The QX55 debuted for 2022 as a coupe-like alternative to the QX50 and a direct response to the BMW X4, Audi Q5 Sportback and Mercedes-Benz GLC Coupe. The sloping roofline in the rear affects cargo capacity, with 118 litres amputated from the trunk. However, maximum cargo capacity (3,000 lbs) is the same as the QX50. A single engine option is available, namely a turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine producing 268 horsepower through a continuously variable transmission and all-wheel drive.
