The 2014 Nissan Armada is part of the vehicle's first generation, originated in 2004. Its exclusive powertrain is a powerful 5.6-liter V8 engine that produces a generous 317 horsepower and 385 lb-ft of torque, mated to a 5-speed automatic transmission. Rear-wheel drive is standard, with optional four-wheel drive for more challenging terrains. The full-size Armada offers seating for eight passengers and comes in three trims: SV, SL, and Platinum. Upper trims come with advanced features like premium navigation, Bose audio system, and rear-seat entertainment. As for safety, features like front-seat side-impact airbags, full-length side curtain-type airbags, and electronic stability control are standard across the Armada line. However, it does lack more modern safety techs compared to its contemporary peers.
