Performance Features
Standard on the 2022 Nissan Pathfinder, the 3.5-L engine receives a 284-hp rating from the Society of Automotive Engineers. Direct Injection Gasoline plays a key role in the mechanics of this V-6 powertrain, which is rated at 259 lb-ft of torque. The 24 DOHC valves employ the CVTCS technology for precise lifting and closing. This six-cylinder engine utilizes a variable induction system for reliable combustion cycles. Covered in iridium, high-performance spark plugs are integrated into the Nissan Direct Ignition System. This three-row Nissan SUV runs on an automatic transmission that makes up to nine gear speeds. An electronic shifter and paddle shifters manage the shifting points in the redesigned gearbox, which has the Manual Mode. The transmission is synced with the Intelligent 4×4 drive system that delivers best-in-class handling. You can manually select seven different driving modes for this updated drivetrain. An ergonomic dial makes it easy to manage the Drive and Terrain Mode technology. Optional on the SL and standard on the Platinum, an enhanced cooling system is integrated into the transmission. Both Nissan SUVs are powerful enough to tow 6,000 pounds, according to SAE J2807 measurements. These large family cars ride on the Dual Flow Path shocks that respond to bumpy roads, rough terrain, and loading.
