Something extraordinary is unfolding
LaFontaine INFINITI Ann Arbor – Confident Maneuvering and Highway Ease in the 2027 INFINITI QX65 for Brighton, MI Drivers
Why Brighton, MI Drivers Click With the 2027 QX65
Brighton’s mix of downtown parking, roundabouts, and quick highway hops to I-96 rewards a luxury SUV that feels composed at low speeds and pleasantly unflustered at a cruise. The 2027 INFINITI QX65 threads that needle with driver-focused visibility tech, standard Intelligent All-Wheel Drive, and a cabin designed to reduce the friction of everyday tasks. Even better, its coupe-inspired design doesn’t come at the cost of practicality—you still get 35.8 cubic feet of cargo space behind the second row and 67.7 cubic feet when folded.
The advanced camera suite is a standout. Available Invisible Hood View projects the front wheel area through the hood on your screen, so you can gently guide the vehicle into a tight space on Main Street without guesswork. Layer on the available 3D Around View® Monitor with Moving Object Detection and available Front Wide View, and you have a smart, situational perspective that helps when angled parking feels snug or sightlines are short.
On Brighton-area freeways, standard ProPILOT Assist lends steady confidence by combining Intelligent Cruise Control with Steering Assist. It’s easy to use, aimed at reducing the mental load of steady-state traffic. For shoppers who want more capability, AUTOGRAPH with the Technology Package offers available ProPILOT Assist 2.1, which can help navigate compatible freeways from on-ramp to off-ramp, informed by high-definition mapping. It’s all about making those daily I-96 runs or weekend trips to nearby recreation areas feel calmer and more consistent.
Parking Poise Meets Real-World Practicality
Downtown Brighton can be charming—and tight. The QX65’s available camera views effectively “shrink” the vehicle around you when maneuvering, letting you see curbs, lines, and even immediate cross-traffic through the lens of 360-degree imaging. The Invisible Hood View is especially useful for spotting how close you are to a barrier or ensuring your wheels are perfectly placed along a curb.
Outside of town, when you’re loading up for a day at Kensington Metropark or Island Lake, the QX65’s cargo floor and wide opening make it easy to stash coolers, strollers, or folding chairs. The available Motion Activated Liftgate (standard on AUTOGRAPH) is a small luxury that pays big dividends when your hands are full. Standard roof rails add flexibility for carriers when you need extra room.
Confidence on Mixed Roads
Conditions around Brighton vary—commuter corridors one minute, backroads the next. With standard Intelligent All-Wheel Drive, the QX65 anticipates traction changes and reallocates power to keep the experience smooth and planted. The uniquely tuned 2.0L VC-Turbo supplies up to 268 horsepower and 286 lb-ft of torque, while the 9-speed automatic’s gearing keeps response crisp. Together, they strike a refined balance between confident power and sensible efficiency, rated up to 22 MPG combined.
If your weekends include towing a small boat to Kent Lake or a utility trailer for projects, the QX65’s 6,000-lb towing capacity across every trim is a compelling advantage. Available towing equipment on SPORT and AUTOGRAPH—tow hitch member, harness plug, and Trailer Sway Control—helps keep that capability user-friendly and confidence-inspiring.
Tech That Eases the Everyday
Tech should make driving easier, not more complicated. The QX65’s 12.3-inch high-resolution touchscreen, Google built-in, and standard Wireless Apple CarPlay® and Wireless Android Auto™ put your navigation, calendar, and media at your fingertips without extra cables. The interface is crisp, intuitive, and responsive, backed by INFINITI InTouch® Services with a three-year subscription that includes remote functions such as Lock/Unlock and Climate Control, as well as maintenance notifications.
Music lovers will gravitate toward the available 20-Speaker Klipsch® Reference Premiere Audio system. It includes headrest speakers for the driver and front passenger and supports Personalized Sound, which adjusts audio based on your hearing profile. It’s a thoughtful feature when you want immersive sound at lower volumes—perfect for early-morning commutes down Grand River Avenue.
Cabin Comfort: Calm, Considered, and Crafted
Everyday ease in the QX65 starts with a quiet, supportive environment. Available climate-controlled, massaging front seats help during long drives, while heated front seats are standard on LUXE and SPORT and heated front and rear seats are standard on AUTOGRAPH. Materials feel substantial and inviting, especially in AUTOGRAPH with its quilted semi-aniline leather-appointed seating and open-pore wood trim. The standard panoramic moonroof opens the cabin’s ambiance, day or night, and available multi-color ambient lighting helps set the tone.
Visibility enhancements such as the available Smart Rearview Mirror—streaming an HD camera view to your mirror—ensure you maintain a clear look rearward even with tall passengers or bulky cargo. Add in the available 10.8-inch Head-Up Display, and key data stays within your forward line of sight, so your eyes remain on the road ahead.
