Summary
The Pathfinder Armada is Nissan's first full-size sport-utility, but you'd never know by driving it as it's a well-designed and executed entry. We are extremely impressed with the Armada's powertrain. Few owners will push it even close to its dynamic capabilities. Its cleverly conceived interior provides both the room and the creature features that should satisfy its owners.In short, the new Nissan Armada may be the best vehicle in its class.
