2007 Nissan Pathfinder SE 4WD Automatic

Model Highlights

The 2007 Nissan Pathfinder is available with either rear-wheel drive or four-wheel drive, and it comes in a number of trims. Regardless of flavor, all Pathfinders utilize a 4.0L DOHC V6 engine that produces 266 horsepower and 288 ft-lbs of torque. This latest generation of Pathfinder, which debuted in 2005, is based on the same F-Alpha platform as the Titan SUV and Armada pickup truck. The additional stiffness jives well with the Pathfinder's squared-off styling. The Pathfinder's interior is exceptionally roomy and comfortable. First and foremost was the height of the seats. With a commanding seating position, the view down the road is as good as the much larger Chevy Suburban. The instruments sit under a deep hood, and are very legible. The center stack for the heater and radio is surrounded by a piece of plastic that does a good impression of brushed aluminum. The beefy shifter for the five-speed automatic falls readily to hand on the wide console. The entry level Pathfinder is the S trim, which includes a tow hitch, power mirrors, a third row of seating, a tire pressure monitor, air conditioning, a CD player, and power windows and locks with remote keyless entry. The SE trim adds a front tow hook, thicker tires, a roof rack with cross bars, fog lamps, running boards, a power driver's seat, and a fold-flat front passenger seat. The LE trim adds such desirable items as 17-inch aluminum wheels, a power sunroof, automatic headlamps, power heated leather front seats, dual-zone automatic temperature control, rear air conditioning, a Bose audio system with a six-disc CD changer, air bags all around, and a memory function for mirrors, pedals, and the driver's seats The SE Off Road trim is ideally suited to rock climbers. Aside from four-wheel drive with hill descent control and hill start assist, the model carries four-wheel brake-activated limited slip, off-road tires, skid plates, and larger shocks. All Pathfinders come with a plethora of electronic safety devices. The four-wheel disc brakes have ABS and electronic brakeforce distribution for safe and sure stops, and vehicle dynamic control helps avoid spins.
