The 2027 INFINITI QX80 combines full-size three-row luxury with a 3.5L twin-turbo V6, advanced cabin technology, and towing capacity of up to 8,500 pounds when properly equipped. For Tulsa drivers shopping a premium flagship, the standout story is not just power. It is the range of available comfort, audio, suspension, and driver-assistance equipment that can make daily travel feel exceptional.

Twin-Turbo Power and Towing Capability

The current QX80 is powered by a 450-hp, 516-lb-ft 3.5L twin-turbo V6, paired with a nine-speed automatic transmission. The QX80's maximum tow rating reaches 8,500 pounds when properly equipped, although the limit for a particular vehicle depends on configuration and loading. Trailer brakes, hitch specifications, tongue weight, and payload must all be considered before hauling a boat or camper.

Available Electronic Air Suspension

Selected QX80 trims offer Electronic Air Suspension with Dynamic Digital Suspension. These systems can adjust ride height or damping according to driving conditions, helping the full-size SUV balance comfort and control. Feature availability varies by trim. Check the equipment list for the exact QX80 you are considering rather than assuming every model has air suspension.

Klipsch Audio and the Digital Cabin

The QX80 features a dual 14.3-inch display arrangement and Google built-in. An available 24-speaker Klipsch Reference Premiere audio system uses Individual Audio technology to direct selected sounds through headrest speakers. More basic trims have different speaker counts. The cabin also offers premium seating and climate-control features that vary by trim, including available Biometric Cooling.

ProPILOT Assist 2.1 and Driver Responsibility

Available ProPILOT Assist 2.1 supports hands-free operation in certain mapped, compatible highway conditions. It is a driver-assistance feature, not a self-driving system. The driver must remain attentive and ready to take control, and the system's availability depends on vehicle equipment, roadway conditions, and other operating restrictions. Other available camera technologies, such as Invisible Hood View, can help when maneuvering at low speeds.
