Recently, Nissan officially unveiled the 2023 "Pathfinder" special edition, and the new car has made a comprehensive transformation of the previous generation model to make it more powerful. The more intuitive thing is that the new car is equipped with 18-inch all-terrain tires and exclusive off-road components including roof carrier and air suspension, the visual effect is more domineering, and it is reported that the new car is expected to be listed overseas within this year. In this regard, netizens also said that if such a car can be listed in China, then there may be no Highlander or anything!
This "Pathfinder" special edition really brings us too many surprises, especially compared to the original, the concept of the whole modification is more avant-garde! First of all, on the front, it is still the V-motion grille we know, but the color composition is all changed to black. And because the shape of the two sides has become more stout, the entire middle net has become more narrow, but it is not simple, and there are three closed ring light strips distributed directly above the grille, and the lit LOGO is consistent with the regular version! The double C-shaped headlights on both sides have changed significantly, and they obviously look more complicated than the regular version. For the first time, the layout of the double-layer front encirclement is adopted, which is also a guarantee of the sense of strength of the whole car.
Viewed from the side, the entire line is very tough and equipped with a glossy black roof and roof rack. In addition, the new car is equipped with 18-inch all-terrain tires, combined with blackened wheel eyebrows, and full of off-road atmosphere. The segmented waist line is also the conventional design of the new car, including the side skirt of the new car has also been adjusted, and the factory is equipped with a professional-grade off-road AT tire, which provides a guarantee for off-road. The rear of the new car, except for the letters changed to black, has not been adjusted much else, and it is also designed with "Pathfinder" and "Rock Creek" logos, which can improve the recognition of the whole car!
Compared with the appearance, the adjustment of the interior is very small, and most of them continue the layout of the regular version, but fortunately, the original version will leave a deep impression, which is the embodiment of the so-called hard power. In terms of display, it still uses technology configurations such as LCD instruments, large-size central control screens and dual-temperature air conditioners. In addition, the new car has added the "Rock Creek" badge on the seat back and central armrest, highlighting its special edition model status. It is worth mentioning that the super large sofa equipped with it is definitely stronger than any model in the same class!
In terms of power, although this overseas version of the model is equipped with a 3.5-liter self-V6 naturally aspirated engine as standard, its maximum horsepower reaches 295 hp, the maximum torque is 366 Nm, and the transmission system will match the 9-speed manual transmission. The car is also equipped with a four-wheel drive system, which is available in 2WD (two-wheel drive), 4WD Hi (high-speed four-wheel drive) and 4WD Low (low-speed four-wheel drive) settings. For the entire off-road performance can still be reflected, but unfortunately this car does not have a domestic plan, so if this car is mass-produced in China, then there will be anything about Highlander? I don't know what you guys think of this car!
