2023 INFINITI QX55 comes equipped with, the driver of the luxury crossover coupe will find navigating Colorado in any weather to be a much more confident experience than with the FWD platform of the Acura. Both vehicles offer a selection of driver-assistance features in every iteration of their models to help drivers in everyday busy traffic stay safe while handling the more hectic nature of the drive. The road in front of both vehicles is protected with respective versions of Automatic Emergency Braking and Forward Collision Warning technology, while Blind Spot Monitoring and Rear Cross-Traffic Alert do the same for the road behind the INFINITI and Acura.
