The Car Guide rating 78%(view ratings)
The Nissan Armada is a great choice for anyone wanting to carry or haul heavy loads, including trailers. With room for seven passengers, it’s an extremely robust vehicle whose towing capacity is 4,082 kg (9,000 lbs.). Over the years, improvements have been made to the 317-hp 5.6L V8’s fuel efficiency without infringing on its legendary brawn. It is almost a specialized vehicle but it is very tough and reliable.
