2027 INFINITI QX80 Review

2027 INFINITI QX80 Review


Some SUVs simply get you where you're going. The 2027 INFINITI QX80 makes the getting-there part of the appeal, wrapping a bold, squared-off silhouette around a cabin that feels more like a lounge than a back seat. It's the kind of vehicle that turns a Saturday errand run into something you look forward to.

In this 2027 INFINITI QX80 Review, 24 INFINITI of Plymouth walks through what's new, what's standard, and what makes this three-row flagship worth a look for drivers across Plymouth, Kingston, and Hanover, Massachusetts.

Key Takeaways

  • The 3.5L V6 Twin-Turbo engine delivers up to 450 hp and 516 lb-ft of torque, paired with a smooth 9-speed automatic transmission.
  • ProPILOT® Assist 2.1 hands-free highway driving is now available on the Luxe trim, not just the top-tier Autograph.
  • Up to 101 cubic feet of cargo space behind the front row, with heated first- and second-row seating standard.

See how the INFINITI QX80 Performs on the Road

Every INFINITI QX80 runs the same refined 3.5L V6 Twin-Turbo engine, producing up to 450 horsepower and 516 lb-ft of torque through a 9-speed automatic. That torque shows up early and stays put, which is exactly what you want when merging onto Route 3 with a full cabin. Rear-wheel drive comes standard on Pure and Luxe trims, with 4WD available, while Sport and Autograph trims add 4WD as standard equipment for extra confidence on wet New England mornings.

Fuel economy checks in at an EPA-estimated 16-18 combined MPG depending on drivetrain, good for roughly 400 miles of range per tank, so a weekend loop from Plymouth to Hanover and back won't have you watching the gauge.*

The INFINITI QX80's interior is where owners consistently say the SUV earns its price tag. Kelley Blue Book® owner ratings put the 2027 QX80's overall quality at 4.5 out of 5, with drivers regularly praising the plush, quiet ride and genuinely comfortable third row, a detail that matters when you're hauling the whole family down to a Duxbury Beach afternoon.

Every INFINITI QX80 comes with eight-way power front seats featuring TailorFit synthetic seating, a panoramic moonroof, and a motion-activated liftgate for those grocery runs when your hands are already full. Cargo capacity tops out at 101 cubic feet with the rear rows folded, giving you real flexibility whether you're packing for a Hanover soccer tournament or a Cape Cod getaway.

Every trim includes dual 14.3-inch displays built on Google built-in, plus a 9.0-inch touchscreen control panel, so navigation and entertainment stay front and center without feeling cluttered. Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ come standard, along with a wireless charger and eight USB ports, enough to keep an entire carpool's devices charged on the way to Hanover.

Standard audio comes from a 14-speaker Klipsch® Premium Audio System, while Luxe, Sport, and Autograph trims can be upgraded to a 24-speaker Klipsch Reference Premiere setup with speakers built into the front headrests. New for 2027, ProPILOT® Assist 2.1 hands-free highway driving is now available on the Luxe trim, a feature that used to be reserved for the range-topping Autograph.
