cruise control at 55 mph got 13 mpg on flat terrain. small hill climb caused abrupt lower gear with engine roaring. hard to get in and out. drove and rode like a truck. instrumentation counter intuitive in need of technology upgrade. would not want to get in this in dark rental lot and try to set the mirrors and seat again.

Questionable SUV

I got this vehicle as a loaner while my Suburban is in body shop. Well, there are couple of good things about this vehicle and bunch that I wasn't too crazy about. First is when you open the door and release door handle, the door makes this hollow tin can noise like in 20K car. Then you step on the running board and it bends under your weight. I'm only 185#. I can only imagine that 300# guy will steep on it and rip it off 😒 Buttons and some controls aren't as intuitive as BMW, MB or Suburban. Driving quality is okay for the most part but if you hit a pothole, rear end will bounce and step sideways slightly. I don't think it's acceptable for a vehicle in this price range. Touch screens take 2-3 touches to activate, change channels or use climate control. My wife's previous lexus had way better touch screen. Other thing that really bugs me is the small gas tank... You will barely get over 200 miles on 3/4 of the tank with 4 people in the vehicle and nothing in tow. I know, you don't buy this rig to worry about gas mileage but come on, my previous GL had this consumption towing 6000# trailer. This thing barely gets over 13mpg on the highway keeping up with traffic. My '16 Suburban gets 19mpg on the highway all day long and I can drive for 600 miles on a tank of gas on the highway. With QX you will be stopping every 300 miles. I don't know but some people like captain seats in 2nd row. Not my thing at all, you can't fit long item because it sticks out when you fold second row. The transmission feels like CVT and its doesn't have good solid feel to it. So, in the end I'm glad I experienced this vehicle and now know that I will not consider it, ever. You will get better vehicle with GL/GLS, even Tahoe/Burban is better.

I had many brands of cars. now I have this tank. ... not the best. glass sprinklers work just awful. like two jets from a hose. pour on half of the glass. only the bottom. from a place at a traffic light gets under way very badly. no starting energy. the second row of seats has no seat in the middle. and this watchman box takes up a lot of space.

My 2019 QX80 Luxe is exceedingly capable around town and particularly on the highway. Some say it is not as good overall as others in its class, but I can't imagine how anything can run better or feel more comfortable. I love the fact I'm still riding a tank-like TRUCK... in total luxury that keeps me in touch with the road below. Yes, the feel-good technology sucks. So what? The safety technology is as good as the competition. So, I’ll keep using my phone for directions. And the fact I spent several thousand less than the competition cost at the time I bought mine, still puts a smile on my face despite the so-so feel-good technology. And, when it comes to looks, none is as pretty, looks as refined, or at least to me, feels so right.

Reliable QX 80

My wife loves it. Specifically the luxury interior and excellent drive. We have kept all maintenance up with Infiniti and Nissan dealerships. We realized there were other brands out there. But we really are satisfied with our decision. We chose the CHAMPAGNE color. Beautiful! Very unique. Don’t see many of that color on the road.
