Infiniti is introducing a longer, more refined QX50 for the 2016 model year and confirmed that pricing for the vehicle will start at just $35,445, including a $995 destination charge. That represents a saving of $550 compared to the previous model year, a deal made all the more impressive when you consider that the 2016 model is loaded with even more standard goodies.

Keeping things simple is a single powertrain, which in this case is a 3.7-liter V-6 with 325 horsepower and 267 pound-feet of torque. And there’s only one transmission to choose from, a seven-speed automatic, but you can choose between standard rear-wheel drive and available all-wheel drive.
The $35,445 starting price is for the rear-wheel-drive model. For an additional $1,400, you get the option of all-wheel drive.
