2027 Nissan Armada For Sale

A 425-horsepower twin-turbo V6, up to 8,500 pounds of towing and seating for eight. New for 2027: a Dark Armor package that blacks out the whole truck.
Dark Armor Blacks Out the Big One
The 2027 Armada adds a Dark Armor package, which is the most visible change to Nissan's full-size SUV this year. It brings a panoramic moonroof, black 20-inch wheels, black leatherette seats, black emblems and badges, a darkened grille and fascia and dark interior accents.
The grade structure runs SL, Platinum, PRO-4X, NISMO and Platinum Reserve. The 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6 makes 425 horsepower and 516 lb-ft in the standard grades, and the NISMO steps up to 460 horsepower on premium fuel. All of it goes through a 9-speed automatic with paddle shifters.
This is the Nissan you buy when the Rogue and the Pathfinder are not enough truck. It tows up to 8,500 pounds properly equipped and seats seven as standard or eight as an option. Take a look at the Armada inventory.
Three Rows and a Lot of Screen
Wheels, badging and interior materials change substantially across the five grades.
Photos show the current-generation Armada, which carries into 2027 with the Dark Armor package added.
Six Reasons to Look at the Full-Size
The Armada is body-on-frame, twin-turbocharged and rated to tow 8,500 pounds. It is a specific tool for a specific job.
425 HP and 516 lb-ft
The 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6 makes 425 horsepower and 516 lb-ft in SL, Platinum, PRO-4X and Platinum Reserve. That torque figure is what pulls a loaded trailer up the grade toward Snoqualmie without drama.
Up to 8,500 Pounds of Towing
Properly equipped, the Armada tows up to 8,500 pounds. That is a large travel trailer, a full-size boat for Puget Sound, or a car hauler, which is beyond what any Nissan crossover will do.
Seven Seats Standard, Eight Available
Seven-passenger seating is standard and eight is available. For households in Graham, Orting or Bonney Lake regularly moving a full crew, that is the reason to be on this page.
97.1 Cubic Feet of Cargo
20.4 cubic feet behind the third row, and 97.1 cubic feet with the second and third rows folded. That is a moving-day number, not a grocery-run number.
Dark Armor Package, New for 2027
A panoramic moonroof, black 20-inch wheels, black leatherette seats, black emblems and badges, a darkened grille and fascia and dark interior accents. It changes the whole character of the truck.
NISMO Exists
The Armada NISMO runs 460 horsepower on premium fuel. It is a strange and appealing thing, a full-size body-on-frame SUV with a performance division's name on it.
A 14.3-Inch Display and Paddle Shifters
SL grades get a 12.3-inch display, and Platinum and above move to a 14.3-inch screen. The 9-speed automatic comes with paddle shifters across the range, which is more useful than it sounds when you are engine-braking a loaded trailer down from Chinook Pass.
Standard driver assistance includes Intelligent Forward Collision Warning and Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection. On a vehicle this size and weight, forward collision warning is not a luxury item, and neither are the camera systems that make parking it in a Tacoma garage possible.
Five Grades
SL is the entry point and the only one available in rear-wheel drive. PRO-4X is the off-road grade, NISMO is the performance one, and Platinum Reserve is the top.

When the Pathfinder Is Not Enough
Most three-row shoppers in Pierce County are well served by a Pathfinder. The Armada is for the ones who are not. The dividing line is usually towing. If your trailer is over about five thousand pounds, the conversation moves to this page.
The second dividing line is people plus cargo at the same time. 20.4 cubic feet behind a third row that is actually in use is a lot for the segment, and 97.1 cubic feet with both rows down turns the Armada into a moving van for a weekend.
It is a big vehicle for a downtown Puyallup side street, and worth being honest about. If most of your week is the SR-167 commute with one person aboard, the running cost will tell on you. If the weekend involves a boat ramp on American Lake and seven people, it earns its keep.
The Tow Vehicle
8,500 pounds properly equipped, 516 lb-ft of torque and a 9-speed with paddle shifters for engine braking on the descent. That is a genuine travel-trailer or boat rig.
The Full Household
Seven seats standard and eight available, with 20.4 cubic feet still behind the third row. For larger families in Graham, Orting and Bonney Lake that combination is hard to find.
Dark Armor or NISMO
For 2027 you can black the whole thing out with the Dark Armor package, or take the 460-horsepower NISMO. Two very different ways to spend the same money.
