The 2008 Nissan Armada full-size SUV caters to those who need serious towing ability along with space to haul up to eight passengers. The sturdy full-size 2008 Nissan Armada is based on the Titan pickup, so it’s built on a fully boxed truck frame.
The 2008 Nissan Armada comes with a 317-horsepower, 5.6-liter V-8, fitted to a five-speed automatic transmission and offered with either rear- or four-wheel drive. The powertrain affords a class-leading towing capacity of up to 9,100 pounds and has the capability to drive on ethanol-blend fuel. With 385 pound-feet of torque, it can move the 5,300-pound Armada quite authoritatively, even with a full load of passengers, thanks to the very responsive five-speed automatic, which doesn’t hesitate to downshift when needed. Fuel economy is a shameful 12 mpg in the city, which seems optimistic next to single-digit real-world results.
