The refinement of the 2016 QX80 speaks volumes about INFINITI’s dedication to detail and intense pursuit of perfection. It wasn’t enough just to make this a huge vehicle full of presence and passenger-hauling capability—no, they had to go a full step further, introducing a true luxury SUV with the features and engineering consumers crave.

This machine is packed with technology and convenience attributes which set it far ahead of the pack. There are rain-sensing windshield wipers to automatically adjust to precipitation levels and make your journey safer. Also, the included navigation system makes getting to your destination a breeze, and once you’re there, parking assist takes over to handle the final step for you. And there are a couple of seemingly small but deceptively important additions, as well, including lumbar support for your back and a 60-40 split-bench setup to maximize spaciousness.

And wow, can the 2016 INFINITI QX80 move! It’s outfitted with a 3.5L V6 engine that generates thrills as a function of the 265 HP and 248-lb.-ft. of torque at its command. Plus, this isn't a herky-jerky ride; instead, the SUV comes with a sensationally smooth Xtronic two-speed continuously variable transmission (CVT).
