1995 Nissan Pathfinder Review

All the right stuff for dirty driving.
Interior
A redesigned Pathfinder interior was introduced in 1994. Its elegantly curved dashboard helps make the passenger compartment feel familiar if you're making the transition from sedans. You'll find controls where you would expect them to be, with a standard array of instruments and seating that?s thoroughly carlike.

However, you might not feel as comfortable with the Pathfinder?s passive safety features. If you could look inside the doors, you?d find door beams to help protect you from side-impact intrusion, but airbags are nowhere to be found. The Pathfinder lags some of its competitors in this respect.

Safety issues aside, first-time drivers and passengers will find that the Pathfinder cabin has a couple of sport/utility quirks that have no parallel in passenger cars. Both are minor, both have to do with extensions and both stem from the vehicle?s pickup truck origins.

First, we had to simultaneously stretch and duck when entering or existing our Pathfinder, a minor gymnastic effort that?s due to lots of ground clearance and an extremely low roofline.

Second, the seats were inadequately padded because of the need to mount them close to the door in order to provide sufficient headroom under the low roof.

You may also find backseat legroom a trifle snug for adults, particularly if you compare the Pathfinder with Ford?s roomy Explorer, the compact sport/utility pace-setter when it comes to roominess.

On the other hand, the Pathfinder?s interior is exceptionally attractive. The materials in or SE were of high quality, chosen for their appearance as well as their durability, and we couldn?t find a misaligned seam or a loose fitting anywhere. Next Page
