It might not be all-change for the new Nissan Pathfinder but there are some major improvements across the board.

The base ST is two-wheel drive only and is much more expensive than the old model (by about $10k), but the addition of a bucketload of new safety and onboard tech more than makes up for it. The ST starts from $54,190 before on-road costs.

Standard gear includes 18-inch alloy wheels, keyless entry and start, three-zone air con, heated front seats, 10-way power adjustable driver’s seat, a 10.8-inch head-up display, 9.0-inch multimedia touchscreen, digital radio and a six-speaker audio system.

Safety wise the ST-L builds on the ST’s list that includes auto emergency braking (AEB) with junction, pedestrian and cyclist detection, rear AEB, rear cross traffic alert, blind spot warning, a driver alert, traffic sign recognition and trailer sway control, with the ProPilot semi-autonomous system.

All Pathfinders come with a revised version of the carryover 3.5-litre V6 petrol engine pumping out 202kW/340Nm and it’s matched with a new nine-speed automatic transmission that replaces the CVT. The hybrid from the previous model has been dropped globally.

Calling out the make and model of every single car he saw as a toddler might have challenged his parents’ patience, but it was clearly a starting point for Tim Nicholson’s journey into automotive journalism. Tim launched the program, Fender Bender, on community radio station JOY 94.9 during completion of his Master of Arts (Media and Communications). This led to an entry role at industry publication GoAuto, before eventually taking the role of Managing Editor. A stint as RACV’s Motoring Editor – including being an Australia’s Best Cars judge – provided a different perspective to automotive media, before leading him to CarsGuide where he started as a Contributing Journalist in September 2021, and transitioned to Senior Editor in April 2022, before becoming Managing Editor in December 2022.
