McKinnon Nissan Reviews 2017 Nissan Pathfinder, 12 Best Family Cars of 2017

Mar 28, 2017

For the fourth year in a row, the Pathfinder has earned a spot on Kelley Blue Book’s 12 Best Family Cars list. This award program recognizes vehicles for the best combination of reputation, value, technology, safety and more. You can schedule a test drive at McKinnon Nissan dealer Montgomery AL.

Child Seats
While this isn’t the only criteria, Kelley Blue Book definitely recognized the Pathfinder for its friendliness toward car safety seats. The Pathfinder EZ Flex Seating system has a Latch and Glide component that makes life with carseats much easier. The second row tilts and glides for easy third row access. This allows you to easily reach the backseat to install a carseat. Even more importantly, when the second row is tilted, you don’t have to remove any carseat already installed there. Quick, convenient transitions are a major asset for families. Of course, the Pathfinder also comes with plenty of LATCH anchors and tethers for safer installation every time.

Redesign
The judges also favored the Pathfinder for its recent improvements. The new cabin is well turned out. It’s also invitingly roomy with amenities that best meet the needs of today’s families. They liked the new Direct Injection Gasoline V6 engine. It kicks out 284 horsepower, but it earns a healthy 26 mpg highway. This fuel economy makes it easier on the family budget. Engineers changed out some 56 percent of the engine’s related parts as they went about creating a more efficient, faster powertrain. When properly equipped, the Pathfinder leads its class by towing up to 6,000 pounds.
