Armada Named Best in Class Large SUV

Jul 24, 2017

The 2017 Nissan Armada has just been introduced, but it has already been earning applause from critics and consumers. The New England Motor Press Association just named it the Best in Class among large sport utilities. In four months, it has seen sales increase by 150 percent, demonstrating that the new Armada appeals to the American family.

The Package
Auto journalists judged the Armada as best in many ways. This included its vast cabin with seating for eight and rugged good looks. The fact that it can tow 8,500 pounds also makes it a good choice for families on the go. The three editions, SV, SL and Platinum, are packed with high value content, making each one a good choice for the money. For instance, drivers can enjoy standard Nissan Navigation. This comes with an eight-inch color display and a 13-speaker Bose audio system. Schedule a test drive at your Nissan dealer Birmingham AL.

Big Changes
The new Armada really does leap ahead of the competition. The best-in-class Endurance V8 offers stellar performance with 390 horsepower. A seven-speed automatic adds precision, helping to harness torque even at slower speeds. New safety features watch the front, sides and rear of the vehicle. Leading its class, the Nissan offers Backup Collision Intervention, including an autobrake for reverse maneuvers. An Around View Monitor adds moving object detection as well as a 360-degree view of the ute’s perimeter. Blind spot intervention helps you avoid trouble from side traffic. Nissan’s advanced collision warning can see trouble several lengths ahead and warn the driver to stop sooner, shaving offer seconds from an emergency stop.
