The 2025 Nissan Armada redefines power with 516 lb-ft of torque and GT-R-inspired technology, delivering more performance and efficiency on any terrain.
The new Nissan Armada 2025 It has been presented with a renewed engine that enhances the limits of power and efficiency in SUVs. as well indicates Nissanthis vehicle has achieved a torque record with 516 lb-ft.
This record represents an increase of 103 lb-ft compared to the previous model. Impressive performance is the result of years of development and engineering, based on the experience gained with the legendary GT-R.
New VR35DDTT Engine in the 2025 Nissan Armada
The secret behind this feat is the new engine VR35DDTTa twin-turbo V6 that not only outperforms the previous V8 engine in power, but is also more efficient.
According to Nissan, the engine produces astonishing torque, greater than any other production engine from the brand. This achievement is due to a cutting-edge design that optimizes the relationship between fuel pressure, piston geometry and valve timing, all with the goal of maximizing airflow and reducing emissions.
Innovations based on the GT-R legacy
Nissan engineers, inspired by the technology used in the iconic GT-R, have implemented unique innovations in the new engine of the 2025 Armada.
A prominent example is the use of an oil pump «scavenger«, originally designed for the GT-R, which ensures efficient lubrication in situations of high lateral acceleration, such as tight corners or demanding terrain.
This technology is also key to the Nissan Patrol, the Armada’s sibling in Middle Eastern markets, where drivers frequently face extreme conditions such as sand dunes.
In addition, to reduce noise and improve engine durability, Nissan has incorporated turbines made with a nickel alloy (Mar-M), a material used in aircraft engines and gas turbines, which withstands extreme temperatures and is resistant to corrosion. corrosion.
Thanks to this latest innovation, the Armada’s new engine is able to maintain optimal performance even in extreme conditions, from the cold winters of Minnesota to the scorching summers of Death Valley.
Performance and efficiency tailored to each environment
As Nissan points out, the development team conducted extensive testing in 13 US states, fine-tuning engine calibration and design to ensure consistent performance regardless of the environment.
Among the improvements implemented is the optimization of fuel pressure (now 35 MPa, compared to 15 MPa in the previous engine), as well as greater piston travel (100.2 mm compared to 92 mm in the outgoing model), which allowing better air and fuel flow.
Another feature that contributes to the performance of the new Armada is the 9-speed automatic transmission, which provides quick and smooth response. Nissan adjusted the gear ratios to ensure powerful acceleration from the start and more controlled handling on difficult roads.
Versatile and powerful SUV
The new 2025 Nissan Armada not only stands out for its impressive torque and power of 425 horsepower, but also for its ability to tow up to 8,500 pounds.
This makes it an ideal option for both those seeking adventure in difficult terrain and for those who need a reliable vehicle for everyday use. Plus, thanks to its optimized design and more efficient engine, drivers can enjoy a greener driving experience without sacrificing performance.
Finally, and as Nissan points out, this SUV represents a step forward in terms of performance, comfort and efficiency, making use of the experience accumulated in the development of the GT-R.
