2025 Nissan Armada
Episode 476
Wednesday, 9 July, 2025
The 2025 Nissan Armada gets a major redesign. Our experts share their first impressions of the Nissan Armada SL with Intelligent AWD in this episode. We put the new Armada through its paces on our test track and take a close look at its refined exterior, premium interior, updated powertrain, and family-friendly space. Plus, we compare it to top rivals like the Chevrolet Tahoe, Ford Expedition, Jeep Wagoneer, Toyota Sequoia, and its luxury cousin, the Infiniti QX80. We also answer viewer questions and opine on the irritating turn signal in the 2025 Jeep Compass, should you worry about the Mazda CX-90’s multiple drive chains and potential repair bills, and what’s a fun, budget-friendly manual car under $35K that won’t cramp a tall driver?
