It’s perfectly comfortable but more suited to being scrubbed free of mud – although more likely spilled Ribena and engrained Jelly Babies – than cradling execs en-route to shareholder meetings. Should you find yourself muddy side up – difficult considering it’s got anti-lock brakes with electronic brake force distribution and brake assist, as well as traction and stability controls as standard – there are six airbags including front, side and curtain items to cushion your fall.Ĭlick ‘Next’ below to read more of our Nissan Pathfinder first drive And inside? A high/low ratio transfer box with a differential lock means you can jostle between motorway and green-lane gears with a mere button touch – there’s no funny-looking second gear stick to master – and with a super-rigid separate chassis, you can punt it through some surprisingly demanding routes. As long as you don’t buy the auto – the gearchange isn’t as snappy as it should be for hardcore mud-plugging. Adventura brings a reversing camera and display, which flickers into life as soon as you select reverse. And you’re right – if you don’t tick the Adventura spec level you’ll be in a right pickle. You’d be forgiven for thinking that parking might be an issue. Legroom on the split rear bench is ample enough, although it’s never going to beat the Land Rover Discovery’s space. The rearmost pair of chairs in the seven-seater aren’t really suitable for adults, but perfectly acceptable for children. The Pathfinder isn’t half bad at hauling people, either. The generous headroom also means you can wheel a pushbike more or less straight in.
When you feng shui the five fully collapsible seats flat into the floor, there’s 2091 litres of space – that’s 1045 big bottles of Coke, should you run a cash-and-carry stall.
The gargantuan 4740mm length and portly 1850mm width mean the Pathfinder is marvellous for stowage. Steering requires more muscle effort than most and the gearshift is a little sloppy.īut those who’d buy into the exterior styling – effectively a Navara with a steel canopy above the pick-up bed, and well suited to gun racks, hunting lights and UN decals – would want it to be a bit of a brute.Ĭlick ‘Next’ below to read more of our Nissan Pathfinder first drive What about practicality? Body roll is borderline ridiculous, it’s not great at softening out the road’s bumps, and with a back end that extends into neighbouring counties, the Pathfinder can feel clumsy on narrow B-roads. As you might imagine, handling is not high up the Pathfinder’s priorities.
