If you are in need of a plush hauler, offering plenty of room for passengers and an upscale feel, the 2018 Nissan Armada Platinum is a solid contender. Awarded 8 out of 10 for comfort and quality by The Car Connection, this full-size, three-row SUV is your ticket to serious luxury.

A quick glance at the Armada Platinum and one thing is certain – it shares the same great looks and high-end appeal as its cousin, the Infiniti QX80. From the outside in, this SUV is curvaceous and bold, boasting a luxe interior with overstuffed bucket seats that deliver a throne-like experience from the first two rows. As you slip into the driver’s chair, the leather-wrapped four-spoke steering feels good in your hands, while the soft-touch materials and wood-trim accents are easy on the eyes. The leather upholstery throughout is buttery soft too.

The 2018 Armada boasts high-tech luxury with a standard 8-inch touchscreen with NissanConnect, blind-spot monitors, automatic emergency braking, and active lane control. New for 2018, the Platinum trim also includes a rearview camera that displays a live feed from the back of the vehicle, eliminating any visual obstructions caused by the rearmost roof pillars, head rests, or passengers.

The Armada is made for the most-discerning drivers who have a penchant for life’s finer details. To see if this SUV might be the vehicle for you, contact our team at Kirkland Nissan in Seattle, Washington, for a test drive.
