Always rooting for Infiniti to bounce back and im so glad we’re getting somewhere. Been a fan since learning how to drive in a 2003 G35. Let’s go Infiniti!
3:28 To my eyes, the center appears to be farther away. Similar to Street lights along a straight rd. It’s a 3 dimensional effect. The pattern is larger on the outside edges and then they get slightly smaller towards the center. ✌️
So many brands have pop out handles, just because range rover was the first doesn't mean Infiniti was copying range rover. Infiniti was the first manufacturer to offer a rear view camera in the USDM market in 2002, Nobody says other brands were copying Infiniti! I can say the same about BSM and Lane Departure, Infiniti never gets the recognition it deserves for it's constant innovation
Rear light bar design enigma is in fact no enigma at all: It said loud and clear, it shout .. INFINITY by that design. Ask any visual artist or designer . It's kind of INFINITE light, INFINITE road lightened in each side, or lighting from a landing strip of airport.
😅I like the Kia inspired rear lights ... I love everything else. 😅Kinda of a mix. Lexus Dash. Cadillac screen. Range rover/Lincoln exterior 👏 but good mix
3:30 the concept is if you look at it straight on it looks like you’re driving down a road to Infiniti. The way it narrows to the center and gives that illusion. Same thing with the new Logo it looks like two roads going down a never ending road.
I am Japanese living in Canada, and I currently own my second Range Rover. My father is still nagging, saying I can buy an Asian luxury SUV and I'll be just as happy lol. I admit I do not need the particular model I have, and have been browsing alternatives. This was an excellent, very objective review! Thanks 😊
The Z engine is just fine. Over 400hp for a car that weighs just over 3500 Lbs is a missile. If you want more power from the Z, get the Nismo upgrades...bigger intercooler, Nismo intakes, Nismo Street or track exhaust and a nismo/ecutek tune. You'll be pushing close to 500hp to the wheels. Anything more then 400hp is a death trap unless you can really drive
Not that I have the money, but if I had wanted a vehicle like this, this is the one I want. Actually, I love the rear end but in anything but the white ha ha
@@ItsAlive111 no question the engine is good but also a Hybrid and a Plug in Hybrid as a option for the customers would be nice, I mean you must expect this from a luxury brand these days.
Been waiting for this Infiniti for a while. Design and luxury wise, it’s great and I love. Would have gone for it had they not messed with the cargo space. It’s too small behind the 3rd row
talk about the giant center stoage thing that your elbow falls into when you try to get comfortable on the arm rest haha i wanted to like this in person but we can't get it 9:30
If you look at the taillights from afar, the way it goes from big to small from the sides coming in, it seems like an infinite light that stretches on. Maybe that's what they're trying to achieve to mimic the name of the brand
@SamCarLegion ...wow....initially I thought that vehicle sat low compared to its previous models. That definitely is sharpe.....maybe I can win one in a contest😆😉
@ General Motors on the whole is superior hence why they own the majority of the market share in every market can’t argue with the math and sales figures for every year since inception
Sam, one can appreciate your amatuer opinion. This really doesn't help answer the question. Nissan and Infiniti are on the edge of a clift. PS the car looks like brian from family guy.
Imagine you’re an exterior designer for an international luxury car brand like Infiniti and some random UA-camr walks up to the back of the car you probably spent 2+ years slaved over and he goes “there’s no thought to this”. lol.
Where are all the old Camrys and older Toyota and Honda and Hyundai Models????? Nissan Models are all over the roads. Put some Respect on Nissan INFINITI
No Nissan, except the GTR, should cost above $100K CAD. I know not everyone out there can afford to pay for a car that is over $100k CAD in cash. Most people will not understand or conceptualize what a typical buyer who can afford to pay cash for a car that is over $100k CAD. One thing is for sure, those buyers are not actively looking to buy a Nissan that costs over $100k (except of course the GTR). Nissan's Infiniti brand has always been known to give good value for its price and undercut the competition with lower costs, more power, more features, more warranty etc. This is the default mindset of all Infiniti buyers out there since forever: Those buyers could or choose not to stretch their dollar a little more to go with Lexus, Mercedes, or BMW. Infiniti is really near death. I have seen many Infiniti Dealers close and the only way to buy them is through Nissan Dealerships today.
Thank you for the response. This topic is really about Infiniti and Nissan and not about Acura, Lincoln, and Lexus. I do have guarded sentiments about Acura and Lincoln. Lexus, however, is a top player in this space. I would not be surprised if affluent people who pay cash for their cars are cross shopping the LX with vehicles such as the BMW X7, Mercedes GLS, Cadillac Escalade etc. Have a great day!
Yes this thing is really nice and Infiniti killed it but of course they then priced it and turned it into Infiniti semi shit again and killed it! 🤦♂️.
It’s not slower, the patrol is 425 hp and heavier than the qx80 and it’s faster than the land cruiser which is lighter , this one is 450hp and lighter than the patrol
To the point, if I want a luxury SUV which I use on daily purpose, I would pick LEXUS LX 600 because it is more reliable and I want that at the end of the day. But if I want a really luxury SUV which is more comfortable and have nice interior I would choose Range Rover Autobiography or something similar. So, I think the market for the infiniti QX80 is very small compared to other SUV. But yeah its a very nice SUV!
But also...I agree this doesn't hold a light to the 2025 Ford Expedition or 2025 Cadillac Escalade. Ford Expedition will be awarded the best. It's too forward thinking.
Infiniti, Infiniti, shame on you making this monster car for absolutely no purpose other then gangsta style with tinted windows! I wish they made new sporty sedan that we can really enjoy not this thing.
Infiniti sales down by 13% and nissan lay off, ceo pay cut. Infiniti has been the second or maybe third choice in a very crowded and ultra competitive market. With Genesis showing up to play it’s really blown a lot of potential sales for them coupled with a really awful looking lineup. There’s a lot of reasons to choose something else. 🚗📉
Have a family member who works for Nissan Motor Corp and yea Nissan is cooked. S&P downgraded Nissan to a “junk” rating on their debt to income score. Sales plummeting in North America and China where 50% of all their sales comes from. Nissan/Infinity have the highest inventory on dealer lots in the U.S. and dealers profits are down 70% from this time last year. Desperately needing R&D with negative cash flow to invest.
Get rid of their CVT along with their 4 cylinder engines. They would have been in a better position. Nissan has been the 3rd place finisher between Toyota, Honda, and Nissan for at least 30 years. The last Nissan I’ve owned was an early 2K Maxima GLE. To me, they took the value position. Honda the sport and Toyota the quality position.
Always rooting for Infiniti to bounce back and im so glad we’re getting somewhere.

We want QX80 vs LX600 vs Escalade drag race 😍
a V8 range rover
Add a Acura MDX s type
What a great idea pal ❤
LX700 Hybrid*
the blackwing escalade win...by a couple bus...
This is indeed very nice looking car except the rear 😂 but still much better than LX to me. Well done Nissan
Fair enough!
Ohhhh Klipsch!!! Klipsch is Awesome!! Great home entertainment speaker systems.
Wasn't aware to be honest
Yes!! So many people don’t know about klipsch. If you pay attention to the speakers in some Harkins movie theatres they are klipsch branded as well.
@ yes I bought my home system in the late 90s and it’s still rockin and bumpin today!!!
Looks good. Big improvement over the last generation. I'd still take an Escalade, but this is a good effort by Infiniti.
Looks awesome in white ❤
One of the best looking SUVs in its class
Agreed
im telling you, out of all the speakers I've listened to Klipsch makes the best speakers with the most bass. Infiniti was wise choosing klipsch
It does sound amazing

It didn’t say copying, more so get inspired.
If u look at the rear lights they look like an endless road with red street lights on the side of it.
If i had to guess the Taillight suppose to be an "INFINITY" road like their badge designed since the lights goes from large to small
Rear light bar design enigma is in fact no enigma at all: It said loud and clear, it shout .. INFINITY by that design. Ask any visual artist or designer . It's kind of INFINITE light, INFINITE road lightened in each side, or lighting from a landing strip of airport.
I agree, it’s giving a 3D appearance. Posted the same idea before reading the comments.✌️
I just traded out 21 Yukon for one of these. It’s the sensory. We absolutely love it!

The motor in this is what should have been put into the current Z car, what a shame 🤞
Wont fit
@SamCarLegion I just assumed it would, maybe the next generation Z, would be nice.

Yeah it does look good 👍

it looks nice and impressive, a good new beginning for Infinti, now it neeeds more engine´s with better mpg`s.
Buys a $100k+ land yacht with massaging rear seats, complains about mpgs
I agree about the engine
Yes it does!
@@ItsAlive111 no question the engine is good but also a Hybrid and a Plug in Hybrid as a option for the customers would be nice, I mean you must expect this from a luxury brand these days.
The final CPR on the low volume segment. 😂

Great review as always ✌️
Klipsch is Really good Home audio
First time hearing about.

I can see that
Looks Amazing!
It is!
Nice car but is still go for the Chinese U8 if they ever decide to send to the uk.
Not available in North America
Perfect for me everything i need is here not too long❤😊
Nice review. Looks sick but I'm pretty sure the first mainstream car brand to make the flush pop-out door handles was Tesla
nice yatch! i love big yatchs, specially if they haul!
Same
screens are great. But i would like to see good ole buttons and knobs for basic and frequently used functions like climate control.
The design is a whole lot better than the Genesis line of cut and paste design.
The 125k price tag is what going to kill this Vehicle and it's extremely nice.
Whos is cheap
Over $100k price tag but no rear infotainment screen. Was it that expensive to not even put it on their top trim?!!!
Honestly those are useless
0:28....wait.....did that rear raise up when the vehicle started????
Yep
@SamCarLegion ...wow....initially I thought that vehicle sat low compared to its previous models. That definitely is sharpe.....maybe I can win one in a contest😆😉
The Navigation screen is outdated the quality looks like it's 360p.
i heard the engine is a derivative of the GTR engine. is it true ?
Ye
Escalade is still king! Especially the refreshed model for 2025 and every year and generation yet to come. Including the Escalade IQ and IQL
Not really.
@ General Motors on the whole is superior hence why they own the majority of the market share in every market can’t argue with the math and sales figures for every year since inception
Which watch is that? You have a nice collection
Oris Chrono 65
Shinny black plastic on any interior is ALWAY a no sale.
I'll wait 2 years when its 60K
Get a drag race between 2025 Lincoln navigator vvs 2025 Cadillac Escalade vs Infiniti GX 80
Defooooo
Infiniti sports vehicle models show off now 〽️

This comment is so weird. lol. there's old Toyotas and Hondas everywhere. Your brand is dying buddy.
Get one soon lotto max lets gooo😅😅
This destroys any honda or acura
@Que67kdro90 but honda or acura doesn't have a full-size suv, let alone a body on frame SUV

I really wish it had rear seat entertainment
They are useless - buy ipads cheaper and upgrade every year

Pop out handles were invented or introduced first time by Nissan through the GTR!
Not the same
$110k?! thats A deck out GLS450 price...Infiniti smoking crack?
GLS450 is tiny compared to this. Not in the same league. Thats 110 base model GLS450
@@SamCarLegion 89k USD base model they are the same wheel length, same class.
No window shades for this 100K plus vehicle? seriously?
Built in sun shades
Wooow great 🤘

Why can't we download the video ?
It's Toyota Land Cruiser 2024 And Lexus GX 550 competitor. Not Cadillac Escalade
Really 😂
ig Bro never heard of nissan patrol/armada
No. LC/GX and LX, for that matter, are much smaller than the QX80. Though it is slightly smaller than an Escalade, it is a direct competitor.
Yeah, ur definitely smoking. They are not in the same category.
He said a building 💀
Yes this thing is really nice and Infiniti killed it but of course they then priced it and turned it into Infiniti semi shit again and killed it! 🤦♂️.
this badly needs aftermarket sexy wheels
23s baby
This is Slower Than Lexus LX 600
It’s not slower, the patrol is 425 hp and heavier than the qx80 and it’s faster than the land cruiser which is lighter , this one is 450hp and lighter than the patrol
Lol…. Definitely isn’t. The QX is much larger, and is definitely faster.
Not true...
How? The engine in the new QX80 is similar to the engine in the Nissan GTR
I already watched a comparison between lx600 vs qx80 both 2025 qx much faster and another thing qx handle better
It is about 15-20k overpriced
Whats cheaper?
That QX80 is naaasssssty!!!
Infiniti needs to do better with the name. Autograph?
Range Rover comes with Autobiography.
KIA MOTORS😊
Rear sucks the light is not nice it’s just a gimmick
It took a loooooong time but I found the design idea behind it. It’s an infinite road the starts from the side to the middle
A very nice car. Only those shit screens ...

Petrol burn and unreliable
Let me guess, starting at 80-90k?
I hope nissan and Infiniti will bounce back. I think the QX80 looks good in white. 🤍
