Nissan keeps Pathfinder in the game with a healthy shot of power
Interior Noise
While the days of spartan interiors of rubber and vinyl are gone, there’s one thing that SUV’s have a tough time avoiding: wind noise. There’s some of that audible in the Pathfinder off the mirrors and roof rack, but otherwise it’s quiet, with road and tire noise subdued. You can hear the engine under acceleration, but it’s not muscle-car loud, and just enough to make V-8 fans happy. Cruising in Drive, the engine and transmission noise is nicely muffled.
