Adding all-wheel drive to the Pathfinder is a $1690 option, while bumping up to the Pathfinder SV model will cost $33,580. Above that sits the Pathfinder SL which goes for $36,600, while the top-trim Platinum model with two-wheel drive sells for $42,770.

All Pathfinder models get that same 3.5-liter V6, paired to a CVT that features Nissan’s D-step logic control which makes the CVT mimic a traditional automatic transmission.

    I just hate where they went with the styling on this thing. It used to look good, tough, rugged, capable and for the most part it was. Now it just looks sad, like a once majestic creature that was captured and put in a zoo. All the power, none of the style. Sad.
