The Nissan offers over 44” of Front legroom. The Honda has significantly less. This is why the rear legroom in the Nissan is less. The measurement is taken with the front seat in its maximum position, thus shrinking the rear seats measurement. You two do absolutely the BEST Comparison videos.

@hellkitty1014 13 дней назад

Yep, the Nissan has really long seat tracks. Honda seats never go back far enough for this 6'5 guy.

@DesertRailProductions 13 дней назад

Pathfinder all the way. Nissans bigger suvs and their trucks are actually just as if not more reliable than hondas and toyotas, and they cost significantly less for more stuff. People just say nissan is bad all around cause they see the letters "cvt".

@kevinsavee7954 12 дней назад

Yeah I agree also. Nissan vehicle models with the cvt destroyed the brand's reputation.

@rapide12345 13 дней назад

I'd take the Pathfinder, Nissan needs to put the new Google infotainment system on this.

@tayboogyy 13 дней назад

I do like the Pathfinder quite a bit, and I assume it COULD be much more reliable for many years to come! Especially considering Nissan pulled the plug on the CVT :D

@jppilotadventurez5251 8 дней назад

After owning 6 Honda from 2020-now I’ll gladly take a Nissan pathfinder. Honda quality control has taken a 💩. I traded my 2022 piece of 💩 pilot in for a 24 AWD Nissan ariya. This thing drive like a DREAM! Only noises I hear are tire/road contact, no wind no nothing. I’m still in shock on how I hear 0 wind noise. Sadly I’ll probably never go back to Honda again.

@trenton737 13 дней назад

I'd take the Pathfinder. I do like the Grand Highlander, Explorer, Traverse/Acadia/Enclave a little bit more tho.

@RysterARCEE 12 дней назад

Both are solid choices. However, both suffer from less than ideal dealership experiences. Honda dealers won't budge on price because they can sell every Pilot they get in. Nissan dealers will discount Pathfinders all day long, but when it comes to service are very spotty. If I had to choose anything in this segment, I would go either Highlander or Traverse. If I had to choose between only the Pilot or Pathfinder, I would choose the Pathfinder because of the more refined interior, slightly larger front row room, and I think it just looks a little better on the exterior. Not to mention the Pathfinders are readily available and dealers are discounting them.

@kevinW826 13 дней назад

Having worked on both, for me I’m going with the Nissan because that VQ motor is just as reliable as the J35 Honda and will be cheaper on parts, at least in my area. Plus I’m not a fan of push button shifters so Honda looses me on that.

@hellkitty1014 13 дней назад

I'd even argue the VQ is more proven than this Honda 3.5 because it is the first to have a DOHC design, aside from the J35. VQs have timing chains vs belt, and we all know the internals on VQs are pretty stout!

@chrissmith1246 11 дней назад

We recently test drove both. The shifter in the Pathfinder is pretty wonky going into neutral. I could see panic attacks going thru car washes. Pilot is only banking on the Honda name at this point. If I had to choose 1, I would pick the Pathfinder, the front seats were amazingly comfortable.

@omarturkostani680 13 дней назад

I think you missed one part which is maintenance costs and spare parts pricing. Honda is sooo much expensive than Nissan (at least in my country) Please include the total costs of regular maintenance from 10000 KM to 100 k KM (or miles) for both cars According to what I saw (in my country from 0-100k KM maintenance for Honda pilot is around 5k $ and for nissan Pathfinder around 2.7k $)

@apt62 12 дней назад

Honda also has much better resell value.

@mark8684 13 дней назад

You overlooked the passenger power seat adjustments. The Pathfinder has full power adjustments, including power lumbar adjust while the Pilot only has 4-way power adjustment. The Pilot has no passenger seat height adjustment and no lumbar adjustment! That alone would prevent me from buying the Pilot. Also, the Pathfinder can accommodate 48” wide material in the rear cargo area while the Pilot cannot. This is because the width between the rear wheel housings is over 48” in the Pathfinder while the Pilot is narrower.

@edoliver4255 11 дней назад

IMO the Pilot looks better

@Hoosiertown 10 дней назад

Nissan and Ford are probably my favorite brands so I’m a little biased lol lol but buy what you like. Everything has problems and nothing perfect it’s made by humans and we’re not perfect at all. Have an awesome weekend everybody And God bless and gentlemen keep up the great work.

@willmoore5862 13 дней назад

We looked at all the mid size 3 row SUV’s & it only really came down to the Pilot & Grand Highlander. We loved both but the Grand Highlander was a bit more expensive and had a monthly subscription for some of their services. We got the Pilot Elite & don’t regret it at all.

@hellkitty1014 13 дней назад

Saved yourself about $10K in the process and Toyota is having some serious quality lapses at the moment.

Engineering background my uncle was a mechanic he said he made money off of Nissan and Mitsubishi he said as far as Japanese cars goes Toyotas and Hondas are the best along with their luxury arm the Lexus and the Acura Nissan and Mitsubishi’s are not good so based on that I would pick the Honda pilot

@markdimartino6820 13 дней назад

I like the styling of the Pathfinder. I’m sure they are both going to be reliable vehicles so you can’t go wrong with either one.

@magnoliap5824 12 дней назад

Pathfinder all day.

@Erdie5 13 дней назад

Can't go wrong with either, really. One caveat, we own a '20 Odyssey, and there's a "feature" of Honda cars that has been around for years and years. If you can take some sort of extended test drive, do so. Seats in Honda's cars are notoriously uncomfortable for a lot of people. They tend to be stiffer, but in a bad way if that makes sense. My wife doesn't complain about her Odyssey, but I do. Basically, if you're built like me with very little, ahem, derriere, you may not be comfortable, especially on longer trips. Funny that it's paired up with the Pathfinder, as I've found Nissan to have the most comfortable seats of all brands for people like me (seats are extremely subjective). And it isn't even close. (We currently own 1 Honda and 1 Nissan). But at the end of the day, both our cars have been fantastic as far as mechanical issues. Nothing to speak of.

@carlosurdaneta2834 13 дней назад

Before watching this video I’ve always like the Pathfinder because of its design, but now seeing the new generation of Pilot I would probably go with Honda and also for its reliability

@TwoPair72 12 дней назад

Go with the Honda. As an owner of a '23 Pathfinder with only 15K miles on it, it's a hunk of junk. Tomorrow will make the fifth trip to the dealer. I'm still under warranty, thank God. To many electronic, build quality and now the transmission has issues. As soon as the '25 Passport comes out, I'm punting it.

I owned a last generation Pilot Ex-L. It was fine until 3900 miles it started cackling noises from the speaker and then the infotainment goes black. I drove it 10000 more miles and made 15+ trips to dealership before i traded it for a highlander. No intention to go back to Honda brand and its crook dealerships.

@ChesterSm-ge1hb 13 дней назад

I’ve experienced similar conditions/circumstances only worse with Toyota, I’ve owned 6. Last one was a Highlander, dumped it at 13,400 miles, don’t need the headaches. Myself and family stick mostly with Honda, Never had Any issues.

@adamwright9741 13 дней назад

Two things that make me pick the Pilot over the Pathfinder.. If somebody is smart enough to buy the the new Pilot with a darker color, that thing looks entirely much better than that Pathfinder looks. (Of course sometimes I wish the exterior look gave any points) Also with the Pilot having the more refined interior experience, AS WELL as the all-important to me - under console storage for my wife's work notebooks and purse, I'm not sure that even if your points doubled the Pilot that I would pick the Pathfinder.

@magnoliap5824 13 дней назад

The Pathfinder has storage under the center console. Mine has the blackout package and looks great.

@2steaksandwiches665 13 дней назад

We bought a pilot about eight months ago. I never considered Nissan because Nissan. The Pathfinder and frontier may be good, but the rest of the stuff they make is garbage. I don’t have respect for companies phone it in. Altima, Sentra, versa, cvt. It’s like Nissan chooses not to be successful.

@devongee1776 13 дней назад

I've had two Altima 's in my life. Both were perfectly fine vehicles and drove all the miles I asked of them without hiccups. They also came from a time where Nissan was offering you more for your money than the Honda's, which was just fortunate timing. Doesn't seem like they get away with that anymore, on any model. Most redeeming part of the Nissan experience is that you're far more likely to find good deals on them. But one could argue you could get even better deals by going to Mitsubishi for a crossover instead, where they may practically GIVE you the car.

@2steaksandwiches665 13 дней назад

@@devongee1776 I always looked at that value equation that was saying OK. The Honda is 15% more but it’s significantly better. Even when I didn’t have any money. I found a way.

@hellkitty1014 13 дней назад

As much as I don't like CVTs, the JATCO has come a long way in terms of refinement and reliability. Nissan's VQ V6 is probably one of the most proven on sale in the industry as well. Honda's DOHC 3.5 is technically new and not as proven as the J35 SOHC. That said, you really can't go wrong with either and the Pilot is a great choice!

@@velboone6041 correct. I know better. I’ve rented enough of them because they are mostly rental cars. Nissans are appliances. Then again most cars in this category are.
