Overview & Reviews

The 2008 Nissan Armada gets a number of updates, including a new grille and headlights, a restyled cabin with a more luxurious ambiance, and a number of high-tech features. The latter include keyless starting, Bluetooth capability and a navigation system with a hard drive that allows 9GB of storage for music files.

• Powerful V8 performance, plenty of room in all three rows, fold-flat third-row seat, very capable in towing and off-road situations.

• Still some subpar interior materials, less cargo space than competitors, poor fuel economy, less than ideal ride quality.

  I love this more than my mustang! - 2008 Nissan Armada
  By mustangsally_y2k - August 28 - 11:20 am

  I cannot believe how I have grown to depend on this car both summer and winter. I bought it for a winter vehicle but we have used it to tow our 20 ft travel trailer and it pulls so much better than our truck! It is so comfy for my 6 foot frame that I like to drive my car everywhere instead of being the passenger in another car! I love the way it handles and I feel the safest I have ever felt when driving a vehicle.

  Traded 05 Pathfinder for 08 Armada - 2008 Nissan Armada
  By brandon - July 16 - 11:20 am

  Loved our Pathfinder and love our Armada. The ride is fantastic and fit and finish is far above all American competitors. Turning radius is great too. 7 inch LCD in dashboard is very functional and nice looking. 2nd row leg room and comfort is superb in Armada. Drove 200 miles all freeway and got just over 16 mpg so not bad. Lots of power to spare with the v-8. Got a nissan extended warranty when purchased. Will help ensure investment is protected (should not need to use it though).

  What an Incredible SUV!! - 2008 Nissan Armada
  By Joe - February 8 - 4:23 am

  I looked around for an SUV/minivan that would provide a safe, comfortable ride for my family of 5. I narrowed down to the Infiniti QX56, the GMC Yukon Denali and the Armada. When compared side by side, there was no question... the Armada won. The legroom and comfort are incredible. The fuel economy leaves a little to be desired, but it is a huge SUV! I am 68" tall and with the drivers seat all the way back, I can easily sit behind the driver. No other vehicle found had that much rear legroom. Bells and whistles galore plus it looks great!

  Beach blast - 2008 Nissan Armada
  By clamscasino - January 19 - 11:43 pm

  Had a ford f-150 for 11 years ,time for a big change,bought an 08 armada. This thing is a beast so much fun to drive around in. I drive it on the beach all summer and never been stuck or had a problem. As far as roomy, I put down the back 2 rows throw my dog in the back and its like a one bedroom apt back their. As far as mpg sure beats the pick up truck.

  2008 Armada LE - 2008 Nissan Armada
  By Chris - July 6 - 2:36 pm

  Just picked up my loaded 08 Armada in smoke color and we love it. I have all the bells and whistles and it all comes together really nicely. Nav works great. Traded in an 05 Pathfinder and it was an easy tranistion into the Armada. Shop around as they are offering great incentives to buy the Armada.

  Love it and options! - 2008 Nissan Armada
  By mack - June 23 - 11:40 pm

  LE 4X2 loaded! Love it! Spacious, nice interior, lots of power (if you need it) Just like a Q56, just $16,000 cheaper! Captains seats, DVD, NAV with touch screen, CF and Music box with XM. Power rear tailgate and power 3rd row! Sporty, and nice interior styling.

  The Armada is great - 2008 Nissan Armada
  By Jim - June 8 - 3:06 pm

  Its everything I need in a big SUV. I have a boat that I trailer to different lakes and need dependable power. I like the big, brawny ride and I like sitting high in traffic. The ride is very good. I enjoy running around in the Armada.

  Nice design - 2008 Nissan Armada
  By rmada - April 2 - 6:53 pm

  I had a 2005 Armada which I liked but wanted leather and dvd player. traded for the 08 model and the ride is much better. The interior is redesigned and more comfortable. Only real problem is the gas mileage, but its only a family hauler and it doesnt get driven as much.

  2wd LE - 2008 Nissan Armada
  By padjfl - January 31 - 11:33 pm

  We have had our Armada for two weeks and really are enjoying it. It has everything needed in a large SUV power, refinement, safety features, and roominess. The mileage is low but, it is a fair tradeoff for the excellent utility and to have the family in a large, safe vehicle. The Armada blew away the domestic SUVs in interior materials quality and features, especially for the price. Nissan really did their homework with this vehicle and it shows.

  Great truck - 2008 Nissan Armada
  By gr8bolr - October 13 - 2:33 am

  I bought the 2008 Armada and traded a 2005 Dodge Durango Limited. There is no comparison between the 2. The ride, room, and all the bells and whistles are all so much better in the Armada. Fuel economy leaves a lot to be desired as I travel about 20000 miles a year but I was aware going in. Great truck.
