Highlander is definitely a "top stream" in the domestic automobile market, because in the same level of model field, there are really few cars that can compete with Highlander, and the strength of Highlander is indeed outstanding, so it has formed a phenomenon that this car is now very out of the circle. As a Japanese car, the Highlander actually prefers to compare it with the Japanese car of the same level, and as a Japanese big three, Nissan and Honda seem to be less prominent under the attack of the Highlander. In fact, I think that the reason why Nissan and Honda do not have vehicles that can compete with highlanders is because their model system is not rich enough, and there are still shortcomings in the field of the big seven seats.
But at the beginning of this year, there is good news, that is, Nissan's pathfinder will appear this year. The Pathfinder is a brand new big seven-seater SUV model, and the car has now confirmed that it will be domestically produced in the future. However, after entering the domestic automobile market, because of emission restrictions, the power will be changed, but the overall configuration is still very generous. The whole series is equipped with four-wheel drive, 2.0T+9AT, the length of the car is more than 5 meters with seven seats, and the opponent of Highlander is coming.
The appearance is very domineering, and the American style is strong
The Nissan Pathfinder is indeed a brand new model for the domestic market, but it is already an old friend for the North American market, and the performance of this car in the North American market is also very good. In fact, from the appearance style of the whole car, it can be seen that there is a very obvious American car atmosphere on its body. This is also the reason why the Nissan Pathfinder is more atmospheric, the American style of muscle is often stronger, and the same is true of the Nissan Pathfinder.
The grille on the front part of the face is different from other Japanese cars, and instead of using straight lines to outline, it uses more rounded lines to decorate, so it looks deeper. The entire front part of the face is also embellished with a lot of trim strips, all in all, it still looks very domineering. The light group of the headlights also adopts a relatively bright design, which is highly recognizable. The design of the body side also looks very powerful, because the American style of the side of the body is thicker and the muscle atmosphere is stronger. The waist line is also a segmented design, the shape of the rear part of the car is very hard, and the through-type taillights just bring a bit of fashion.
Larger than Tuon, it is built with four wheel drive
Compared with the Tuon in the same class, the Nissan Pathfinder is slightly larger, which is still the same in the data. The wheelbase of the Nissan Pathfinder is 2901 mm, while the length, width and height dimensions are 5004*1979*1778 mm, respectively. This size performance is still quite excellent, so it can fully support the layout of the large seven-seater, and the seating space in the car will be very spacious.
The Nissan Pathfinder is also called the large version of The X-Trail by many netizens and riders, mainly because the interior style of the Nissan Pathfinder is basically the same as that of X-Trail. The overall style of the car is still full of a very strong atmosphere of traditional Japanese cars, the three-frame steering wheel and dashboard look very mechanical, and the seats in the car are also very comfortable, which is also the same advantage of Nissan.
Finally, there is the power aspect, as mentioned earlier, because of the emission problem, the power of the Nissan Pathfinder may be changed, and the most likely combination at present is the powertrain of 2.0T+9AT, and this car is equipped with a four-wheel drive system as standard, which is still very generous.
summary
After watching the overall performance, everyone will find that if this car is localized, then the domestic big seven-seat SUV field can really be called "fairy fight", and various car companies are very magical, which can make people feel the aura brought by this car. From the overall product strength point of view, this car into the country is likely to have an impact on Highlander, this time Highlander's opponent is really coming, I don't know what everyone thinks?
