My wife and I are interested in getting a used Infiniti QX80, but we’re not sure which model year to look for. What’s the best year for a used Infiniti QX80?

If you want a big, luxury SUV at a lower price, then a used
Infiniti QX80
is certainly a good option, but reviews over the years have been mediocre. According to J.D. Power, the highest-rated year for the QX80 would be the 2015 model, thanks to its powerful V8 engine, tight handling, and comfortable ride.
If you’re looking for something a little older, you can expand your search by shopping for the
Infiniti QX56
. It’s the exact same model as the QX80. The brand just changed the model’s name in 2013.
On the other hand, some critics, like
Car and Driver
, are lukewarm toward the behemoth. As you research the QX80 and QX56, you’ll find that many expert reviewers suggest turning your attention to the
Nissan Armada
. It’s what the Infiniti QX80 is based on, it’s nearly as luxurious, and it’s not as expensive.
