Carry out a clear distinction between SUVs and crossovers is now very problematic. In such confusion, in many ways, Nissan is to blame and its Pathfinder model, which is produced with a load-bearing body, then with a frame structure. Such changes in the policy of the Japanese were carried out repeatedly, so it is difficult to agree with their slogan. And it says that the model is an off-road car of the last generation. And this is all despite the presence in the last update of a number of modern functions, not characteristic of its predecessors. On the other hand, most modern buyers completely do not care how to classify the car they liked.
Speaking about the design of the Nissan Pathfinder 2013, first of all it is necessary to note the new streamlined forms. As for the platform, it uses the same as the Infiniti JX35. Absolutely all the variants of the car's complete sets are equipped with 18-inch disks, which flaunt under huge arches. The novelty, in comparison with the predecessor, has increased in length and width, but has decreased in height. In favor of the fact that the car is most suited to the class of crossovers, says the decrease in clearance to a mark of 165 mm. The new Nissan Pathfinder 2013 weighs 1,882 kg, which is considerably less than numerous competitors. This indicator was achieved by the manufacturer due to the use of a lighter frame with a bearing body. In turn, this allowed not to save on the design of the salon.
In a word, the interior of the Nissan Pathfinder 2013 can be described as "refined". In the interior of the interior surfaces, soft, pleasant to the touch materials are predominantly used. The use of leather for the lining of the armrests creates a feeling of being in the cabin of a luxury sedan, but not an SUV. Do not regret the designers and information technology equipment for cars. In particular, there is a modern acoustic, multimedia, entertainment and navigation systems. Seats of the second row can be moved back, sliding on the guides, so that access to the rear seats is simple and fast. In case of such necessity, the last two rows are added, which allows to increase the amount of free space up to 2.25 cubic meters.
As for the power equipment of the Nissan Pathfinder 2013, then under its hood is a 3.5-liter "six" capable of developing 260 horsepower. The engine is paired with a stepless automatic. The unit requires 9 liters of fuel on the track and nearly 12 liters in urban mode. If the four-wheel drive is used, the flow rate increases slightly. On the road, the Nissan Pathfinder 2013 behaves very stably and confidently, which is ensured by a good grip of the wheels with the road surface. It should be noted and a significant improvement in steering of the car compared with the previous version. The most important thing that is provided while driving a driver is a sense of agility and ease.
In the domestic market, the model has not yet been implemented. As for the cost of the Nissan Pathfinder 2013, the price of its base configuration in America is 28270 dollars. At the same time for the maximum possible "stuffing" will have to fork out more than 44 thousand.
