Please forgive me if this has been discussed ad nauseam (I've searched and searched online to no avail), but I'm trying to find the GVWR (gross weight) of the 2014 QX60 Hybrid.

I'm looking to purchase a new car though my business, but it needs to be over 6000 lbs. to qualify for the Section 179 tax deduction.

I'd really, really, really appreciate it if anyone can provide information on this.

I've looked everywhere and can't find it.

Thanks!!!

The QX60 gas model is 5985 GVWR. With this being said, I would assume the Hybrid is heavier. I will try and find the GVWR for the Hybrid in the meantime.

The only thing I can find on the Hybrid is curb weight, but I don't think that will help you. If so, let me know and I will keep a look out for GVWR.

Thanks Matt- appreciate the help.

We really like the QX60... we're looking at the GMC Acadia and Volvo XC90, which both qualify since they are over 6000 lbs.

But these two cars don't hold a candle compared to the Infiniti. I'd love to own this car!

Well, after hours of research, I found this-

I own a 2014 QX60 AWD hybrid.

The GVWR listed on the driver side B-pillar placard is 2722 kg, 6000 lbs

In case you are curious, here are the all the specs:

GVWR = 6000 lbs
GAWR FR = 2963 lbs
GAWR RR = 3298 lbs

Rooster-

Where did you get that information? I'll need to provide documentation to my CPA.

Thanks!!!!

 

[Rooster]

From the actual placard on the vehicle, it is located on the B-pillar between the driver front door, and driver side rear passenger door.

Made my day.

Made my day.

Is the rule 6000 lbs or more, or > 6000 lbs? The GVWR is exactly 6000 lbs.

6K or more. I just went by the local dealer in Charlotte and looked at them. The rep is going to confirm the GVWR of the Hybrid.

But I gotta say... dayum, the QX60 is sweet. She's a beaut!

You should be all set then, my QX60 is a 2014 all wheel drive Hybrid with 55R20 tires. The placard on the vehicle is the legal GVWR for documentation purposes, and that is where my info came from. I have photo of the placard, but it also lists my VIN.

If you end up purchasing one, please let me know what kind of deal you reach as I am near Greensboro and am considering the QX60.


There are only 6 Infiniti dealerships in NC and the ones in Greensboro & Winston-Salem are owned by the same owners (Modern Infiniti) and the ones in Apex & Raleigh are owned by Crossroads Infiniti. So really, there is only 4 choices. I am really surprised there are no dealers east of Raleigh. With what some on here have indicated they were able to negotiate, I would hope to get at least $5K or more off the MSRP. Thanks.

It looks like the Section 179 deduction technically applies to vehicles OVER 6000 lbs, so the QX60 is out of the picture.

I can't believe they'd couldn't make it one pound heavier.
