2027 Armada Model Review: Hattiesburg, MS

2027 Nissan Armada: Full-Size Room for the Road Ahead

The 2027 Nissan Armada combines a spacious three-row cabin with twin-turbocharged power and body-on-frame construction. As Nissan’s full-size SUV, it is built for drivers who need room for people and their gear without leaving towing capability behind. For 2027, the lineup offers five distinct trims, including the off-road-focused PRO-4X and performance-oriented NISMO.

For Petro Nissan shoppers exploring a 2027 Nissan Armada in Hattiesburg, MS, seating needs and trailer requirements can help narrow the choices.

2027 Nissan Armada Trim Levels: Choose Your Priorities

The 2027 Nissan Armada trim levels offer different details to suit different preferences:

• SL: Available Dark Armor styling adds black wheels, dark trim, and black leatherette seats
• Platinum: An Intelligent Dash Cam and multicolor ambient lighting add everyday convenience and atmosphere
• PRO-4X: The available Premium Package adds features including heated second-row seats and Biometric Cooling
• NISMO: Body-colored running boards and aluminum pedals complement its performance-oriented design
• Platinum Reserve: A standard front far-side airbag distinguishes this trim

Interior Specs and Features: Room for People and Plans

The Armada’s three-row cabin adapts to a full passenger list or a load of gear. Second-row captain’s chairs and seating for seven are standard. The SL, Platinum, PRO-4X, and Platinum Reserve offer an available second-row bench for eight-passenger seating; the NISMO seats seven. The standard EZ FLEX® system has a one-touch release to help passengers reach the third row. Legroom measures 43.8 inches in front, 39.2 inches in the second row, and 32.9 inches in the third. Standard tri-zone automatic temperature control includes rear air vents, and the front seats use Nissan’s Zero Gravity design.

Materials give the cabin a different feel from one trim to the next. The SL uses TailorFit™ seating, the PRO-4X has a distinct TailorFit design with quilted inserts, and the Platinum and Platinum Reserve feature quilted leather appointments. The NISMO features suede seating. Heated and cooled front seats are standard on the Platinum and Platinum Reserve and available on the PRO-4X with its Premium Package. Massaging front seats are standard on the NISMO and Platinum Reserve. For luggage and everyday cargo, the Armada provides 20.4 cubic feet behind the third row. Fold the standard power-operated 60/40-split third row for 56.3 cubic feet, or both rear rows for 97.1 cubic feet. Cargo capacity is limited by weight and distribution, so secure your load and check the vehicle’s limits.

Exterior Design: A Bold Shape with a Purpose

The Armada makes its full-size proportions clear with a broad stance and upright profile. Most trims measure 209.6 inches long, while the NISMO measures 210.9 inches. All are 79.9 inches wide without mirrors, measurements worth checking against your garage or usual parking space.

LED headlights and taillights are standard. The SL and Platinum wear 20-inch machined and painted alloy wheels, and the Platinum Reserve has 22-inch wheels. The PRO-4X pairs its 20-inch wheels with all-terrain tires, a unique front bumper, red tow hooks, and an underbody metal skid plate. The NISMO has its own front and rear fascias, grille, rear spoiler, and 22-inch wheels. A power liftgate is standard on the SL and PRO-4X. The Platinum, NISMO, and Platinum Reserve have a motion-activated liftgate, which is also available on the PRO-4X.

Power and Performance: Twin-Turbo Strength for the Trip

A twin-turbocharged 3.5-liter V6 powers the Armada through a nine-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters. The SL, Platinum, PRO-4X, and Platinum Reserve are rated at 425 horsepower and 516 lb-ft of torque. The NISMO raises output to 460 horsepower with the same torque. These ratings are based on premium fuel. Premium is required for the NISMO; the other trims require regular unleaded and recommend premium.

The SL offers rear-wheel drive or four-wheel drive, while the other trims have standard four-wheel drive. A drive mode selector and Tow Mode are standard, and Hill Descent Control is included on four-wheel-drive models. These features give drivers additional choices when conditions change, though they cannot eliminate traction limits.

The 2027 Nissan Armada towing capacity reaches up to 8,500 pounds when properly equipped. A Class IV hitch receiver, trailer wiring, Trailer Sway Control, and Trailer Back-up Assist are standard. The PRO-4X, NISMO, and Platinum Reserve add an integrated trailer brake controller. Capacity varies by configuration, so check the specific vehicle’s rating along with trailer and tongue weights, passengers, and cargo before towing. The PRO-4X adds an electronic locking rear differential and Adaptive Electronic Air Suspension for routes beyond the pavement. The NISMO has its own suspension and steering tuning. Choose routes and speeds appropriate for the conditions.

Key Technology Features: A Wide View of Your Drive

The Armada puts vehicle information and entertainment within easy reach. The SL uses a 12.3-inch touchscreen alongside a 12.3-inch Advanced Drive-Assist® Display. The other four trims have two 14.3-inch displays. Wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ are standard for compatible phones.

Five useful features include:

• Klipsch® audio: A standard 12-speaker system fills the cabin with sound

Safety Review: Support for the Road and the Trailer

Standard Nissan Safety Shield® 360 and other driver-assistance features provide support in a range of driving situations. The Armada also includes child-seat upper tether anchors, the LATCH system, and rear-door child safety locks.

Five features to know include:

• Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection: Standard assistance in certain situations involving a detected vehicle or pedestrian
• Blind Spot Warning: Standard alerts when a vehicle is detected in the blind-spot area
