The Nissan Pathfinder 2011 ranks 22 out of 23 Affordable Midsize SUVs. This ranking is based on our analysis of 43 published reviews and test drives of the Nissan Pathfinder, and our analysis of data reliability and security. The Nissan Pathfinder is trying to be both an off-road vehicle and a capable family SUV. Although most commentators say it is enough, others say it does not excel in any area.
The 25 years since its introduction have seen the Nissan Pathfinder morph from an SUV off-road hard something more practical for everyday life. Still, reviewers say the Pathfinder tries too hard to do both, and as a result does neither very well. Consumer Guide says, "For everyday driving ease and fuel economy, this truck-type SUV crossover trails rivals such as Murano own GMC Acadia and Nissan." While the Pathfinder is a credible option for off-road, commentators prefer Nissan Xterra itself when the asphalt ends.
When the Pathfinder can earn fans is the thin slice of the population that wants to head off road, but you need a roomy family SUV. The Pathfinder is tempting like a rugged truck family, but I know that most commentators agree that his second and third lines are tightened. Moreover, its fuel economy is at the bottom of the class, even among SUVs off-road.
