Shopping for a family-friendly vehicle can be a challenge, especially when you need more space for a bigger crew. One option that could be a good fit for your clan is the 2020 Nissan Pathfinder, which has three rows of seating, a powerful engine, and high-end features. Learn more about this powerful crossover SUV and some of the reasons it’s worth considering.
1. Impressive Powertrain and Performance
The 2020 Nissan Pathfinder comes in four trim levels, each of which comes with the same powertrain. It’s a 3.5-liter V-6 engine that produces 259 pound-feet of torque and 284 horsepower, and it’s paired to a continuously variable transmission. The engine is responsive and peppy, speeding up quickly when you hit the gas pedal. This SUV also boasts impressive handling and performance, with a firm suspension that reduces body roll.
All models come standard with front-wheel drive, although all-wheel drive is available as an upgrade. If you do upgrade your Pathfinder to include Nissan’s all-wheel-drive system, it will also include hill descent control and a locking function that further enhances the traction.
2. Accessible Cabin and Seating
When you’re transporting a large crew, you want to make sure that all rows of seating have enough space and are easy to access. A comfortable cabin is also a must-have, especially for long road trips. The 2020 Pathfinder doesn’t disappoint in either area, boasting a roomy cabin with seats that are accessible in both the second and third rows. It’s actually one of the top-rated SUVs with a third row because of its accessibility.
Standard interior features include tri-zone climate control, an 8-inch touch screen with a six-speaker sound system, dual USB ports in the front and rear, and Bluetooth connectivity. Upgraded options for the cabin include leather upholstery, heated and ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, a premium Bose sound system, navigation, and a power-adjustable steering wheel. A rear-seat entertainment system is also available as an option on the top Platinum trim.
3. Capable and Durable
If you tow heavy loads with your vehicle, the Pathfinder is a good choice. It can tow up to 6,000 pounds when properly equipped, which puts it at the top of the segment for towing capacity. This SUV is also rugged and durable, tackling different types of terrain when equipped with the all-wheel-drive system.
4. Standard Safety Equipment
Every 2020 Nissan Pathfinder comes equipped with advanced driver aids that make it a safer choice for families. These features include rear parking sensors, a rearview camera, and forward collision warning with automatic emergency braking. Additionally, every model includes advanced air bags throughout all three rows of seating, the LATCH system for child car seats, and a tire pressure monitoring system. Upgraded safety options include blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert and adaptive cruise control.
