2022 Nissan Pathfinder’s Off-Roading Features Compare to the Competition?
As one of Nissan’s premier midsize SUVs, it should come as no surprise that the 2022 Nissan Pathfinder has a lot to offer drivers. What may surprise you, however, is how well it performs off the road! Let’s explore how the 2022 Nissan Pathfinder off-roading capability sizes up to the competition.
2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee
Like many other new SUVs in the 2022 model year, the 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee received an updated exterior design, but the glam doesn’t automatically mean it’s off-road ready. The Jeep Grand Cherokee offers drivers the choice between three different 4×4 systems: the Quadra-Trac I, Quadra-Trac II, or Quadra-Drive with an electronic limited-slip rear differential.
While all trim levels can be customized with additional off-roading features, only the Trailhawk® trim level comes off-road-ready at the get-go.
2022 GMC Acadia
On the trail, the 2022 GMC Acadia gives drivers the flexibility of a Traction Select System to best match their engine’s output to the surrounding terrain. The available Active Torque Control AWD system allows this vehicle to shine off-roads, actively providing torque to the wheels that need it.
However, the 2022 GMC Acadia’s 4,000 pound maximum tow capacity fails to keep up with both the Jeep Grand Cherokee and the Nissan Pathfinder.
2022 Nissan Pathfinder
How does the 2022 Nissan Pathfinder hold up against the two vehicles mentioned above? The available all-wheel drive is an absolute must, as it adds seven drive modes that can help match your engine’s output to the surrounding terrain, like an improvement on the technology of the GMC Acadia.
One such mode is the Tow mode, allowing drivers to efficiently tow a trailer even through the most rugged terrains. The others consist of Eco, Sport, Snow, Sand, and Mud/Rut, which can help drivers navigate through just about any climate with ease.
