2025 Nissan Pathfinder Engine & Performance

Adventure feels effortless in the 2025 Nissan Pathfinder. A potent 3.5L six-cylinder engine powers this SUV, paired with a nine-speed automatic transmission. The standard two-wheel drive (2WD) system delivers smooth efficiency on daily drives, while available intelligent four-wheel drive (4WD) adds confidence when the road gets tricky. Selectable drive modes, including rain, sand, dirt, or gravel, let you fine-tune vehicle performance to respond to your surroundings.

Drivers looking for maximum capability will appreciate the Rock Creek® trim. With its off-road suspension, added horsepower, and standard 4WD, the Rock Creek is designed for rugged terrain. This trim also brings along two unique settings — tow mode with downhill speed control and trailer sway assistance — making it just as ready for hauling as it is for trailblazing.
