The Pathfinder is a good-looking and serious family-mover. With that eighth seat, you could argue it’s really a mini-van masquerading as an SUV. This redesign sees a fuller, squared-off shape but the edges are sleek enough to deter any images of ‘bricky-ness’.
The large LED lights are nicely tapered and there’s a generous amount of black plastic moulding along the bottom of the car, which looks good on our model’s ‘Deep Ocean Blue Pearl’ paintwork, but it could be too much of a contrast on a lighter colour.
The interior is a far cry away from the dated look of previous models. The boxy shaping of the dashboard is proportional and looks solid. All of the sleek controls and dials are well-placed for easy-to-reach access.
There's a sense of refinement, too, with the softly padded touchpoints and shiny black accents found throughout the car.
