When Infiniti launched the first-generation QX56 back in 2004, the idea was to capture a slice of the growing large SUV pie from well-established American luxury SUV manufacturers, including Cadillac, Jeep, and Lincoln. The second-generation QX56 launched for the 2011 model year after making rounds at global auto shows during the winter 2010 season. Totally redesigned, it would go on to sell for fourteen years before being replaced by an all-new model for 2025.
