When Refinement Becomes Delay
That said, our experience didn’t seem entirely isolated.
Reviewers from across the automotive media-landscape and forum commenters all seem to agree that, at the low end, there is some sort of lag or delayed response in the QX60.
This is where the broader question becomes more interesting. Is ‘refinement’ starting to feel more like a delay?
Modern luxury SUVs increasingly route driver inputs through software designed to improve smoothness, fuel economy, refinement, and perceived effortlessness.
In theory, that sounds ideal.
In practice, those same layers can sometimes create a sense of separation between what your right foot requests and what the vehicle actually delivers.

The QX60 may simply be another example of that balancing act.
