Few of us really recall it, but there was a time when cruise control was seen as one of the pinnacles of technological prowess in an automobile. Fixing a set speed for highway travel was a big deal then—not so much now. So how does Nissan keep pace with their new machines like the 2018 Armada SL? Simple: with features like Intelligent Backup Intervention.

Intelligent Backup Intervention works in concert with the rearview camera to keep you safe. It kicks in whenever you put the car in reverse, using a variety of sensors to detect stationary objects behind your ride as well as crossing vehicles. A video feed is shown on the center console touchscreen so you can keep track of everything going on outside; further, if you do start to pull out into traffic, the technology can actually autonomously engage the brakes to help you avoid a collision.



Notably, Intelligent Backup Intervention isn’t the only thing the 2018 Armada SL has going for it. It’s wickedly powerful and comes packed with a 5.6L V8 that produces 390 horsepower and 394 lb.-ft. of torque.
