First Take
The QX4 is an upscale version of the Nissan Pathfinder. Until 2001, its prime selling point was its selectable full-time four-wheel-drive system. Now that the Pathfinder LE offers the same system, the QX4's premium sticker is more difficult to justify. The Infiniti does feature a more opulent cabin and offer a version of the Q45's "intelligent" laser-operated cruise control, which can adjust vehicle speed to maintain an appropriate distance from the car ahead. Still, modest cargo space and load capacity limit this SUV's usefulness, and the rear seat isn't particularly comfortable. Ride quality deteriorates quickly with passengers aboard, and handling, while secure, isn't all that impressive. Interior fit and finish are laudable.

Owner Reports

Owner Satisfaction Owner Satisfaction To learn about satisfaction, CR has collected survey data from our annual survey on more than half a million vehicles. Our subscribers provide great insights into their satisfaction by answering one simple question: If they had it to do all over again, would they definitely buy or lease the same model? In addition, respondents also rate their cars in six categories: driving experience, comfort, value, styling, audio, and climate systems. NA indicates that we did not receive a large enough sample size to provide data for a specific year. An X indicates that the vehicle was not manufactured for a specific year.
