by New 2026 Infiniti QX80: Updates and Changes
Infiniti has introduced the updated 2026 QX80, which has received a new Sport trim. This version features dark exterior elements, Y-spoke alloy wheels, and a two-tone interior. The model’s price has increased by $1,300, and the destination fee has gone up by $195.
The QX80 became one of the few models in the brand’s lineup to show sales growth in the first half of the year—by 47.1%. This indicates its popularity among buyers, so Infiniti continues to develop the lineup.
Features of the Sport Trim
The QX80 Sport looks more aggressive thanks to a revised grille, a unique front bumper, and 22-inch wheels. Dark accents are present on the mirrors, roof rails, emblems, and other elements. Four body colors are available, including Mineral Black, Radiant White, Grand Blue, and Dynamic Metal, with three of them offering an optional black roof.
The interior features Dusk Blue upholstery with semi-aniline leather in black and blue, diamond-quilted seat perforation, and open-pore dark ash wood trim.
Technical Specifications and Prices
The QX80 Sport is equipped with two 14.3-inch screens, a 9-inch climate control display, a head-up display, heated and ventilated seats, a 24-speaker Klipsch audio system, and 64-color ambient lighting. Under the hood is a twin-turbo 3.5-liter V6 producing 450 horsepower, paired with a 9-speed automatic transmission and all-wheel drive.
The base QX80 now starts at $83,750, which is $1,300 more than the previous model. The Sport trim is priced at $101,950, and the top-tier Autograph trim at $111,500. The destination fee is $2,190.
The updated QX80 will arrive at dealerships in late summer. The price increase may affect demand, however, inflation and rising production costs make such changes expected for the premium segment.
