Why the 2023 Nissan Armada Is Worth Every Penny | Review

The 2023 Nissan Armada continues to meet the needs of drivers looking for full-size SUV strength and capability with an extensive list of premium features and technologies. For 2023, Armada further enhances its appeal with additional hands-free technology and more standard features.

I just bought a 23’ Armada Platinum. It’s not just a powerful beast but absolutely gorgeous inside and out. The comfort, quality, intelligent and safety features as well as the value made this my top choice over its competitors.

I am sold on this beast. Not a fan of Turbo/EV/hybrid engines. Thanks for the great review.

[TheRastari]

Happy to know nissan are still making the patrol famous around the world
Sitting in it instead of on top of it good distinction

[tommyaoi]

Nice video. Love how you really got in there with the camera to show us everything. 😀
I prefer function over looks first, and this looks like something I can finally say o want to get. 😊

Was looking at the new Jeep Wagoneer Grand Wagoneer, but now seeing this makes me wonder if I should give this Armada a close look and a test drive. Lot of very useful options and some the Grand Wagoneer does not offer. The price of the Grand Wagoneer was $114, 000 dollars. This SUV is thousand less in price. Money for a new boat, travel trailer, etc. Thanks for another great review.

[SlavaUkraini]

Only had this as a rental. Very nice vehicle. Loved the power and smoothness of the V8!

[danwaller]

How many vehicles today come with AUTOMATIC LOAD LEVELING SUSPENSION ON ALL TRIM LEVELS !! I BOUGHT A 2023 SL . AMAZING VEHICLE

[GaryCausey-zv]

We own an Armada SL trim. Undoubtably amazing cockpit controls, turning radius is great much better than my C-Max hybrid, yes this is true. Very quiet ride with the feeling of a smooth glide pattern. The torque and explosive “step on it “ …. Awesome. Very happy with our decision to buy. Nissan SL, 22” Bridgestone tires, 26, 000 miles loved every mile registered. 😎

Nissan Armada is the same as Nissan Patrol in the Gulf, with slight differences otherwise.

[tomwujek]

Great review! This is definitely on my short list for some large SUV's I'm considering. I love a naturally aspirated V8, and it has a great profile. Also love the mix of features and overall value it offers.

[dogwu]

I love the Armada, i had a 2005 SE and at least 4 other Nissan/Infiniti products. I'd much rather have the Nismo Patrol over this or the QX80. Still got TV's in the headrest? Its so 2002.

[markshattis]

🇺🇲☝️
The rear bumper is almost like a "Jay Leno chin"? LOL

[danwaller]

I don’t believe many of the competitors you mentioned at the end are comparable. Most all are much smaller

[perrykoch]

Hey Lauren Fix, awesome quality reporting on the 2023 Nissan Armada. Car Coach Reports is extremely successful from (Lauren Lead Foot) continuing hard work ethics and youthful exuberance.

[bobdavis]

Grill area kind of reminds me a a Bassett hound

[littlemac]

Armada, tahoe, expedition. What's your pick?

[bobdavis]

Same engine as it's Infiniti cousin. Same exact engine and specs. Prolly requires 91 octane at minimum for optimum performance. Anyone looking for good fuel mileage are definitely looking at the wrong rig.

[bobdavis]

Car and Driver tested this vehicle's 0-60 in 5.9 seconds. So this cow hauls arse. I like it a lot. LENO chin not withstanding. It got the goods. But not the nads or room of a Nav L.

[bobdavis]

I really like this car. Not crazy about 6 large buttox. But still like it.

[RigiLiquid]

fuelcosts are too high. A diesel would be better.
