Don't bother with comments here most people here don't have money to put a fool tank of gas in this thing not talking about getting one. Love my 2019 luxe
Tesla model S has had the same bodystyle since 2012. LAND rover keeps the same bodystyle on Range Rover models for 10+ yrs. It's not about how "old" a design is, it about what it offers. Despite being "old" still looks attractive. It's got all the safety and tech features needed that justifies the price.
@@JokerG16 lol and then there's me with a 04 infiniti i35 that averages 14 mpg and i have the 3.5 vq haha, don't care tho anymore. Im going to enjoy gas cars while they're still alive.
@@clarencepreston573 You have to pay to play. Don’t like the price? Buy something you’re comfortable with. Im happy with 11 MPG for my daily. My weekend car is worse.
I just picked up a loaded Sensory for $77k. In terms of value, this is a better Luxury full-size SUV compared to Ford, Chevy, GMC, Cadillac, and Lincoln. Navigators and Escalades going for $95k to $110. Expedition, Yukon, and Tahoe going for high $80s. I agree with video and comments that this SUV can use an upgrade but $77k is great value…plenty of room for golf clubs and family luggage for our road trips!
Agreed just picked up a 2024. Price dropped due to 2025 coming out, great APR rate…drives great, love the V8…just took fam on first trip with plenty of room. Wife who was scared to drive a large SUV whips that thing around like nothing…no complaints.
@@asharsiddiqui9647it all depends, how much do you plan on putting down? Have a trade in? 60 months? 72 months? APR range between 0.9 and 1.9 depends on your credit. You can figure out payments online, take about 12-15k off MSRP unless you can negotiate more and work from there.
This the closest thing to an American Land Yacht that the Japanese have ever produced. Big, heavy, low MPG, luxurious. Very safe in a collision, as the more weight you have the less shock you receive (and conversely the other guy gets more necksnapping whiplash).
Say Infiniti's line up is outdated all you want but you have to admit they were ahead of the game with their designs. Yes they are in need of a redesign but they have aged very well.
Ive rented Armada couple of times. Drove down to Vegas, and LOVED IT. Even with being a little tight, I would still choose this old school dinosaur with proven older tech, a v8, over a compatition. Thanks Joe.
An absolute beast! I own one and could not be happier. My previous one was Lexus GX460. Power delivery is smoother in QX80 and seats are more comfortable. I love the 360 degree camera. 36 presets for audio, power reclining 3rd row and soft supple ride.
Well, you are in the minority. These vehicles aren’t selling, and are struggling to get out the door. Meaning, most people find this to be the boring vehicle, and not worth the price.
55-60k would be nice for this! The company didn’t have to invest in new equipment to make different parts, just a few! Overall is a good tank that looks good and gets the job done!
7:39 excellent review as always Joe, you forgot to ZONK the incandescent turn signals on the bottom 😂 For a vehicle in this price range, this should have all LEDs inside and out.
You can have a beautiful headlight assembly and design but if it even has a single halogen bulb like in the turn signals, it completely ruins it for me.
I don't like it way down there AT ALL! The rear end shape from the side is already kinda weird, but that blinker at the bottom is whack. Even its last version had it. The new Armada refresh is great though. I might take a platinum Armada over this based on price and what you get for it, along including the new look and tech. Shout out to the VK-56, still holding it down in this world of hybrids and twin turbos 😀.
90K for that is way overpriced. Something comparable would be the Lexus GX460. Also a V8. It was refreshed in 2022 with a new bigger screen and Apple CarPlay. The base is 59K and the luxury model is 69K. Plus they’ll go 500k miles. Just a thought. Great review!!
@@JokerG16 yep, Nissan is obviously bigger, but it’s basically the same rig with a bigger rear and slightly wider. The 3rd row is still useless. I think most folks will still choose a Lexus and save 25K. Also, Residual values will usually favor Lexus n Toyota.
@@JokerG16No they don’t. Stop trying to justify your purchase of a Nissan product. Toyota/Lexus, are in a different stratosphere now. Nissan has been struggling, and it’s been showing in what they’ve released these past few years.
@@JBrown-go8ru it’s clear you either don’t get outside much and it’s clear you REALLY haven’t been overseas. Toyota’s trucks now aren’t the same as before as honestly it doesn’t look like they’ll be lasting as long as before either.

I love my 2022 QX80 I have owned everything out there. This ride is safe, luxurious, quiet & a truly ultimate driving experience. Also it turns way more heads than my Escalade & my Porsche Cayenne did! Luv it! Luv it! Luv it! Don't change the body style please! Timeless design...King of the road!
@@SacrificeBreedsSuccess possibly, but other brands tend to makes some differentiators in terms of interior design, tech, trims etc that you cannot get on mainstream brands
You are so right Joe! Infiniti needs to step it up. This QX80 is so old in its design. It is in desperate need of an update. Great review! Thanks for bringing it to us.
Escalade I bought new & traded it 3 months later. A total POS! Unsafe to drive would blow from lane to lane in crosswinds. Poor handling & cheaply built!
Nissan's VQ series engines are second to none, and now that the Toyota Sequoia is a 6 cylinder, this is a no-brainer. Powerful, throaty, timing chain, and a 2 speed transfer case. Though I'd get the Nissan Armada, as the Infiniti offers nothing substantive over the Armada.
Just bought a 23 QX80. Its sensational. With everyone doing too many screens...the technology is just where i want it. With 3 kids and a dog this is cozy. It also does well offroad. And yes. We take it offroad. It tows well...Also, been a Toyota guy for 20+ years...but i wanted a bulletproof v8. This delivers. Plenty of people have hugh mileage inifinitis/Nissans. Its safe, rides amazing, delivers in every category
400hp and the performance for a car like this is really good. I wish they’d done more with the rear end, at least dual and less restrictive exhaust but that would be expecting too much from Nissan.
i think you fail to recognize the Q50 and Q60 which sold 7000 units in 2022 and is their more enthusiast based offerings, which accounted for about 17% of Infiniti’s sales. Not to mention the Q Red Sport cars are a blast to drive.
@SV RWD/AWD Sports sedan/coupe with a 400HP twin turbo V6 and a limited slip differential is not enthusiast? okay lol. And never did i say in the comment that Infinti was doing well, their sales are down about 50% this year across the board but with the technology being updated in all their vehicles i feel like they will make a bit of a resurgence this year.
@@ValenR6 Resurgence with what? The brand is dead. Genesis is killing them in sales they have nothing new that is even noteworthy. Warmed over Nissans will ensure the brand is gone in a next few years. I believe what the previous poster was saying is that there is nothing enthusiastic about 7000K sales a year and he's right. It's nothing to even mention.
My old 2008 QX56 has almost 200k on it and just keeps going. I’ve beat on it and driven it hard including towing and off roading. Can’t believe how reliable it’s been.

Jeep Grand Wagoneer L #13, and the leader of the 12 Apostles to the Auto industry is: the Toyota Sequoia Capstone.
I have a 2020 QX80 I, and I absolutely love it. 20mpg highway city 14- 16, and I like the dual screen better, too. And endurance 5.6 engine reliability is a bonus. People should test drive them for yourselves.
Mrs had a 2017 - identical and back then it was dated - that being said, so quite and smooth running down the road, absolute tank in the snow, but dang, living with a vehicle this size is a job - small parking lots, drive through are tough, but dang, so much the same
I’m also still partial to the flip down rear entertainment, especially with having the digital rear view mirrors, the last gen Escalade esv platinum with the head rest monitors and the two flip downs were my fav 🥰
You will never get better fuel economy if its has a v8 mate...thats why many car maker nowadays start replacing their v8 with v6 or inline 4...because fuel consumption is one of the biggest factor lead to buying new car by the customer
@@dolguldur4706 na v8s and v6s are disappearing because of government regulations. Engines are bound to be more unreliable now because automakers are pairing them to cheap turbos.
I have to say, I have a 2015 and I like it much more than the newer styling they have been doing. Mine is almost fully loaded ( AWD, 4x4, the driver assist, 22" wheel & tire package, rail roof, illuminated kickplates, and the theater package). I honestly like the black leather in mine vs the brown in the top trim. Also, from my research the only other thing that I am missing out on is the lane change detection which I hear is pain in the rear anyway. I got mine last Oct for $25K, has around 115K miles now since I got it, but I am on the forums and groups and there are many there that have way more miles than that as long as you maintain it. I love the ride and how overall thought out it is. I will agree the audio/tech in mine is way outdated, but I have been looking at some aftermarket units that make it like the one in this video. I believe as long as I take care of this one, it will last and treat me well for many years, just like I have been taking care of my 2011 Jetta SE that is still in like new condition with only 85k miles.
It definitely Will‼️ I have a 2015 QX 70 .. I have put over 200,000 miles on it and it still runs like a Charm‼️ And YES keeping up the maintenance is a Must to keep it running efficiently ❤️
This car as with all infinitis was a good value proposition about 7 years ago. They have not invested in this model and I think it’s about 20K overpriced as a result. I had a q50s and my wife had qx60. Both were reliable and perfectly fine but I would not get into this brand again until they do a proper refresh.
Digging it. Looks like it’s out with the f150 and in with this. My family has been using infinity for 15 years but I have stuck to trucks. I coincidentally had a new Nissan armada as a rental and was blown away. They drive so nice, and tow enough, and nice proven reliable 5.6 v8. Best part is price point for a 1-3 year old is an amazing value!
Infinity was the luxury brand in the 90's. Lexus and Acura were also rans. Things went sideways and now Genesis runs circles around Infinity these days.
I have a 2022 genesis, and you’re right, miles ahead, on about everything. I’ve had mine for a year and it’s been the best car buying decision we have ever made.
I feel like the styling has aged well this generation. The interior definitely needs a makeover. It screams a decade old. At least it still has a NA V8 under the hood
@@naveenthemachine sure buddy whatever you say 😂. Minus the controversy on the styling car reviewers liked it. Good thing nobody listens to you or you’re the one reviewing it. Love your hate it’s hilarious 💀
@@mattmekhaeil motortrend Worst: 2022 Lexus LX600 Times change, but the Lexus LX just hasn't kept up. Sure, the new-for-2022 LX600 is better, with a more efficient engine and improved tech, but the company's insistence on adhering to the golden ratio may be holding it back. The 2022 LX's 112.2-inch wheelbase hasn't changed since 1995, and it shows. The opening into the third row is too small, and the second row isn't spacious enough. Add to that an excessive amount of body motions and a just-alright interior, and I'm left wondering what the LX offers besides the brand's reputation for high resale value and rock-solid reliability.
You can get a 2020 M5 competition for $90,000 or less. No way in hell I’m paying $90,000 for an infinity let alone this one. I don’t think it’s a bad vehicle but that price is wild. This shouldn’t even be in the same conversation as the Escalade. I think some auto makers put vehicles at a certain price point to force it in the same category as way better vehicles lol. It’s like charging $80,000 for a Nissan Cube and acting like it compares to the Ranger Rover Velar
I rented one of these about a month ago honestly it that one was 2020 or 2019 even it was nice but like you said it could use a redesign…I’d rather get a Tahoe honestly
I purchased the 2023 QX80, and love it, I looked at the New Lexus 550, and QX80 top it, would have wish they upgraded the cabin with new features, I have had (2) QX 56 , 2006 and 2012
Don't get me wrong, it's still a pretty impressive Full-Sized SUV. However it's also clear that the QX80 is now somewhat behind their counterparts from GM, Ford & Mercedes-Benz. That's why I find it incredibly surprising that they haven't introduced a 3rd Generation Model as of 2023, despite this version being 13 years old now (GM has actually introduced 2 Generations of Full-Sized SUV since it launched back in 2010). Regardless, my advice to Nissan would to either launch that 3G Version or at the very least upgrade the interior & sunroof of the current 2G Version. Oh and introduce an Extended Length QX80 as well.
I like analog gauges. I feel digital is a cheap imitation. I have a feeling in a few years when everything is digital the super high end will bring back analog 😆
Like the body style. Engine and transmission is superb. Electronics is way behind. Most important is engine and transmission. They keep you moving...........................................
The turn signals on the front bumpers are, meh, kinda okay... but on the back bumper?? If thats not the most stupid design trend ever in a car, its for sure at least top 5. Smdh especially on big vehicles like this.
I’ve had a 2014 Sensory trim QX80 with 153,000 and nothing but reliable transportation since day one. Love it.

I had a q50s and my wife had qx60. Both were reliable and perfectly fine but I would not get into this brand again until they do a proper refresh.
I really like the 2nd row screens built into the headrest.Sleek design.
This is what the people want...... a must HAVEEEEEEEEE1
Luxury to me is less chrome and more matched painted parts
Looks big and comfy 🙂
Is a nissan patron woth a suit on
Awesome review Joe, beautiful infinti QX80. Iv'e always loved this brand!
Love the QX80
Here from Instagram ❤❤ amazing I love these car videos.
Thanks for letting me share them with you!
Great review. I’m going to buy a 2023 QX80 today, no joke
I’m still waiting for a redesign
2024 bro! It's coming
Digging it. Looks like it’s out with the f150 and in with this. My family has been using infinity for 15 years but I have stuck to trucks. I coincidentally had a new Nissan armada as a rental and was blown away. They drive so nice, and tow enough, and nice proven reliable 5.6 v8. Best part is price point for a 1-3 year old is an amazing value!
This is the “you wanted a Tahoe but the rental car company only had this” special 😬
LOL You crack me up Carlos!
Exactly!
…this is a lot better than a Tahoe lol
It's actually just as nice as the Tahoe.

Infinity was the luxury brand in the 90's. Lexus and Acura were also rans. Things went sideways and now Genesis runs circles around Infinity these days.
I have a 2022 genesis, and you’re right, miles ahead, on about everything. I’ve had mine for a year and it’s been the best car buying decision we have ever made.
It is crazy things have changed.
Hi Joe. Would really like to see you do a review of the 2023 Lotus Emira. Thanks
Qx80 is the boss SUV. I love the look old school and they hold their value unlike the big three.
I feel like the styling has aged well this generation. The interior definitely needs a makeover. It screams a decade old. At least it still has a NA V8 under the hood
I don’t think the interior is dated. Have you seen the LX600? That’s more outdated than the qx80 and the Lexus is brand new
@@naveenthemachine sure buddy whatever you say 😂. Minus the controversy on the styling car reviewers liked it. Good thing nobody listens to you or you’re the one reviewing it. Love your hate it’s hilarious 💀
@@mattmekhaeil really? Did anyone say this gives the Escalade or other SUVs a run for its money? No

Worst: 2022 Lexus LX600
Times change, but the Lexus LX just hasn't kept up. Sure, the new-for-2022 LX600 is better, with a more efficient engine and improved tech, but the company's insistence on adhering to the golden ratio may be holding it back. The 2022 LX's 112.2-inch wheelbase hasn't changed since 1995, and it shows. The opening into the third row is too small, and the second row isn't spacious enough. Add to that an excessive amount of body motions and a just-alright interior, and I'm left wondering what the LX offers besides the brand's reputation for high resale value and rock-solid reliability.
@Matt Mekhaeil I have noticed through the videos that he genually has a hate for Lexus products. I wonder if the sames for Toyota? 🤔
Man, I think this review had the most Zonks ever! Another honest review Joe! Thanks
You can get a 2020 M5 competition for $90,000 or less. No way in hell I’m paying $90,000 for an infinity let alone this one. I don’t think it’s a bad vehicle but that price is wild. This shouldn’t even be in the same conversation as the Escalade. I think some auto makers put vehicles at a certain price point to force it in the same category as way better vehicles lol. It’s like charging $80,000 for a Nissan Cube and acting like it compares to the Ranger Rover Velar
9:36 almost ate the curb jesus
Almost don't count!
I love it Joe and Lori and keep up the good work and I love the video 👏 👍 💯
It's called Infiniti because they keep using the same interior forever.
Suddenly this interior looks and feels more luxurious and modern
@@naveenthemachine luxurious and modern? You need to get your checked. Interior straight from the 2010s
@@mattmekhaeil have you seen the LX? The interior is much worse 😂. It looks dated already and it’s not luxurious inside at all
@@naveenthemachine much worse? According to your eyes. A blind man can’t see and you’re one them
Just on looks alone Cadillac Escalade hands-down. It’s not just a dressed up Chevrolet anymore as in years past.👍🇺🇸🥃
It definitely is. Foolish to think otherwise!
I rented one of these about a month ago honestly it that one was 2020 or 2019 even it was nice but like you said it could use a redesign…I’d rather get a Tahoe honestly
I purchased the 2023 QX80, and love it, I looked at the New Lexus 550, and QX80 top it, would have wish they upgraded the cabin with new features, I have had (2) QX 56 , 2006 and 2012
These Nissan Patrol's are built like a tank. Say what you will about the style, etc. The mechanics are solid.
This is so very true Nick!
Don't get me wrong, it's still a pretty impressive Full-Sized SUV. However it's also clear that the QX80 is now somewhat behind their counterparts from GM, Ford & Mercedes-Benz.
That's why I find it incredibly surprising that they haven't introduced a 3rd Generation Model as of 2023, despite this version being 13 years old now (GM has actually introduced 2 Generations of Full-Sized SUV since it launched back in 2010).
Regardless, my advice to Nissan would to either launch that 3G Version or at the very least upgrade the interior & sunroof of the current 2G Version. Oh and introduce an Extended Length QX80 as well.
I always like this truck, I'm hoping Infiniti knocks out the new one!!! I'm pulling for them !!!
I just can’t see getting one of these over a sequoia or a Jeep wagoner but it’s nice
And stationary running boards on the top trim?!
I love my 2019 QX80 Limited!
The redesign is well overdue! The price is TGDH!
I like analog gauges. I feel digital is a cheap imitation.
I have a feeling in a few years when everything is digital the super high end will bring back analog 😆
bro i’m the same way honestly lol. i love analog gauges. just simpler. plus this has the digital screen in the middle so you get best of both worlds
I legit forgot about this car until you made this review 😂😂so Thank you!
It is, because its not American made. Better resale value, and made to last
Awesome review 👏
Your so close to 1M!!!! Subs
I work at an AutoZone and I can agree with the stick-on vent comment. They would totally fall off shortly after being applied..
I have the 2017 and I love it . Really don’t like the radio. Every thing else is ok
Hey Joe, one question, what is the price of that SUV? Regards. 🏎️🏎️
😁So right Joe! You stepped to the camera with the perfect message we’ve ALL been thinking 0:37
Like the body style. Engine and transmission is superb. Electronics is way behind. Most important is engine and transmission. They keep you moving...........................................
I have Lexus gx but I will choose QX any day very smooth and comfortable to drive I love it
The turn signals on the front bumpers are, meh, kinda okay... but on the back bumper?? If thats not the most stupid design trend ever in a car, its for sure at least top 5. Smdh especially on big vehicles like this.
Old is gold. Ill pick one up when the depreciate a good 50%
