The Pathfinder is a versatile mid-size three-row SUV; even though it lacks some of the exceptional off-road skills you’d want to see in an SUV of its caliber, leasing the 2023 Nisan Pathfinder still guarantees an outstanding experience.
For 2023, Nissan’s mid-size family-friendly SUV gets a new Rock Creek model. The Pathfinder Rock Creek receives an enhanced suspension, mildly-refreshed exterior, standard all-wheel drive, and a version of the standard V6 that makes 11 extra horsepower. The Rock Creek’s interior also differs from the rest of the lineup courtesy of some unique details like orange stitching and Rock Creek badges on the seats and center console. Outside this new addition, the 2023 Pathfinder is a carry-over model.
Engine And PerformanceÂ
Sitting in the engine bay of every 2023 Pathfinder is a perky 3.5-liter naturally-aspirated V6 engine that partners with a nine-speed automatic transmission and front- or all-wheel drive. Traditionally, the engine cranks out 284 horses and 259 lb-ft of torque, but it is tuned to generate 295 horsepower on the newly-added Rock Creek model. The Nissan Pathfinder does the job of a comfort cruiser with little or no flaws. It delivers a smooth, quiet ride and can scale through mid-level off-road tasks. In terms of performance, the all-wheel drive Nissan Pathfinder can run from zero-to-60mph in a respectable 6.6 seconds, which puts it ahead of some of its key rivals. The three-row Nissan also has an impressive towing capacity of 6000 pounds.
Fuel Economy
Contrary to what you’d expect, the most fuel-efficient Pathfinder is the model with all-wheel drive. It gets an EPA rating of 21 mpg in the city and 27 on the highway. Settling for the front-wheel drive only reduces the city rating by 1 mpg. The new Pathfinder Rock Creek is rated 20 mpg city and 23 highway.
Interior
Like other Nissan models, the Pathfinder’s cabin is supremely quiet with the help of the automaker’s sound-deadening technology. The Pathfinder is practical and has a wealth of near-luxury materials. Standard features include a six-speaker audio system, tri-zone automatic temperature control, cloth seats, etc. However, shoppers looking to enjoy a luxurious ride can always add high-end optional features like semi-aniline leather upholstery, heated and ventilated front seats, a panoramic sunroof, a 13-speaker Bose premium sound system, head-up display, etc.
