The 2022 QX50 adds more standard features and updated visual options. Every model now comes with wireless Apple CarPlay and Infiniti's suite of driver assists. The latter includes adaptive cruise control, blind-spot monitoring, and lane-keeping assist. Along with a newly available appearance package, select trim levels receive interior enhancements.

Pros
Handsome on the outside and the inside,
lots of room for people and cargo,
very comfy front seats.

Cons
Innovative engine has ordinary traits,
transmission contributes to noisiness,
unintuitive infotainment layout.
