Hey guys what's up it's syed faizan from ratey's rides we're here in austin texas for the official texas truck rodeo but don't have a truck for you i have a full-size luxury suv this is a refresh updated 2022 infiniti qx80 sensory trim but before we get into this body on frame full size suv let's talk about what's going on here infiniti they've been around since 1989 if you could believe that.
        So many years so many great models this qx80 is the largest  infiniti that they've ever built and  sold and you know what for 2022 they've  made some changes not only to the  exterior but also to the interior to  really kind of bring things together  before a major redesign now of course in  this full-size luxury suv segment  there's a lot of key players  navigator escalade the new grand  wagoneer of course you look over at  lexus and their 570 there's so many to  choose from has infinity done enough  and are they the king  of the full-size suvs let's go ahead  let's dive into this 2022  sensory trim and find out right off the  bat the color i think that white and  gray  fit the lines of this  full-size suv very very well now when we  start at the front of the business  you're going to notice our headlight  housing we're going to have led  projector beam style headlight  led daytime running lamp and turn signal  love the style that they're using on  these 2022 headlight housings  everything is blacked out except for  just a little bit of chrome finish just  to kind of sparkle things up dropping  our way down what do we have we do have  some more exterior lighting which is  great but we do have a fake van it would  have been nice for this to be a  functional air curtain side air curtain  but it is non-functional so we are going  to have to give it a slight zonk but  what's great is the way they balance  that chrome finish that shiny chrome  finish with the rest of what's going on.
                 In the vehicle now as we come across the massive front end here you're going to  have that traditional  shape to the infinity grill they do a  great job on their grill design the way  that they form that perimeter with the  shiny chrome finish there's that iconic  infinity badge and then you see that  wave action on this 2022 qx80 they  actually designed the grill from waves  in the ocean it's got a nice gunmetal  metallic gray finish almost kind of  matches the exterior color of our  particular qx80 you do have a  forward-facing camera which is  phenomenal and then like i said that  shiny chrome finish just enough we do  have functionality in this lower section  with the flat black but definitely large  and in charge and when you're looking at  these full-size suvs that's how they  tend to be  from the front now when you get up onto  the hood  nice slight rise in the trim goes right  into the hood and then fades away the  rest is going to rise up like the ocean  and then fade away towards the a-pillars  it actually gives you great  visual references for when you're  driving from behind the wheel now as we  come around the bend let's talk about  wheel and tire setup on this beast so  this is what we're looking at beautiful  dark chrome finish love that nice shine  that they have now please excuse the  dirt and the dust we're here in austin  texas like i said for the truck rodeo  we've been doing a little bit of  off-roading and things have gotten a  little dirty  i don't have my usual cleaning supplies  so just please excuse the dirt and dust  while we continue working in this  construction zone but this is going to  be a 22 inch wheel  love the style especially with our  particular color 275 on the width and a  nice meaty 50 series sidewall you can  see all the suspension bits up top  with the upper control arm and your  shock absorbers all four corners  and the way that they have the nice  painted fender flare really gives it a  cohesive look and a lot of style now as.
                      We rise up guess what we do have a  functional side fender vent a little bit  more chrome would have been nice to have  a v8 badge in here because guess what  underneath that hood we got naturally  aspirated v8 power chrome finish on your  mirror caps  i'm loving the blacked out eight pillar  right next to that chrome finish on the  mirror cap with the turn signal but the  black a pillar really kind of gives it a  nice overall perspective and look  especially with the very very flat roof  line that nice boxy style that a lot of  people are loving it's coming back  around and this qx80 is hitting the nail  on the head with that style you do have  your 360 degree camera stationary  integrated running boards i like the way  the fender flare flows down into the  running board allows you to have that  nice little step as you're getting in we  do have chrome finish on the door  handles  bright shiny metal work top and bottom  and you'll notice the bright  silver metallic look at this thing this  thing is a beast  roof rails up top with the cross bars  you could put your kayaks up there you  could put your cargo basket your cargo  carrier  if your kids are misbehaving maybe you  could even put them up there if you  wanted to not sure if that's legal you  didn't hear it from me  massive glass allows you to have nice  visibility also feel nice and airy  inside  love the fender flare style those 22  inch wheels of course we have 4x4  all-wheel drive getting us to the ground  and as we come around the tail of the  business what are we looking at here  you're going to have a very very short  stubby roof spoiler massive rear glass  window i wish as you know we could put  this somewhere there's just not anywhere  we could really hide that rear wiper but  you do have that infinity badge  love the way it's got that style where  it rises up in the center the infinity  name and the trim cleans it up there's  our four wheel drive badge with our led  lighting  and then of course qx80 and this nice  brushed aluminum finish especially for  those kids that are pulling their junk  out of the back you don't want them to  scratch your nice bumper so it's nice to  have this aluminum panel here to protect  the bumper plus it looks really really  good and then as we drop all the way  down  you'll notice that we do have that cover  that is going to hide the whole towing  hookup and what's wonderful is you don't  have any exhaust just hanging down you  have your outlet over here  everything is smooth no fake exhaust or  anything like that but while we go ahead  let's pop the hood and see what's  powering our infiniti qx80 all right  guys we got the hook pop you do have  your hydraulic hood struts underneath  the hood is a massive engine cover but  the good news is it looks tasteful it's  got the infinity badge the v8 badge  because underneath that hood we have v8  power you're looking at a 5.6 liter  naturally aspirated v8 400 horsepower  413 pound-feet of torque it is made into  a very very durable seven speed  automatic transmission  believe it or not  zero to 60 in this thing around 5.8  seconds quarter mile 14.8 seconds top  speed  133 miles per hour  mpgs just plug your ears if you don't  want to hear the mpgs  or i could direct you to a toyota prius  mpg is 13 in the city 19 on the highway  this vehicle weighs  6054 pounds but guess what can tow 8 500 pounds nice to have that naturally  aspirated power yes some of the  competition also has naturally aspirated  v8 power but while we go ahead let's  fire it up and hear what it sounds like  all right guys we're inside this 2022  infiniti qx80 top sensory trim i know  you're seeing yourself with joe there's  a lot of competition in this full-size  luxury suv segment i really don't know  which way to go but i'm definitely  digging the naturally aspirated  horsepower and i'm very curious to find  out what the touches are on the interior  of this particular model but how much is  it msrp for the way that this one is  optioned is right around eighty five  thousand dollars let's see what you get  for the money to the door panels.
                           Absolutely exquisite material on the  door panels you get that nice leather  the stitch work even the way they did  that diamond stitching design there  looks classy looks different you're  going to get a finish that looks like  gloss black but it actually has like a  granite feel to it  very classy and the great news is you're  not going to touch it so you don't have  to worry about fingerprints we got the  optional bose sound system really really  digging that aluminum speaker grille  cover and then that door pocket is texas  size you could put a full rack of ribs  and  a corn on the cob in there plus a nice  large bottle of freshly squeezed milk  from one of these cows on these local  ranches out here now going from the door  panel to the dash  more of that granite finish love  how everything just has a nice smooth  touch to it  the tan with the black makes everything  pop especially with the contrast  stitching and then guess what all new  for 2022 we got a 12.3 inch infotainment  system it is a touch screen navigation  of course apple carplay android auto you  want to make the map larger real simple  very very intuitive and then what i  really like is that there's a lot of  different functions that some of the  auto manufacturers don't have fuel  prices you're trying to make sure you  get the cheapest price you could scroll  and see how far the station is as you  can see very fast  reaction how about if you're a sports.
             Fan you go into the different football  games you could scroll very easily see  what's scheduled see who won and then  like i was saying when it comes to the  swipe look how as you control your  finger that's the one i was looking for  tampa bay bucks tom brady beating his  old buddies the new england patriots so  nice to have that information throw it  into reverse what do we got we got  a grainy backup camera that does not  take up this full  space i understand i gotta check  surroundings for safety but i would like  to be a little bit more safe and have  some visual real estate now the good  news is you could change camera views  very very easily out the front out the  back you can see those 22 inch wheels  bling bling  nice setup but i would like that to be a  little bit larger if you got 12 inches  use the 12 inches you're a lucky camper  to have that infotainment that size now  working your way down some gloss black  with your radio controls i like the way  the ac vents are kind of just like nice  and slim in there you do have dual  climate very easy to operate plus you're  going to have ventilated seats heated  seats of course a heated steering wheel  more of that granite wood finish watch  this  push the button opens up you got  wireless charging a 12 volt and i like  the fact that you could hide it away  usbc usb  that is your 4x4 mode selector so we  could go from four high to four low snow  and tow mode this is going to control  that seven speed automatic transmission  and i love the way they brought the soft  touch material with all the stitch work  looking great.
                  Open that up we got our two cup holders  and you're gonna have that  traditional infinity key fob i wish that  they would upgrade it this has been  around actually noah had one of these  for his arc when he was doing his thing  so i would like to see this updated the  good news is it's very light though so i  do like the way it's small and light  close it up you have your little drive  control controller knob for the  infotainment system which is wonderful  nice soft touch the piping is exquisite  and then we open this up what do we got  you got a nice little place to put your  buffalo nickels we're here in texas a  lot of buffalo but you're collecting  buffalo nickels they won't get scratched  and then you have enough room in there  for a cowboy to put his spurs  very very easily  nice setup i'm going to drop this back  down closing up seats i want to thank  all the cows that sacrificed their lives  for this leather super soft the stitch  work the piping of course you're gonna  get full electric assist for the  passenger driver  the only thing that we're gonna finish  on is a zonk though because you're  getting a standard size sunroof no  panoramic but guess what technology we  got our digital rear view mirror so nice  to have that especially in a vehicle  that is full size have that digital  camera out the back and you can put it  back on mirror and stare at yourself all  day but why don't you come over here to  the business end i want to show you guys  business time behind this qx80 you can  see the nice aluminum sill plate that's  gonna greet you with the infinity name  that lights up led at night nice to have  that greeting let you know you did it  right with your purchase you do have  full seat controls especially that lower  lumbar i'm six feet tall and i'm  swimming in space in here so tons of  room.
                           Just wish there was a panoramic sunroof  but loving the steering wheel especially  with that granite wood style finish all  the way around the outside look at that  round and around and around we go  top of that we brought some stitch work  to the horn butt see this one i'm  telling you when you add a little bit of  stitching to the horn button it really  brings up the level of feel fit and  finish you do have an electric tilting  and telescoping steering wheel which is  wonderful and then the dash very very  familiar so it would have been nice to  have a 12-inch digital display like in  the pathfinder but what do we have we  have a analog tach analog speedometer  and then in the center there you do have  a large digital display where you do  have auxiliary gauges you can go through  your safety features obviously you're  going to get the whole suite of safety  features in this infiniti  nice to have that set up would have been  nice to have an all-new steering wheel  and a new dash let me know what you  think about those two pieces how you  feel about that i like analog gauges so  i'm fine with it but why don't we go  ahead let's go to the mid row and see  how your cowboys and cowgirls are going  to be like sitting back there while  they're hauled around hi guys we're in  the mid row of this 2022 infiniti qx80  and i'm telling you the amount of room  back here is phenomenal  you know what i would like a little bit  of panoramic sunroof but on the backs of  the headrest you do have eight inch  monitors with all the plug-ins which are  really nice and then look at how they  took the stitch work and did it so  exquisite all the way down to the pocket  now in this pocket you could easily put  a rattlesnake or two  my advice is make sure the rattlesnake  is sleeping before you touch the  rattlesnake  i can't vouch for what's going to happen  if your rattlesnake wakes up just  something to know about  back of this command center we do have  heated seats no ventilated seats and  that's probably going to be the other  zonk for this mid row i would like to  have some ventilated seats but we got  usbs and then watch this this is smart a  nice little cubby to where you could go.
                       Ahead and maybe put some geckos in here  and some lizards that you found and  store them in there give them a little  bit of food and then you could always  check on them hey are they still there  yes they are they're not running around  the interior way down below  we got a home power source  and if i could get it a 12 volt  don't put your lizard in there  you may not have a lizard for very long  but the amount of room like i was saying  is very very substantial you got this  captain's chair arraignment arrangement  because look at this two cupholders you  could sip on your that freshly squeezed  milk i was telling you about right out  of the utter  piping  stitching  easily put a small cowboy hat in here  but what we do have are the wireless  headsets and you know how i feel about  these  you can listen to  watch some john wayne movies maybe some  bonanza  right on your eight inch screen  i'm going to take them off because i  feel like they make me even talk even  louder but watch this you like secret  compartments  abracadabra hocus pocus yeehaw because  we're in austin  secret compartment put a bag of freaking  pig skins in here maybe some pork rinds  you could just grab them and go nice and  hidden so nobody else is getting into  your stuff  soft on the seats nice wide cushioning  and then guess what we do have a third  row it's a little tight compared to the  competition but let me show you how you  access it real simple wham bam  look at that now you can climb right in  and there are those rear seats for those  rear seat passengers the problem you're.
                          Going to have is if you're tall like me  your knees are going to be in your mouth  so you might not be able to eat that  rack of ribs because you're going to be  munching on your knees but  it is nice to have that third row but if  you're ready let's check out the cargo  area and see how much we could haul  in our qx80 all right guys time to get  in that massive cargo area we're gonna  hit the button  nice electric assist you get a little  beep and a beep beep beep to let you  know move your head out of the way so  you don't bang your coconut on the hatch  what we have are the rear seats up for  you now on the driver's side you do have  a 12 volt  and i really want to show how much space  there was so that's 17 cubic feet of  space with the seats up now when it  comes to folding the seats down what's  nice is you have the switch gear here  you can actually tilt the seat back if  you want  when you're sitting there to give that  rear passenger some extra room or it's  just one touch  and the seats will actually fold all the  way down now while those are folding  down i do want to showcase the nice  large cubby area underneath the cargo  floor my advice put the kids lego pieces  in here  if you don't you're going to be stepping  all over them and breaking your feet so  on a family road trip keep all those  lego pieces in there but now we have the  seats folded down you can see how much  room there is you could then obviously  fold down that mid-row as well we're  also going to take a second to showcase  the cup holders back here you got your  seat controls on that switch gear  nicely placed and then up top we do have  rear ac which is wonderful the bad news  and the zonk is there's no connectivity  back here  so would be nice to have a usb  or even a usbc would be better but i'm  surprised it did not give us any  connectivity so that's going to be a  zonk but you know what  we have  naturally aspirated v8 power if you're  ready  this guy's ready let's go on throttle in  our infinity qxa guys we're inside this  2022  infiniti qx80  really really nice  wide open space i feel  like the king of a castle  with the comfort of the seat  the new infotainment system the new  digital rear view mirror  i love the way you could switch it  any which way you want  which really allows for the  personalization  and the gauges  i'm gonna say it again i'm fine with the  analog  gauges with that large seven inch  digital display you get a great view  being in this full-size  suv  everything is well laid out.
              Is it perfect  no  but neither is the cadillac escalade and  for those who  aren't so  infotainment hungry for screen size this  12.3 inch is easy to get to  easy to use and like i said it's got  wireless apple carplay wireless android  auto  let me uh slow down a little bit i just  want to  show you the flexibility of this  naturally aspirated v8 in this infinity  odd throttle here we go  drops down and we are off and running  i love the smooth shifts  and i'm telling you this thing be it  builds steam  so quickly  so smoothly  and  you still got that 8500 pound towing  capacity  you'll notice how i pointed out earlier  you have that unique shape  to the infinity hoods really allows you  to  be able to keep it in the lane properly  you got good reference points and it  actually does not feel  as big  of an suv as you're driving it going  down the road steering has a nice  light  direct  connection to the front wheels  and then  when you got to go into that four high  and four low you're able to get to that  aluminum style knob very very easily  and the seven speed automatic it may  have three less gears  than what's in the escalade but  it still gets the job done  very nicely  sound deadening i could feel the  difference because i'm not hearing  what's going on outside  and that's phenomenal when you think  about those 22-inch wheels and tires  and everything else pulling away from  the light  very easily done  making basically almost a u-turn  getting on to this other road here  but just  incredible how they're able to take this  very very what could be a very rugged  off-road suv if you need it  and allow you to  drive it every day  and not feel  like you're in this big humongous thing  it feels solid  you have a great view of everything  but uh  it's actually kind of light on its feet  and i like that about this infiniti qx80  and if this refresh is this good could  you imagine what it's going to be like  when the redesign comes  that's going to be  really really exciting all right we're  going on to this side street i'm going  to uh slow down a little bit to a stop  arthral here we go drops down and we are  off the nose points for the sky and we  are off and running  holds a line very very well you're not  getting a bunch of body roll which is  great too and you're getting that  naturally aspirated v8 engine let me  come to a stop again we're gonna  jump it over these uh railroad tracks  but uh odd throttle  nice  i mean look at this i'm in  a full-size body-on-frame suv and it  really really is handling nicely it's  also  riding really smooth  and very comfortable  it's crazy how that extra stitching on  the steering wheel really makes things  feel different but  i would like some different switch gear  and i really think your mid-rope  passengers are going to be very happy  it's just that third row it's going to  be on the tighter side so you're going  to want to keep it to uh some smaller  size  kids  or people or maybe a pet the family pet  put them in the back seat  but hopefully this gave you a nice  overall feel of what the qx80 is all  about with its updates and its refresh  we're gonna get back to where this all  started and wrap this one up so i'll see  you in a split second hey guys it's been  a wonderful day here in austin texas i  definitely got to thank aileen kyle and  the rest of the infinity crew for  getting us access to this 2022 qx80 let  me know what you think has infinity done.

                  Open that up we got our two cup holders  and you're gonna have that  traditional infinity key fob i wish that  they would upgrade it this has been  around actually noah had one of these  for his arc when he was doing his thing  so i would like to see this updated the  good news is it's very light though so i  do like the way it's small and light  close it up you have your little drive  control controller knob for the  infotainment system which is wonderful  nice soft touch the piping is exquisite  and then we open this up what do we got  you got a nice little place to put your  buffalo nickels we're here in texas a  lot of buffalo but you're collecting  buffalo nickels they won't get scratched  and then you have enough room in there  for a cowboy to put his spurs  very very easily  nice setup i'm going to drop this back  down closing up seats i want to thank  all the cows that sacrificed their lives  for this leather super soft the stitch  work the piping of course you're gonna  get full electric assist for the  passenger driver  the only thing that we're gonna finish  on is a zonk though because you're  getting a standard size sunroof no  panoramic but guess what technology we  got our digital rear view mirror so nice  to have that especially in a vehicle  that is full size have that digital  camera out the back and you can put it  back on mirror and stare at yourself all  day but why don't you come over here to  the business end i want to show you guys  business time behind this qx80 you can  see the nice aluminum sill plate that's  gonna greet you with the infinity name  that lights up led at night nice to have  that greeting let you know you did it  right with your purchase you do have  full seat controls especially that lower  lumbar i'm six feet tall and i'm  swimming in space in here so tons of  room.
                           Just wish there was a panoramic sunroof  but loving the steering wheel especially  with that granite wood style finish all  the way around the outside look at that  round and around and around we go  top of that we brought some stitch work  to the horn butt see this one i'm  telling you when you add a little bit of  stitching to the horn button it really  brings up the level of feel fit and  finish you do have an electric tilting  and telescoping steering wheel which is  wonderful and then the dash very very  familiar so it would have been nice to  have a 12-inch digital display like in  the pathfinder but what do we have we  have a analog tach analog speedometer  and then in the center there you do have  a large digital display where you do  have auxiliary gauges you can go through  your safety features obviously you're  going to get the whole suite of safety  features in this infiniti  nice to have that set up would have been  nice to have an all-new steering wheel  and a new dash let me know what you  think about those two pieces how you  feel about that i like analog gauges so  i'm fine with it but why don't we go  ahead let's go to the mid row and see  how your cowboys and cowgirls are going  to be like sitting back there while  they're hauled around hi guys we're in  the mid row of this 2022 infiniti qx80  and i'm telling you the amount of room  back here is phenomenal  you know what i would like a little bit  of panoramic sunroof but on the backs of  the headrest you do have eight inch  monitors with all the plug-ins which are  really nice and then look at how they  took the stitch work and did it so  exquisite all the way down to the pocket  now in this pocket you could easily put  a rattlesnake or two  my advice is make sure the rattlesnake  is sleeping before you touch the  rattlesnake  i can't vouch for what's going to happen  if your rattlesnake wakes up just  something to know about  back of this command center we do have  heated seats no ventilated seats and  that's probably going to be the other  zonk for this mid row i would like to  have some ventilated seats but we got  usbs and then watch this this is smart a  nice little cubby to where you could go.
                       Ahead and maybe put some geckos in here  and some lizards that you found and  store them in there give them a little  bit of food and then you could always  check on them hey are they still there  yes they are they're not running around  the interior way down below  we got a home power source  and if i could get it a 12 volt  don't put your lizard in there  you may not have a lizard for very long  but the amount of room like i was saying  is very very substantial you got this  captain's chair arraignment arrangement  because look at this two cupholders you  could sip on your that freshly squeezed  milk i was telling you about right out  of the utter  piping  stitching  easily put a small cowboy hat in here  but what we do have are the wireless  headsets and you know how i feel about  these  you can listen to  watch some john wayne movies maybe some  bonanza  right on your eight inch screen  i'm going to take them off because i  feel like they make me even talk even  louder but watch this you like secret  compartments  abracadabra hocus pocus yeehaw because  we're in austin  secret compartment put a bag of freaking  pig skins in here maybe some pork rinds  you could just grab them and go nice and  hidden so nobody else is getting into  your stuff  soft on the seats nice wide cushioning  and then guess what we do have a third  row it's a little tight compared to the  competition but let me show you how you  access it real simple wham bam  look at that now you can climb right in  and there are those rear seats for those  rear seat passengers the problem you're.
                          Going to have is if you're tall like me  your knees are going to be in your mouth  so you might not be able to eat that  rack of ribs because you're going to be  munching on your knees but  it is nice to have that third row but if  you're ready let's check out the cargo  area and see how much we could haul  in our qx80 all right guys time to get  in that massive cargo area we're gonna  hit the button  nice electric assist you get a little  beep and a beep beep beep to let you  know move your head out of the way so  you don't bang your coconut on the hatch  what we have are the rear seats up for  you now on the driver's side you do have  a 12 volt  and i really want to show how much space  there was so that's 17 cubic feet of  space with the seats up now when it  comes to folding the seats down what's  nice is you have the switch gear here  you can actually tilt the seat back if  you want  when you're sitting there to give that  rear passenger some extra room or it's  just one touch  and the seats will actually fold all the  way down now while those are folding  down i do want to showcase the nice  large cubby area underneath the cargo  floor my advice put the kids lego pieces  in here  if you don't you're going to be stepping  all over them and breaking your feet so  on a family road trip keep all those  lego pieces in there but now we have the  seats folded down you can see how much  room there is you could then obviously  fold down that mid-row as well we're  also going to take a second to showcase  the cup holders back here you got your  seat controls on that switch gear  nicely placed and then up top we do have  rear ac which is wonderful the bad news  and the zonk is there's no connectivity  back here  so would be nice to have a usb  or even a usbc would be better but i'm  surprised it did not give us any  connectivity so that's going to be a  zonk but you know what  we have  naturally aspirated v8 power if you're  ready  this guy's ready let's go on throttle in  our infinity qxa guys we're inside this  2022  infiniti qx80  really really nice  wide open space i feel  like the king of a castle  with the comfort of the seat  the new infotainment system the new  digital rear view mirror  i love the way you could switch it  any which way you want  which really allows for the  personalization  and the gauges  i'm gonna say it again i'm fine with the  analog  gauges with that large seven inch  digital display you get a great view  being in this full-size  suv  everything is well laid out.
              Is it perfect  no  but neither is the cadillac escalade and  for those who  aren't so  infotainment hungry for screen size this  12.3 inch is easy to get to  easy to use and like i said it's got  wireless apple carplay wireless android  auto  let me uh slow down a little bit i just  want to  show you the flexibility of this  naturally aspirated v8 in this infinity  odd throttle here we go  drops down and we are off and running  i love the smooth shifts  and i'm telling you this thing be it  builds steam  so quickly  so smoothly  and  you still got that 8500 pound towing  capacity  you'll notice how i pointed out earlier  you have that unique shape  to the infinity hoods really allows you  to  be able to keep it in the lane properly  you got good reference points and it  actually does not feel  as big  of an suv as you're driving it going  down the road steering has a nice  light  direct  connection to the front wheels  and then  when you got to go into that four high  and four low you're able to get to that  aluminum style knob very very easily  and the seven speed automatic it may  have three less gears  than what's in the escalade but  it still gets the job done  very nicely  sound deadening i could feel the  difference because i'm not hearing  what's going on outside  and that's phenomenal when you think  about those 22-inch wheels and tires  and everything else pulling away from  the light  very easily done  making basically almost a u-turn  getting on to this other road here  but just  incredible how they're able to take this  very very what could be a very rugged  off-road suv if you need it  and allow you to  drive it every day  and not feel  like you're in this big humongous thing  it feels solid  you have a great view of everything  but uh  it's actually kind of light on its feet  and i like that about this infiniti qx80  and if this refresh is this good could  you imagine what it's going to be like  when the redesign comes  that's going to be  really really exciting all right we're  going on to this side street i'm going  to uh slow down a little bit to a stop  arthral here we go drops down and we are  off the nose points for the sky and we  are off and running  holds a line very very well you're not  getting a bunch of body roll which is  great too and you're getting that  naturally aspirated v8 engine let me  come to a stop again we're gonna  jump it over these uh railroad tracks  but uh odd throttle  nice  i mean look at this i'm in  a full-size body-on-frame suv and it  really really is handling nicely it's  also  riding really smooth  and very comfortable  it's crazy how that extra stitching on  the steering wheel really makes things  feel different but  i would like some different switch gear  and i really think your mid-rope  passengers are going to be very happy  it's just that third row it's going to  be on the tighter side so you're going  to want to keep it to uh some smaller  size  kids  or people or maybe a pet the family pet  put them in the back seat  but hopefully this gave you a nice  overall feel of what the qx80 is all  about with its updates and its refresh  we're gonna get back to where this all  started and wrap this one up so i'll see  you in a split second hey guys it's been  a wonderful day here in austin texas i  definitely got to thank aileen kyle and  the rest of the infinity crew for  getting us access to this 2022 qx80 let  me know what you think has infinity done.
