INFINITI Unleashes QX80 Track Spec and Terrain Spec Concepts at Monterey Car Week

The all-new 2025 INFINITI QX80 has already set new benchmarks for luxury, performance, and capability. At The Quail, A Motorsports Gathering, INFINITI pushed its flagship SUV even further. Two provocative concept vehicles, QX80 Track Spec and QX80 Terrain Spec, demonstrate how the brand is exploring bold new expressions of power, luxury, and purpose.

“These concepts unleash the full expressive power of INFINITI design,” said David Woodhouse, vice president, Nissan Design America. “Inspired by Southern California’s diverse landscapes, they show two distinct visions of strength and elegance—both unmistakably INFINITI.”

QX80 Track Spec: The Ultimate Luxury Performance SUV

The Track Spec concept channels QX80 into a focused street machine. Unique rocker panels, front splitter, aggressive grille, 24-inch wheels, and quad exhaust outlets create a commanding presence. Beneath the surface, a twin-turbocharged 3.5L V6 produces 650+ horsepower and 750+ lb-ft of torque—the most powerful INFINITI ever. Engineering upgrades include a new turbo system, higher-capacity intercooler, fuel injectors, ram air intake, and freer-flowing exhaust, all while retaining stock internal components. Enlarged Brembo brakes ensure confident stopping to match its stunning acceleration.

QX80 Terrain Spec: Overlanding With Unmatched Refinement

The Terrain Spec concept reimagines off-road adventure with a luxurious touch. Its elevated ride height, all-terrain tires, protective underbody elements, rooftop lightbar and pop-up tent make it trail-ready, while a satin dark basalt wrap and side-exit exhaust add rugged character. Advanced features like Invisible Hood View and 3D Around View® Monitor provide crucial visibility over rough ground, demonstrating how INFINITI’s technology supports real-world exploration.

“High performance and off-road capability are emotional entry points for today’s luxury clients,” said Tiago Castro, vice president, INFINITI Americas. “These concepts reflect two unique mindsets: those who crave thrilling on-road performance and those who demand confident capability far from pavement.”

The QX80 concepts arrive as the production SUV continues to earn accolades, including IIHS TOP SAFETY PICK+, Popular Science Best of What’s New, and Best-in-Class Premium SUV honors. They also debut alongside the INFINITI QX65 Monograph, offering a glimpse at the next chapter in INFINITI’s product renaissance.
