I personally like more subtle ambient lighting. The German cars overdo it in my eyes. I do agree the lighting on the center console should be much better. But we know Nissan/Infiniti is still in an uphill battle financially and they had to cut costs somewhere while still delivering good feature content. They could have cut costs in worse ways. In a pinch you'd just have to turn on the overhead lights. Headlights look fine to me, but I do drive a 2013 so LEDs looks super bright to me no matter what. I do notice it's missing the adaptive headlights that the QX60 has... but I feel like those don't have much benefit.

[@faheemabbas3965]

Nissan is so broke from low sales that I’m surprised they made the QX80 as nice as it is. They’re trying so hard to fix their reputation but they have so much against them. I’m not surprised that they’re asking for a pretty penny for the new QX80, they’re trying to get their money back

[@nel1962]

[@gamezkiller20t59]

Love the at night vids mike, one of the few car reviewers that really go in detail while reviewing a car and we appreciate that!! keep up the amazing work mike! ❤

[@REPUBLI_CAN]

I seriously would consider purchasing this $112,590.00 beauty right here!🤔 👉EXCELLENT JOB AS ALWAYS MIKE👈

[@leol9281]

Great night vid, very thorough. Hitting those areas no one would know until after the purchase. Thanks.

[@LEXPIX]

Your night videos set you apart from most other reviewers. Keep up the good work. I too am surprised at the lack of brightness levels in the interiors lighting as well as the lackluster quality of the headlights for a $100K+ vehicle. I think they think most well healed soccer moms probably wouldn't notice.

[@boozer74]

Hi Mike. Love you videos, you are so more in depth with your reviews!!!

[@gregnorthway3814]

2026 should address the low beams imo.

[@tmyere.]

I want one!

[@donaldpmurt2446]

As always - you give a great review! I agree - ergonomics are extremely important.

[@bdoleza]

HELLYEAH!! Way ta go!! You rock!!

[@FRoZeN_ACiD]

Another great video, thank you so much for the night time review!

[@jr1885]

Very nice update from your last QX80. The only thing that Infiniti took away is the puddle lights. 😢 Still wish that more manufacturers would look at what Hyundai/Genesis is doing. They are the best with interior lighting on their higher end models.

[@FRoZeN_ACiD]

Because of the great video Mike, I noticed: -little ambient lighting at the center console area and cup holders (either from the overhead down or within the compartments - no adaptive headlight system or even swerving with the wheel - no cornering lights as with cars in the same class - no fog lights. - no puddle lights under the doors. - no lights in the rear floorboard! Looks dark. Or center box. Glove box has a traditional yellow light? - no sequential turn signals (not sure if it's still a regulation issue) Surprisingly, some were offered in the previous model. Thanks for the amazing review

[@user-xv2dj1fr5o]

This is the first time I see your review, and you are doing a very wonderful job and I hope that the problems you mentioned will be fixed By the way, your keen observations help people save their money. Keep it up👍🏻

[@faheemabbas3965]

I know you Arabs love these Patrol-based cars.

[@dineshkhashia]

Such a high end car in now a days generation without soft close doors, reallly!!!

[@marcoszou8863]

Hi mate, what is the dash cam you use to record?

[@mavi1819]

Will done 😊

[@hairplay6502]

23:58 Can't tell, but do the low beams move left to right with the steering? My 2016 has the adaptive headlights and it's very cool to see them moving back and forth as I drive.

[@MikesCarInfo]

No, these are static headlights.

[@KF...]

I'm actually not offended by the price..... There is no luxury full size suv on the market under 100k...... Even the non luxury brands come very close to 100k (expeditions, sequoias, Tahoes) ... (Top of the line) It's a good looking truck with lots of features, lots of safety and that Japanese engine might last you forever.......

[@i.3]

You are the best

[@rromancunard]

I hope a comfort view in this screen at night.

[@passionnotparked9099]

Much needed improvement to the QX80, but I will miss the puddle lights, the swivel headlights, and the Footwell lights.

[@beastbee0118]

The official car of pastor wives everywhere

[@BrokenAdam2024]

Where are the LED rear fog lights?

[@SAOKAROLINA]

10x better than Lexus. 🔥

[@sharpshooter012345]

Vehicle industry should hire mike as their interior/exterior light advisor.

[@zandrew]

Subscribed immediately after hearing an actual real opinion. Other channels just gush like sheep.

[@MikesCarInfo]

A lot of popular reviewers are given all-expense-paid trips around the world by the manufacturers to go to their press events. They sleep in $1000 a night hotels and get buttered up the whole time. After receiving $5,000 - $10,000+ worth of benefits, It is unlikely this has no effect of the "review" videos they make :)

[@Chris_really_]

🤤🤤🤤🤤

[@cdchannel]

I really enjoyed your reviews, goes into more in depth compared to other reviewers. Maybe you can show how the lights look on the rear and side mirrors from a vehicle in front of it in the future.

[@Shane23Armada]

Let's hope no problems like the new toyotas .

[@luisperalta3228]

That is why is auto light so you don’t have to do anything

[@XLRmusik]

These type of vehicles would do great in the 70-75k range but for some reason they want to compete with vehicles that they can’t match. BMW, MB or Range Rover. They are not even close. Ambient lighting should be adjustable. Some of us light them bright. With all these cons is def not worth the price

[@dynamicremakes5592]

Not jus Infiniti tho the Escalade and the Navi also can’t compete with the Europeans

[@abdullah_q8171]

Expensive machine

[@tae912]

Rear and headlight looks ugly AF.

[@romegilliam9146]

Man, I think you are looking...

[@user-oz2hi2lf8c]

Again Infiniti make the same mistake foot & headlights before 5 years with all new 2018 i bought Qx80 then changed to 2019 Armada hope not to repeat with all new Armada

[@hadespaganism2405]

I think I am more impressed with the 2024 hyundai santa fe hybrid calligraphy which is half the price of the infinite QX80 and has better lights than a vehicle that costs twice as much and the hyundai hybrid gets far better fuel mileage than this QX80 and for bang for buck I would buy the hyundai santa fe hybrid calligraphy and doesn't need premium fuel either. Thanks again, Mike, for another good nighttime review.

[@kobbycrentsil2859]

Comparing a Santa Fe to this? You're in the wrong category mate. And the Santa Fe isn't all that great with transmission problems and all.

[@parhampwrc]

Not good as Lexus LX

[@alexanderbz3162]

Go for BMW nothing is better that X7 40 d

Have you seen my I5 M60 night video?

[@deerock8870]

Your nick picking critiquing to make you sound like a professional , the car is adequate and the lighting is .

[@MikesCarInfo]

My detailed review aims to provide thorough information for potential buyers, especially given the QX80's luxury status and price point. While the vehicle is indeed impressive overall, I believe discussing both strengths and potential improvements helps viewers make informed decisions based on their specific needs. Different drivers have different priorities, which is why I try to cover all aspects in depth.

[@kobbycrentsil2859]

If you're buying a $100k+ vehicle you expect nothing but absolute quality, he has to point out every detail why you would bypass an Escalade, LX and every vehicle in its class to get this
