Now here’s something you don’t see too often: a carmaker refreshing a model—and giving the fresh ride a lower price than its predecessor. Such is the case with the 2016 Infiniti QX50, which was given a longer wheelbase and, well, not much else relative to its 2015-model-year equivalent but costs $550 less. (You may know this model better by its old EX badge, although given its low sales, maybe not.)
-Starting at $35,445, the base, rear-wheel-drive 2016 QX50 is not only longer but better-equipped, too, with a standard sunroof and heated seats front and rear. Like last year, all-wheel drive will cost QX50 buyers an extra $1400. Unlike last year, the Premium package is available on all QX50s—before, all packages were restricted to the now-dead uplevel Journey trim—and sees a price drop to just $500. (It includes an 11-speaker Bose audio system, a power tilting/telescoping steering wheel, and an auto-dimming rearview mirror, and used to cost $3050, albeit with navigation and a touch screen included.) A $2000 Premium Plus package augments the Premium gear, and brings Bluetooth audio streaming, navigation, Infiniti’s Around View parking camera system, and parking sensors.

The $2750 Technology package (adaptive cruise control, forward collision warning, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assist, and blind-spot monitoring) and the $2400 Deluxe Touring package (power driver’s-seat lumbar adjustment, eight-way power front passenger’s seat, 19-inch wheels, power-folding second-row seats, and adaptive HID headlights) go unchanged, although, again, they’re now available on every QX50.
