Car.com 2026 Best SUV Winner: Say Hello to the 2026 Nissan Armada

The new Nissan Armada is a commanding presence in the automotive world. Delivering a combination of family-friendly features and working capability, it’s not hard to see why this ride landed at the top of the Cars.com best SUV list. 

Keep reading as we explore what makes the new Nissan Armada for 2026 a standout in its class, from interior luxury to towing capability and everything new in between. 

What's New for the 2026 Armada?

The biggest change to come to the Armada this year is the introduction of the race-ready NISMO model. 

 

The 2026 Nissan Armada NISMO is sporty and sleek, outfitting unique 22-inch wheels, a rear spoiler, and front and rear bumpers designed just for the NISMO. Adding to its race-inspired looks is quilted leather upholstery with red accent lines, ensuring the interior is just as ready to cross the finish line as the exterior. 

Turbocharged & Ready to Haul

All Armada models come equipped with a 3.5-liter twin-turbocharged V6 engine, producing a powerful 425 horsepower and 516 lb-ft of torque. If you need a little more strength under the hood, bump up the power to 460 horsepower in the NISMO model. 

 

The Armada pairs with a nine-speed automatic transmission and standard rear-wheel drive, though four-wheel drive is available. 

 

The Armada is more than just a powerful SUV built for family adventures; it doubles as a capable workhorse. Rated to tow up to 8,500 pounds, the Nissan Armada proves it's more than capable for the long haul. 

The 2026 Nissan Armada Interior: Comfort Comes First

The new Armada delivers a modern interior where comfort comes first. The front seats offer plenty of cushion and flexibility, with higher trims adding an extra layer of luxury with high-end materials like quilted leather upholstery. 

 

Cushioned seats aren't just a front-seat perk; you’ll also find them in the second and third rows. A second-row bench seat comes standard, but you can switch it for captain's chairs, taking passenger capacity from eight to seven. 

 

Whether you opt for seven or eight of your closest friends and family, rest assured you'll have the space for everything you need (and want)! 

 

Car and Driver put the Armada's cargo capacity to the test, and it did not disappoint. You can easily store 6 carry-on suitcases behind the third row. Fold down the third-row seats to bump up the storage space to an impressive 24 suitcases. 

Tech-Forward & Thriving

The 2026 Armada is future-forward with an impressive technology suite. All trims come standard with not one but two 12.3-inch screens that span across the dashboard. The left screen serves as a digital gauge cluster, while the right is the touchscreen infotainment system. 

 

Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are also standard features, with higher trims offering additional features, including: 

 

  • Available Google built-in apps 
  • 12-speaker Klipsch stereo system
  • Available 14.3-inch touchscreen
