Khreish reveals that his decision to drive the QX80 comes from personal experience and a deep connection to what the brand stands for in the region. With its commanding presence and smooth V8 performance, the QX80 offers both confidence and comfort, qualities he values as a top executive in the luxury segment.

Its exterior styling draws attention with sharp body lines, a wide signature grille, and modern lighting design, while the interior reflects Japanese craftsmanship blended with premium technology. Every detail, from the materials to the digital interface, is designed to make the driver feel elevated.

For Khreish, the QX80 is not just a vehicle, but a reflection of character. It fits perfectly into the executive lifestyle in the UAE and the Gulf, delivering both authority and ease in equal measure.

The episode also highlights how Infiniti packs the QX80 with intelligent comfort systems. Triple-zone climate control, ventilated and massaging seats, and a premium Bose surround sound system create a sensory-rich cabin that feels more like a private lounge than an SUV.

The QX80 also impresses with its suite of advanced driver-assistance systems, including blind spot monitoring, lane keep assist, and automatic emergency braking. These features show how Infiniti balances cutting-edge safety with everyday usability, making the QX80 a tech-forward yet human-centered vehicle.

He also emphasizes that Infiniti engineers its models with the local climate and road conditions in mind. From cooling systems built for desert heat to suspension tuned for city and off-road use, the QX80 is crafted to meet the expectations of drivers across the UAE and the broader region.
