    About the Nissan Pathfinder

    Last updated Jun 07, 2024

    The Nissan Pathfinder is back, and the latest generation offers considerably more technology and a much fresher look inside and out than before.

    The range opens with a front-wheel drive ST, slotting below the all-wheel drive ST-L, the front- or all-wheel drive Ti, and the flagship, all-wheel drive Ti-L.

    The Pathfinder’s available four-wheel drive system features direct coupling and a range of terrain modes, comprising Snow, Sand, Mud/Rut plus a dedicated Tow mode. The latter features an onboard trailer stability program.

    While Nissan Australia claims the new Pathfinder offers “go-anywhere capability” and is keen to call this version more “rugged” than its chief competitors, it’s not some body-on-frame 4×4 with low-range like the third-generation model sold between 2005 and 2012 (or, for that matter, a Toyota Prado).

    The only powertrain is a 3.5-litre V6, now mated with a nine-speed torque-converter automatic transmission instead of a CVT.

    A superb modern design with smart lines that both give the new Pathfinder a stylish edge but also make what is a rather large SUV look well proportioned and agile.

    Nissan's design team has utilised the same new family design elements as seen on the X-Trail and Qashqai.

    How it Drives

    Our expert take on Nissan Pathfinder drivability?

    The 2023 Nissan Pathfinder is powered by a naturally-aspirated 3.5-litre V6 engine producing 202kW of power at 6400rpm and 340Nm of torque at 4800rpm, identical outputs to its predecessor. The old CVT has been scrapped in favour of a nine-speed torque-converter automatic transmission. It’s available with both front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive.

    Nissan Pathfinder Safety Rating

    The New Nissan Pathfinder has yet to be tested by ANCAP.

    • Reverse autonomous emergency braking
    • Blind-spot assist

    Nissan Pathfinder Warranty

    What is the warranty period and kilometre limit for the Nissan Pathfinder?

    Nissan backs its vehicles with a five-year unlimited kilometre warranty and five-years roadside assist.

    Service intervals are 12 months or 15,000 kilometres – whichever comes first.

    Nissan Pathfinder Infotainment

    What infotainment do you get within the range?

    The base model Pathfinder ST still packs a pretty decent infotainment system with a a 9.0-inch touchscreen, 10.8-inch head-up display and 7.0-inch TFT instrument cluster display. There is support for wireless Apple CarPlay but Android users will still need to plug in. The ST's sound system makes do with six-speakers.

    Inside, occupants will find a generous 2 x USB-A, 2 x USB-C and 2 x 12V outlets.

    Step up to the Pathfinder STL and you will get the much needed surround-view camera with moving-object sensors. We feel this should be standard on the base model as well.

    Further up the range, the Pathfinder Ti adds wireless phone charging (handy when you have wireless CarPlay), a much better 13-speaker BOSE audio system and third-row USB-A port

    The top spec Ti-L gains a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster.
