2024 Nissan Armada: What's New, Specs & Features
Last updated August 4, 2026
The main change for the 2024 Nissan Armada is the loss of the base S trim, which makes SV the new starting point. Otherwise, this is a quiet final year for the outgoing generation.
About the 2024 Nissan Armada
2nd generation (2017-2024), refreshed for 2021, final year before the all-new 2025 redesign.
Nissan positions Armada as a traditional full-size SUV for families who need real towing strength, real 4WD hardware, and a roomy three-row cabin instead of crossover-like packaging. The marketing centers on V8 power, up to 8,500 pounds of towing, confidence on rough roads, and a cabin that feels richer than many mainstream rivals. In simple terms, Armada is the big Nissan SUV for hauling people, trailers, and gear in comfort.
The 2024 Armada lineup runs from the well-equipped SV to the more polished SL and luxury-focused Platinum. Every trim has a 5.6-liter V8, three rows of seating, and an 8,500-pound tow rating; SL adds features such as a 360-degree camera and Bose audio, while Platinum brings quilted leather, cooled front seats, and heated second-row seats.
