Is the 2022 Nissan Pathfinder a good car?

The Pathfinder’s practical three-row layout and family-friendly packaging fit buyers who want a midsize SUV with more character than a plain commuter. On the downside, the expert review calls out poor fuel economy and unimpressive technology, so you should expect some compromises if you prioritize efficiency or the latest infotainment polish.

Is the 2022 Nissan Pathfinder reliable?

Owners rate it 4.8/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

The owner summary points to a dependable-feeling ownership experience, with comfortable seating, a spacious interior, and smooth performance all reinforcing the sense that this is a vehicle you can count on. The expert review also describes the transmission as smooth through the gears, which supports the Pathfinder’s everyday usability and long-term appeal. Nissan’s first scheduled maintenance visit is on the house.

For used buyers, the main long-term ownership risk is that some shoppers may be less satisfied if they expect stronger fuel economy or more refined transmission behavior.

What should I look for when buying a used 2022 Nissan Pathfinder?

Accident-free inventory is solid at 82.7% — always verify the vehicle history report.

You should still run a history report on any Pathfinder you’re considering, even if the listing looks clean at first glance. Prioritize a careful inspection of the third row, transmission behavior, and overall interior condition, since those are the kinds of details that can separate a great used example from a merely decent one. Focus on how the vehicle feels in everyday driving, because comfort and smoothness are major strengths here.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The Pathfinder comes in S, SV, SL, and Platinum trims. The base S is the most stripped-down version, while SV adds more convenience, SL brings more upscale materials, and Platinum is the most luxurious with standard second-row captain’s chairs, a fully digital 12.3-inch instrument panel, and a head-up display. If you want the best value, the SV is the trim that most clearly balances equipment and price.
• Powertrain: The Pathfinder uses a 3.5-liter V6 with 284 horsepower and a nine-speed automatic transmission. It is offered with front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive, and the AWD setup adds terrain-focused drive modes plus hill descent control.
• Safety package: Nissan Safety Shield 360 is standard on every Pathfinder, and it includes automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, lane departure warning, high-beam assist, rear automatic braking, driver alertness monitor, rear door alert, and forward-collision warning. A surround-view monitor is reserved for upper trims.
• Infotainment: Standard equipment includes an 8-inch infotainment touchscreen, Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, Bluetooth, satellite radio, and a 7-inch digital driver-information display. Upper trims get a 9-inch touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay, wireless charging, and a 13-speaker Bose Premium Audio system.
• Fuel efficiency: The FWD model is rated at 21 mpg city and 26 mpg highway, while AWD versions return 21 mpg city and 27 mpg highway. The Platinum AWD is rated at 20 mpg city and 25 mpg highway.

Which 2022 Nissan Pathfinder trim should I buy?

The 2022 Nissan Pathfinder is offered in 4 trim levels: S, SV, SL, and Platinum.

Here's the short version:

• S: This is the entry point, and it gives you the Pathfinder’s core space, V6 power, and standard safety tech without the extra cost of higher-trim luxury features. It makes sense if you want the lowest starting price and can live without the nicer cabin upgrades.
• SV: This is the best-value trim for most shoppers because it adds meaningful convenience and comfort upgrades while staying below the pricier luxury-focused models. If you want the sweet spot between equipment and cost, this is the one to target.
• SL: This trim moves the Pathfinder into a more upscale lane with semi-aniline leather-appointed seating and available Bose audio, making it a better fit if you want a more premium family SUV.
• Platinum: This is the top trim, and it brings the most upscale cabin experience, including standard second-row captain’s chairs, a fully digital 12.3-inch instrument panel, and a head-up display. Choose it if you want the most features and the most polished presentation.

Upper trims get a surround-view monitor, so safety and parking convenience improve as you move up the lineup.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2022 Nissan Pathfinder?

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you have room to shop carefully and compare listings.

• Deal availability: 36.8% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 2,117 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 14.01% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 82.7% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $23,954, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2022 Nissan Pathfinder's resale value?

The current average of $23,954 sits slightly below last year's $27,856.

That price drop suggests the Pathfinder has already moved through a meaningful portion of its early depreciation. For a future seller, that can be a mixed but manageable sign: you may not see rapid appreciation, but the current market level gives you a clearer baseline for setting expectations. If you buy well and keep the vehicle in strong condition, you’ll be better positioned to preserve value when it’s time to sell.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.8/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2022 Nissan Pathfinder safe?

The 2022 Nissan Pathfinder has not been crash-tested by IIHS or NHTSA.

It earns a 9/10 safety score from our experts.

Nissan Safety Shield 360 is standard on every Pathfinder, and it includes automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, lane departure warning, high-beam assist, rear automatic braking, driver alertness monitor, rear door alert, and forward-collision warning. A rearview camera is standard, and upper trims add a surround-view monitor. Ten airbags are standard, while the top Platinum trim gets 11.

Should I buy a 2022 Nissan Pathfinder or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2022 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2022 if:

• 36.8% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is solid at 82.7% — always verify the vehicle history report.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 14.01% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.8/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• The 2022 brings back much of the Pathfinder’s classic capability with a rugged look and strong standard safety tech.

Consider the 2023 if:

• At $28,947, the 2023 costs more than the current year's $23,954 average.
• It adds the Rock Creek edition for a tougher, more rugged personality.

The bottom line: If you want the better value, the 2022 is the smarter buy because it combines a lower average price with strong owner satisfaction and a broad inventory pool. If you’re willing to spend more for the newer year’s Rock Creek flavor and slightly different positioning, the 2023 is the better fit.
