For $2,850, the Technology Package makes the QX as idiot-proof as possible. Thanks to the features in that package, combined with Infiniti's standard Around View Monitor, which provides a top-down view of the SUV, I always knew what was happening around the QX. The tech package adds adaptive cruise control, a blind spot warning system, a lane departure warning system, brake assist and an adaptive front lighting system. In a vehicle this size, every assist helps.

Standard equipment includes heated seats, a heated steering wheel, burl wood highlights, front and rear climate controls, a moonroof, a Bose stereo and a navigation system.
