Fuel and cargo figures are The Car Guide's for 2026; check NRCan's Fuel Consumption Guide for the official rating.

Armada green levy and luxury tax

Green levy: The Car Guide lists a CA$1,000 federal green levy for the 2026 SL and NISMO; their figures, weighted 55% city and 45% highway, give about 13.7 L/100 km, in the 13 to under 14 L/100 km band. For other trims and 2027 models, check the levy on the bill of sale.

Luxury tax: the tax is the lesser of 10% of the price or 20% of the amount over CA$100,000, and it applies to vehicles with a gross vehicle weight rating of 3,856 kg or less. Confirm the Armada's rating with your dealer. If it applies, the 2027 NISMO would pay about CA$1,000 and the Platinum Reserve about CA$1,400 at base MSRP, and options could push a PRO-4X past CA$100,000.
