Feb 18, 2016

With rising gas prices and more focus on environmentally friendly vehicles, the popularity of the large SUV has several diminished the past few years, until recently. Gas prices are low and people are beginning to shift their attention back to this powerful, beastly vehicles. The new 2017 Nissan Armada is making a comeback and drew a lot of attention when it was revealed at the Chicago Auto Show.

The 390 horsepower 5.6-liter V8 engine is “shockingly quiet” and if you opt for the 4X4 version, it can tow up to 8,500 pounds. Nick Jaynes, an automotive writer at Mashable, reviewed the new SUV, commenting that the “fleet of warships” name was rather appropriate and the 2016 Armada is going to “bring a bit of attitude” back to the full sized SUV family. We look forward to seeing it on the road!
