Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2008 | 4dr SUV 266-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range |
The third row seating is only good for small children. see full Nissan Pathfinder review |
2006 | 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range |
Rear seat is cramped. I would gladly give up the third row seat, for more room for the rear (2nd row) seats. see full Nissan Pathfinder review |
2006 | 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic RWD |
Rear seating is small for long hauls, and seats WAY too hard see full Nissan Pathfinder review |

seats in rear are tight, they do not slide or recline where as Honda CRV rear seats are much more flexible for kids and families. My crv is 2007 and the rear seats recline and the entire bench can slide front and back to create instant leg room see full Mazda CX-7 review |
