The Nissan Pathfinder is a three-row family SUV that blends genuine eight-seat practicality with a composed on-road character — positioning it squarely against the Toyota Highlander and Kia Sorento for buyers who need space without going full body-on-frame. Prices for the 2026 model start from AED 158,000.
Every Pathfinder runs a 3.5 L naturally aspirated petrol engine producing 271 BHP, paired with a Automatic gearbox. The entry S 2WD is front-wheel drive and covers the essentials, while the top-spec SL 4WD 7 Seaters steps up to all-wheel drive, a larger infotainment screen, heated and ventilated front seats, a surround-view camera, and a more detailed digital instrument cluster — meaningful upgrades for a family daily driver. Fuel economy works out to 8 Km/L on a mixed cycle, which is reasonable for a full three-row SUV of this size and output.
Pros: true eight-seat capacity across three rows is a genuine differentiator at this price point — many rivals only offer seven. The cabin layout is well thought out, with a fold-flat third row that actually frees up meaningful boot space, and Nissan's ProPILOT Assist driver-aid suite is available on upper trims. Cons: the 3.5 L naturally aspirated engine produces adequate rather than strong performance when loaded with passengers — turbocharged rivals like the Kia Sorento feel punchier. The exterior styling is conservative compared to newer entrants in the segment, which can make it a harder sell on emotion alone.
Used Pathfinder examples are available on CarSwitch — 2024 models currently list from around AED 128,000, which is roughly 19% below the new entry price, making a near-new used example a compelling alternative for budget-conscious buyers.
Buyers in this segment typically also consider the Toyota Fortuner, Ford Everest and Isuzu MU-X, which compete in a similar price range.
