2008 Infiniti QX56 Review

With material upgrades to its interior, the 2008 Infiniti QX56 is a luxury SUV which offers more power than the Land Rovers or the Cadillac Escalade, and at a lower price. The QX56 is styled with a nice bodyline that flares out as it reaches the back quarter panel; giving this SUV its tough look and commanding presence on the road.

The Infiniti boasts a powerful 5.1 liter, 320 horsepower, V-8 engine that allows it nearly 400 ft-lb of torque with a towing capacity of up to 9000 lbs. on the 2WD, while the impressive AWD model can haul up to 8900 lbs. The transmission is a beefy 5-speed automatic that is electronically controlled to adapt to the driver's style of driving.

The QX56 comes standard with a power moonroof, complete with tinted glass, as well as a roof rack and running boards. Consumers will also be impressed with the standard heated mirrors, Sonar System in the rear, and leveling suspension. Infiniti has also equipped this vehicle with several safety features, such as ABS brakes, traction control and airbags mounted in the front, side and roof.

The interior of the Infiniti QX56 is luxuriously decked out with leather appointed, heated front and second-row seating and leather and polished aluminum trim. The ergonomically designed instrument panel is enhanced with voice recognition as well as Infiniti's touch screen enabled Hard Drive System. Infiniti's Music Box system allows storage for a maximum of 2,900 selections while the Bose 12-speaker sound system offers high quality sound which is tuned to the acoustics of the cabin.

Infiniti has gone above and beyond in the QX56 by offering standard features such as power vent windows for third-row passengers, front and rear climate controls, overhead storage, a second console for mid-cabin passengers and 12 beverage holders throughout the vehicle. The 2008 QX56 also offers the driver a heated steering wheel, illuminated keyless entry, and a Bluetooth-capable phone system.

For the starting price, of $52,450, the 2008 Infiniti QX56 does provide value that exceeds that of the Land Rover Sport for its lack of standard amenities. And, though it only offers a slightly better mpg rating of 12 city and 18 highway, it is definitely a better choice.
