2026 Nissan Armada Trims Comparison
Which 2026 Armada trim does Edmunds recommend?
Nissan hasn't released official information on the 2026 Armada as of this writing. We'll update our recommendation if anything changes, but based on last year's Armada, the SL strikes us as the best balance of content and price. Upgrades like the premium audio system and heated front seats are the sort of thing drivers can appreciate every day, and Nissan's hands-free ProPilot Assist 2.1 is available as an option.
2026 Armada trim level differences
[Editor's note: The following unofficial information is based on last year's Armada. We expect the 2026 model will have a similar lineup and we'll update this section once we have complete information.] The Nissan Armada is a full-size SUV with seating for up to eight people. It is available in five trim levels: SV, SL, Platinum, Pro-4X and Platinum Reserve.
Every Armada has a twin-turbocharged 3.5-liter V6 engine (425 horsepower, 516 lb-ft of torque) and a nine-speed automatic transmission. Rear-wheel drive is standard, with a four-wheel-drive system available as an option (standard on the Pro-4X). Below, you'll find the equipment highlights for each trim level.
