INFINITI QX65 recognized by Newsweek as one of 2026’s most anticipated new vehicles

INFINITI QX65 has earned a place on Newsweek’s Most Anticipated New Vehicles of 2026 for the U.S. and Canada, underscoring the brand’s momentum as it accelerates a deliberate, multi-year product plan and redefines its place in the luxury market.

Previewed by the QX65 Monograph concept, INFINITI’s all-new nameplate expands its lineup into the two-row, midsize segment. The Monograph channels the pioneering spirit of the iconic FX with a fastback roofline, sculpted horizontal theme lines and crafted details that express motion and elegance. From its powerful grille texture to twisted wheel spokes and aircraft-inspired taillights, the concept blends heritage with forward-looking innovation – confident, human and unapologetically INFINITI.

“The all-new QX65 signals where INFINITI is headed – a confident, distinctive future,” said Tiago Castro, vice president, INFINITI Americas. “We’re executing a focused product plan, expanding our lineup with purpose and delivering vehicles that reflect bold design and thoughtful hospitality – this recognition affirms the excitement we’re seeing.”

QX65 will be manufactured in Smyrna, Tenn. When it arrives in early summer 2026, QX65 will serve clients who want a vehicle that reflects their personality and supports their lifestyle with expert craftsmanship, refined comfort and intuitive technology.

Why this product matters

SUVs continue to anchor luxury-market demand. Industry reporting from S&P Global Mobility and Cox Automotive consistently shows SUVs representing the largest share of luxury retail volume, with midsize premium crossovers especially influential in shaping client purchase behavior¹. This reinforces the strategic importance of QX65 as INFINITI expands its lineup to meet evolving expectations for expressive design, elevated utility and modern luxury experiences.
