2026 Nissan Armada Model Review - Frisco, TX

What's New for the 2026 Nissan Armada?

The 2026 Nissan Armada lineup now includes an exciting new addition-the NISMO trim. This performance-focused model stands out with bold styling, increased power, and improved handling. With its specially tuned suspension, sharper steering response, and a sport exhaust system, the Armada NISMO delivers a more engaging driving experience both in looks and performance.

What Are the 2026 Armada Trims & Features?

Buyers can now choose from six distinct Armada trim levels, each offering a strong mix of comfort and technology. Even the base SV model is well-appointed with a 12.3-inch touchscreen, tri-zone climate control, and a fully digital gauge cluster to enhance your daily drive.

The SL trim adds refinement with leather-trimmed seats and elevated tech. It features a larger 14.3-inch infotainment display with Google built-in and a premium 12-speaker Klipsch audio system for a rich sound experience.

One step up is the Platinum trim, which prioritizes passenger comfort with ventilated front seats. It also includes high-end features like a 3D Around View Monitor and a hands-free liftgate for added convenience.

For adventure lovers, the PRO-4X trim is a rugged choice. With gear like an electronic locking rear differential and skid plates, this model is ready for weekend trails and rough terrain.

Drivers craving on-road excitement will appreciate the new NISMO variant. Beyond its aggressive styling, it offers better acceleration and tighter handling for a sportier feel.

At the top of the range, the Platinum Reserve trim takes luxury to the next level with upscale amenities such as massaging front seats, creating a truly premium ride.
