The window sticker was just below $90,000, so it was not inexpensive. The handling and traction in northern NY is as good as it gets. The ride quality is a little rough, but in return you get excellent road handling for a 6000 lb. vehicle. Nothing has ever needed repair now up to 37,000 miles. We replaced the windshield wipers. Bought 4 new tires at 34,999 miles, $1,200. We only get about 17 MPG on highway at 70 MPH, and 15 MPG around our rural area. The drivers controls are rather odd to a person used to American cars like us, making it quite difficult to figure things out like how to turn on the windshield wipers, use the navigation aid system, etc. Some of the controls, like the heat/air controls for the seats, are very hard to read. The port for a thumb drive is located in a compartment too short , requiring a special short length thumb drive. The rear storage with the 3rd row seats down is not flat. To use the tow hitch, you must remove a plastic panel, leaving an extremely ungainly gaping hole. The seat upholstery is the best we have seen and all the interior roof, side, pillars etc. are covered in what appears to be suede leather.Very nice, very classy. The comfort of long trips (we drive 1300 miles to Florida) is outstanding, one of the best we ever experienced. Highway driving is effortless and very quiet. Overall, we love this SUV and would definitely buy another QX 80 in a couple more years. This is only our second foreign car and we are very positively impressed.

Front wheel bearings went bad on my 2016 at only 7 years old and 44k miles, which is unheard of for regular use. $1200+ to replace. Cruise control is jerky. Transmission makes some loud noises when shifting into gear. Infotainment is horrible, never know when it will connect to my phone, sometimes it surprises me and works. Powerful and thirsty, gets 10mpg city.

Can’t get comfortable on short flat seat

This is a beautiful car, but it should be more comfortable. The front seat is so short, there’s no thigh support. I’m a tall female, and have been fighting knee issues since taking over driving duties of this car. The seat sits high like a bus, and my knee and thighs are always under pressure. Moreover, the break pedal is 2.5” higher and 3” away from the accelerator, so I’m constantly moving my right leg, and twisting the knee and ankle to access the pedals. I’ve built up the floor of the vehicle by placing two towels under the floor mat, which is a modest improvement. Am looking at getting the break pedal adjusted. I’ve owned over a dozen cars, and never once thought about the pedal placement. The lumbar support is so low on my back, it actually causes the spine to curl rather than extend. I use a third towel for lumber, which doesn’t feel very luxurious. Driving this car in town is a chore,not a pleasure. Too bad, it’s a pretty beast with a nice engine. I prefer experiencing Infiniti as the passenger.

Car is great overall however the Infinity QX80 does not hold its value and expect To take a huge loss if you plan on selling you're used QX80. I bought mine a little over 1-year ago with a sticker price of 81K and now 1-year later it's valued at 48K, a 30K + drop in 1-year. I will never buy a Infinity again

My review is negative because of the car quality not the overall company because I had a great experience with the local dealer here. I'm very disappointed with the QX80 2018: Quality of the backup camera and the 360 degrees cameras, this is by far the worst quality of cameras in the car market! It looks like a camera from 10 years ago. The car also love gas too much, I'm averaging 11 miles in the city and 13.5 in the highway, I had big engine cars all my life and this car is the worst in that department. You would expect when you pay over 75k for a car with normal backup camera, that's my biggest complaint with the car!!! At night you can’t even see anything
