Sure, the 2018 Pathfinder has four well-equipped trims to choose from, but there's every chance the base trim S will already tick your wish-list boxes. Standard passenger comfort takes center stage—tri-zone automatic temperature control, six USB ports, and Bluetooth® wireless technology ensure your crew is cool and connected. Driver assistance gets a boost too, particularly if you're running errands downtown as a rearview camera and automatic emergency braking are both standard features.
Take your Pathfinder out of town and it shows a whole new side to its character. This SUV can handle back roads, forest trails, and open shrubland. All 2018 Pathfinder trims offer an Intelligent 4x4 system that allows the car to respond to the road (or lack thereof) ahead. Drive in 2WD for maximum efficiency, switch up to Auto for traction capability when you need it, and then use the Locking AWD for tougher challenges like sand or mud.
Driving a seven-seat SUV means space for family and friends. The 2018 Pathfinder takes care of easy-in, easy-out seating arrangements, thanks to its EZ FLEX™ seating system with LATCH AND GLIDE™ technology. Opening on the right side, the 2018 Pathfinder has one simple latch that moves the second-row seat forwards at a tilt for maximum access space. Once seated, everyone has room to stretch out with 41.7 and 30.7 inches of legroom in the second and third row respectively.
Looking to treat yourself to some extra comforts? Or perhaps you've got your family in mind and want some extra entertainment options. Four themed packages are available for the 2018 Pathfinder, including an all-weather package for those cold mornings—this adds a heated steering wheel and heated front seats. The Platinum trim unlocks access to the Mobile Entertainment System Package. It has two eight-inch seatback screens that can play movies and TV favorites via DVD playback, HDMI, or a USB port.
If your friends are active travelers, the seven-seat 2018 Pathfinder is all set for adventurous trips. Even with a full set of passengers, you'll get 16.0 cu-ft of cargo space behind the third row. When properly equipped, the Pathfinder, with its 3.5L V6 engine, can also tow up to an estimated 6,000 pounds, which is enough for surfboards, tents, and more.
