Nissan don’t play around when it comes to their legacy nameplates. The patrol is a huge name in the Middle East and Australia. If Nissan were to mess up this truck it would affect those markets. Meaning the armada is as best as it gets. PROS: 1. VR motor has been around for awhile actually. 2. That 9speed trans is pretty good and is designed by Mercedes( IT IS NOT A CVT btw. It’s also used in the titan, frontier, Nissan Z and the Aston Martin DBX) 3. The overall looks of this thing is my favorite, saw a post on IG with it wearing the Nismo wheels and it looks amazing. Finally the interior is up to spec. 4. Love the fact that the seats fold totally flat so you can use it as a platform for an air bed etc. CONS: 1. It’s still a turbo engine, while Nissan has been making new turbo engines I would think that they have finally nailed down the reliability. I read somewhere that they played around with the cooling and oiling of the turbos. especially anticipating that the truck will be at an incline when off roading. 2. Cooling can be an issue, I am not sure if it has an air to air intercooler(air to air is good) or a water to air intercooler(good, but not the best). 3. It’s probably direct injection, is an everywhere now sadly. You can help the engine by installing an aftermarket oil catch can(Do some research on this, can cost anywhere between $50-$500). I am sure Z1offroad will make a kit for this truck. Tips if you plan on buying one. 1. Change your oil every 5k miles atleast. 2. Install a aftermarket catch can 3. Change your trans fluid at 30k miles if you can. Do not exceed 50k miles 4 if you want your car/truck to last do your maintenance ahead of schedule, these manufacturers are purposely setting intervals too high know that the vehicle will be out of warranty by then and then it will break causing you to pay out of pocket or buy a whole new car. For example I am a Toyota tech, I’ve seen Toyota telling folks it’s 10k miles for oil change on the new Camry, if you follow that advise your car would barely make it to 120k miles. If you do it at 5k however you have a really good chance at making it to 200k. DO YOUR RESEARCH FOLKS‼️

It's a lot more than just being based on the Patrol, it practically is the Patrol. The older generation of Armada had nerfed driveline components and a less sophisticated 4x4 system when compared to the Patrol. Specifically the driveshafts, differentials, and cv joints were all smaller and weaker which made them much more prone to breakage. This new armada has not taken such unnecessary cost cutting measures. This is great because the same people who want a pro-4x are the same people who would turn away from an Armada that is weaker than a Patrol.

Beautiful rig, but those wheels have got to go. 18 inch wheels max and a taller tire. Still prefer the 5.6 V8, but the twin turbo is more desirable than the hybrid setups. Ultimate ski vehicle, better late than never!

Im just glad the armada is not a stripped down version of the patrol. I wish the seqouia had an option of having just a twin turbo v6 without the hybrid stuff. They should price this competitively, it'll sell like pancakes.

@@justinsalazar9070 do like the sequoia pluses , has a solid rear axle ,over the independent rear axle like the rest , the fold down 3 rd row and 2nd row take up to much space for me to even consider a sequoia we want camping space ,one has to look at payload ratings also

Do car reviewers know you could replace the tires for maybe $1,500? Why a big deal about the tires on a $65,000 vehicle? Also, no mention of the hidden rear wiper? A big deal if you live where it snows. Thanks Nissan. Looks like my new vehicle but a poor review by you two guys.

Is it? Its a Patrol its in its own league it will destroy any American SUV, even a Landcruiser can't keep up with a Patrol. These things are tested in terrains way harsher than what North America terrains are like. I seen one of these Patrols pass every vehicle in the Amazon Jungle with ease. There were ZERO American vehicles there btw no one was going to risk the failure. Of course American fanboys will have a fit but its known worldwide get over it.
