The 2020 QX80 starts at $ 66,750, and comes with a correspondingly decent suite of standard features.
For 2020, Android Auto and Apple CarPlay have finally been added to the QX80, as standard features no less. There are plenty of options to be had on Infiniti’s big SUV, but some are better picks than others.
We give the QX80 points above average for good base content, good features, and its standard 8.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. We land at an 8 out of 10 for features.
Infiniti breaks down the QX80 into several different variants, but there are really only two fundamental trims: base (“Luxe”) and Limited. Four-wheel drive can be added to the Luxe for $ 3,100; it’s standard on the Limited.
Luxe models also get 20-inch wheels, a power liftgate, power-adjustable heated front seats, leather upholstery, second row captain’s chairs, power-folding third-row seats, Bose premium audio, forward-collision warnings with automatic emergency braking, and an 8.0-inch touchscreen for infotainment with navigation and Bluetooth connectivity.
Springing for the Limited will put you over the $ 90,000 mark. For that, you get open-pore wood, Nappa leather, heated and cooled front seats, heated second-row seats, dual 8.0-inch screens for rear seat entertainment, an adaptive suspension and the full suite of active safety features.
You can build out a Luxe model with many of the Limited’s niceties, but you’ll pay through the nose if you’re hunting after specific features, as Infiniti makes many of its packages dependent on others.
Infiniti has taken a lot of flack for the performance and features of its infotainment system over the years, but for 2020 it finally gets a new, high-def display with a laundry list of new features, including the aforementioned smartphone integration.
The instrument cluster has also been replaced for 2020; it’s now a 7.0-inch digital color display.
