What Changed

The second generation QX56 is no longer related to the Nissan Armada and Titan. Compared to the prior model the new QX is longer and wider and retains its tow ratings and eight passenger seating capability. The 5.6l V8 now outputs 400-bhp and moves a lighter vehicle, so the QX should be quicker. Fuel economy has increased to 14/20 (city/highway).
