2017 Nissan Armada SV Glendale Heights IL

One of the least understood parts of selecting a vehicle tends to be trim levels. When you watch a commercial for a new vehicle, the ad usually glosses over the fact that most models on the market are broken down into trim, sometimes called grades. The 2017 Nissan Armada SV, for example, is the base trim level for the model. Here at our Glendale Heights IL dealership, Glendale Nissan, we know that base trims set the standard for any vehicle, and it’s often the vehicle that shoppers seek out when they step onto your lot. The question is, does the SV offer everything you want?

With a starting MSRP of $44,900, the 2017 Nissan Armada SV is a model that is expected to impress in a variety of categories, from capability to stand-out features. We think it does, and many automotive journalists agree with us. How many other models offer standard navigation and a rear sonar system in the base model?

Is the 2017 Nissan Armada SV right for you?

When a model already comes with plenty of premium features, you might be wondering what else is out there. The 2017 Nissan Armada SV is one of three trim levels, with the SL and the Premium packing in even more available features for those looking for high-end options. The SL adds on features like heated leather-appointed seats, 20-inch wheels (the SV has 18” ones), the Around View Monitor and the Remote Engine Start System. Expanding things further, the Platinum trim takes all these features and stack on a sliding moonroof, dual-zone automatic climate control and tri-zone entertainment.

So is the SV trim level the right choice for you? Ultimately, it depends on which features you find to be necessities for your driving enthusiasm. Each trim level will feature the same 5.6-liter V8 engine paired with the 7-speed automatic transmission and offering the same maximum towing capacity of 8,500 pounds. Fuel economy, payload and drivetrain options are also all identical, leaving the differences solely at additional technology and comfort features.
