Compared to the previous model, the redesigned 2014 Pathfinder was less of an off-roader and more of a family oriented SUV.
For 2014, Nissan also presented their first SUV hybrid.

The budget SUV was offered with 4 trim levels, S, SV, SL and Platinum. All of the trim levels came with either 2WD or 4WD, however, it was not a permanent 4x4, users could switch between the two.

The engine mounted on the Pathfinder was the same regardless of the trim level, a 3.5-liter V6 powerplant developing 260hp. The engine was mated to CVT transmission.

As we would expect, the Pathfinder had a big towing capacity, as well as lots of load space, mostly with the 3rd row of seats folded. Yes, a 3rd row was included in the package, which meant that the Pathfinder could accommodate up to 7 people.

The tail gate could be opened in 3 different ways: using the button located near the steering wheel, using the button on the car’s key or by touching the pad underneath the chrome accent on the lid.

Both the 3rd and the 2nd row of seats were foldable, fairly flat. Under the floor board was some extra storage room, as the spare tire was placed underneath the SUV.

Seating in the 2nd row seats would have offered decent legroom, as well as headroom (taller people could use the help of the optional panoramic sunroof) and the seats were also reclinable.
