  • www.autobytel.com/nissan/pathf... Nissan redesigned the Pathfinder last year transforming it from a rugged off-road SUV into a 7-passenger crossover. Prices range from $29k-$41k depending on the trim level. The model tested here is the SL 4x4 which has a base price of $36,850 before the technology and towing packages.
    Under the hood is a dependable 3.5 liter V-6 engine that makes 260 horsepower and 240 lb-ft. of torque. The transmission is a very refined CVT and the fuel economy is 19 MPG in the city and 25 MPG on the highway.
    With the latest Pathfinder design, Nissan has taken the tough 4x4 and created a minivan wrapped in a Crossover SUV body. That may sound like a bad thing until you know that Nissan has doubled Pathfinder sales.

    I really enjoy these reviews. They described every flaw with the vehicle that would influence my buying decision instead of just being about the good things about a car. The car websites tell me all the good things about a car I need to know. Tell me what would make me not wanna buy a certain car! Well done:)

    Excellent Review. Very complete and covers all the topics I am interested in when choosing an SUV.

    Recently purchased a 2014 Pathfinder as our family wagon (4WD SV version) and we love it. We tested most of the vehicles in this market, and the Pathfinder came out on top overall. I also have to take issue with the reviewers criticism about safety; it was a big deal for us, and the Pathfinder does brilliantly is crash tests. It's probably the best of the bunch. Also haven't experienced the twitchy steering he mentioned.

      @@jayclutch6533 still going strong. Have had zero issues with it. Thought we would have replaced it by now, but it's been so reliable and so nice to drive that it'll probably stay until it dies now.

    I don't understand why people still say it's less rugged and the SUV is gone...really..please tell me when was the last time someone went really off road (overland) not too many! I had an old Pathfinder...good SUV but when did I go drive onto unpaved roads..not many at all. The old Path was boxy with very bad gas mileage, felt every bump when driving and with a tacky interior...but looked really rugged...please...grow up! Both the new Path and boy I didn't look back. Platinum with DVDs, plush interior, heated steering wheel with cold/hot seating fans, and on and on and on with luxury features that a DAD wants for his family. If people still want the rugged look and very bad gas mileage-be my guest. I'll just drive by your old clunker and just smile inside my new Path. Nissan didn't build the new Path for the single or married with no kids people..they made it for the DAD that cares for his family.

    This dude always complains about how long it takes for the rear door to open.
    Just push the damn button before you get to the vehicle and it will be open by the time you get there. Are you not able to plan more than 1 second ahead?

    @modmatt3462 10 лет назад +3

    Thanks for a very comprehensive, well done review. I think you are on target with most of your comments and it's the only CVT based vehicle that I would consider - my wife would love the acceleration, driver seat comfort and rear cargo room with 3rd row folded. Hope Nissan actually listens to you on tuning the steering better, but I'll pass on all the extra technology you recommend on adding - built-in blind spot mirrors (as Ford has on the Escapes+) work really well for me with out fear of future potential sensor and other electronic issues plus initial cost as an example.

    It looks good but i've had a cvt in a murano before and it was a pice of crap. i actually sold it after one year because it was so erritating. i shouldn't even be looking into anoth piece of cap like this.I think i will just get a subaru.
