The 2025 INFINITI QX55 is the epitome of a luxurious compact crossover SUV. With its long list of offerings and powerful engine, it’s a winning vehicle that’s built to last the test of time. But how does it compare against the 2025 Nissan Rouge, another compact crossover SUV with a more budget friendly price tag? Keep reading with the experts at Woodchester INFINITI to find out!
Engine Specificities
The INFINITI QX55 is hands down the winner when it comes to a more powerful engine. It has a 2.0-litre Turbocharged engine, with 268 horsepower, and 280 pound-feet of torque, making for a smooth ride. Comparatively, the Nissan Rogue is powered by a 1.5-litre Turbo engine with notably less horsepower and torque. With 201 horsepower and 225 pound-feet of torque, the lower specifications means it offers better fuel efficiency at a combined 7.6-litres per 100 kilometers. On the other hand, the INFINITI QX55 uses a combined 9.5-litres of fuel per 100 kilometers.
| Specifications | 2025 INFINITI QX55 | 2025 Nissan Rogue |
| Engine Type | 2.0-litre Turbocharged | 1.5-litre Turbo |
| Horsepower | 268 | 201 |
| Torque (lb-ft) | 280 | 225 |
| Transmission | CVT | CVT |
| Fuel economy – L/100 km (combined) | 9.5 | 7.6 |
Interior Comforts
Some form of leather seating comes in all of the 2025 INFINITI QX55 trims. Leather-appointed seats come standard for two of the trims, while the third has semi-aniline leather-appointed seats. Comparatively, the Nissan Rogue’s SL model is the only one that comes with leather-appointed seating and the Platinum model comes with quilted semi-aline leather-appointed seats. The 2025 Nissan Rogue largely utilizes cloth and Prim-Tex for seating.
Speaking of seating, the INFINITI QX55 offers 8-way powered front seats with 4-way power lumbar support for the driver’s seat. While the Nissan Rogue also has 8-way power support, it’s only for the drivers seat and doesn’t come standard across its lineup. It also only offers 2-way power lumbar support.
Entertainment Subscription Offerings
The INFINITI QX55 comes with an impressive lineup of free trial offerings that are available to all models. This includes:
- SiriusXM Radio with advanced audio features: 90-day trial.
- INFINITI InTouch Services Telematics: Complimentary 4-years premium package access and 5-years select package access.
- INFINITI InTouch Wi-Fi Hotspot: Included for 3 months or 3GB of data used.
While the 2025 Nissan Rogue also has similar offerings, the availability varies per model. For example, the hotspot feature, available through NissanConnect, does offer a similar trial subscription, but it isn’t available across its lineup.
Verdict
While the comparison process between the 2025 INFINITI QX5 and the 2025 Nissan Rogue shows that both SUVs have a list of respectable offerings, the luxury that comes with the 2025 INFINITI QX5 can’t be ignored. Its powerful engine, seating features, and subscription trials make it stand out. Additionally, the 8-way powered driver seat with 4-way lumbar support means more comfort control for the driver. If you’re looking for a crossover that checks the style, luxury, and performance boxes, the INFINITI QX55 is the way to go.
