INFINITI QX80

2026 INFINITI QX80 LUXE 4WD — CANADIAN SPECIFICATION

ENGINE AND DRIVETRAIN

The QX80 LUXE is powered by INFINITI's VR35DDTT 3.5-litre twin-turbocharged V6, displacing 3,500 cc with direct injection and a pair of turbochargers. Output is 450 hp (336 kW) and 700 Nm (516 lb-ft) of torque. Drive goes through a 9-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters to INFINITI All-Mode 4WD. The seller's own equipment note for this unit confirms the configuration: 3.5L V6 biturbo, LUXE grade, 9-speed automatic transmission. A Drive Mode Selector offers Standard, Eco, Sport, Snow, Tow and Personal settings. The fuel tank holds 89 litres and the filler is capless. INFINITI Canada publishes fuel consumption of 15.0 L/100 km city, 12.3 L/100 km highway and 13.8 L/100 km combined; these manufacturer figures are quoted here in preference to the marketplace listing's 14.7 / 12.4 / 13.7. No verified NRCan CO2 emissions figure is published for this grade, so none is stated. An engine block heater is fitted as Canadian-market standard equipment.

CHASSIS, STEERING AND BRAKES

The QX80 rides on Electronic Air Suspension combined with Dynamic Digital Suspension, with ride height and drive mode selectable from the lower 9-inch touchscreen alongside the climate controls. Wheels are 22-inch alloys on 275/50R22 all-season tyres, with a temporary alloy spare carried on board. The steering wheel is leather-wrapped and heated, mounted on a power tilt and telescopic column with entry/exit assist that retracts the column and driver's seat on exit. Braking and stability equipment comprises anti-lock brakes, Vehicle Dynamic Control, the Traction Control System, an electronic parking brake with hold function, and Hill Start Assist with auto hold.

DIMENSIONS AND CAPACITIES

Overall length is 5,365 mm on a 3,075 mm wheelbase. Two width figures apply and both matter for shipping: 2,115 mm across the body with the mirrors folded, and 2,350 mm with the mirrors open — use the folded figure for container planning and the open figure for handling clearance. Height likewise depends on the air suspension setting: 1,980 mm at the high setting with roof rails, and 1,945 mm at the low setting. Track width is 1,728–1,731 mm at the front and 1,724–1,728 mm at the rear. Published curb weight is 2,698 kg, with a 52 / 48 front-to-rear weight distribution. INFINITI Canada publishes no gross vehicle weight rating for this grade, so none is stated here. Cargo volume is 623 litres behind the third row, 1,670 litres with the third row folded and 2,860 litres with both the second and third rows folded — the manufacturer's figures, quoted in preference to the marketplace listing's 577 litres. Front legroom is 1,113 mm and second-row legroom 996 mm. The body is a four-door wagon layout with a motion-activated power liftgate.

EXTERIOR

The unit is finished in Black Obsidian. Lighting is fully LED: automatic on/off high and low beam headlights with High Beam Assist, an Adaptive Front Light System with auto-levelling, sequential welcome lighting on approach, an illuminated front grille emblem, and a full-width taillight bar built from more than 300 LEDs. The body carries flush door handles, chrome exterior trim, body-colour running boards, silver roof rails, a rear spoiler with high-mounted stop lamp, and rear privacy glass with an infrared cut. Mirrors are heated, power-folding and automatically folding, with integrated turn signals and reverse tilt-down. Cold-weather glazing equipment includes a front windscreen heater and wiper de-icer, rain-sensing variable intermittent front wipers, and a concealed rear wiper with rear defroster. A power sliding tinted glass moonroof is fitted with tilt function and sliding sunshades.

INTERIOR AND SEATING

Seating is a three-row, eight-seat 2-3-3 layout. The LUXE grade carries the 60/40 split-folding second-row bench, which slides and reclines; second-row captain's chairs are listed as Not Available on this grade by INFINITI Canada, which is why the capacity is eight rather than seven. The third row is TailorFit, power-reclining and power-folding, with one-touch easy third-row access. First and second rows are leather-appointed in Graphite with a grey headliner and aluminium interior trim. Front seats are 10-way power adjustable with 4-way power lumbar support and are climate-controlled — both heated and ventilated — as are the second-row outboard seats. Dual occupant memory stores the driver's seat, mirror and steering wheel positions. Climate control is Tri-Zone Automatic Temperature Control with a microfilter, supported by LED ambient lighting, auto-dimming interior and driver-side mirrors, power windows with one-touch auto up/down and auto-reverse, a lockable glovebox, a front centre console with armrest, eight cup holders and four bottle holders, a 120 V outlet in the cargo area, and front and rear carpeted floor mats.

INFOTAINMENT AND CONNECTIVITY

The dashboard carries a dual 14.3-inch display pair, with a separate 9-inch touchscreen below for climate, drive modes and air suspension. Google is built in, with Google Maps, Google Assistant and Google Play included for five years, alongside wireless Apple CarPlay and wireless Android Auto, Bluetooth and factory navigation. Audio is a Klipsch 14-speaker Premium Audio system with Active Sound Enhancement, plus SiriusXM Satellite Radio with 360L and hybrid radio. A Head-Up Display is standard. Connectivity includes INFINITI InTouch telematics with a 5G Wi-Fi hotspot, Alexa Built-in with hotword activation, the myQ connected garage door opener, a wireless charging pad and eight USB Type-C ports. Remote engine start operates from both the key fob and the MyINFINITI app, and the INFINITI Intelligent Key supports Approach Unlock and Walk Away Lock.

DRIVER ASSISTANCE AND SAFETY

ProPILOT Assist 1.1 combines adaptive cruise control with steering support in the lane. The wider suite comprises automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, Predictive Forward Collision Warning, Lane Departure Warning with Lane Keep Assist and Lane Departure Prevention, Blind Spot Warning with Blind Spot Intervention, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, rear automatic braking with pedestrian and cyclist detection, Traffic Sign Recognition, Driver Attention Alert, and front and rear sonar parking sensors. Camera coverage is a 3D Around View Monitor with Moving Object Detection and 360-degree spin capability, adding Front Wide View and Invisible Hood View. Passive protection is the INFINITI Advanced Airbag System with dual front airbags, driver and front passenger knee airbags, front seat-mounted side-impact airbags and roof-mounted curtain airbags covering all three rows, with first- and second-row seatbelt pretensioners and load limiters, LATCH child seat anchorages in the second and third rows, occupant monitoring with child presence detection and Rear Door Alert, child safety rear door locks, a direct tyre pressure monitoring system, and the Vehicle Security Alarm with INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System. The selling dealer additionally fits a TAG anti-theft protection system to this unit. No NHTSA, IIHS or Transport Canada crash rating has been published for the 2026 model year, so none is quoted.

TOWING AND CAPABILITY

Maximum towing capacity is 3,856 kg (8,500 lb) when the vehicle is properly equipped with an electric trailer brake controller and a weight-distribution hitch. A Class IV tow hitch with a 7-pin wiring harness is fitted, and the Drive Mode Selector includes a dedicated Tow mode. Trailer-specific driver aids comprise Trailer Blind Spot Warning, Trailer Stability Assist and Trailer Back-Up Assist. Off-tarmac and low-traction capability comes from INFINITI All-Mode 4WD, the Snow drive mode, Hill Start Assist with auto hold, and the ride-height range of the Electronic Air Suspension.
