The 2026 INFINITI QX80 boldly elevates the luxury SUV space with intuitive technology that improves every trip, highly crafted design that makes a bold impression and a commanding driving experience to conquer the commute. This year, QX80 builds on its stunning Artistry in Motion design with the luxury flagship’s first-ever SPORT grade. Giving QX80 its sleekest, most dynamic appearance to date, the SPORT grade exemplifies INFINITI’s focus on delivering bold style that speaks to the tastes of luxury SUV drivers.

“A year after its dramatic introduction, the INFINITI QX80 continues to elevate the standard in luxury SUVs, thrilling INFINITI clients with bold design and technology, while propelling strong sales at INFINITI retailers,” said Tiago Castro, vice president, INFINITI Americas. “We know that luxury drivers are looking to make a bold entrance wherever they go, so for 2026 we are dramatically amplifying QX80’s Artistry in Motion styling with a SPORT grade offering a sleek, darkened appearance.”

Introduced last year with a striking all-new design, QX80 continues to reset the benchmark for full-size luxury SUVs with intelligent, integrated technology; a commanding driving experience; and understated yet precisely crafted style. It delivers extraordinary comfort, convenience and technology for all three rows – a first-class experience for all on board.

The 2026 INFINITI QX80 is offered in PURE, LUXE, SPORT and AUTOGRAPH grades. The 2026 INFINITI QX80 will reach retailers late summer 2025, with Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Prices (MSRP) starting at $83,7501.

QX80 SPORT: A masterclass in boldness
The dramatic makeover for QX80 SPORT begins with a new front grille, a restyled front bumper and a unique 22-inch wheel design. The exterior is replete with darkened elements: exterior trim, mirror caps, lower bumper finishers, roof rails and emblems. Within the cabin, the SPORT treatment includes a stunning Dusk Blue color scheme, with dark matte chrome accents, graphite for the headliner and pillars, open pore wood trim for the instrument panel and doors, and black/blue seat inserts, including unique diamond-pattern perforation. The effect is dramatic yet restrained, amplifying the purposeful nature of QX80’s confident posture, strong lines and well-defined proportions.

QX80 SPORT is available in Mineral Black, Radiant White, Grand Blue or Dynamic Metal; the latter three can optionally be paired with a contrasting Black Obsidian roof.
