What are the length, width, and height dimensions of the Nissan Pathfinder?
2 Answers
The Nissan Pathfinder's body dimensions are 5008mm in length, 1960mm in width, and 1783mm in height, as per official data. The length of the Nissan Pathfinder refers to the distance between two vertical lines perpendicular to the vehicle's longitudinal symmetry plane, touching the outermost protruding points at the front and rear of the vehicle. The width refers to the distance between two planes parallel to the vehicle's longitudinal symmetry plane, touching the outermost rigid fixed protruding points on both sides of the vehicle. The height refers to the distance between the highest point of the vehicle and its supporting plane. The Nissan Pathfinder is equipped with a 3.5L V6 naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum power of 288 horsepower and a peak torque of 351 Nm. It is paired with a CVT continuously variable transmission and also features a four-wheel-drive system. There are national regulations regarding vehicle dimensions. According to the national standard "GB1589-89," the total width of a vehicle does not include side mirrors. The limitation on vehicle width is intended to provide sufficient lateral clearance for overtaking between adjacent lanes. This means that, under national standards, the significance of vehicle width data lies in ensuring adequate space during overtaking, preventing accidents due to excessive width or situations where road markings are narrower than the vehicle's width. Additionally, national regulations stipulate that the total width of a vehicle must not exceed 2.5m to meet the requirements of public road usage.
I just helped a friend measure the Pathfinder's dimensions a couple of days ago, and this car is truly impressive. It's over 5 meters long, approximately 5004 mm, nearly 2 meters wide at about 1979 mm, and stands around 1800 mm tall. Driving it feels like maneuvering a mobile castle—you have to be careful when turning. The 2.2-meter height limit bar in my underground garage almost scraped the roof rack. The trunk can easily fit three large suitcases plus a stroller without feeling cramped, though you'll need to find wider parking spots at malls. By the way, it's about 10 cm longer than the Highlander but slightly shorter in height, as I compared their actual size plates at the 4S dealership last month.
