Vehicle Overview

Redesigned for 2005, the Nissan Pathfinder sport utility vehicle features a 4.0-liter V-6 and three rows of seats. Built with body-on-frame construction, the Pathfinder has a fully independent double-wishbone suspension. The four-wheel-drive SE Off-Road model features Hill Descent Control and Hill Start Assist.

Changes are minor for 2006. SE models can be equipped with leather seats, and the SE Comfort Package gains a six-CD changer. Majestic Blue is a new exterior color.
