INFINITI QX80 received the 2021 Kelley Blue Book 5-Year Cost to Own Award in the luxury SUV segment. In fact, this is the fifth time in a row that QX80 wins this award. The event itself honors new vehicles with the lowest projected ownership costs.
We are thrilled to have the QX80 honored with a Kelley Blue Book 5-Year Cost to Own Award, said Jeff Pope, Group Vice President of INFINITI Americas. For model-year 2021, the QX80 has been enhanced with new equipment, innovative technologies, and stylish features befitting its luxury status. It’s fantastic to have this vehicle recognized by such a credible third party five years running.
The research for the best vehicle was conducted by Kelley Blue Book’s own data for new cars for the initial five-year ownership period. Depreciation and fuel costs are the two greatest expenses for the owners, but there are also other factors that impact the costs of owning a car.
The 5-Year Cost to Own information is also based on finance and insurance fees, maintenance and repair costs, and state fees for all new models. The information and award exist to help shoppers make more informed decisions when buying a vehicle and break down the ownership cost details.
INFINITI’s QX80 is the winner of Kelley Blue Book’s 5-Year Cost to Own Award based on depreciation costs that are estimated to be thousands of dollars less than other domestic and European SUVs In the Luxury Full-Size SUV/Crossover category, said Eric Ibara, director of residual values for Kelley Blue Book. Additionally, lower repair costs contributed to its overall strength.

The award itself recognizes machines that exceed owner’s expectations, based on responses from more than 50,000 owners of new vehicles across major manufacturers.
Infiniti has revealed a revised version of the new QX80 not so long ago and the result is simply stunning: the vehicle adopts everything that is necessary to make a SUV leap into the premium segment. However, LARTE Design team decided to take a closer look at the luxury car and make some changes and additions on its own. The result is amazing and fills a gap that was noticed by many people: although sexy and agile, QX80 lacks some aggressive and sporty expression. And here’s where LARTE Design shines.
INFINITI QX80 is named 2018 Best in Class in Full-Size SUV category by the prestigious New England Motor Press Association (NEMPA). The vehicle was chosen for its premium interior features, comfortable atmosphere and of course, the new 5.6-liter V8 power unit that offers power and refined driving experience.

If you have an Infiniti QX80 and you think you need an individual touch, the Missuro tuning pack by Larte Design is probably the best choice to make. After applying it, the results are unexpectedly good and in fact the car looks amazing and very stylish.

So if you are in the vicinity you can see it this weekend at the event.
