2020 Nissan Armada Facelift

The exterior of the new 2020 Nissan Armada will be somehow changed. The front end will get some sharper lines and it looks much aggressive than the predecessor.

The standard model will be equipped with the 18-inch wheels, while SL and Platinum trim will be offered with much bigger 20- inches wheels.

Interior Changes and Trim Offers

The 2020 Nissan Armada family SUV comes with a modern and stylish cabin. Also, there is plenty of space inside and as we already wrote at the beginning there are three-row of seats. There is enough space for up to eight passengers.

The higher trims like Platinum will offer more high materials along with updated techs.

The base one SV will offer many techs inside and buyers will get an 8-inch infotainment system with updated navigation. Also, plenty of USB ports are available, along with Bluetooth connectivity.

2020 Nissan Armada Engine

The upcoming 2020 Nissan Armada will be available with two engine variants under the hood. From some rumors, the manufacturer will add one new engine. However, the aging 5.6-liter V8 will also remain and will get some fuel economy improvements. This powerful engine is able to produce 390 horsepower and 394 pound-feet of torque. It is paired with a seven-speed automatic transmission.

With this engine, the Armada model runs from 0 to 60 mph in 5,9 sec, while the top speed is limited to the 133 mph. The EPA city/highway fuel economy of the V8 engine is little better if we compare it with the current one and it gives in the city/highways 15/19 mpg with the RWD model and 14/18 mpg for the 4WD system.

However, at this moment there is no official word what will bring the new engine and what output will provide as the fuel economy. Like the previous Armada, the new model will come with the standard rear-wheel-drive (RWD) system or optional four-wheel drive system (4WD).
