When driving a full-size SUV, there’s a lot to be said for features that can help you feel safer and more secure on congested roadways. After all, these big vehicles often come with larger blind spots and can be somewhat difficult to maneuver, especially if you are used to driving a sedan or compact crossover.Â
Â
But, that’s not the case with the 2018 Nissan Armada. It stands out from other full-size SUVs in its segment with its extensive suite of available advanced safety and security systems:
Â
Intelligent Forward Collision WarningÂ
This system can warn of risks that lie beyond your forward field of vision. It uses advanced radars to sense the relative velocity and distance of a vehicle directly ahead, as well as the car traveling two lengths before you.Â
Â
Intelligent Cruise ControlÂ
This safety feature works like a standard cruise control system, but with the added benefit of maintaining a selected distance from the vehicle in front of you.
Â
RearView Monitor and Intelligent Around View MonitorÂ
This system provides an extra set of eyes when backing out of driveways or into tight spots. The innovative Intelligent Around View Monitor can also be handy when negotiating off-road trails because it provides a virtual bird’s-eye view from above the vehicle.
Â
Intelligent Lane Intervention, Lane Departure Warning & Blind Spot WarningÂ
All of these safety features will alert you of potential lane drifts and detected vehicles within the blind spot area to help avoid a collision.Â
