You never tapped the button on the steering wheel to change the gauge cluster View. It would have taken the round tach and speedo gauges out and sent them to the side with a more robust View. It also has full map in gauge cluster when you're in navigation mode and tremendous amount of additional information that is valuable and logically oriented in the modified gauge view.

They could have used all the transmissions in the world to replace their Jatco CVT, but it had to be the same one used by the Jeep Renegade. They went from glass transmissions to plastic.

[@mxngosvision]

Its a newer gen zf 9 speed and also its a good transmission. The reason why the Jeep’s 9 speed fails is because of the crappy transmission software. Honda also has a similar issue with the Pilot and Ridgeline.

[@La-yt1wr]

The ZF 9 speed is way better of a transmission. And it isn’t just Stellantis, Jaguar/Land Rover uses the trans and Honda used to offer it. They have updated the transmission but I tell everyone to avoid driving a 4 cylinder car with that transmission, the ZF 9HP isn’t meant for performance but for fuel economy that’s why more automakers use the 8HP for more performance oriented variants.

It's a nice rig, inside and out. I think Nissan is heading in the right direction as a brand. It's good to see them revamp their lineup with better designs, smarter engineering and nicer interiors. Thank goodness they are NOT putting those annoying CTVs in everything. At 50k for the top trim level, you start to run up against some serious competition from Germany which many buyers will turn to instead simply for the badge. The 35-40k trim levels will likely be their best sellers, possibly luring some customer away from the aging Honda Pilot.

Using premium gas on my ‘18 gets you 26 mpg combined. Takes about two tank fills to allow the computer to adjust the timing. Why? Premium has more additives and a better chance the vapor will help clean the intake valve to cutdown on the carbon. The 3.5 is a gem of a motor.

I just had this exact model/color Pathfinder for a two week rental. I was very impressed by the quality of it although I wasn't as impressed as these guys were with the takeoff. I thought the acceleration was kind of sluggish and it lumbered down the road rather than taking off quickly. It's very reminiscent of my previous 2008 Mercedes ML350. That said, this is basically a luxury vehicle and I kept wondering what could Nissan possible offer in their Infiiniti line that was so much better than the Pathfinder. I currently own a BMW x3 and the only thing the Pathfinder couldn't match was the quickness and speed. Also, a slight downer was that, although it was only a 2022, there was a slight sign that the leather isn't going to be the most durable over the years as the driver's seat seemed to already be losing some of its suppleness. Overall, a great vehicle even if it is a bit pricey.

As a professional driver the first thing that I notice in the safety of this New Nissan Pathfinder is the the Break Lines been so close that actually rube each others and for an Off Road Vehicle this is a huge not for me, even if I was not to drive it off road. The Brakes are your Life and the Life of others and I could not drive one of this because I will always be thinking when they are going to pop and I will have not Brakes. Also this new Electronic Brake Distribution not sure how it will perform because this vehicle has the weight in the front and how the wear and tear of brakes pads will be when having different loadings at different times, only time will tell if is Safe or Not Second on my list is the Heat Control, 3 is the Big screen or monitor wherever is call because is a huge distraction when reversing actually blinds you. As a driver you must have a good depth perception and 4 point view contact that you must check almost every 3 to 4 seconds because the surroundings can change very fast to avoid accidents or vehicle damage, Cameras and all this features that manufactures are putting in vehicles are not safe but luxury and distraction, Your 4 Contact Points are your Left Mirror, Front Side,Rear Side Mirror and your Back up Mirror. Practice this 4 point Contacts All the Time you drive a vehicle and when driving always check the Points so you will know what is on your Left, on you Front, on your Right and what is behind you, Keep your distance and never Tail Gate not One and you will be driving very very Safe.

If you got a 2016 or newer Pathfinder/QX they were just fine. They switched over to the updated CVT8 which was so so so much better.

Another Great review guys... thanks to you I leased the Maxima Plat. 2018.... just switched it to a Rogue Plat 2021....I was thinking of the new Pathfinder... my wife owns a 2013 SV (soccer mom model)... but I'll keep it for 5 more years ;) not worth the upgrade.

I've had a traverse for 5 years and I was thinking about switching to the new pathfinder or the Armada I have a maxima and I love

No more cvt? I thought they said it’s fixed and everything is good.

They will never admit it. But them dumping the CVT was a huge admission that it was a failure. they won't change it for the entry level cars like Versa and Sentra because it would be too obvious that their in-house cvt was complete dogshit
