2016 Nissan Pathfinder

But first: trim and prices. With six distinct trims—and six affordable prices—the Pathfinder has something for everyone:

• The 2016 Nissan Pathfinder S starts at $29,830.
• The 2016 Nissan Pathfinder SV enters the market at $33,150.
• The 2016 Nissan Pathfinder SL is priced at $36,410.
• The 2016 Nissan Pathfinder SL Tech is available for $38,440.
• The 2016 Nissan Pathfinder SL Premium starts at $39,740.
• The 2016 Nissan Pathfinder Platinum is priced at $41,610.

Certainly, the Rogue and the Juke are powerful, but the Nissan Pathfinder turns engine power up a notch—or five.

• The Pathfinder is powered by a 3.5L V6 engine that generates 260 hp as well as 240 lb-ft of torque.
• However, the Pathfinder also boasts a truly astounding towing capacity: 5,000 pounds, meaning that you’re going to be able to rely on your Pathfinder to lug the heaviest loads.
• Yet the Pathfinder is also remarkably efficient: its Xtronic Continuously Variable Transmission and All-Mode 4×4-i intuitive 4WD system work in tandem to help it achieve 20 mpg in cities and 27 mpg on highways.

And here’s where things get especially good: while Nissan’s other 2016 SUVs feature seating for five, the Pathfinder offers seating for seven passengers, as well as 157.8 cubic feet of passenger volume. At the same time, it also gives you ample cargo space, too: with the 2^nd row upright and the 3^rd row flat, it provides as much as 47.8 cubic feet of space, but when both the 2^nd and the 3^rd rows are flat, it gives you 79.8 cubic feet. Moreover, the Pathfinder makes loading and unloading easy as can be by offering a power liftgate system.

Just as the 2016 Nissan Pathfinder offers a range of trims, low prices, massive power, even more massive towing capacity, and ample interior space, so does this exciting SUV also give you an assemblage of cutting-edge technologies to make the drive entertaining, informative, and comfortable.

• The Pathfinder features a Tri-Zone Entertainment System with dual-head restraint-mounted 7-inch monitors, remote control, and two wireless headphones, to keep the music pumping throughout the Pathfinder, and to give drivers and passengers alike control over track selection and volume.
• Moreover, the Pathfinder can be equipped with 13 speakers, including Bose Acoustic Waveguide technology, to ensure that your audio experience is absolutely second-to-none.
• SiriusXM radio and Bluetooth wireless technology put even more music options at your finger tips.
• With a set of USB connection ports, you’ll be able to keep your devices charged at all times.
• A Nissan Navigation System with an 8-inch touch-screen monitor gives you access to maps, to destination locations, and to much more travel-related information, and it’s also voice-activated, meaning that you can operate its functions without taking your hands off the steering wheel.
• And steering-wheel mounted controls make it possible to change the music’s volume, make track selections, and take advantage of a number of other services with ease.

Finally, the 2016 Nissan Pathfinder keeps you and your passengers safe by offering a collection of powerful safety devices:

• A Nissan Advanced Airbag System—which boasts dual-stage supplemental airbags, driver and front passenger-seat mounted airbags, and roof-mounted curtain-side impact supplemental airbags with rollover sensors, among others—provides protection in the event of a collision and even a rollover.
• Vehicle Dynamic Control with Traction Control System keeps your Pathfinder stable at high speeds.
• Rear Cross Traffic Alert informs you of the approach of vehicles behind you.
• A Blind Spot Warning alerts you to the presence of vehicles outside of your range of vision.
• Rear View Monitor aids in parallel parking.
• And more!
