The 2022 Nissan Pathfinder marked a major redesign for Nissan’s three-row SUV, and this SV brings together the pieces that matter most for everyday family use: a naturally aspirated V6, a conventional nine-speed automatic, flexible seating, and a useful collection of driver-assistance technology. Finished in Gun Metallic with a cloth interior, this front-wheel-drive Pathfinder is sized for family duty without feeling as oversized as a traditional full-size SUV.

Under the hood is Nissan’s 3.5-liter V6 paired with a nine-speed automatic transmission. The combination gives the Pathfinder smooth, predictable power for commuting, merging, and highway travel, while the conventional automatic provides familiar response in place of the continuously variable transmission used in the previous generation.
Front-wheel drive keeps this configuration focused on pavement-oriented efficiency and everyday simplicity.

Three-row flexibility is central to the Pathfinder’s design. The cabin can accommodate up to eight passengers depending on seating configuration, and the EZ FLEX second row is designed to simplify access to the third row. When cargo becomes the priority, the rear seating can be folded to open up considerably more carrying space for luggage, sports equipment, groceries, home-improvement supplies, or the gear that comes with a busy family schedule.

SV trim adds useful convenience without pushing the Pathfinder into luxury-SUV territory. Intelligent Key with push-button start, remote engine start, tri-zone automatic climate control, power-adjustable driver seating, and multiple storage areas make daily use easier. The cabin layout is clean and straightforward, and the upright driving position gives the driver a clear view in traffic while still keeping the vehicle manageable in parking lots around Wesley Chapel and Tampa.

The infotainment system supports Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, Bluetooth® connectivity, USB connections, and steering-wheel audio controls. Nissan Safety Shield 360 brings a broad set of driver-assistance features, including Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection, Blind Spot Warning, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, Lane Departure Warning, High Beam Assist, and Rear Automatic Braking.
SV trim also adds ProPILOT Assist, which combines steering assistance with adaptive cruise-control support to reduce some of the workload during longer highway drives.

The Pathfinder’s independent suspension and four-wheel disc brakes contribute to a composed road feel, while the V6 gives it enough reserve power for a full passenger load or interstate travel. Towing capability varies with equipment, so anyone planning regular trailer use should confirm this vehicle’s exact tow package and rating before matching it to a trailer.

This Pathfinder SV is Ford Blue Certified, adding a 139-point inspection, a 90-day/4,000-mile Comprehensive Limited Warranty, 24/7 Roadside Assistance, and applicable FordPass Rewards Points. Blue certification provides additional reassurance while preserving the value proposition that makes this Pathfinder attractive in the first place.

For a buyer who needs a practical three-row SUV with traditional V6 power, an easy-to-use cabin, modern safety technology, and enough flexibility for school schedules, road trips, airport runs, and weekend activities, this 2022 Nissan Pathfinder SV remains a strong fit for Wesley Chapel, New Tampa, St. Petersburg, and the greater Tampa Bay area.
