Should you drive the 2022 Genesis GV80 or 2022 Infiniti QX60?

If you need a third row of seats, you’ll have it on every trim of the QX60, but the GV80 top trim does not come with a third-row seat. When you want the more powerful and opulent of these two SUVs, the GV80 Prestige Signature is the luxury SUV you want to drive. You’ll have to figure out whether or not those items are enough to justify the much higher price or if you’d be better off driving the Infiniti QX60. Either way, you will have an impressive luxury SUV to show off to your friends and family.
