NEW YORK CITY — If Infiniti has its way, the all-new 2025 QX80 will be the flagship SUV that leads Nissan’s luxury marque into a much-needed renaissance. By the time the 2025 QX80 debuts, the current generation will have been on the market for 15 years. The model dates to 2010, when it debuted as the QX56 .
The thin lights flanking the grille are DRLs, while the QX80’s real headlights are embedded in nooks just above vents on either side of the front fascia. Happily, those vents are functional, directing cooling air to beefy two-pot calipers and 13-inch discs. Likewise, the driver’s side fender vent acts as a heat extractor.
We don’t know specific differences between Patrol and QX80 yet, but if they’re anything like their predecessors, the Nissan will be rugged while the Infiniti pampers. Previous Patrols had mountain-cresting features like larger fuel tanks, increased ground clearance and locking differentials. QX80s, on the other hand, were geared for better fuel economy and comfort during highway driving. We have no reason to doubt this will continue.
Inside, drivers are treated to semi-aniline leather seats, ambient lighting and trim comprised of open-pore ash wood or laser-etched metal inlays depending on grade. A Klipsch audio system with up to 1200 watts and 24 speakers marks the home theater brand’s first foray into the automotive realm. The system includes speakers embedded in the driver’s headrest, which pipe phone calls and nav instructions into the driver’s ears without disrupting the audio for other occupants.
Cameras also let drivers select Front Wide View, which displays a 170-degree on the infotainment screen to see around tight corners, or Invisible Hood View, which displays the road as if the nose isn’t even there. The latter could save families from the growing epidemic of front blind spot accidents. An on-board 8-GB hard drive lets these cameras record up to one minute segments on both ends of the car, acting as a built-in dash cam.
