Product Overview

Infiniti QX80 (chassis code Z62) facelift is a full-size luxury SUV in production from 2017. It is available with a single naturally-aspirated V8 engine that displaced 5.6 liters.

One of the last full-size SUVs to come with a NA V8, the QX80, like the Nissan Patrol on which it is based, offers superb offroad capabilities. Those who drive offroad, for work or leisure, will appreciate the extraordinary approach, departure, and breakover angles that the chassis offers.

Owners may find that at speed the vehicle consumes a lot more than the numbers indicate, thanks to a disappointing 0.36 coefficient of drag to show for it. With a 14.7L/100km (16.0mpg) fuel "dis-economy", owners have to be prepared to pay for their "smiles-per-mile". Utility-minded owners will love the 2693L (95cu-ft) cargo space.

Reviewer score 57% (normalized by Neofiliac)

Reviewers from cnet have found:

Comfort is at the forefront of the QX80 driving experience, and the result is rewarding. Infiniti needs to put its two-screen infotainment setup onto a boat and ship it off to Valhalla. The Mercedes-Benz GLS-Class and BMW X7 are far more luxurious.

Pros

Powerful V8 engine
Comfortable to drive
Lots of standard safety tech

Cons

Lackluster infotainment
Expensive compared to rivals
