Buying the 2012 Nissan Armada

No 2012 Nissan Armada is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. Thinking about the 2012 Nissan Armada? Here are the numbers in plain words and what to check.

Recalls and complaints

Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package.

The figures, translated

Its 5.6L 8-cylinder drives through a 5-speed automatic. It runs on regular gas. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.

It is rated at 16.0 L/100 km combined; 300 km takes about 48 litres. At our price setting, it costs about $24.80 to drive 100 km. The EPA estimates US$4,450 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.

Room inside

The higher seat of an SUV gives a good view of the road in traffic.

Who rents the Armada

Families, skiers and anyone with bulky luggage. It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else.

Drive it on your own roads

Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience. Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer. Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car.

What it costs to run

A 1,000 km month costs roughly $248 at our price setting. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.

Picking a year and a trim

Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. Within the 2012 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which.

One more step

Send a request to rent the model first, or ask us what we can do.

Rent it for a week before you buy

A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a 2012 Nissan Armada from us first.
