If your big family loves to spend quality time together on trips to the outdoors, then you won’t want to miss out on the 2023 Nissan Pathfinder or the 2023 Honda Pilot. Both family vehicles can seat up to 7 or 8 people while handling rugged paths ahead of you, but if you can only invest in one, Bob Howard Nissan would recommend the Nissan Pathfinder! See how this Nissan SUV puts the Honda one to shame when it comes to performance and safety technology below.

Nissan Pathfinder vs. Honda Pilot – Performance

At first glance, both of these models have standard 3.5L V6 engines, so they share similar performance specs like horsepower. However, take a closer look at these Nissan vs. Honda SUVs’ capabilities and you will realize that the Pathfinder delivers more than the Pilot. For example, it beats the Pilot in terms of:

  • Towing Power – Both Honda and Nissan SUVs have a standard towing capacity of 3,500 pounds, but when upgraded to proper equipment, the Pilot’s capacity increases only to 5,000 pounds while the Pathfinder’s amps all the way up to 6,000 pounds. That’s 1,000 more pounds that you can use to haul your items to your outdoor adventures in Edmond!
  • City Fuel Economy – You can rack up miles in Yukon easily with a family vehicle. However, a Nissan Pathfinder has a higher city EPA-estimated MPG of 20** while a Honda Pilot has only a 19 city EPA-estimated MPG. These specs are true for both 2WD and 4WD models.

Nissan Pathfinder vs. Honda Pilot – Safety Tech

The additional Nissan Pathfinder capability and efficiency should’ve made it obvious that the Nissan SUV is the wise choice here, but if you’re not 100% convinced yet, then you’ll want to hear about the safety technology. Along with the lower starting price, the 2023 Pathfinder also offers many state-of-the-art features that the Pilot just doesn’t have! Keep you and your family safe and sound on (and off) the road with the following features that are exclusive in the Pathfinder:
