The 2019 Nissan Pathfinder is already making the rounds online as spy shots were captured. The upcoming Nissan SUV was heavily disguised and camouflaged, however, car enthusiasts and experts still have their inputs about the new vehicle.

According to Auto Evolution, the 2019 Nissan Pathfinder which is considered the new generation and is expected to be more than just an evolution of the model available in dealerships currently. The current R52 Pathfinder suggested Nissan shifting its market approach. Beginning 2015, such model is only available in North America, South Korea, Middle East, Africa, Australia and New Zealand.

The Pathfinder is not released in Europe and even in Japan. There is no official news as to the reason for the Pathfinder not being available in Europe and Japan, however, it is expected to be offered in Europe sooner or later.

American buyers were significantly impressed with the 2017 model's 1,000-pounds towing capacity increase, but CVT is the only option available. It also was considered a good update as the power jumped from 240-horsepower and 240 pound-feet of torque to 284-horsepower and 259 pound-feet of torque.

The 2019 Nissan Pathfinder is expected to be better as it makes it official debut soon. Beneath the heavy cover, the new Nissan SUV promises to deliver the goods, so to speak. Nissan is expected to show the 2019 Pathfinder in about two years.

As added by Car Dissection, based on the site, the new Pathfinder's current model changes are considered nothing major. Taking their cue from the spied vehicle, it seems that the only change would be new front end and a new engine. However, other details are also given which are enough to draw enough excitement. It is also expected to have better suspension as it is reported to ride on new D-platform.

The D-platform makes for an entirely new suspension setup which is best for vehicles this size. The 2019 Nissan Pathfinder is also expected to have better handling and will be able to negotiate any road conditions, whether paved or out in the countryside doing off-roading.

The 2019 Nissan Pathfinder is also expected to be lighter and that is definitely good news. It will eventually translate to better fuel economy. Upon official release, which may be a year or two from now, the new SUV is expected to be priced around $30,000. Any official news and updates on the all-new Pathfinder will immediately be reported.
