Pros
V6 engine delivers strong acceleration with decent fuel economy
Third-row seating is easy to access

Cons
Cargo capacity and small-item storage are below average
Offers less roomy third-row space than some rivals

Nissan doesn't change or update the 2020 Pathfinder in any meaningful way. The rugged-looking Rock Creek Edition that was introduced last year is still available. However, those who hope the heritage-inspired package actually packs some legitimate off-road equipment will be disappointed.

Pros
Solid value in this class, cushy cabin experience, notable 6000-pound towing capacity.

Cons
Drives more boatlike than it should, middling cargo storage, small third row.
