Overview |
For the first time ever, Pathfinder is available with a 5.6-iter V-8 engine, offering an additional 44 horsepower and 100 lb-ft. of torque, over the standard 4.0-liter V-6, for greater towing capacity. Other major enhancements for 2008 include a restyled exterior and interior, and a range of available technology features such as a rear view monitor, an intelligent key, and a Bluetooth hands-free phone system. |
Power and Performance |
Pathfinder's new Endurance 5.6-liter engine, which it shares with Nissan's full-sized Titan pickup and Armada SUV, is rated at 310 horsepower and 388 lb-ft. of torque -- making it the most powerful V-8 in its class and providing the towing capacity and rugged performance of a full-size SUV in a mid-size SUV package. |
Body and Styling |
The 2008 Pathfinder's exterior features new front and rear fascias that maintain the rugged yet sophisticated look that has always distinguished Pathfinder, a restyled grille and hood (with changes to accommodate the V-8 engine), new chrome appliqué for body side moldings (LE only), restyled 17-inch wheels (SE V-6 and LE V-6 models), new 18-inch wheels for V-8 models, a rear view camera (SE & LE only), and a new rear lift gate with power cinch feature.
Inside, Pathfinder receives a host of newly available amenities and technologies, including a new meter cluster appearance, new instrument panel-mounted 7-inch color monitor with rear view monitor (standard on all grades except S), an available Nissan navigation system with a 9.3-gigabyte Music Box hard drive for MP3 storage, new cup holder area design, and revised upper door trim.
