Many three-row SUVs are available on the market today. But none are quite as impressive as the Nissan Pathfinder.

We have decided to compare it to another unique and popular vehicle in its class to illustrate just how impressive the Pathfinder is.

What's New for 2022?

The Pathfinder and the Telluride have received a long list of updates this year. Here are the new features you can expect to find on these two vehicles this year.

The interior is more luxurious than ever before. The cabin is adorned with premium materials that provide a comfortable place to sit. The interior also features new technological features and a new infotainment display.

Under the hood, the Pathfinder comes standard with a powerful 3.5-litre V6 engine that delivers impressive horsepower and torque. There is also a new smooth-shifting 9-speed automatic transmission. The Pathfinder also comes standard with a 4x4 system and a new terrain select system with seven driving modes.

The exterior has also received a few new features, including a restyled grille. You can also find the redesigned Kia logo prominently placed in different vehicle locations.

Interior Design Comparison

The Pathfinder features a more comfortable and versatile interior. The cabin offers three rows of spacious seating and plenty of legroom and headspace for all occupants. The second row comes standard with a bench seat, but owners can choose to get the available captain's chairs to give the second-row passengers a little more space. When equipped with the second-row captain's chairs, the interior also offers an EZ Flex system that allows you to

Quickly access the third row by sliding the seat forward slightly. There is also a wide range of available features to help add to the comfort and convenience of the interior. These features include a remote engine start, panoramic sunroof, and a tri-zone automatic climate control system.

The Telluride also offers three rows of seating and allows you to choose between a bench seat or captain's chairs in the second row. However, the interior does not provide much legroom for front and backseat passengers.

The 2022 Kia Telluride comes equipped with a powerful V6 engine that can deliver 291 horsepower and 262 lb.-ft of torque. The engine is mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission and comes standard with an all-wheel-drive system.

The 2022 Pathfinder comes with an engine that offers about the same power. The standard 3.5-litre V6 engine is paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission and delivers up to 284 horsepower.
