The platinum edition that I tested had heated and cooled leather seats, navigation on a big 8-inch color display, Bose stereo, panoramic sunroof, and all the delightful features anyone could want. Inside, you can dress up the Pathfinder any way you like.

The net result of the CVT plus the ability to switch to 2WD is that the Pathfinder returns EPA-estimated fuel economy up to 20 MPG city and 27 MPG highway. But the Nissan V6 engine has enough power to drive the CVT to its best potential, and you'll enjoy the experience. That's significant because CVT drivelines are usually obvious, and not in a good way. The Pathfinder transmission is a continuously variable unit, but I didn't notice that until I studied the vehicle. You can also lock the Pathfinder in 4WD when you need to do some serious off-pavement traveling. You can put the Pathfinder into 2WD to run the front wheels only for better fuel economy, or dial up automatic 4WD to let the Pathfinder decide when to kick in the rear wheels. This is real 4WD that you control with a dial on the console. Of course, the Pathfinder comes with optional 4WD, but it's not the standard always-on system that most compact crossovers use. So whether it's a boat, quads, snowmobiles or a travel trailer, the Pathfinder has you covered. Nissan enables that towing strength with a Class III hitch and 7-pin RV-style trailer plug. That means excellent performance, but it also means that the Pathfinder offers a 6,000-pound towing capacity. This plant is good for 284 horsepower and 259 pound-feet of torque. The Pathfinder is powered by Nissan's long-proven 3.5-liter V6 engine. One of the most popular of the current crop of mid-size SUVs is the 7-passenger Nissan Pathfinder. The reasons are simple - people love the utility of the hatchback, the confidence of four-wheel-drive, and the raised driver's position that affords a great view of the road.

The mid-size SUV market is hotter than asphalt in July, and it's likely to remain hot through our cold winter months.
