Enhanced Performance

When it comes to upgrades over previous generations, the 2017 Nissan Armada impresses with its enhanced performance. With a 5.6-liter V8 engine, the SUV boasts a level of power similar to the high-performing Nissan Titan truck. Any way you look at it, the 2017 Armada’s 390 horsepower and 401 lb-ft of torque offer substantial improvement over the previous model year.

If you’re wondering about acceleration and towing capacity, rest assured the Armada delivers on both fronts. Its Direct Injection V8 has 32 valves and a VVEL valve control that improves both throttle response and fuel economy. The SUV’s seven-speed transmission ensures that you’re always at the head of the pack, and with a maximum towing capacity of 8,500 pounds, you can tow just about anything.

Trailblazing Technology

Whether you’re seeking safety, entertainment, or navigation features, you’ll be impressed with what you see in the 2017 Armada. All vehicles come standard with an 8-inch touchscreen navigation system. With voice recognition and real time traffic information, you’ll always get where you need to go.

The driver and passengers alike can rock out to the 13-speaker Bose premium audio system, which includes two subwoofers for a multi-textured audio experience. Use your smartphone’s Bluetooth connection to stream your favorite tunes, or crank up the SiriusXM satellite radio.

With a long list of standard safety features, you’ll feel secure in your Armada, no matter the road conditions. Blind Spot Warning and Blind Spot Intervention give you an extra set of eyes and even help you navigate around an unseen vehicle in your blind spot. Predictive Forward Collision Warning alerts you to an imminent risk of a forward collision, and Forward Emergency Braking can help you stop to lessen the impact of a collision.

Flexible Interior for a Comfortable Ride

With an interior like the Armada’s, just about anything is possible. With all the flexibility the interior design offers, you can customize the layout as necessary. When all the seats are in place, the 2017 Armada seats eight comfortably. It even offers best-in-class legroom in the second row, so there’s plenty of room for everyone.

When it’s cargo space you need, simply fold down the 60/40 split rear seats for an impressive amount of room. The rear seats even lie completely flat, so you don’t have to worry about wasting an inch.

Strong Design Features

For the 2017 model year, the Nissan Armada gets a completely new body and design. The new SUV’s body is based on the Nissan Patrol SUV, which means that the shape and size are a substantial departure from previous versions.

The new Armada’s wheelbase becomes slightly smaller, while its length increases and its height decreases. With a distinctive grille and LED headlights, the 2017 Armada looks as strong and assertive as ever.

With its brand new design, superior performance, and cutting-edge technology, you won’t want to wait another moment to get behind the wheel of this full-size SUV. Contact your local Naples Nissan dealer, and be the first in line to test drive the 2017 Nissan Armada.
