The pride of Nissan's fleet, the 2012 Nissan Armada is a mighty full-size SUV that offers stunning performance and road-ready versatility. Equipped with a 5.6 liter V8 that puts out a whopping 317 horsepower, the Armada is truly at the top of its class. For the ultimate reliability, all its mechanical components offer superior strength and trouble free operation, including a heavy-duty battery and radiator and aluminum alloy cylinder block and cylinder heads. Boasting IBAS II body-on-frame construction, the Armada also comes with a body undercoating to help minimize damage from debris and dirt from the road.
The Armada is equipped for all your transportation needs with a Yakima-compatible roof rack. It's also pre-wired for towing. The Armada fits in perfectly on modern roads with its standard body-color exterior trim and chrome bumpers, and also has a 1-pierce rear liftgate with an opening window.
Comfortably seating eight, the Armada's roomy interior is packed with modern conveniences. For your comfort, it includes an air conditioning system with dual-zone climate controls, so that different areas of the cabin can enjoy the perfect temperature settings. Go ahead and stow all your belongings in a full-size lockable storage bin, located in the front seat center console. An 8-way adjustable power driver seat makes it easy for you to find that perfect driving position. Additional features include power windows and locks, rear reading and map lights, and a convenient remote keyless entry system.
