The QX80 is a luxury lounge on wheels, but you'll pay dearly for its best features.
Sumptuous interior materials · Impressive towing capacity
Top features cost a premium · Engine lacks dramatic improvement
The 2026 Infiniti QX80 emerges from its decade-long cocoon with a bold, refreshed aesthetic that screams opulence. The cabin is a sanctuary of high-quality materials and cutting-edge technology, with a Klipsch audio system that turns every ride into a concert. What surprised us, though, was how the new twin-turbo V6, despite its impressive power specs, doesn't feel like a leap forward compared to the outgoing V8. Still, the QX80 cruises quietly and can tow up to 8,500 lbs with ease. But beware, most of its most enticing features are locked behind a hefty price tag. This SUV is for those who crave luxury and space, and don't mind shelling out for the top-tier trims.
Our pick: LUXE 4WD ($91,545)
vs. 2026 Mercedes-Benz GLS-Class: The GLS feels more refined and offers a smoother ride, but the QX80 counters with more interior space and a unique audio experience.
