[@chrisgraydon]

I have a 2012 Nissan Sentra S with over 225,000 miles on it. Never had an issue with the original CVT. I changed the fluid every 60,000 miles as required in the owner’s manual. Nissan is capable to be reliable as Toyota and Honda. You haters should learn how to read a manual and drive a car properly and you won’t have any problems long term.

[@carsunlocked]

thats a fair statement. The cvt certainly gets tossed around on the internet

[@hmong1013]

just dont bet the crap out of the cvt and itll last. my 2014 rogue has 187k miles.

[@tommaj5657]

Applying your anecdotal experience to a car manufacturer with a reported history of CVT issues isn’t logically sound. I’m glad your Nissan w/ CVT worked out for you, but that’s not always the case. I could provide you with my anecdotes of how my wife’s 2015 rouge AWD needed a new transmission just before the warranty expired (phew!) or how I had an Altima that also had its CVT replaced before getting out of warranty. But these anecdotes don’t acknowledge that there is a larger systemic problem with the Nissan CVTs crapping out.

[@bemassey2004]

No question about it!!! Pathfinder. I reviewed both, drove both, and hands down, well, the Pathfinder. I loved it so much I bought a Platinum 2 days ago from Plaza Nissan in Hamilton, White with the Black roof and the Chestnut interior, super nice color combination. People are telling me it looks SO much like a Land Rover, quite a compliment for this vehicle. For the money, a very impressive vehicle!! Really like the video Chris, clear and to the point, , ,

I ordered the 2022 Pathfinder Platinum 4WD. This vehicle is very good for off road type conditions but it is not all terrain. The suspension is a bit more ridged on the Pathfinder for better off road operation and better handling. The Highlander is more of an urban type van than an off road type vehicle. I like the Pathfinder controls and way of setting things up for preferences. The 2022 Pathfinder drives more like a truck which is something I like for its way of handling and being more rugged. I have a 2016 Murano Platinum AWD. After I bought it I put in high quality stiffer shocks and new springs to raise the Murano 2 inches. The handling and performance in snow storms and on unpaved rough country roads improved with this modification.

There are a lot of doubts, Eddie. Looks aren't everything, unless that's as deep as you can go. I could say the Pathfinder is a wannabe Explorer in looks but what difference does it make? I'll go with Highlander due to reliability, durability and value retention. Not to mention the most experienced company with electric motors and hybrid technology.

I love everything about the new Pathfinder, including its great looks. But I have a '16 with 136K miles and it's required many unexpected repairs since around 100K miles, including a new A/C unit ($1500), suspension problems ($1200), windshield washer malfunction ($800) and cooling system ($950). But in my area, Sacramento CA, I can get a 2023 Pathfinder SL for $42K while an equivalent Telluride or Palisade is $10K more if you can even find one. So I'm negotiating a fair trade-in along with a free extended warranty, but since my problems occur past 100K miles there remains some risk.

One with boxy and muscular look and one with elegant and prestige look. Both are reliable and user friendly cars, and this Toyota V6 engine (seems to be classified as 3.5L V6 as Toyota has not made any V6 engine recently) is a powerful and responsive engine and none to second from other competitors.

After checking out a number of SUVs, my choice was the 2022 Pathfinder. I am used to Nissan vehicles. I like the way they design the layout of the dash, controls, and how the computer part works. I also like the inside trims. Last week I ordered the 2022 Pathfinder Platinum white with the black roof lining. I added a number of optional features. I have been driving a 2016 Murano Platinum and traded it in. I did some driving of the Pathfinder. I had a demo Pathfinder for a full day. I was satisfied with the handling and overall performance. The acceleration was very acceptable for me. In checking the performance rating for the Pathfinder it is supposed to be able to do 0 to 60 mph in about 6.9 to 7.2 seconds. This is very acceptable for me. I added a 6 year 140K full service extended warranty. I did the same for the previous vehicles I bought. Nissan engines historically have been excellent. Their weak point was the CVT as like many other vehicles that use CVTs. Now with the automatic transmission I would think the reliability should be much better. I follow the maintenance schedule very closely, and I am very picky in how I look after my vehicles. I am not a hard driver with my vehicles. This is better for the life time reliability of the vehicle.

I drove the Highlander fully expecting buy it but was underwhelmed with the 4 cylinder turbo transmission combination. It can take some time for new engine/ transmission combinations to be optimized for the best performance usually through software updates to the programming. That was the case with the Pathfinder in 2022. Much smoother this year. Toyota will probably have it dialed in soon as well. The comfort of the Pathfinder in every seat position was better. Added flexibility with the center console being removable was helpful and the charge ports in the 3rd row. They are both very good cars and would be happy with either car. The final deciding factor was availability and mark up. Nissan was offering 0% financing for 36 months and the dealer went below msrp and gave me more for my trade. Yes, Highlander resale will likely be higher but in this current market, the value is what you pay up front.

@@mooz8026 I can’t compare the Highlander to the new Pathfinder because I haven’t done any research on the Pathfinder. My choice was based mostly on styling, although the Highlander’s 29-mpg and large 12.3” screen were also appealing. It is pretty hard to find much fault with any 3-row SUV on the market these days, as is also true for most vehicles. The Highlander’s pricing may be higher …. I paid about $45,000 for a super-loaded Limited.

Like the comparison! But, I've sat in the third row of both and the Highlander's is significantly smaller, tighter and less comfortable than the Pathfinder's 3rd row. So, I can't agree with you in saying they're the same. I'd definitely pick the Pathfinder over the Highlander - not only for the 3rd row, but also because of its better look, more truckish feel, nice interior, better AWD system and there are much less of them on the road as opposed to the Highlander.

Highlander without a doubt when it comes to Longevity, Reliability & Durability..! I just bought a 2021 Highlander XLE Hybrid AWD & I used to drive a 2016 Highlander XLE before… However I must admit the 2022 Pathfinder looks very cool with it’s all-new Design & it’s new engine ( without CVT) - looks wise I think Pathfinder wins the battle ..!

2022 Nissan Pathfinder selling already like hot cakes.. 👍👍👍👍👍

[@carsunlocked]

yes they are.

[@TinoMiller]

It would definitely be the Pathfinder ... Nissan products are on par right now !! I hope they do the same thing for their Infiniti brand that needs a whole lineup refresh .. Furthermore this video was clear and uniquely detailed .. I appreciate it and the outro song was a slice of heaven that fits perfectly with the video .. Thank you for another amazing video ! 👍👍

@@carsunlocked How was the AC in both vehicles..?? Did the air get cold / crisp in the Pathfinder..??

[@HiPlains1]

This is a close one. But have to give it to the toyota here. Interior definitely better on the Nissan. But the motor/transmission definitely better on the Toyota and that is more important to me. Nissan's 3.5 is getting a little long in the tooth at this point. I think they should have dropped their 3.0 turbo to gain more low end torque and HP. The ZF 9 speed is nice but not their best. Its the second generation of that unit but nothing like their ZF 8 speed which is probably the best auto on the planet. Glad the CVT is out but in all honesty, the acceleration might have been better using the CVT. For this kind of money one can buy a Explorer which looks amazing on the last design change. More importantly, Ford offers their 3.5 turbo that offers up to 400 lbs of torque and acceleration will blow both these SUV's off the road. And most importantly, Ford put the primary drive to the rear wheels. I like to see that with more oems. Too many FWD unibodies. They go that route because its cheaper. But its not better.

[@carsunlocked]

thanks for your info HiPlains1

Explorer?you better off getting a telluride,palisades,gv70,mdx are Kia carnival!

[@criticaltinker]

i love the tech of the Pathfinder but the better accelaration is key to me and better gas milleage. I also like the area at the back where you can hide stuff. I'm a photographer my photo gears are expensive. I used to own a pathfinder and there's no way for me to hide my cameras.

That set up in the Nissan is gonna be reliable, that v6 + 9 speed auto

[@MurangShaBu_MahalNaBiGas]

@@Pimp_dont_simp that's for the info, how about the transmission?

[@TwoPair72]

I have an ‘18 Pathfinder. 73,000 and the only thing that went wrong is the passenger seat track and the OE battery crapped out. Got for the legroom. Highlander is a bit short and the dash sits low on the passenger side. Luckily is was still under warranty. First thing, change out the battery. The OE’s suck.

[@dontelljackson9364]

Reliable means nothing if the owner doesn’t do maintenance. A Toyota is a flaming turd if neglected. Don’t be fooled.

[@9965621092kjm]

This new pathfinder hands down better than the Highlander overall better styling features and driving handling highlander is very outdated mom looking but this new pathfinder looks mean and aggressive and luxurious hands down Nissan you can really tell they are changing things around I would say take a second look at Nissan they are doing great things in the near future

[@carsunlocked]

I am excited for the feature Jose thanks for commenting

[@xlthumper]

Hmmmm. Good video with lots of Information, but I will keep my fully paid of 2012 highlander sport. All I would change in mine is put the 8 speed transmission. Other than that I find mine still has more seating room and functionality.

PATHFINDER hands down! Everything about the Pathfinder is superior. Technology, power, towing, aesthetics, sound system, interior space, safety and creature comforts are far better. Highland doesn’t have integrated garage door controls like Pathfinder. Pathfinder has rear heated seats, Highlander doesn’t. The Pathfinder’s heads up driver display is NEXT LEVEL!

[@jasswear8911]

Pathfinder for me. I thought the pathfinder drove better than the Highlander the Engine felt stronger and sportier. I like the Pathfinder interior much better the stereo sounded a lot better also in the Nissan. I think the exterior look is a toss up. I do prefer the Toyota resale a lot more though(Toyota lover’s pay top $$$ for used Toyotas). If I get the Nissan I’m gonna miss that resale of my old Toyotas.

[@carsunlocked]

certainly the resale value of a highlander might be better but only time with tell

[@southerntommygun1353]

the difference you can notice few years later on autotrader resale value will explain all the differences . i bought rav4 hybrid in may 2021 in october changed my mind to hybrid highlander due to 7 seats otherwise loved the rav4 hybrid xle so i went back to dealership i was amazed when they offer me same price buying back what i have bought for 39000 cdn after even driving 20k on it now tell me isn't this the difference i never bought toyota in my life before 45 today but from now on only toyota highbrids

hey thanks for commenting the toyota hybrids have come a long way they are definitely a leader in this technology

Pathfinder is nicer but the Highlander will have better resale and trade in value simply because it’s a Toyota. Nissan is doing a good job at rebranding themselves after the CVT failures almost killed them. The new Z is around the corner as it the new Frontier. We just bought a 2021 Armada to replace our 2018 Armada and we really like it. I won’t buy a new Toyota again after what they did to the Supra!
