Should I Buy the 2022 Infiniti QX80?
The QX80 is upscale, powerful, comfortable and offers solid towing capability. The new 12.3-inch touchscreen helps modernize the cabin. The third row is a little cozy for adults, however, and while cargo space behind the third row may be fine for routine errands, it might be tight for long-distance family road trips. The V-8 engine delivers a lot of grunt, but it also uses a lot of gas.
