2026 Nissan Pathfinder

The 2026 Pathfinder lineup includes SV, Rock Creek, SL, and Platinum trims, each with its own distinct personality. SV provides a strong foundation with a 12.3-in NissanConnect® infotainment display, wireless Apple CarPlay®, wireless Android Auto™, ProPILOT Assist, heated front seats, a power liftgate, and more. Rock Creek is engineered for drivers who venture beyond the pavement. Standard Intelligent 4x4, an off-road-tuned suspension, all-terrain tires, unique exterior styling, a tubular roof rack, and an upgraded V6 make it trail-ready. SL adds a more upscale atmosphere with TailorFit® seating, a fully digital 12.3-in instrument cluster, heated steering wheel, wireless charging, and additional convenience features. At the top of the range, Platinum introduces semi-aniline leather-appointed seating with quilted inserts, climate-controlled front seats, heated second-row outboard seats, a panoramic moonroof, Bose® premium audio with 13 speakers, Head-Up Display, and premium interior finishes that elevate every drive.

Most Pathfinder models are powered by a 3.5L Direct Injection Gasoline V6 producing 284 hp and 259 lbs.-ft. of torque, paired with a responsive 9-speed automatic transmission. Rock Creek receives a more powerful version of the same V6, generating 295 hp and 270 lbs.-ft. of torque. Properly equipped, the Pathfinder can tow up to 6,000 lbs., making it well suited for boats, campers, and utility trailers.

The Pathfinder has a refined chassis that balances everyday comfort with confident handling. Available Intelligent 4x4 features multiple Drive and Terrain Modes for changing road conditions, while Hill Descent Control and Trailer Sway Control add confidence on challenging terrain and while towing. Rock Creek further enhances capability with dedicated suspension tuning and rugged all-terrain hardware for off-road exploration.

Inside, the Pathfinder offers seating for up to 8 passengers or available second-row captain's chairs for a 7-passenger configuration. The EZ FLEX® Seating System simplifies third-row access. Cargo space expands to a generous 80.5 cu. ft. with the rear seats folded, while flexible seating configurations make it easy to accommodate luggage, sports equipment, or everyday cargo. Premium trims introduce semi-aniline leather upholstery, heated and ventilated front seats, heated second-row seating, and a panoramic moonroof.

Every 2026 Pathfinder comes equipped with Nissan Safety Shield® 360, including Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection, Blind Spot Warning, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, Rear Automatic Braking, Lane Departure Warning, and High Beam Assist. ProPILOT Assist, Intelligent Lane Intervention, Traffic Sign Recognition, HD Enhanced Intelligent Around View® Monitor, and Intelligent Driver Alertness are available as well, providing additional safety for daily commuting and family road trips.
