The all-new 2025 INFINITI QX80 continues to earn industry acclaim, taking home Best-In-Class Premium Full-Size SUV honors in the 2025 New England Motor Press Association (NEMPA) Winter Vehicle Awards.

Engineered to lead in both luxury and performance, the QX80 impressed NEMPA judges with its bold styling, powerful twin-turbo engine, and segment-first technologies designed for confident driving in all conditions. Vehicles in the Winter Vehicle Awards undergo rigorous testing through New England’s harshest months, evaluating performance, safety, and reliability in real-world winter scenarios.

Clifford Atiyeh, NEMPA president, praised the SUV’s commanding presence and refined interior: “The new QX80 keeps its tough body-on-frame bones while dramatically improving ride comfort and handling—an impressive feat for such a large SUV. The AUTOGRAPH interior feels especially sumptuous, with deep carpets, heated leather seating to the third row, and elegant wood and metal details. Many premium SUVs cost $100,000, but the QX80 is among the few that feel worth it.”

Built on INFINITI’s Artistry in Motion design philosophy, the 2025 QX80 combines a powerful, upright stance with a serene, tech-integrated cabin. Safety innovations such as ProPILOT Assist 2.1, Invisible Hood View, 3D Around View®, Predictive Forward Collision Warning, and Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection provide drivers and passengers with confidence on every journey.

“The QX80 represents the very best of what INFINITI stands for—bold design, expert craftsmanship, advanced capability, and an unwavering commitment to our clients,” said Tiago Castro, vice president, INFINITI Americas. “This recognition is especially meaningful given the importance of the Northeast region, where winter performance and year-round comfort are essential.”

Now available at INFINITI retailers nationwide, the 2025 QX80 sets a bold new direction for the brand—delivering luxury, capability, and innovation that feel truly world-class.
