NISSAN ARMADA GREAT PERFORMANCE FEATURES

Come to Santa Maria Nissan to look it over and speak with our salespeople. We'd love to show you everything this truck has to offer.

The Active Brake Limited Slip applies braking pressure to avoid wheel slip while the Hill Side Assist applies the correct braking power to ensure you don't roll downhill.

FRONT-WHEEL DRIVE OR REAR-WHEEL DRIVE: WHICH IS BETTER FOR YOUR CAR?

A front-wheel drive (FWD) system is engineered for normal handling on paved roads. A rear-wheel drive (RWD) is usually integrated into high-performance vehicles that are capable of navigating unpaved surfaces.

Most sedans on the global auto market come standard with a front-wheel drive system. This installation includes constant velocity (CV) joints and other components that maintain good stability. A rear-wheel drive system has a solid axle that's extremely durable and dynamic under demanding conditions. This drivetrain maximizes traction on different surfaces, such as mud, rocks, sand and grass. However, a RWD is also optimized for explosive performance on smooth asphalt and concrete. Most sports cars have this type of drivetrain that provides major leverage on the track.

Come to Santa Maria Nissan to have your vehicle's drivetrain inspected and diagnosed. Serving customers in Santa Maria, CA, we offer repairs and maintenance for cars that roll on front-wheel drive or rear-wheel drive.

DOES THE NISSAN LEAF OFFER A COMFORTABLE RIDE?

Nissan began marketing the LEAF on the American market in 2010 as its primary subcompact electric vehicle. Like many electric cars, the LEAF was met with skepticism by the majority of U.S. purchasers. However, the Nissan LEAF is quickly developing a reputation as a competent performer and comfortable ride.

One of the seldom thought of comforts of the Nissan LEAF is the lack of engine noise. Americans have come to expect the roar of the motor. Most are shocked to find that the major noise level in the vehicle is themselves. The four-door LEAF sits five occupants. The front seats have abundant legroom, head room, and shoulder and hip room. The back seat is a bit more cramped, especially in the legroom department.

At Santa Maria Nissan in Santa Maria, CA, we proudly display the Nissan LEAF. Come down and discover what quiet means with a quick test drive.
