INTELLIGENT DRIVER ALERTNESS
Safety is a top priority for drivers, especially when you have a large SUV. This means you have more to take with you, whether it’s extra cargo or the entire soccer team.
You want to make sure that everything arrives at your final destination safely. That means being prepared for anything that comes your way on the road.
The Nissan Armada comes loaded with safety technology as part of the standard Safety Shield® 360. It includes safety systems like:
- Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection
- Rear Automatic Braking
- Blind Spot Warning
- Rear Cross Traffic Alert
- Lane Departure Warning
- High Beam Assist
The INFINITI QX80 offers many similar features, but it doesn’t have Intelligent Driver Alertness. This Nissan feature monitors your steering patterns. If the system detects drowsy or distracted driving, it will alert you with a chime, so you can refocus or take a break.
As large SUVs, both the Nissan Armada and the INFINITI QX80 offer many similar qualities and dimensions.
Both vehicles can carry up to eight passengers and have spacious interior designs. In the front seats of the Armada, however, you’ll enjoy slightly more space.
The Nissan Armada provides 40.9 inches of headroom and 41.9 inches of legroom to front passengers. The INFINITI QX80, on the other hand, provides 39.9 inches of headroom and 39.6 inches of legroom to front occupants.
This allows you more space to stretch out and feel relaxed when at the helm of the Nissan Armada.
The engine serves as the heartbeat of the vehicle you choose. The Nissan Armada and the INFINITI QX80 provide the same engine quality.
Both SUVs come with a 5.6L V8 engine that gets 400 horsepower and 413 lb-ft of torque. This engine is paired with a 7-speed automatic transmission and has the ability to tow up to 8,500 pounds when properly equipped.1
No matter which vehicle you choose, you will have the confidence that your vehicle can handle the task at hand and get you where you need to go with a reliable performance.
Now that you know more about these vehicles, it’s time to make your choice. Here at Watermark Nissan of Marion, you can see the 2022 Nissan Armada up close and take it for a test drive.
