QX80 vs Lexus LX

The refined pleasures of a luxury vehicle are too many to count. Combining luxury with practicality takes it to the next level. That’s what you get when you drive a luxury SUV. All the careful design, comfortable ride, and powerful motor that defines a luxury vehicle. This  combines with more seating, extra headroom, and suspension that makes a rough road feel like driving on pillows. 

So many people want this luxury SUV driving experience- and who can blame them?! As a result, there are many luxury SUVs on the market that it can be difficult to choose the right one. If you’ve settled on a three row, large SUV, there are still a lot of options to choose from. Here, we’ve narrowed it down: the INFINITI QX80 and the Lexus LX. Below, we’ll compare the two luxury large SUVs. 

Interior

When you get a large SUV, the major hope is for a lot of space. That’s the case with the INFINITI QX80. With best in class trunk space, and a spacious third row, you’ll comfortably fit everything you need in the QX80. The Lexus LX is unfortunately not the same. The third row is cramped, and there’s significantly less space in the trunk as well. The LX is offered in a four seat model, suggesting that the vehicle really doesn’t have the space for three rows in the first place. 

Powertrain and Suspension

Not surprisingly as Luxury SUVs, many of the powertrain and suspensions compare very similarly. It really comes down to personal preference. The Lexus LX is equipped with a twin-turbocharged V6 that makes 409 horsepower, and the INFINITI QX80 sports a V8 making 400 horsepower. Do you want the classic, tried and true V8? Or the novel twin-turbo V6? When the horsepower is compared, both large SUVs are comparable, so it’s up to you. Both the INFINITI QX80 and the Lexus LX are equipped with air suspension making the ride smooth and comfortable. 

Price

When it comes to getting it all and not spending a small fortune, the INFINITI QX80 wins out at $70,050 compared to the Lexus LX at $86,900. Think of the equity you can buy, or the change of lifestyle you can have with that extra $16,850. For vehicles that are already so similar, these astronomical price savings really tip the scales.
