A modern crossover in the luxury segment that seats up to seven is an immediately attractive vehicle, isn’t it? But when you add in hybrid functionality, you’re dealing with a machine that tends to win plaudits everywhere it goes. That’s the case with the 2014 QX60 Hybrid, which dazzles with high-tech performance.
A dive into what makes this crossover great reveals a spirited 2.5L inline four-cylinder engine that is complemented by a 15-kW electric motor that leverages 250 HP in total. This propels the machine from a standstill all the way to 60 MPH in only 8.0 seconds. That beats out competitors in this class by half a second or more!
Naturally, the 2014 QX60 Hybrid’s gas economy is in the stratosphere. The EPA suggests that despite the size, capability, and speed of this crossover, you’ll still receive a highway MPG average of 26. You’ll also be able to go an amazing 507 miles on one fill-up! All in all, MotorWeek says this car’s powertrain is a “very well integrated system†that delivers fuel efficiency without forcing an unfamiliar driving experience upon you.
