Inside, the upgrades continue with quilted leather-appointed seats featuring red accents, adjustable seat bolsters, aluminum pedals and NISMO badging throughout. Nissan's new NISMO variant joins the existing Armada trims — SV, SL, Platinum, PRO-4X and Platinum Reserve — and represents the sportiest version of the lineup. The new NISMO Armada is expected to arrive at dealerships this fall.
