PERFORMANCE
Go Further. Use Less Fuel.
Best-in-class 26 MPG[*] Hwy Mileage
We boosted the fuel economy by more than 30%. [*] How? By dropping a bunch of weight from the frame, the drivetrain, and everywhere else. Even the climate control system weighs less now. Then we improved aerodynamics, and gave Pathfinder the Xtronic CVT®, our most advanced transmission ever. It all adds up to a Best in Class Fuel Economy of 26 mpg. [*]
PERFORMANCE
WE BUILT IT
TO HAUL.
Best-in-class 5,000 LBS TOWING CAPACITY [*]
The 3.5-liter V6 engine delivers seamless power with optimum fuel efficiency, so even heavy adventures are no match for the 2013 Pathfinder. The proof? It’s in the numbers: 260-hp, 240-lb-ft of torque, and 5,000 pound towing capacity—the most standard towing in the class [*]. So whether you’re headed to the marina, hauling all your gear, or roughing it for the weekend, just hook up your boat, trailer or camper and go! [*]
Class Exclusive TAKE YOUR PICK:
2WD, 4WD OR AUTO MODE
No other SUV [*] in this class gives you the choice of 2WD, 4WD, and Auto Modes. Turn the All-Mode 4x4i Dial, located just behind the gearshift, to lock into 4WD on rough terrain and in varying weather. Turn it again to switch into 2WD for better mileage. The intuitive Auto Mode senses slippery roads or rough terrain and automatically adjusts power to each wheel. When things smooth out, it switches back to 2WD.
XTRONIC CVT®
What kind of transmission do you put in the Next Gen SUV? The class-exclusive, next-generation Xtronic Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT), obviously. Pathfinder’s new CVT eliminates gears by using a precisely machined metal drive chain instead of traditional fixed metal gears, which transfers power from the engine to the wheels far more effectively and smoothly. So whatever you ask from the engine, the CVT provides it by shifting seamlessly to give you the perfect speed, all while improving fuel economy.

NOTHING BUT THE BEST
The Nissan EZ Flex™ Seating System [*] seats 7 passengers, and everybody travels in style. Pathfinder boasts Best in Class front headroom and legroom [*] and class-exclusive reclining 3rd-row seats [*] are standard. Three rows of rich leather-appointed seats, a wood-tone trim, and a Tri-Zone entertainment system [*] with three screens are all available options for the ultimate in sophisticated adventure.
Class Exclusive EZ Flex™ Seating System
The spacious 2nd-row moves forward and backward up to 5½ inches for excellent access to the back row, even with a child seat installed. [*] Speaking of the 3rd-row, it’s been upgraded and expanded for 2013. Pathfinder is the only SUV in its class[*] to offer reclining seats [*] back there, and they’re big enough to comfortably seat two full-sized adults.
Cargo Space
Fill it up with seven passengers, and the Pathfinder still has room for up to 16 cubic feet of cargo. Drop the 3rd-row and you’ve got more than 47 cubic feet, or drop both the 2nd- and 3rd rows and you’ve got a virtually flat space with 79.8 cubic feet of cargo for your seriously big loads. There’s also a large under-floor storage area that keeps valuables out of sight. It’s easily accessed whether the 3rd-row is folded or upright, giving added cargo room even when you have seven passengers along for the ride. [*]
TECHNOLOGY
BIRD’S-EYE VIEW
OF THE SITUATION.
Class Exclusive Around View® Monitor [*]
Using four cameras, the available class-exclusive Around View® Monitor (AVM) [*] creates a composite image of the 2013 Pathfinder from above and displays it on the touch-screen monitor. This helps visually confirm the vehicle’s position relative to the lines around parking spaces and adjacent objects, allowing the driver to maneuver into parking spots with more ease.
TECHNOLOGY
LOADED
WITH AMENITIES
Tri-Zone Entertainment
When the kids are happy, you are happy, and that’s where the available Tri-Zone Entertainment System [*] comes in. Up front, the driver and passenger can enjoy music. 2nd-row passengers can watch movies, play video games, plug in a laptop, all on dual 7-inch DVD monitors, listening on two wireless headsets. The entire system can be controlled through the touch-screen display on the dash.
-
Nissan Navigation System
The all-new 2013 Nissan Pathfinder is equipped with an available advanced Navigation System [*] that gives you all the tools you need—like turn-by-turn voice guidance, Bluetooth® Hands-free Phone System [*], and available SiriusXM Satellite Radio [*] —to make every trip a snap.
-
Advanced Drive-Assist™ Display
Keep your focus on what matters most—driving. Advanced Drive-Assist™ Display is a 4.2-inch color monitor sitting right in front of you in the gauge cluster. The customizable, easy-to-read screen displays front and rear power ratios, the trip computer, tire pressure, fuel economy, external temperature, and much more.
-
Nissan Intelligent Key®
With the available Nissan Intelligent Key®, you can unlock all four doors, open the power liftgate, and start the engine without taking the keys out of your pocket. It’s even smart enough to move the driver’s seat, steering wheel, and side-view mirrors to your pre-set positions.
-
Heated Steering Wheel
Old Man Winter never saw this one coming. Keep those mitts toasty even on the coldest days with an available class-exclusive heated steering wheel that warms up at the touch of a button.
-
Heated & Cooled Seats [*]
Leather-appointed seats are not a lot of fun on a hot day, and not much better on a cold one. Pathfinder’s seats [*] save you from stickiness by cooling down when it’s hot out, and warming up when it’s cold.
SAFETY
SERIOUS ABOUT SAFETY
With over 50 standard safety features, including Vehicle Dynamic Control [*], Traction Control, six standard airbags [*] and safety zone construction, Pathfinder is built to help keep you and your most precious cargo safe.
-
Tire Pressure Monitoring System
When your tire pressure is low, an icon on your dash notifies you. On certain Pathfinder trims, the Advanced Drive-Assist™ will tell you which specific tire is low. [*]
-
Easy-Fill Tire Alert
When filling your tires, Easy-Fill Tire Alert gives you a friendly beep of the horn when you’re at the right pressure. [*]
-
Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC)
Hit a slick spot in a corner and suddenly you may be going in a direction you did not intend to be going. In these situations, VDC monitors steering and braking. If needed, it responds by reducing engine output and/or applying brake pressure to specific wheels. [*]
-
Anti-lock Braking System (ABS)
In panic-braking situations, the ABS is able to pump the brakes faster than you possibly can, helping to prevent wheel lockup and allowing you to continue to steer while braking heavily.
-
Brake Assist/Electronic Brake force Distribution (EBD)
If you need to slam on the brakes, Brake Assist detects how hard you’re braking, and if it senses you are in an emergency, it helps to apply maximum braking force. The EBD system is designed to send extra force to the rear brakes when there’s extra weight in the back.
-
Traction Control System (TCS)
The standard TCS means you won’t be wasting power just spinning the tires. When it senses drive-wheel spin, it responds by reducing throttle or applying brake pressure to specific wheels.
