When it comes to buying a new vehicle, you can never have too much information. However, at times, it may be difficult to understand exactly what you’re getting when a truck has so many amazing features, many of which are high-tech. This could be the case with the 2018 Nissan Frontier SV V6, which is built to be powerful and modern.
One feature you may be familiar with are steering wheel-mounted audio controls. More and more, this amenity is creeping into vehicles, and for good reason. It’s actually a major safety feature, since it prevents drivers from having to reach over to the dashboard and change the volume or switch the radio station. If you become accustomed to the placement of the buttons, it becomes very easy to change the song without even having to look down.
These audio controls work in much the same way as any other button in your vehicle, connecting via electrical wires to the radio or CD and mp3 players. You can even control your phone calls from the steering wheel, provided you’ve hooked your device up via Bluetooth.
If this sounds like a feature you need on your next pickup, hurry in to Kirkland Nissan, conveniently located near Bothell, Washington, and request a test drive today!Â

Have you been shopping for a new Nissan? You may have a difficult time deciding which one to buy, since they are all filled to the brim with such wonderful features. It can be hard to determine the ideal combination of amenities you most want or need. However, by gaining a better appreciation for what each aspect of the vehicle does, you may find the process of choosing your car a bit easier.
In the 2018 Nissan Versa S Plus, for instance, you’ll appreciate torsion beam rear suspension with coil springs. You may not know exactly how great this could be for the longevity of your automobile. Here’s why you’ll definitely want it in your next car. Also called twist-beam suspension, the technology relies on an H-shaped piece that connects to the body of the automobile.
The rear of the H piece has a stub-axle assembly, and the cross beam of the H holds the two trailing arms together. This provides the suspension with roll stiffness, by twisting as the two trailing arms move vertically, relative to each other.
Torsion beam suspension tends to be very durable and lightweight. In addition, it fulfills the role of an anti-roll bar, which protects you in the event of a crash. Want to test drive the Versa S Plus for yourself? Hurry in toKirkland Nissan near Kent, Washington, and take it for a spin!Â

If safety is your goal, it may be time for a new vehicle. Nissan prides itself on autos that put your mind at ease and keep you from harm on the road. Why not test drive the 2018 Versa S sedan? With plenty of smart technology to protect you, it’s a great choice!
One of the many important features in the Versa S is electronic stability control. If you’re not quite sure what that means, here’s a bit of an explanation.
This amazing feature is a computerized technology that improves a vehicle's stability by detecting and reducing the loss of traction. This means you will be less likely to skid or slide if you drive over ice, rocks, or debris on the road.
This is different from ABS technology, probably familiar to drivers of older vehicles. Instead, electronic stability adds to its predecessor, using more sensors and enhanced algorithms to provide a smoother, safer experience. Traction control only limits wheel spin, whereas this program can actually maneuver your car.
The 2018 Versa S is a safe option all around. Stop by your Kirkland Nissan dealer today and set up a test drive. You’re bound to love everything about this great vehicle!Â
