Trim level differences

The QX55 comes in three trim levels: Luxe, Essential and Sensory. Feature highlights include:

Luxe
Starts you out with:

  • Turbocharged four-cylinder engine (268 horsepower, 280 lb-ft of torque)
  • Continuously variable transmission
  • All-wheel drive
  • 20-inch wheels
  • LED headlights
  • Roof rails
  • Power liftgate
  • Sunroof
  • Dual-zone automatic climate control
  • Simulated leather upholstery
  • Power-adjustable front seats with heating
  • Dual-screen infotainment system
  • Six-speaker sound system with satellite radio
  • Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration (wireless functionality for CarPlay)
  • Wi-Fi hotspot

Safety features include:

  • Lane departure warning (alerts you if the vehicle begins to drift out of its lane)
  • Forward and rear collision mitigation (warns you of an impending collision and applies the brakes in certain scenarios)
  • Blind-spot monitor with rear cross-traffic alert (warns you if a vehicle is in your blind spot during a lane change or while in reverse)
  • Rear parking sensors (alert you to obstacles that may not be visible behind the vehicle when parking)

Essential
Adds on more luxury features, such as:

  • Heated mirrors
  • Rain-sensing wipers
  • Power-adjustable steering column
  • Driver's seat memory settings
  • Heated steering wheel
  • Leather upholstery
  • Ventilated front seats
  • 16-speaker Bose premium sound system
  • Navigation system
  • Surround-view camera system (gives you a top-down view of the QX55 and its surroundings for tight parking situations)
  • Front parking sensors

There are two main option packages available for the Essential:
ProAssist

  • Adaptive headlights (they swivel as you turn) with distinctive design
  • Adaptive cruise control (maintains a driver-set distance between the QX55 and the car in front)
  • Blind-spot intervention (automatically steers the car back into its lane if you try to change lanes while a car is in the vehicle's blind spot)
  • Lane departure intervention (warns you of a lane departure when a turn signal isn't used and can automatically steer to maintain lane position)

ProActive (requires ProAssist)

  • Upgraded adaptive cruise control
  • Lane keeping system (makes minor steering corrections to help keep the vehicle centered in its lane)
  • Adaptive steering
  • Head-up display (displays important information in your sight line on the windshield)
  • Traffic sign reader

Sensory
This top-shelf QX55 trim comes with all of the above features as standard, plus:

  • Hands-free liftgate
  • Premium leather upholstery
  • Tri-zone automatic climate control with air filtration

Which QX55 trim does Edmunds recommend?

We suggest stepping up to the midrange Essential trim, not just for the additional convenience and luxury features, but also because it's eligible for more options than the base Luxe model. To that, we'd add the ProAssist package to get additional driver assist features such as adaptive cruise control.
