Receiving its first extensive makeover since its 2004 debut, the 2008 Infiniti QX56 gets new front and rear styling, redesigned instrumentation, and upgraded interior options. As Infiniti’s flagship full-size SUV, it offers a perfect amalgam of luxury and robust performance.

The standard engine is a 320-horsepower 5.6 liter V8 that offers immediate thrust and low-end pulling power. The standard 5-speed automatic transmission offers smooth shifts and is well-matched to the engine’s power band. Available All-Mode 4-wheel drive automatically switches between 2-wheel drive or 4-wheel drive, adapting to a variety of road conditions and hauling duties. The QX56 has the highest towing capacity of any SUV in its class, at 9,000 lbs. in 2-wheel drive models.

Advanced safety features include dual front airbags, seat-mounted side-impact airbags, and roof-mounted curtain side-impact airbags with rollover sensor to protect occupants in all three rows. Standard anti-lock brakes with Brake Assist apply maximum braking force to prevent wheel lockup. Standard Vehicle Dynamic Control and the Traction Control System help to keep you on track and reduce wheelspin during acceleration.

The versatile cargo area offers a maximum cargo capacity of 97.1 cubic feet with the second- and third-row seats folded flat. Technological advancements include an optional Mobile Entertainment System with an 8-inch color monitor with digital headphones to entertain rear passengers. The standard Navigation System includes XM NavTraffic®, which provides Real-Time traffic information, an elevated 3-D Birdview, and lane guidance that displays specific routes on highways. The standard RearView monitor uses a tiny camera to display an image of what’s behind the vehicle when driving in reverse. A 12-speaker Bose® premium audio system is a marvel of acoustic brilliance, with a built-in 9.3 GB Music Box hard drive that stores up to 2,900 songs.

Inviting interior appointments, sublime refinement, and commanding style make the 2008 Infiniti QX56 a pure representation of what a luxury SUV should be.
