If you’re looking for a powerful, tech-savvy SUV with edgy styling that makes a bold statement, the 2012 Nissan Armada SUV outshines most competitors in its segment and even a few luxury models costing thousands more.
The term "full-size SUV" means just that. The 2012 Nissan Armada SUV is big, heavy and not much fun to drive in confined areas. If you need 6- or 7-passenger seating but not the ability to tow heavy loads, a GMC Acadia, Dodge Durango or Honda Pilot might be a better alternative.
