The 2025 Infiniti QX80 doesn't have any major weak spots, but there's nothing about it that fully stands out either. In a class of vehicles with some real standouts, merely being good isn't good enough.

2025 INFINITI QX80 Review

by Michael Cantu

rating written by Reese Counts

Overview

After 14 long years without any significant updates, Infiniti's largest and most expensive SUV finally gets a complete redesign for 2025. Although the smaller QX50 and QX60 received overhauls, the outgoing QX80 soldiered on far too long without a redesign, making it one of the least competitive models in its class. Infiniti makes up for that with a much more compelling third-generation QX80. The new flagship SUV oozes luxury, boasts top-notch tech features, and still fulfills SUV duties thanks to a massive cabin and a stout towing capacity of 8,500 pounds.

Edmunds spotlight: The QX80's notable changes for 2025

The QX80's new interior is thoroughly luxurious, tech-forward, and constructed with high-quality materials. However, tech is where the new QX80 made its biggest leap forward. The new 14.3-inch dual display screens have excellent graphics and showcase Infiniti's latest infotainment system. It's significantly better than the last system and has integrated Google apps, including Google Maps. Other standard tech includes a package of advanced driver aids called ProPilot Assist 1.1 and a Klipsch audio system. The optional ProPilot Assist 2.1 is a new hands-free driving system that works on certain highways. Power is now provided by a 450-horsepower turbocharged V6 that's 2 mpg more efficient than the previous V8 and produces 50 more hp and over 100 more lb-ft of torque.

Competitors to consider

The 2025 QX80 is a huge improvement over the previous dated model. But as compelling as this SUV is, the Infiniti is up against some stiff competition including the equally large and impressive Lincoln Navigator and Cadillac Escalade, both of which receive major updates for 2025. The Mercedes-Benz GLS and BMW X7 aren't as large as the QX80, but they are superbly luxurious and more comfortable.

Which QX80 does Edmunds recommend?

Although the base Pure trim comes generously equipped with a long list of features, we think the Luxe offers the most features for the money. The Luxe's adaptive air suspension provides better ride comfort and the second-row seats are power-folding, which helps make life a little easier. It also includes two features luxury cars should have: real leather upholstery and ventilated seats. For hands-free driving on certain highways, add ProPilot Assist 2.1.

2025 INFINITI QX80 LUXE 4dr SUV 4WD (3.5L 6cyl Turbo 9A)

This is my third Infiniti vehicle, and I’ve been anticipating a bold new release — the 2025 QX80 exceeds all expectations. While it carries a premium price tag, its design, performance, and features make it well worth the investment. Congratulations to Infiniti on a job well done.
