In addition, the car received an updated palette of colors available for painting the body, as well as another shade of the interior - in addition to beige and black, the QX80 interior can be brown. Regardless of the configuration, the QX80 is equipped with a 5.6-liter V8 rated at 405 liters. with. and a 7-band automatic. All-wheel drive transmission is an All Mode 4x4 system with a multi-plate clutch that can connect front wheels forcibly or automatically. The number of seats is seven or eight, depending on the performance. The standard equipment of the Infiniti QX80 includes LED headlights, headlight washers, front and rear fog lights, LED taillights, folding electric mirrors, heated sunroof, power tailgate, heated washer nozzles. The leather interior is equipped with climate control, heated steering wheel, first and second row of seats, DVD, navigation, all-round cameras, Bose premium audio system with 13 speakers, built-in monitors for rear passengers and many other functions, the list of which is impressive.

There are two options for the layout of the cabin: 2 + 2 + 3 and 2 + 3 + 3, with a decent supply of space for each of the rows. The top equipment is characterized by an extensive list of driver assistance systems, Bose Cabin Surround 5 audio systems. 1 with 15 speakers for the purest sound possible.

 A powerful power unit serves to move this 5.3-meter giant weighing almost 2.8 tons - this is the VK56VD series engine, based on the engine of the previous VK56DE series. Initially, this power plant was used on the Nissan Armada, but for the luxury model QX56 it was reworked twice, so now the engine power reaches 405 hp, and the maximum torque is 560 Nm. The engine is distinguished by direct fuel injection, a system for changing the valve timing on all camshafts, as well as a system for changing the lift height of the VVEL valves. In combination with this engine and a 7-speed automatic transmission, the Infiniti QX accelerates to a maximum speed of 210 km / h, and from zero to 100 km / h accelerates in just 6.5 seconds. Gasoline consumption is 20.6 l / 100 km in the urban cycle and 11 l / 100 km in the countryside. The fuel tank has a capacity of 100 liters.

 The Infiniti QX80 has an independent spring suspension on the double wishbones at the front and independent, pneumatic, on the double wishbones at the rear, this combination provides high smoothness and excellent handling in its class. Pneumatic rear suspension features maintain constant ground clearance. The car is deprived of such a familiar thing as anti-roll bars. Instead, the hydraulic system Hydraulic Body Motion Control fights against rolls: the hydraulic cylinders of the shock absorbers are connected to each other and to the hydraulic accumulators via highways, the system functions by flowing fluid, depending on the load on a particular shock absorber. The All-Mode 4WD drive system is capable of real-time calculating the required tractive effort and instantly respond to changing conditions. In AUTO mode - automatically distributes torque between the front and rear wheels for better handling and dynamic acceleration, in addition, 2WD, 4WD High and 4WD Low modes are provided. With dynamic stabilization systems (VDC), brake force distribution (EBD) and braking assistance (BA), as well as traction control (TCS) and anti-lock braking (ABS) systems, the Infiniti QX80 will allow the driver to feel confident in any road conditions. The standard equipment also includes rain and light sensors, a set of six airbags (front, front side, full-size curtains), active head restraints, child seat mounts, parking sensors, headlight delay function, adaptive road lighting, tire pressure sensors. The Hi-tech configuration does not have to pay extra for the presence of all kinds of assistants included in the Safety Shield active safety systems (intelligent cruise control, lane and dead zone control systems, and preventing collisions with obstacles when moving forward and backward). Infiniti QX80 - a typical American car, created by Japanese engineers, and at the same time perfectly suitable for Russian conditions. In the minuses, they usually note insufficient visibility, large overhangs and low-profile R22 wheels, more suitable for the highway (even despite the well-balanced driving characteristics, the chassis is noticeably stiff on the side road). In the pros, experts note the excellent dynamics, convenient controls, large capacity, as well as the presence of one of the most powerful V8 engine in the class. From the point of view of comfort, the best choice would be a seven-seater equipment with “captain's” seats of the second row.
