The 2020 Nissan Pathfinder comfortably accommodates seven. When the well-equipped SUV is free of passengers, it delivers a maximum of 79.5 cubic feet of cargo space. Just fold down the second and third rows.
The family-hauler doesn’t lack in driving thrills thanks to its V6 engine rated at 284 horsepower and 259 lb-ft of torque. When properly equipped, the Pathfinder easily facilitates road trip toys or project equipment with a towing capacity of 6,000 pounds. The available Bose Premium Audio System floods the Pathfinder’s cabin with music as it funnels high-quality sound through 13 speakers. The available Tri-Zone Entertainment System keeps your passengers in the second row entertained with movies, video games, or other content on their compatible devices. Plus, you won’t be distracted by their choices thanks to two wireless headsets.
