Assessment
Shopper Information has been afforded by Infiniti a second take a look at the model’s totally up to date 2025 QX80 Premium Giant SUV, and we stay impressed. This hasn’t all the time been the case. We discovered the previous-generation QX80 mechanically crude, profoundly inefficient, and wanting for inside house. That each one modified for 2025.
The brand new turbocharged V6 serves up extra energy than the outgoing V8, and it makes use of much less gasoline. The brand new drivetrain can also be very refined, although is susceptible to some undesirable surging in low-speed driving. Not all of our testers made observe of the phenomenon, however we propose taking the QX80 for an prolonged check drive, if the truck is in your quick checklist. You possibly can learn our full evaluate of the 2025 QX80 Autograph right here.
Be aware, our most-recent check drive concerned extra metropolis driving, and with it an anticipated drop in noticed gas economic system. Nonetheless, on this class, 16 mpg is completely respectable, particularly given the QX80’s potent V6.
