A talented group of team members are working around the clock to bring the all-new 2025 INFINITI QX80 to life in Japan.
INFINITI’s latest flagship is proudly assembled by a team of over 3,000 within a facility in the subtropical southwestern island of Kyushu (south of Japan’s main Honshu Island). The plant has produced INFINITI’s full-size SUV since 2010 (when it was initially badged INFINITI QX56).
The all-new 2025 INFINITI QX80 brings a dominant, sophisticated design; first-class hospitality for all three rows of seating; seamless and intuitive technology; and a commanding, rewarding driving experience.
It arrives at retailers across the U.S. and Canada from this month with other regions to follow later this year.
Akira Kiyota, the general foreman of the plant has been working to assemble products in Kyushu for over 35 years. He can trace his passion for production back to his childhood, where he enjoyed building plastic model cars.
A core member of INFINITI QX80 project team since the early prototype phase, Kiyota recalls his feeling on the day the first all-new QX80 made its way along the production line saying, “It’s a moment of immense pride to see this new QX80 rolling out of the plant, having worked on this nameplate for close to 15 years”.
“When the engine on the first car started and it drove off the line, it was a very rewarding moment, knowing so many teams have worked tirelessly to bring this new INFINITI flagship to life.”
