Though the raves about the 2012 Pathfinder have not yet ceased, the latest version of this popular SUV by the car manufacturer already became available in dealerships across the continent in the fall. The 2013 Pathfinder for sale is sleeker, more stylishly powerful and has better fuel economy than its predecessor.
This 7-seater SUV experienced an exterior and interior overhaul which generated a lot of attention from SUV enthusiasts who are always on the lookout for affordable yet luxurious vehicles. Here is a list of the impressive features that you will get should you decide to buy the latest version of the Pathfinder series.
Better fuel economy - This is a very important trend among cars these days considering the unpredictable gas market prices. The all-new engine and CVT transmission work together for better fuel economy with a 20 mpg city and 26 mpg highway rating. In a statement issued prior to the availability of the 2013 Pathfinder, it should deliver a 25% boost in fuel economy over the 2012 version - meaning, you can travel more for your gas budget.
Lighter and with a new aerodynamic design - The new Pathfinder has made a switch from the body-on-frame to uni-body construction so it's 500 lbs lighter than the 2012 Pathfinder and will display better movement on the road.
More space - Reviews reveal that the interior design has been improved to provide more shoulder room and 2 inches of extra leg room in the back - making the drive/ride even more comfortable for the driver and all the passengers.
"Other" creature comforts - These are adjustable features that not only make the ride more physically comfortable for the passengers, but they also serve special purposes to increase the function of the vehicle. The lower ride height makes getting in and out of the vehicle so much easier. The seating system on the other hand, will allow you to operate the second row tip-up seat even if there's a child seat attached. Worth noting as well is that cargo space can be expanded to up to 79.8 cu-ft by dropping down all the back seats - it can be used for cargo or sleeping space.
Around view monitor - This offers four directional cameras which make maneuvering so much easier and smoother. It provides a bird's eye view of the SUV which allows drivers to spot obstructions around the vehicle while in Drive mode.
Easy Fill Tire system - This honks the horn once the right tire pressure has already been achieved.
There are still several other reasons to love the 2013 Pathfinder. One thing's definite, however; the company has made sure that the newest version is a complete upgrade of the 2012 Pathfinder that many were already very satisfied with. The 2013 Pathfinder is a swell ride that guarantees a wise investment.
