Infiniti has given the 2025 QX80 quite a few new design changes which makes it look stunning, attractive and also muscular. The new design represents Infiniti’s Artistry in Motion philosophy, thus making significant changes to make it stand out in the segment.

• At first glance, you won’t fail to notice the luxurious comfort and modern style of the SUV

• Starting from the newly designed Piano Black waterfall grille, inspired by Japan’s Kyoto bamboo forests.
• The sizable double-arch grille with illuminated 3D Infiniti logo points towards a classy look
• Radiant Grille Emblem and Digital Piano are the familiar items that attract your attention instantly.  

• The wider body style makes it mighty and refined, and attractive, with sensor-activated door handles for a sleek look and greater convenience

• At the back, the light curtain rear tail lights with over 300 micro LED lights make quite an impression 
• The Digital Piano Key lighting creates a stunning impression

• Similarly, the Floating roofline and windows give it a distinctive look and fluid profile.

Ride and Handling

• At the heart of the QX80’s performance is the rugged and powerful 3.5-litre twin-turbo V6 producing 450 hp, paired with a smooth 9-speed automatic transmission. And, it won’t really disappoint you, is what our experience told us. 

• The ride quality is also enhanced by the superbly tuned air suspension, with electronically controlled shocks that are standard on most trims. This provides you with the much-needed adjustable ride height and damping for greater comfort, ease and off-road abilities.
• We noticed, the air springs come into offering a soft, cushioned ride when you encounter any bump or pothole or sharp dips.
• One thing that came out brilliantly during our drive is how Infinity has given the QX80 a complete makeover compared to its previous generations for a natural steering that balances lightness at low speeds and stability at higher speeds. This certainly deserves a lot of attention and appreciation. 
• When you’re faced with rough terrain or a gravel situation, we found that the QX80 retains a truck-like feel due to its body-on-frame construction.
• Another aspect is the steering, which felt heavier at times but definitely refined than that previous generation and scores well against its rivals. Because the electric assist allows hands-free driving features with the ProPilot Assist 2.1.

• Overall, the cabin is much quieter and smoother, completely isolated from road noise, and you truly feel driving a high-end SUV. So, in a nutshell, the QX80 is a fun-to-drive SUV with giant power and smoother handling, bringing a simple on your face.

The 2025 Infiniti QX80 is available in four variants in KSA

Sensory 4WD (Captain’s Chairs)

Start at SAR 520,000, this is a base variant, and so you get relatively lower features and technologies. However, the performance with a powerful and reliable twin-turbo V6 is uncompromised. Further, you get all-wheel drive, 20-inch wheels, quality Klipsch audio, and ProPILOT Assist 1.0.

Sensory 4WD (Bench Seat)

This Sensory variant replaces captain’s chairs for a second-row bench, which basically expands seating capacity to eight, without increasing price. And, so, most of the features are the same, making it ideal for families who prefer extra seating and also more luggage space is a preference.

Autograph 4WD (Captain’s Chairs)

With this variant, the price shoots up to SAR 590,000, but then you get extra premium features, including 22-inch wheels, burgundy leather seats, and advanced biometric cooling. 

Autograph 4WD (Bench Seat)

This top-end variant combines the Autograph’s premium features with an eight-seat configuration, catering to families who want the ultimate in luxury and space, and are willing to pay the extra to get everything that is on offer. 

Sayarabay Recommends: If you are looking to pick up the most suitable variant among the four that are available in KSA, then the QX80 Sensory Captain Chairs should be the one. The reason is simply, it seems to tick all the right boxes when it comes to luxury, technology, and perhaps, most importantly, the price. You get a capable and refined powertrain, which assures a strong and unrivalled performance with the smoothest handling. Then, you would notice, the Sensory variant also gets all the premiumness inside the cabin, which includes premium leather, heated, ventilated, and massaging front seats, and second-row captain’s chairs that slide and recline electronically, providing the typical first-class comfort. Overall, the Sensory is a combination of everything the QX80 has on offer, and could be the best bargain.

The 2025 Infiniti QX80 has impressed us beyond our expectations, be it the performance of the V6 engine, a lot of impressive tech and equally appealing is the top-class luxury with high-quality, durable material. You’re assured of a great, comfortable drive and ride experience every single time.  Nissan has improved the Infiniti considerably over its predecessor, making it quite a compelling choice among its prominent rivals in the segment. So, what did we like?

Well, the QX80 undoubtedly scores a lot in its exterior design, followed by the promising twin-turbo V6 engine with mighty power. Then comes the pure luxury inside with an opulent and classy interior with some special features. We liked the SUV’s off-road capabilities, assisted by multiple drive modes, and even the city drive was pretty decent for a car of this size. However, there are a few areas that need a little attention, which is more important in overall refinement, given the price point, customers would frankly expect more in features and technologies already present. The QX80 has some very deserving rivals, but if you look beyond the traditional brand and are willing to bet on Nissan Infiniti, then the QX80 could be your pick.

Other Cars to Consider

• Cadillac Escalade: Segment leader known for its true luxury, space, distinct style and of course the powerful V8 engine.
• Mercedes-Benz GLS: The German luxury brand’s GLS is another great pick in the segment, which comes with refined handling, high-quality interiors, Mercedes' promise of performance.
• Lexus LX: You could also pick a Japanese rival, the LX from Lexus, which has a proven track record of reliability, off-road capability, and a luxurious cabin. 
• Lincoln Navigator: Another equally compelling choice from the American brand, where you’re offered a spacious interior and strong towing capacity.
• BMW X7: A sporty, fun-to-drive and huge SUV with a lot of tech.
