Nissan Armada

Read on for a look at five things we like about the latest Nissan Armada and two things we don’t after time behind the wheel.

Shopping for a three-row SUV means balancing priorities of seat quantity versus comfort. If the number of seats trump all, many three-row SUVs offer a second-row bench, but other models give up the second-row middle seat for captain’s chairs.

Need to tow tons but don’t want a pickup truck? There are plenty of SUVs that can tow as much as a truck and haul up to eight family members and their toys in comfort.

For our Best Car of the Year award, our watchwords are quality, innovation and value.

The best SUV offers practical utility and the comfort of a raised seating position.

Take a look at how the Latch system and each car seat scored in our Car Seat Check of the 2026 Nissan Armada.

An issue with the rearview camera has prompted Nissan to recall more than 60,000 SUVs, including the Armada, Murano and Infiniti QX80.

In an era where automakers take themselves entirely too seriously, the 2026 Nissan Armada NISMO’s mere existence is a net positive.

There’s a new NISMO trim level and the Pro-4X can now be had with second-row captain’s chairs, but the rest of the 2026 Armada lineup is mostly unchanged from 2025.

There are lots of choices among the cheaper-to-buy-and-drive mid-size SUVs that, when properly configured, can safely tow at least 5,000 pounds.
