A year after launching an updated version of its flagship SUV, the QX80, Infiniti has dropped a new grade that gives the full-size luxury SUV a more dynamic appearance.
The Infiniti QX80 is gaining the Sport trim for 2026.
“A year after its dramatic introduction, the Infiniti QX80 continues to elevate the standard in luxury SUVs, thrilling Infiniti clients with bold design and technology, while propelling strong sales at Infiniti retailers,” said Tiago Castro, vice president, Infiniti Americas, in a news release. “We know that luxury drivers are looking to make a bold entrance wherever they go, so for 2026 we are dramatically amplifying QX80’s Artistry in Motion styling with a Sport grade offering a sleek, blacked-out appearance.”
