The 2024 Infiniti QX60 will enter the new model year essentially unchanged. Infiniti launched the all-new, second-gen QX60 in 2022 to lock horns with the best of the best in the midsize luxury crossover segment, a virtual battlefield dominated by renowned nameplates like the Mercedes-Benz GLE, BMW X5, Porsche Cayenne, Audi Q7, Acura MDX, and Genesis GV80. However, the Infiniti QX60 has a lower starting price than its nearest rivals, which buyers will find appealing considering the QX60’s posh three-row cabin, comfortable ride, and generous features list. Plus, the QX60 could tow up to 6,000 lbs. (when properly equipped) and...

An orchestra of young musicians have published a masterful take-down of a car company, in response to its “tired” stereotyping of youth music-making. Last week, the musicians released a video titled ‘An INFINITY Of Young Talent’, which references ‘Infiniti’, the luxury division of the car company, Nissan.

The advert portrays a youth orchestra playing Richard Strauss’ tone poem, Also sprach Zarathustra. However, the...

I took an advertising course in college. The prof gave us an assignment to make a radio or tv commercial on any product we chose. He was an old school guy, who told us that the rules of advertising hadn't really changed since the Clark Gable movie, The Hucksters, came out especially when it comes to "funny" ads. He said funny ads don't work. People may laugh at the commercial, but they won't be persuaded to buy the product by comedy. And his next thought stuck with me. People may remember the humor, but they won't remember the product that...

Feel free to keep those holiday plans. US Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy on Sunday said that vaccinated Americans can still gather for the holidays with “low” risk amid the spread of the concerning, new Omicron variant as long as they follow health precautions. “The concern and the challenge we have right now in the country, Margaret, is that we have millions of people who are still unvaccinated, which poses a risk to their lives, but also poses an increased risk of transmission,” Murthy told anchor Margaret Brennan on “Face the Nation.” “But if you do as many families, you...

What you are looking at is the physical representation of Hyundai's will to succeed in the U.S., also known as the 2009 Hyundai Genesis. The Korean automaker's first attempt at a rear-wheel-drive luxury sedan will debut in Detroit next week and arrive on our shores later this year (we think) with a price tag that starts below $30,000. As is Hyundai's way, it will feature power, performance and amenities that belie its little price tag. First, the design. The Genesis sedan has clean lines and uncluttered surfaces that look detailed and, frankly, expensive. Yes, it's derivative. There's a bit of...
