That, Armada fans, is a 12.3-inch touchscreen display, the largest screen in the full-size SUV class. It's linked to wireless Apple CarPlay and wireless WiFi hotspotting. Oh, and there's wireless phone charging, multi-touch control for the big screen.
Technology is at the forefront of the Nissan Armada, although much of its tucked away where you can't see it, calibrating the All-Mode four-wheel-drive system or synchronizing the 7-speed automatic's rev controll or powering down the third-row seat.
For 2021, Nissan is updating the Armada's exterior design while also modernizing the interior layout and upgrading the powertrain.
Start with that engine. It's a 5.6-liter Endurance V8 that now cranks out 400 horsepower. The Armada is rated to tow up to 8,500 pounds – the 2021 model includes a trailer brake controller as standard equipment. Inside, the centre stack is at the same time more feature-laden and simplified. Outside, the 2021 Armada's design includes new front and rear bumpers, new LED headlights and taillghts, a new hood and grille, and new front fenders. You'll know it's the new model as soon as you see it.
The Armada will be the first Nissan to wear the new Nissan badge. There's also new Armada font emblazoned onto the tailgate. 2021 Armada availability begins in January.
