The allure of the all-new 2025 INFINITI QX80 extends beyond its design – right down to its powertrain that produces a powerful, rewarding drive. Set to debut on March 20, the all-new 2025 INFINITI QX80 delivers confidence and capability with a meticulously engineered powertrain and chassis.
Effortless power
The heart of the all-new QX80 is a refined and efficient VR35DDTT 3.5-liter twin-turbocharged engine, which is rated for an impressive 450 horsepower and 516 lb-ft of torque. This represents an increase of 50 horsepower and 103 lb-ft compared to the current generation. Complementing the powerful engine is a 9-speed automatic transmission with a 40% wider gear ratio range, offering both responsive acceleration and efficient highway cruising. Additionally, at highway speeds, active grille shutters close to reduce aerodynamic drag and aid fuel consumption. With these advancements, the new powertrain is projected to deliver improved acceleration and greater fuel economy than the outgoing V8, allowing owners to go farther and explore more.
Quiet confidence
Intensive attention has been given to delivering a serenely quiet cabin and refined experience for all passengers. The all-new QX80 features greater torsional rigidity, contributing to a significantly quieter cabin. Whether cruising on the highway or navigating city streets, the QX80 ensures a smooth and tranquil ride.
Smoothing the road
To cater to every driving situation, the all-new QX80 offers newly available Electronic Air Suspension and Dynamic Digital Suspension technologies. These systems work together to adapt the vehicle’s performance to the exact driving conditions. In pursuit of INFINITI’s aim of delivering thoughtful hospitality, the air suspension automatically lowers when the vehicle is parked, making it easier to enter, load, or unload luggage. Meanwhile, Dynamic Digital Suspension constantly evaluates the vehicle’s motions to reduce body motion, enhancing driver confidence and ensuring passenger comfort over long journeys.
“As a driver, the QX80’s impressive new powertrain gives you the feeling that you always have power in reserve, even while accelerating,” said Ivan Espinosa, senior vice president, Global Product Strategy and Product Planning. “No need to worry about lag—it’s always in the right gear, delivering a powerful driving experience.”
