That being said:
I wish it had a Diesel and/or Hybrid variant.

Unlike the USA / Canada / Middle East where fuel is cheap, the pricing of fuel in Australia can be somewhat more expensive........so a non-hybrid VQ35DD engine on an SUV will hurt one's fuel budget.

Haven't kept track of Pathfinder changes over the years, but speaking as someone who off-roads and owns SUVs more for utility usage (lashing canoe on top or lumber, fishing trips, hauling stuff in the back, etc), this new version seems more like a paved road vehicle?

And does anyone use their 4x4 to push things anymore, lol? I think that front facia would crack. Seems like things have changed since the earlier version:

The INFINITI Version ~ New QX60 Looks Nicer ~

It Lacks a VQVHR 3.7 that would Pump Out Over 300 Ponies though . . . .

Lack of Power is kind of a deal breaker ~ that and the $50,000 USD Starting Price

The Smyrna, TN Plant is only pumping out about 3,000 units a month ~
