2026 Infiniti QX60 Arrives With A Substantial Price Bump
Infiniti has revealed the refreshed-for-2026 QX60 lineup, which gains a new Sport trim to replace the Sensory model from last year. More than just a name change, the Sport also adds Dark Blue upholstery, a black headliner, dark exterior accents, an S badge on the tailgate, and unique gloss black 20-inch wheels. The entire lineup now features a redesigned grille inspired by a bamboo forest, an illuminated Infiniti emblem, and restyled daytime running lights, the origins of which can be traced back to the full-size QX80. The rear fascia has also been mildly resculpted, and new wheels are available on every trim, including the base Pure, which now costs $51,200, which is exactly $1,000 up from the pricing announced nearly a year ago for the 2025 model. The shipping and handling fee remains unchanged at $1,350. The QX60 Pure offers 20-inch wheels, newly standard dual 12.3-inch displays with Google built-in, wireless phone charging, and five USB-C ports. Under the hood, a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder delivers 268 horsepower and 286 lb-ft of torque, and when properly equipped, Infiniti claims a tow rating of 6,000 pounds for all trims. Adding AWD adds $2,000 to the price. Next up is the Luxe trim, starting $56,800 as standard and $58,800 with AWD, meaning its price is unchanged for 2026. This gets a 3D surround view monitor with Mobile Object Detection, a new feature for 2026. The Luxe also boasts a 16-speaker sound system from Klipsch, climate-controlled front seats, and heating for the second row. The Sport gets AWD as standard and starts at $61,700. When the Sensory trim could still be ordered without AWD, it started at $59,100, so this represents an increase of $2,600. Fortunately, the range-topping Autograph variant - with massaging front seats, a 20-speaker Klipsch Reference Premiere sound system, semi-aniline quilted leather, a color head-up display, a two-tone roof, and black open-pore ash wood trim with metal inlays - starts at $66,150, the same as it cost last year. After Infiniti culled its most affordable SUVs last year, the QX50 and QX55, the QX60 is the entry point to ownership, but that may soon change. A report from Automotive News last month indicated that Nissan is preparing a new compact crossover under the internal codename i33C. Unconfirmed reports indicate that this will form the basis of the next Nissan Rogue and that Infiniti will piggyback with something similar. This is expected to be either a mild-hybrid or a plug-in hybrid, and in Infiniti guise, it'll have more upmarket appointments and technology. If these reports are accurate, we expect to see the production version arrive in 2027. Copyright 2025 The Arena Group, Inc. All Rights Reserved.

Some of our favorite speakers just got a Jurassic World makeover — how to win a pair for free
The Jurassic Park franchise is about to enter a new era. Jurassic World Rebirth is only in theaters July 2, and Klipsch, one of our favorite speaker brands, has released an exclusive pair of speakers to mark the occasion. The best part? They're giving them away! Check out how you can win a pair of Klipsch speakers with a red and black Jurassic World Rebirth pattern below. We've given the base model of these speakers high praise in the past, so this isn't an opportunity you'll want to pass up. How to enter Klipsch The Sevens speakers — channeling the prehistoric This exclusive Jurassic World Rebirth release is a reskin of Klipsch's The Sevens speakers. We've been impressed by The Sevens in the past, even without the nostalgic Jurassic Park t-rex on the side. In our roundup of the best speakers for 2025, The Sevens scored the fifth spot. We praised their top-notch design, generous inputs, and adjustable EQ. We gave The Sevens a 4 out of 5 star review, calling them 'simply awesome' for people who value 'big, powerful stereo sound.' The Sevens sport 200 watts (400 peak) of volume, so any living room or home theater will be filled with sound. The Sevens are part of a larger Heritage Wireless Room Speaker line from Klipsch, which also includes The Fives and The Nines. The full line has incredible sound. They are designed to be full soundbar replacements, so you don't need a separate subwoofer for your stereo or home theater setup (although you absolutely can connect a subwoofer if you want). They have an integrated phono pre-amp, meaning you can connect an older record player without the need of a pre-amp or stereo. Skip the stereo entirely with The Seven's Bluetooth capabilities. Our review also commended Klipsch for including virtually every input you could want, from HDMI-ARC to RCA. Adding to the whole package is the new Jurassic World Rebirth design, which looks like the UI you might see in Jurassic Park's control room. Whether you're a fan of the original trilogy, the Jurassic World trilogy, or just stoked for the new movie, the classic logo will pull you back into the world of man vs. dinosaur. Make sure to join the giveaway by July 23, 2025.

Test-Driving The 2025 Nissan Armada
The first Armada hit dealerships when George W. was President and Facebook had just launched, not to rub its age in. It's still the poster child for when people talk about dinosaur-sized SUVs in a positive or negative way. Featuring an unmistakably rugged design, the first-ever Armada PRO-4X — the most capable in model ... More history — tackles the toughest terrains with effortless capability. But fan or foe, the handsome, redesigned 2025 Arvada does what it does very well, and if your aim is a sublime, smooth ride, this is it. It's also gotten one of the most radical and smart-looking overhauls it's ever had this year. Visually, the 2025 Armada is more modern and squared-off than before, and the result is a plush-looking big guy, 'big' meaning 209.6 inches long and over 83 inches wide, with all the presence you can imagine. Curb weight ranges from about 5,677 to just under 5,900 pounds, depending on trim and options. It features new LED lighting, a tall, upright grille, and more sculpted sheet metal by the acre. 2025 Nissan Armada Pro-X Cockpit The interior gets a massive ramp-up with the redesign. Go for the top trims and you'll get quilted leather seats, contrast stitching, massaging front seats and a panoramic sunroof. Second-row captain's chairs are optional and will drop seating from eight to seven, but even the third row can fit (not-large) adults on short trips. The fit and finish are much improved over prior models, with soft-touch surfaces throughout. 2025 Nissan Armada Techwise, Nissan's leveled up with front and center twin 14.3-inch displays - one for the digital gauge cluster and one for infotainment. Google Built-In is included, bringing you native Maps, Assistant and Play Store functionality. There's also a rich-sounding Klipsch 12-speaker premium audio system as well as a wireless phone charger and multiple USB-C ports scattered throughout the cabin. A built-in dash cam, trailer brake controller and up to seven drive modes are available. 2025 Nissan Armada Under the hood, that new V6 delivers strong numbers but don't expect a hybrid or electric version just yet. Fuel economy is rated at 16 mpg city and 20 mpg highway in 2WD models, but it's a slight improvement over the previous V8's figures and real-world drivers are reporting closer to 17–18 mpg combined. Available trims are the SV, SL, Platinum, PRO-4X and my tester, the Platinum Reserve. Check them all out here. Nissan On the road, the Armada pulls like a freight train and it takes some getting used to, but even a small or short person can handle it just fine. Acceleration is sweetly effortless and merging onto the highway feels more like a sport sedan than a lumbering SUV. Brakes are strong as well as easy to modulate - you don't need a heavy foot. 2025 Nissan Armada Handling is still truck-like but body roll is controlled and steering is light, making it ideal for long-distance or cross-country cruising. Ride comfort is excellent. It's a pleasure to drive and can feel like a nice sanctuary during inclement weather or when you've had it up to here with people and just want a lovely drive with a great sound system. Nissan includes Safety Shield 360 as standard, bringing automatic emergency braking, blind spot monitoring, lane departure warning and more. It has earned the IIHS Top Safety Pick+ designation, making it one of the safest choices in its class. The new infotainment system can lag occasionally. Also, while the Armada is huge inside, its cargo space behind the third row still trails some rivals. Conclusion: For fans of heavy, mighty-mighty vehicles, it really doesn't get much better.

To learn more about their products or to find an authorized dealer near you, visit and About Jurassic World Rebirth A new era is born. This summer, three years after the Jurassic World trilogy concluded with each film surpassing $1 billion at the global box office, the enduring Jurassic series evolves in an ingenious new direction with Jurassic World Rebirth. Anchored by iconic action superstar Scarlett Johansson, Emmy and SAG nominee Jonathan Bailey and two-time Oscar® winner Mahershala Ali, this action-packed new chapter sees an extraction team race to the most dangerous place on Earth, an island research facility for the original Jurassic Park, inhabited by the worst of the worst that were left behind. Also starring acclaimed international stars Rupert Friend and Manuel Garcia-Rulfo, the film is directed by dynamic visualist Gareth Edwards (Rogue One: A Star Wars Story) from a script by original Jurassic Park screenwriter David Koepp. Five years after the events of Jurassic World Dominion, the planet's ecology has proven largely inhospitable to dinosaurs. Those remaining exist in isolated equatorial environments with climates resembling the one in which they once thrived. The three most colossal creatures across land, sea and air within that tropical biosphere hold, in their DNA, the key to a drug that will bring miraculous life-saving benefits to humankind. Academy Award® nominee Johansson plays skilled covert operations expert Zora Bennett, contracted to lead a skilled team on a top-secret mission to secure the genetic material. When Zora's operation intersects with a civilian family whose boating expedition was capsized by marauding aquatic dinos, they all find themselves stranded on a forbidden island that had once housed an undisclosed research facility for Jurassic Park. There, in a terrain populated by dinosaurs of vastly different species, they come face-to-face with a sinister, shocking discovery that has been hidden from the world for decades. Ali is Duncan Kincaid, Zora's most trusted team member; Critics Choice and Olivier Award winner Jonathan Bailey (Wicked, Bridgerton) plays paleontologist Dr. Henry Loomis; Emmy nominee Rupert Friend (Homeland, Obi-Wan Kenobi) appears as Big Pharma representative Martin Krebs and Manuel Garcia-Rulfo (The Lincoln Lawyer, Murder on the Orient Express) plays Reuben Delgado, the father of the shipwrecked civilian family. The cast includes Luna Blaise (Manifest), David Iacono (The Summer I Turned Pretty) and Audrina Miranda (Lopez vs. Lopez) as Reuben's family. The film also features, as members of Zora and Krebs' crews, Philippine Velge (Station Eleven), Bechir Sylvain (BMF) and Ed Skrein (Deadpool). An Amblin Entertainment production, Jurassic World Rebirth is directed by BAFTA winner Edwards from a script by Koepp (War of the Worlds), based on characters created by Michael Crichton. The film is produced by Oscar® nominee Frank Marshall and Patrick Crowley, both longtime Jurassic franchise producers and of last summer's blockbuster, Twisters. The film is executive produced by Steven Spielberg, Denis L. Stewart and Jim Spencer. # # # All rights reserved 2025. All brands and trade names are the property of their respective owners.

2026 Infiniti QX60 Gains Google Built-In Tech and a Bangin' Stereo
Infiniti will offer the QX60 in Pure, Luxe, Sport and Autograph trim levels, all of which ride on 20-inch wheels, killing off the puny 18s that were previously standard on the base model. Across the board, every QX60 is powered by a 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-four engine with 268 horsepower and 286 lb-ft of torque as well as a nine-speed automatic transmission. Front-wheel drive is standard, but all-wheel drive is available. Inside, a pair of 12.3-inch displays span the dashboard, with the right one housing an updated multimedia system with the Google Built-In suite. Standard on all QX60 trims, this software uses Google Maps for navigation, as well as Google Assistant voice commands. We've used this tech in other vehicles, and we expect it to be just as helpful in the QX60. Another feature brought down from the full-size Infiniti QX80 SUV is a Klipsch premium audio system. A 16-speaker setup is standard on Luxe and Sport trims, while the top-of-the-line QX60 Autograph gets a 20-speaker setup, including those awesome headrest-mounted speakers.
