The Infiniti QX56 is a Full-size Luxury SUV sold under the Nissan-owned Infiniti Luxury Brand . It is based on the Nissan Armada Full-size SUV, and shares the F-Alpha platform with the Nissan Titan Pickup Truck . The QX56 competes directly with the Lincoln Navigator and Cadillac Escalade full-size luxury sport utilities, as well as the smaller Lexus LX . The QX56 is larger than the Lincoln Navigator, Cadillac Escalade and Lexus LX.

The truck is propelled by a 5.6 , the throttle becomes less sensitive, presumably to allow easier regulation of acceleration when off-road.

The Infiniti QX56 has around 9,000 entertainment system, 4WD / 2WD , and a bench instead of captain chairs as the second row. Other features which come standard are a ten-speaker Bose system, DVD-based navigation system, leather trim for all seats, dual-climate control, 18 in. chrome alloy wheels, and an Adaptive Cruise Control system. A Precrash System is a novelty in the market as well.

As with the Nissan Armada, it is built in Canton, Mississippi ; and is currently only available in the United States , Canada and Saudi Arabia . It is also the first Infiniti built in the United States. Since priced lower than the Lexus LX, the QX56 has become a success for Infiniti, outselling the Lexus LX.

Since the demise of the Q45 (which was priced above the QX56) after 2006, the QX56 is the most expensive Infiniti in North America , and is Infiniti's only full-size vehicle.
