  • ( www.TFLcar.com ) The 2012 Porsche Cayenne S vs and the Infiniti QX56 have at least one thing in common: most owners will never take them off-road. No make that two things in common: They both also have a V8 engine that produces 400 horsepower. So of course we couldn't help but wonder which of these very luxurious vehicles is better when the road turns muddy and rough in the Colorado Mountains. So which of one of these two is the better off-road worthy ride? Check out this fun an muddy Mashup review to find out.

    I just bought a 2011 qx56 looked at the Tahoe ltz denali, and escolade, the infiniti by far blows them all away! and just traded it in for my 2009 range rover, no comparison the qx56 is the best truck!!! go buy one!

      I just bought one as well. Best vehicle purchase I've ever made. Not to mention the most complimented. It's gorgeous. The model got one or two negative comments on appearance when it first came out, and clearly these guys read the article and regurgitate the opinion they were told to have...That's a sheep for ya!

    The thing they missed in this review is that the QX56 is actually based on the Nissan Patrol, which is considered one of the best off-roaders in the world....

      ck m Yea the Nissan patrol is actually well known for being one of the best..

  • @TFLcar
    @TFLcar  12 років тому +2

    For the same reason that Porsche installed multiple locking differential in the Cayenne S...because that's what the vehicle was designed to do...go off-road. Just because most owners won't take them off-road does not mean they can't go off-road, or shouldn't go off-road.

    Thanks for your kind and thoughtful comments. As you said we're trying to inform, educate and entertain with these Mshups and that can be a fine line to walk. Sometimes we succeed and sometimes we fail. We're very happy to hear that you think we succeeded with this mashup.

    The previous generation Touareg (Cayenne twin - as you mentioned) was actually doing pretty well off road. Still they're both not on frames and that's their main weakness.

    I rented a QX56 in Phoenix for 2 weeks on vacation; drove over 2000 miles. I fell in love with it and knew I had to have one. Don't need the room, just loved the feel of being huge, a "just because" car. I was shocked how quick it was, too. But watching your reviews made me consider the FX50, because of its performance. The QX can be had for just a little more money-wise, with more room... but the same MPG! Both are great cars. If you had to pick one you enjoyed the most, what would it be?

  • @tritchie6272
    @tritchie6272 9 років тому

    Fast Lane Car, Does the QX have the cylinder deactivation? I have been told that some Trucks get over 20 combined MPG using a V8 with cylinder deativation! If these big powerful luxury SUV's don't have that they probably should. After all ain't Luxury kinda about having it all?

  • @TFLcar
    @TFLcar  12 років тому

    Nathan Agrees. He says your mom's Civic is still in his driveway and that is was a very bumpy ride.

    I liked your comparison, I think it was more just having compared with the porch Cayanne Infiniti FX 50, to make it more fair.

  • @TheDeadlyxRocker
    @TheDeadlyxRocker 11 років тому +2

    If you want an ACTUAL luxury off road vehicle nothing compares to a Range Rover or a Range Rover Sport depending on your budget

  • @apalsenberg
    @apalsenberg 12 років тому

    You guys have a real talent in comparing the incomparable!
    On which planet would one think, "should I get the Porsche Cayenne S or the Infiniti QX56?"
    ...still very enjoyable, and educational for that matter :-)
    vs Cayenne would be: Range Rover Sport, Q5s, Jeep SRT8, ML...
    vs Infiniti would be: Land Cruiser VX/Lexus, Range Rover, Q7, GL...
    btw, what ever happened to Pajero?

  • @bigdrew2008

  • @Johncarson9113
    @Johncarson9113 11 років тому

    This is an off-road mashup. The Infiniti QX doesnt compete with the Cayenne. Its simply a comparison based off thier off roading capabilities. The Porsche Cayenne competes with the Infiniti Fx37 & Fx50 as well as the BMW X6 & Range Rover Evoque. The QX competes in the Full Size Sports Utilility segment, rivaling the Range Rover HSE, Mercedes GL & Lexus LX.

  • @declaytor

  • @Johncarson9113
    @Johncarson9113 11 років тому

    I live in an affluent city and although I love the Porsche Cayenne I have to admit that the Infiniti QX56 has been very popular around these roads. I have quickly seen the driveways of what were once dominated by Ranger Rovers, Mercedes Gl's and Lexus LX quickly replaced by the new Infiniti QX56. It over shadows all its competitors. Both are great cars but in retrospect the Porsche Cayenne competes with the FX37/50 not the QX. Styling is subjective but the QX is a great luxury SUV.

    it's because of the Cayenne's new all-wheel drive system (especially torque vectoring), but no one would compare a Cayenne with the upcoming XV Crosstrek

  • @apalsenberg
    @apalsenberg 12 років тому

    I don't know why you felt you should tell me this... but the LX570 is not in the same catogory/class as the Jeep, and I don't care about drag races or burnouts for that matter but Jeep (SRT8), Cayenne Turbo, RR Sport (Supercharged HSE), ML63 are all high performance sports cars that would beat most 2 seater rwd sports cars; so i'd say yes please to a 1/4mile race.
    And another thing: when you see a Cayenne, being a Porsche: expect it to do everything outstandingly, off-road included.

  • @unknownunknowns
    @unknownunknowns 11 років тому

    You get what you pay for? Since we all want cars that can go on any terrain eventually, the pricy Cayenne is more suited for that b/c its suspension can elevate for off road or depress to lower the center of gravity. And I say 'eventually', b/c there may not be any funding for building more roads or just repairing them causing plenty of potholes due to any fiscal crisis.
