A diverse lineup includes the hot-selling Altima, quirky Cube, and rugged Pathfinder.
Nissan Armada
Nissan's 8-passenger Armada is beginning to show some age, but it remains a good choice in the large SUV segment. New Titanium and Platinum trim levels are added for 2010. There is standard equipment aplenty, including rear parking aids and power-adjustable pedals. The V8 is powerful, though it returns dismal fuel economy. Off-road capability is also commendable, the trade-off being truckish ride quality. The exterior styling is polarizing to some, as it does stand out from the crowd.
