The 2024 Pathfinder is offered in FWD and AWD configurations and comes in a single powertrain spec: a 3.5-liter naturally aspirated V-6 with a nine-speed automatic transmission The Pathfinder is Nissan’s midsize three-row SUV that seats up to eight passengers. It’s the second-largest SUV in Nissan’s lineup, after the Armada. It’s the SUV to get if you need seating for more than five but don’t want the enormous and thirsty Armada. The versatile Pathfinder can accommodate a large family with all three rows up, or lots of cargo if you fold one or both rows down. If you need to tow, its 6,000-pound max capacity is high for the segment. The Pathfinder was redesigned for the 2022 model year and carries over unchanged for 2024.
