Infiniti QX55

Car and Driver reports Infiniti confirmed that the QX50 and QX55 compact SUVs will be discontinued after the 2025 model year, ending production in December and making 2025 their last model year, as first reported by Automotive News, with a new QX65 two-row coming for 2026. MotorTrend says Infiniti's QX55 exited the lineup after 2025, ending the brand's brief run in the compact luxury coupe-SUV space, calling the 2026 Infiniti SUV lineup a clear transition year for the brand. Infiniti of Kearny Mesa says production of the QX50 and QX55 is scheduled to end by the close of the 2025 model year, and that some buyers still prefer a final-year 2025 QX50 or QX55 for that reason.
