Nismo isn’t just a badge; it actually stands for something. Mush the words "NISsan" and "MOtorsport" together, and that gets you to Nismo. But even with that historic tie to motorsport right there in its name, Nissan plays it pretty fast and loose with the Nismo badge these days.
Remember the Juke Nismo? What about the Sentra Nismo? Hell, in Japan, there are even Ariya and Note Nismo models. Point is: Nissan isn’t afraid to slap a Nismo badge, big wheels, and red accents onto almost everything it makes. Most recently, that thinking has extended to the three-row Armada.
