One of the most appreciated midsize SUV on the market, the Nissan Pathfinder offered plenty of power, with both off-road capability and luxury.
While the SUV had a rugged, tough exterior look, the interior was extremely comfortable and classy, offering its occupants plenty of comfort and refinement.
While the old 3.3-liter unit offered enough power to move the Pathfinder, the refreshed model was equipped with a 3.5-liter V6 engine that produced no less than 250 hp and 240 pound-feet of torque.
The Pathfinder had a rear-wheel-drive system or a part-time four-wheel drive. The LE trim level was fitted with an automatic All-Mode four-wheel-drive system.
Three trim levels were available with the 2001 model, the XR, SE and the top-of-the-range, LE.
The XR included standard power mirrors and windows, the SE added the choice of an automatic or a manual transmission and the top-of-the-line LE included a premium Bose sound system, fake wood accents and foglights.
All trim levels included 16-inch wheels and ABS as standard features, while other options included side airbags, a mobile entertainment system and a navigation system, depending on the trim level.
One of the most powerful SUVs in the class, the Pathfinder had lots of goodies as standard.
The Pathfinder was built in Japan before Nissan shifted production to Tennessee.
