New 2026 Nissan Pathfinder Trim Levels
At our new car dealership, you may come across four trim levels for the 2026 Nissan Pathfinder: SV, SL, Rock Creek, and Platinum.
The SV covers the essentials with a 12.3-inch infotainment display, wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™, a RearView Monitor, and Safety Shield 360 technology. The SL adds a touch of refinement with a heated steering wheel and an HD-Enhanced Intelligent Around View Monitor for easier parking and tighter spaces.
The Rock Creek brings a more rugged edge with 18-inch beadlock-style wheels, a lifted stance, a black mesh grille, and a more trail-focused interior with Rock Creek badging and leatherette seating. At the top, the Platinum focuses on luxury and tech, featuring a Bose® Premium Audio System, climate-controlled front seats, and a panoramic moonroof.

2026 Nissan Pathfinder Seating & Cargo
Adventures are much more enjoyable when everyone can ride in comfort. Standard heated front seats on the 2026 Pathfinder help take the edge off chilly mornings, while available heated second-row seats and ventilated front seats present extra convenience on select trim levels.
A flexible layout makes everyday life more manageable: a standard reclining and folding 60/40-split second row, available captain's chairs for improved access to the third row, and a third row that also reclines and folds in a 60/40 split. Passengers in every row have room to stretch out, with 44.3 inches of front legroom, 35.5 inches in the second row, and 28 inches in the third row.
When it's time to haul gear instead of people, the Pathfinder opens up to a maximum of 80.5 cubic feet of storage area, giving you plenty of room for luggage, equipment, or bulky furniture.
2026 Nissan Pathfinder Performance & Specs
Under the hood, every new Nissan Pathfinder for sale is outfitted with a 3.5-liter V-6 engine that produces a standard 284 horsepower and 259 pound-feet of torque. Paired with a nine-speed automatic transmission, this powertrain keeps you moving smoothly whether you're merging onto Interstate 465 or cruising through town.
Need a bit more muscle? The Rock Creek turns things up, boosting output to 295 horsepower and 270 pound-feet of torque, along with standard 4WD for added confidence when the pavement ends. Across the lineup, available drive modes adjust traction and response to different road conditions, from rain-slick streets to rougher terrain.
When properly equipped, the Pathfinder can tow up to 6,000 pounds, making it ready for boats, campers, or recreational toys that fall within the weight limit.
Even with that kind of strength, this SUV keeps gas mileage in check, with EPA-estimated ratings reaching up to 21/27/23 MPG (City/Highway/Combined)2 on FWD configurations. A standard 18.49-gallon fuel tank and regular 87-octane fuel requirement keep things cost-effective at the pump.
