Built on an all-new platform, the all-new Nissan Pathfinder Armada features a rugged, fully boxed high-strength steel frame; an independent rear suspension designed for improved interior roominess, comfort and handling; and an all-new 5.6-liter DOHC 32-valve Nissan Endurance V8 engine offering one of the highest standard horsepower/torque ratings in the full-size light duty SUV class and the highest maximum towing capacity in that class at 9,100 pounds (when properly equipped).

A 5-speed automatic transmission is standard on every Pathfinder Armada (the first available in class), while 4-wheel drive models feature an advanced full-time design with a two-speed transfer case with 4-Lo and Auto 4x4 technology.
