Based on the gargantuan <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/armada">Nissan Armada</a>, the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/qx">Infiniti QX56</a> is one big beast of an SUV. Especially next to the svelte <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/model/FX">FX</a>, and even more so now that the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/model/EX">EX</a> has joined the line-up. Keeping such a goliath of a truck looking fresh is a challenge unto itself, but Nissan's luxury division is apparently working on it.<br />
<br />
The biggest thing to hit Tempe since Super Bowl XXX, this QX test mule was spied by one of our intrepid readers while apparently undergoing hot weather testing around the Phoenix suburb. The vehicle in question, as you can see, is wearing heavy camo, but appears to carry the same pronounced grille as the current model, albeit with more angular headlights to mimic its little brothers. The rear end appears to be undergoing a restyling as well, while the C-pillar-mounted rear door handle - a hallmark of Nissan sport-utes in the Pathfinder family - have apparently moved to the more conventional position. That's about all we can surmise about the behemoth hiding underneath that Michelin Man suit, but you can have a look for yourself in the exclusive gallery of spy shots below. <em>Thanks for sending these in, Justin!</em><br />
