For the 2026 model year, Nissan introduces a major novelty in the range of full size with the very first Nismo version of Armada. This performance focused on performance is added to the SL, Platinum, Pro-4X and Platinum Reserve models.
The 2026 range will be sold this fall in Canada, with a retail price suggested by the manufacturer (PDSF) starting at $ 85,498. This is a small increase of $ 500 compared to the previous year.

Nissan Armada 2026 – What’s new?
The large armada was revised for 2025 and therefore returns relatively unchanged for the new model year. The most significant addition to the range is without doubtful the NISMO model, which positions the armada in the performance SUV segment.
It is distinguished first by its increased power, becoming the most powerful armada ever produced with 460 horsepower, an increase of 35 compared to other versions when super fuel is used. This performance is supplemented by more direct maneuverability and a more pronounced exhaust sound.
Visually, the Nismo version affirms its character thanks to aesthetic elements which are specific to it, in particular the front and rear fairings, the grille, steps and a rear spoiler. To complete its sporting appearance, a single paint option, the stealth gray, is offered exclusively on this model.
A range for different needs
In addition to the Nismo novelty, the Armada 2026 range retains versions with distinct vocations, renewed from the 2025 model.
For off-road driving enthusiasts, the Pro-4X version is equipped with all-terrain tires, a specific front bumper increasing the approach angle, metal protection plates under the chassis, an electronic blocking differential and an adaptive electronic pneumatic suspension. Winged widening, 20-inch pro-4x rims and several Red Red Accents complete its appearance.
Technology and capacities
All Armada 2026 models have three rows of seats and maximum towing capacity of up to 8,500 pounds. The Nissan Safety Shield 360 security suite is also standard.
The standard technological equipment includes invisible hood view, front wide view and the visualization screen of the smart 3D perimeter. A high-end KLIPSCH® audio system with 12 speakers is also included as standard on all models. The Propilot Assist 2.1 assistance system, which allows hands -free driving on the highway, is available as an option.
