Just got ours in Ottawa… great SUVLast night I had the pleasure of seeing in person the new qx60 autograph at the new car show in Buffalo, NY. The new qx is stunning in person. The styling still carries some of the previous qx (grille, wheels for example) and brings in some modern styling in the belt line areas. The roof rails are very low in the roof. Wheels fit in the wheel wells nicely, no more wierd offset under the fender. The interior is fantastic. Captains chairs in 2nd row with a removable console..... love love love. The drivers area resembles a little bit more of a cockpit. Massaging seats, for the driver and passenger. Controls on dash, media screen all angled for the driver to have optimal use. The media center has Android auto and Apple car play. The roof finally has a panoramic glass. The cvt transmission has been replaced with a 9 speed unit. All the driver assists are there, lane keep, adaptive cruise, blindspot. And they finally added enough features and styling cues to really separate it from the pathfinder. Really impressive unit, I was thrilled it was there. And the price point....65k fully loaded. Great job infiniti. The only drawback.... they parked it next to a gorgeous black metallic qx55, which are near impossible to get and were produced on a limited production.

Yup but… now after driving in the salt and snow, it’s just Blue lol… The wife love the smart mirror, me, I am having problem when first do the flip while driving my brain and my eyes need a couple sec to adjust to the new view… could be just me or I am getting old I guess …Congrats!

A friend of mine has the smart rear view mirror in her car...she loves it. She said it gives her a much wider view! I also have read on forums that other people talked about the need for their focus/eyes to adjust to the smart rear view mirror...but they eventually got used to it!Yup but… now after driving in the salt and snow, it’s just Blue lol… The wife love the smart mirror, me, I am having problem when first do the flip while driving my brain and my eyes need a couple sec to adjust to the new view… could be just me or I am getting old I guess …
Works great! Just need to keep moving the steering once in a while and show that you re still paying attention!Have you had a chance to try lane keeping assist? Does it really keep you centered in the lane? My current car (Lincoln) bounces from one side to the other, instead of centering.

Wonderful, now just need to find one locally. Thanks for the answer. Have fun with yours....Works great! Just need to keep moving the steering once in a while and show that you re still paying attention!
There is lane keeping assistance and lane centering assist. Two different systems that are often confused.Have you had a chance to try lane keeping assist? Does it really keep you centered in the lane? My current car (Lincoln) bounces from one side to the other, instead of centering.
Thanks for the info. Food for thought and research!There is lane keeping assistance and lane centering assist. Two different systems that are often confused.
Lane keeping assistance keeps you from crossing the center line, or from running off the road. Most Lane Keeping assist systems use differential braking to veer the car back to the center. My 2014 QX60 has this system. It is useful on long interstate drives when you find yourself getting velocitized. It is not the same as Lane Centering Assist (auto steering/auto pilot), you still have steer with a lane keeping assist system. If you use lane keeping assist as an auto pilot, it will jerk from one side of the road to the other using differential braking (brakes are automatically applied to one side of the car to veer the vehicle back in that direction). This not what it's designed for, and in addition to making your passengers sick it will prematurely wear out your brakes if you try and use it for auto steering.
Lane centering assist, or auto steering, uses two stereo cameras (for depth perception) and the power steering system to actually steer the car and keep it centered in the lane, even around curves. My wife's car has this system. When I'm using it, it feels like the car is pulling left or right as required to keep it centered in the lane. It also follows the car in front if the lane lines are obscured. These systems will actually steer the car in auto pilot for 15-20 seconds before you have to put your hands back on the wheel. The system will sense when your hands are present on the steering wheel, usually by sensing if you're applying some resistance to the auto steering inputs.
A lot of cars now a days have lane keeping assist, but lane centering is not as common. Make sure you know what system you have.

Thanks for posting your pictures. Very nice. I noticed you have aftermarket tires and wheels. Can you tell me what size tires and wheels your running? If they're a different size than OEM, are the rubbing or have other issues? I just drove mine home from the dealer and would love to put a wider tire/wheel on it. Thanks!
I have the same vehicle. Same color too. I picked it up Wednesday. When pulling into my garage I get an audible alarm as it gets very close to the wall in front of the vehicle, but I don't have the confidence to test if it stops before hitting the wall. How are you testing it?Hi - just picked up my 2022 QX60 Autograph (wanted Sensory but the wait was unknown) - very nice looking. Less than 80 miles on the car -- and have an issue that I hope one of you might have some insight. The Front Emergency Braking (FEB) does not work - the car doesn't show any errors - just doesn't work. The blind spot and lane departure work. The backup braking works. The car does brake when using cruise control - just not in standard driving mode. I have contacted the dealership - no clue - and went to another dealer and test drove with a service manager - no clue either. (the car is so new so I can't really blame them). I haven't had the car hooked up for diagnostics yet - just wondering if I got a 'bad' one? Anyone else have this issue? (I had a JX35 for 9+ years). Anyone want to buy a Moonlight Blue/Black Autograph! 😞
Thanks - much appreciate - as there aren't many out there to inquire against - it should be pretty obvious when it works based on past experience - even if you are slowly approaching a car in front of you - but hopefully, as you said, you won't have the need. I'll update as I learn more as well.I just reviewed the Owners Manual on the FEB functionality. I don't think I've ever seen so many limiting conditions on a feature like this. I guess I'll hope it works if I need it, but like the air bags, hopefully I'll never use it. However, you've got me intrigued. I'll repost if I figure out how to test it, or if it activates in a real world scenario.
A few thoughts…… Front Emergency Braking (FEB) does not work…
