The cheapest 2027 Nissan Armada costs $5,450 more than last year’s entry model. Nissan dropped the SV trim, so the 2027 Nissan Armada price now starts at $64,290 for an SL 4×2, plus $2,275 destination. With Toyota pricing the 2027 Sequoia from $69,900 on Nov. 4, 2026, the SL with the new $1,900 Dark Armor package is the Armada worth shopping. The pricier trims are a harder sell.
Quick answer: The 2027 Nissan Armada starts at $64,290 for the SL 4×2 and tops out at $84,590 for the Platinum Reserve 4×4, before a $2,275 destination charge. A new $1,900 Dark Armor package is offered on the SL. Every trim uses a twin-turbo V6 rated at 425 hp or more, with towing up to 8,500 pounds.
How much does the 2027 Nissan Armada cost by trim?
Nissan’s US newsroom published the 2027 Armada price list on Sept. 17, 2026, and the SUV is on sale now. These figures are MSRP and exclude the $2,275 destination and handling charge.
- SL 4×2: $64,290
- SL 4×4: $67,290
- Platinum 4×4: $75,790
- PRO-4X: $78,990
- NISMO 4×4: $80,690
- Platinum Reserve 4×4: $84,590
Autoevolution’s Sept. 18, 2026 comparison lists the 2026 SV at $58,840, the SL at $63,530 and the Platinum at $70,490. That makes the 2027 Platinum $5,300 dearer, the steepest jump in the lineup. Nissan’s release doesn’t mention the SV or year-over-year changes, so those 2026 figures come from the outlet.
What does the Dark Armor package add?
Dark Armor is a $1,900 option on the SL. Nissan blacks out the roof rails, window trim, grille and lower fascia, then fits black 20-inch wheels and black badges. Inside you get black upholstery, darkened trim on the dash, steering wheel and console, and a panoramic moonroof.
That roof is the reason to tick the box. A panoramic roof on an SL for $1,900 beats stepping up to a Platinum, which costs $8,500 more than an SL 4×4. An SL 4×4 with Dark Armor lands at $69,190 before destination, or $6,600 under the Platinum 4×4. You give up the Platinum’s extra equipment, but if the roof and the look were pulling you up the ladder, Dark Armor gets you there for less.
Is the Armada a better deal than the Toyota Sequoia?
On price, slightly. Toyota’s Nov. 4, 2026 Sequoia release lists a $69,900 starting price. An Armada SL 4×4 with Dark Armor comes in $710 lower, and an SL 4×2 starts $5,610 lower. Our breakdown of the 2027 Toyota Sequoia price and Trailhunter package covers the Toyota side in detail.
On paper, the Toyota pulls harder. Its i-Force Max hybrid makes 437 hp and 583 lb-ft and tows up to 9,120 pounds, against the Armada’s 425 hp, 516 lb-ft and 8,500 pounds. If you pull a heavy travel trailer, that 620-pound rating gap matters more than the price gap. If you’re cross-shopping more widely, check the Ford Expedition’s 2026 prices and trims as well.
There’s a fuel catch on the Nissan side. Nissan’s footnotes say the 425 hp and 516 lb-ft ratings are based on premium fuel only, and the NISMO’s 460 hp also needs premium. Run regular and you won’t see the advertised numbers. Price a year of premium before you call the Armada the cheaper SUV to own.
Which 2027 Armada trim should you buy?
For most families, the SL 4×4 with Dark Armor. Nissan quotes a standard tow rating of up to 8,500 pounds, with fine print that capacity varies by configuration. Before you hitch anything heavy, check the exact rating for the truck on the lot; our guide to finding towing capacity by VIN walks through it.
Buy the PRO-4X only if you’ll use its hardware. Nissan fits it with an electronic locking rear differential, Adaptive Electronic Air Suspension, all-terrain tires and a metal underbody skid plate. That’s $11,700 over an SL 4×4 for gear that many owners will never engage.
Two limits on this advice. Dealers set the final price, and Nissan can revise MSRPs during the model year. The 2026 comparison figures come from a third-party outlet, not from Nissan.
Who loses out now that the Armada SV is gone?
Shoppers who wanted an Armada for under $60,000. That SUV no longer exists on the 2027 price sheet, so leftover 2026 SV models on dealer lots are the only route to that number. The 2027 Nissan Armada price now opens at $64,290, and a 4×4 SL with Dark Armor at $69,190 still undercuts the cheapest 2027 Sequoia by $710.
