COMFORT
As a 3-row SUV, the Pathfinder lets you bring all your family members and friends along on the journey. It seats up to eight, and there’s plenty of thought put into how each rider can settle in for the long haul.
A Relaxing Cabin
In wintry chills and summer heat, the Nissan Pathfinder keeps you and your crew feeling just right. The standard tri-zone automatic temperature control system lets you, your copilot, and second-row passengers set their individual preferred climate so they can relax. The rear passenger vents help back-row occupants get comfy more quickly.
Everyone can enjoy cleaner air with the standard in-cabin microfilter—it makes a big difference during those extended drives on the highway. You can even set the mood with the available interior accent lighting to create a calming aura or get everyone ready to party.
Plenty of Space
The key to each passenger enjoying their time in the Pathfinder is having plenty of personal space. The cabin features 148.5 cubic feet of passenger volume, giving everyone room to stretch out and get comfortable.
