LaFontaine INFINITI Ann Arbor – Why Livonia, MI Drivers Love the 2026 INFINITI QX80’s Google built-in and Klipsch Audio

When a luxury SUV gets the fundamentals right—comfort, quiet, and effortless power—what elevates the experience from excellent to unforgettable are the technologies that work seamlessly in the background. The 2026 INFINITI QX80 pairs an elegant, intuitive infotainment system powered by Google built-in with a segment-first Klipsch® audio partnership, creating a daily drive that feels polished and personal. For Livonia, MI families and professionals, this blend of smart connectivity and immersive sound makes every mile feel easier, more enjoyable, and distinctly premium.

At the heart of the cabin are dual 14.3-inch Monolith displays that function as your command center. With Google built-in, you can say where you want to go, ask for a weather update, queue your favorite podcasts, or manage your calendar—without pulling out your phone or hunting through menus. INFINITI InTouch® Services and available in-vehicle 5G Wi-Fi help keep the system responsive and current, while wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ offer familiar smartphone integration. The result is a cohesive, polished interface that adapts to your preferences the more you use it. Add the Klipsch® Reference Premiere system—available with up to 24 speakers and Individual Audio—and your QX80 becomes a private listening lounge, offering crisp highs, rich midrange, and bass that’s full without intruding on conversation.

  • Google built-in benefits: Natural voice control, integrated navigation with high-definition mapping, and Google Assistant to streamline daily tasks
  • Dual 14.3-inch Monolith displays: High-resolution graphics and responsive touch controls designed to reduce distraction
  • Wireless connections: Apple CarPlay®, Android Auto™, and Bluetooth® support for effortless pairing
  • Klipsch® sound: Up to 24 speakers with Individual Audio so each row can enjoy personalized listening
  • Quiet foundation: Acoustic glass and meticulous insulation that let premium audio shine

The audio experience is more than wattage or speaker count; it’s how gracefully the system integrates with the QX80’s serene cabin. Acoustic glass and a carefully insulated body let the Klipsch® system reveal subtleties you might miss elsewhere. From an intimate vocal timbre to the decay of a cymbal in a live recording, the presentation feels authentic, layered, and surprisingly lifelike for a full-size SUV. Meanwhile, the cabin’s available 64-color personalized interior lighting gives you the freedom to match the ambience to your playlist—calm and cool for evening drives, warm and inviting for school runs and Sunday brunch.

On busy weekdays, the practical advantages of Google built-in stand out. Ask for the quickest route that avoids construction, add a detour for coffee by voice, or pull up a near-180-degree Front Wide View when navigating a tight parking garage. If you prefer to leave your phone in a pocket or bag, having the services you rely on built directly into the QX80 keeps your attention on the road and simplifies the small decisions that add up over the day. And when a longer trip calls, available ProPILOT Assist 2.1 can help reduce driving effort on compatible highways, while your passengers enjoy Individual Audio with the Klipsch® system—a win for everyone aboard.
