2020 Nissan Armada vs. Its Competition

2020 Nissan Armada
Andrew Ganz Andrew Ganz Senior Editor

Among full-size SUVs, the Ford Expedition offers the best balance between features and driving refinement, though it’s awfully expensive.

The General Motors twins—Chevy Tahoe and GMC Yukon—are nearly the same truck in most configurations.

They’re good choices just beginning to show their age, though active safety tech is an expensive option.

Toyota’s Sequoia boasts a sterling reputation for durability and a serious off-road trim level, but its design is so dated that it’s hard to recommend.

And unless you tow, wouldn’t the Chrysler Pacifica handle your family just fine?

Quick Specs
5.6
The 2020 Nissan Armada is an old-school SUV with more charms than its brutish proportions might suggest.
6.2
In its last year before a redesign, the 2020 Chevrolet Tahoe offers old-school SUV chops with a heaping helping of additional options and features.
7.2
The 2020 Chrysler Pacifica is everything you could want in a large family vehicle, crossovers be damned.
7.0
The 2020 Ford Expedition sets a benchmark for full-size SUVs, with rugged ability and sophisticated sensibilities.
6.0
The 2020 GMC Yukon is a business-casual blue-collar SUV with truck-like capability, but many crossovers do it better, and cheaper.
4.2
A new TRD Pro package this year adds some excitement to the 2020 Toyota Sequoia but doesn’t disguise this design’s age.
