Nissan keeps Pathfinder in the game with a healthy shot of power
Handling
The Nissan Pathfinder has very good on-road manners for a mid-size, off-road capable. The steering has a solid feel and is quick and precise for a truck of this size. Stability in corners and a lack of the usual wallowing that plagues other SUVs was a welcome surprise. The brakes have good pedal feel and are easy to modulate. Nissan put discs at all four corners, and it’s an antilock system with electronic force distribution. The ride is comfortable without being springy, unlike many vehicles designed for off-road use.
