The 2026 Nissan Armada has arrived — and it’s redefining what a full-size SUV can be. Whether you’re looking for a family vehicle with luxury-level comfort or an adventure-ready machine with serious power, the new Armada delivers on every front.

 

At Kunes Nissan of Davenport, we’re thrilled to introduce this next-generation SUV to our Quad Cities drivers. The 2026 Armada brings together commanding design, refined technology, and the trusted capability you expect from Nissan — all in one bold package.

Bold New Design for a New Era

The first thing you’ll notice about the 2026 Armada is its fresh, modern look. Nissan has completely reimagined the SUV’s design from the ground up, blending rugged strength with high-end sophistication.

 

Up front, a redesigned grille and full-width LED lighting create an unmistakable presence. The sculpted hood and smooth body lines add aerodynamic efficiency while maintaining the bold, muscular stance that drivers love.

 

Step inside, and the transformation continues. The 2026 Armada’s cabin is spacious, elegant, and designed with intention. Premium materials like soft-touch surfaces, available leather seating, and real wood trim elevate the interior feel. Every passenger — from the front row to the third — enjoys a comfortable, quiet ride.

 

For families and travelers alike, the new Armada delivers a sense of calm luxury that makes every journey more enjoyable.

Power and Performance That Inspire Confidence

The heart of the 2026 Nissan Armada beats with a twin-turbocharged 3.5-liter V6 engine, producing over 420 horsepower and more than 500 lb-ft of torque. That’s a big leap forward from previous models — and you’ll feel the difference every time you hit the accelerator.

 

This powertrain is paired with a smooth, responsive 9-speed automatic transmission that balances strength with efficiency. Whether you’re merging onto the highway or towing a trailer, the Armada feels solid and confident.

 

Speaking of towing — the 2026 Armada is built to handle the big stuff. With up to 8,500 pounds of towing capacity, it’s perfect for hauling boats, campers, or utility trailers. Add in available Intelligent 4WD and selectable drive modes, and you’ve got an SUV that’s ready for any adventure, rain or shine, pavement or dirt.

 

For those who love a sportier edge, Nissan has added a performance-oriented trim with enhanced handling and suspension tuning — ideal for drivers who want even more excitement from their full-size SUV.

Innovative Technology, Inside and Out

Nissan knows that modern drivers expect modern tech, and the 2026 Armada doesn’t disappoint. The dashboard is anchored by a massive 14-inch touchscreen display that provides easy access to navigation, entertainment, and vehicle settings.

 

You’ll enjoy wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™, multiple USB-C ports, and a premium sound system that fills the cabin with crystal-clear audio.

 

Other standout features include:

 

  • Digital driver display for essential info right in your line of sight
  • Wireless charging pad for your devices
  • Wi-Fi hotspot capability so everyone stays connected
  • Voice-activated controls for a hands-free experience


The Armada’s technology isn’t just about convenience — it’s about peace of mind. Nissan’s suite of driver-assist technologies, including ProPILOT Assist, Intelligent Cruise Control, and 360-degree cameras, helps make every drive safer and more relaxed.

Room for Everyone — and Everything

With seating for up to eight passengers, the 2026 Armada is perfect for families, road trippers, and anyone who values space. The second-row captain’s chairs (available on higher trims) make it easy for everyone to settle in comfortably, while the third row provides plenty of legroom for adults and kids alike.

 

Need cargo space? The Armada’s flexible seating configuration lets you fold the rear rows flat to create a huge, open area for hauling luggage, groceries, or outdoor gear. Power-folding seats and a hands-free liftgate make loading and unloading effortless.

 

In short — whether you’re heading to a kids’ soccer game, a weekend getaway, or a long family road trip, the Armada is built to make it easy, comfortable, and fun.

Trim Levels That Match Your Lifestyle

Nissan offers the 2026 Armada in a variety of trims, each tailored to different needs and preferences.

 

  • SV: A well-equipped entry point with advanced safety tech, a large display, and premium feel.
  • SL: Adds luxury touches like leather upholstery, upgraded wheels, and added convenience features.
  • Platinum: The top-of-the-line model with all the bells and whistles — including ventilated seats, a panoramic moonroof, and advanced driver assistance.

No matter which model you choose, you’ll find exceptional value and craftsmanship built into every detail.

Here in Davenport, drivers face a mix of city streets, country roads, and Midwest weather. The 2026 Armada was built for exactly that balance — powerful enough for towing and off-roading, refined enough for daily commutes, and tough enough for winter driving.
