2022 Nissan Altima vs. 2021 Nissan Altima

When it comes to choosing the right SUV for your family, Nissan and Ford both offer competitive models. While the 2022 Nissan Armada has a lot to offer in the way of performance and technology, it is impossible not to discount the 2022 Ford Expedition. In terms of price, performance, cargo space, technology, and other features, there is a lot to love about both models. VIEW NEW ARMADAS CONTACT US PRE-OWNED SUVS As you shop for the newest SUV to meet your transportation needs, you've got a lot to consider. Here's what you can expect from the new Armada and Expedition. Price First, let's take a look at the starting price of each vehicle. The 2022 Nissan Armada has an MSRP of $48,900 for the base model. The SV trim begins at $52,900, and a premium SL model is available starting at $56,710. The most expensive model begins at $65,300. This price is comparable to similar vehicles. The cheapest 2022 Ford Expedition starts at $51,080. If you choose to add the option for a 4-wheel drive, you can expect to spend a little more. If you choose the Platinum trim, you can expect to spend over $76,000. While this might seem steep, the price of the base model is on par with other options. Performance Image via Nissan The Ford Expedition offers a twin-turbocharged 3.5 turbo V6 engine and 10-speed automatic transmission, and it is a faster vehicle than the Armada. Additionally, the Expedition gets better gas mileage. In part, this is because the engine turns off to save fuel when it is stopped. You have the power to turn off this feature and keep the engine running at all times if this is your preference. While these are great advantages, the engine gets just 380 horsepower, which is lower than the Nissan. Still, you'll have access to standard rear-wheel drive as well as an option for all-wheel drive. In comparison, the Nissan Armada offers a 5.6-liter Endurance V8 engine and 7-speed automatic transmission. You'll get 400 horsepower out of the standard engine as well as rear-wheel drive and four-wheel drive. The engine does not turn off when the vehicle is stopped like the Expedition, so you will likely use more fuel behind the wheel of this SUV. While this SUV might seem unassuming, a lot of power hides under the hood. Towing Capacity If you are trying to figure out which of these options is ideal for towing, you should consider that the Nissan Armada can tow 8,500 pounds at most. While the base model does not offer a way to ease trailer sway, the Armada SL and Premium trims do offer a way to ease the dangerous movements of anything you are towing. The Armada's 7-speed transmission helps you tow with more power, and it also offers a Tow/Haul transmission mode for increased performance. At this time, no towing package seems to be available for this vehicle. On the other hand, the Ford Expedition has a towing capacity of 9,300 pounds, so it's a bit beefier in terms of towing capabilities. Additional equipment makes towing with the Expedition even easier. When it is used to tow, the 2022 Ford Expedition takes advantage of AdvanceTrac sensors, which help brake to counteract trailer sway. Kelly Blue Book speaks highly of the Expedition's towing power. Cargo & Seating The 2022 Expedition offers 171.9 cubic feet of space in the cabin. You'll find that the Expedition offers over an inch of extra headroom and two more inches of legroom in the front of the vehicle. In the second and third rows, you will still find plenty of legroom and hip room for each seat. Plus, the Expedition allows you to automatically lower your second and third rows of seats with the press of a button. The Expedition also offers a hands-free opening of the hatch for easier loading. The 2022 Armada offers slightly less cabin space with 154.5 cubic feet. Ultimately, you end up with slightly less space behind your third seat than with similar SUVs. While the Armada's cabin is a bit smaller in most ways, this is not necessarily a bad thing. Many drivers prefer a smaller SUV with the power and capabilities of a larger vehicle. Technology Which vehicle comes off as more technologically advanced? The Nissan Armada is loaded with cruise control, a hands-free phone system, a navigation system, and even Internet access. The vehicle offers a push-button engine start with Bluetooth wireless technology and keyless entry. This vehicle offers all the tech features you would expect from a 2022 model. You will also find some of the technological features of the Ford Expedition appealing. The 2022 Expedition is equipped with a Sync 4 option and a 15.5-inch touchscreen. The tech also allows different drivers to create different profiles. Additional technology includes a navigation system, cruise control system, push-button engine start, USB port, and real-time traffic information. Safety Both the Expedition and the Armada offer great safety features. For instance, the Ford Expedition offers seatbelts that inflate upon collision, which helps prevent seatbelt injuries and whiplash. Co-Pilot360 offers auto emergency braking, blind-spot monitoring, rear parking sensors, road sign recognition, intersection assistance, and lane centering. While the Armada does not offer the same seatbelt security, you can still count on standard frontal airbags, front side-impact airbags, side-impact head airbags, and excellent traction control. The vehicle's electronic stability system also prevents skidding. Your new Armada will also offer a lane departure warning as well as rearview cameras, driver alerts, and a blind-spot warning system. Warranty With the 2022 Nissan Armada, the warranty lasts three years or 36,000 miles. The 2022 Ford Expedition offers the same warranty, so there is not much of a difference here. While this is not the longest warranty on the market, it is not abnormal for similar SUVs.

If you're looking for a stylish and capable SUV, the Nissan lineup includes several appealing options. Depending on your needs, you may be interested in the Nissan Kicks or Rogue. Both offer an impressive list of standard and available features, along with efficient and capable engines beneath their respective hoods. Check out the differences between these two top-selling SUVs as you decide which one is the right option for your lifestyle. Exterior Styling Image via Unsplash by john_cameron From the outside, both the Nissan Kicks and the Nissan Rogue showcase impressive styling elements. One of the key differences between the two models is the size, as the Kicks fits into the subcompact crossover segment, while the Rogue is a compact crossover SUV. Standard exterior features on the smaller Kicks S Trim include 16-inch steel wheels, automatic halogen headlights, and a chrome front grille. On the higher trims, you can get options like a rear roof spoiler, upgraded side mirrors with integrated LED turn signals, a dark chrome grille, LED fog lights, larger 17-inch alloy wheels, and upgraded LED headlights. You'll also notice that the Kicks is available with a two-tone paint job, which helps it stand out on the road. With the base S trim of the Rogue, you get intelligent automatic highlights, LED headlights with Daytime Running Lights, 17-inch alloy wheels, and LED taillights as standard. More standard features include a rear spoiler and UV-reducing solar glass. The Rogue comes in three additional trim levels, each of which has unique upgrades. The SV trim adds heated side mirrors with integrated LED turn signal indicators. The SL trim tacks on roof rails, 19-inch wheels, a motion-activated liftgate, and a dual-panel panoramic moonroof as standard features. Power Beneath the Hood The Kicks gets its power from a 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine rated at 122 horsepower and 114 pound-feet of torque. It pairs with a continuously variable transmission that powers the front wheels on all trims. EPA fuel economy estimates are 31 mpg in the city and 36 mpg on the highway, or 33 mpg combined with front-wheel drive. The Rogue includes a 2.5-liter 16-valve four-cylinder engine that produces 181 horsepower and 181 pound-feet of torque. It pairs with a continuously variable transmission that sends power to the front wheels. According to the EPA, the fuel economy estimates for this small SUV come in at 27 mpg in the city and 35 mpg on the highway. These numbers translate to 30 mpg combined, making this one of the more efficient SUVs in the segment. All-wheel-drive drops each estimate by one mpg. Interior Sizing Both models boast well-equipped cabins with seating for five and appealing tech and comfort features. The Kicks offers 40.4 inches of headroom and 43.7 inches of legroom for those in the front, plus 38.5 inches of headroom and 33.5 inches of legroom in the rear. By contrast, the Rogue provides 41.1 inches of headroom and 43.3 inches of legroom in the front row, with 39.2 inches of headroom and 38.5 inches of legroom in the second row. If you frequently transport passengers in your second row, it may be worth opting for the larger Rogue. The Rogue's cargo area offers 36.5 cubic feet of space with the second row up, while the Kicks' cargo area comes in at 25.3 cubic feet behind its second row. Folding down the second row increases the Rogue's cargo space to 74.1 cubic feet and the cargo area in the Kicks to 32.3 cubic feet. Cabin and Tech Features Climb into the base S trim model of the Kicks to find standard comfort features like cloth upholstery, manual climate control, and manually adjustable front seats.

The mid-level SV trim includes upgraded features like automatic climate control, keyless entry, remote ignition, and a central armrest console that sits between the two front seats. This trim level also adds satellite radio and a larger 8-inch touch screen. At the top of the list, the Kicks SR trim includes a leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob, plus sporty front seats. You can add a package that bundles a cargo cover, a heated steering wheel, a premium sound system, simulated leather upholstery, and heated front seats. The Rogue S trim gives you interior features like a four-speaker sound system, an 8-inch touch screen, a USB port, a USB-C port, satellite radio, and smartphone integration.
