With a full redesign comes many concerned consumers. A new generation marks the end of an era for a vehicle, and typically the next-gen version is a dramatic reimagining of the original.
As such, we're relieved to report that the completely redesigned 2017 Nissan Armada isn't completely redesigned. Sure, it's wrapped in all-new style and star-studded in the latest technologies, but the 2017 Armada retains its rugged construction with a classic body-on-frame design. This truck-based SUV boasts a sturdy steel frame and an available four-wheel-drive system for plenty of confidence both on- and off-road. It's said that the 2017 model sports 20 percent most twisted body stiffness for improved ride and handling.
You can catch a glimpse of this upcoming model by watching the quick clip below from auto critic Steve Hammes, and you can learn more about it by reaching out to the sales staff here at Lithia Nissan of Ames. While we wait for the 2017 Armada's arrival, we recommend checking out the 2015 model to get a feel for this uniquely brawny SUV by test driving any of the available 2015 Armadas in the new Nissan inventory at our Ames, IA facility.
