If you require a versatile SUV that comfortably seats eight, the 2026 Nissan Pathfinder is a fantastic choice. You will find yourself impressed by its high-quality cabin, muscular towing capabilities, and advanced safety features. As you shop, you may find yourself comparing the S and SV trims. Here's an overview of how they measure up.
Performance
Under the hood of both Pathfinder trims is a proven 3.5-liter V6 engine that puts out 284 horsepower. This gives the SUV plenty of power for family trips. A nine-speed automatic transmission is utilized, and drivers can choose between front-wheel drive or four-wheel drive.
The Pathfinder S has a towing capacity of 3,500 pounds, which is ideal for small campers. If you need more capability, the SV trim can tow up to 6,000 pounds when the available Premium Package is added. This package includes a transmission cooler and a trailer hitch.
Appearance
The Pathfinder's exterior design is both rugged and attractive. Standard features on the S trim include 18-inch alloy wheels, LED headlights, and a redesigned front grille. The SV trim has a nearly identical look, retaining the stylish elements found on the base model.
Features
Technology lovers will appreciate the Pathfinder S's new 12.3-inch touchscreen and wireless smartphone integration. Safety features like automatic emergency braking and blind-spot warning are also standard. Other features include three-zone climate control and a six-speaker sound system.
The SV trim offers extra comfort with heated front seats and a power driver's seat. It also features ProPILOT Assist, which helps with highway driving. A power liftgate, remote start, and lane-keep assist are also included in the SV's list of standard equipment.
