Nissan Pathfinder Luggage Test | How much cargo space behind 3rd row?

The 2022 Nissan Pathfinder has 16.6 cubic-feet of space behind its raised third row. That's basically the same as the Honda Pilot (16.5), a bit bigger than the Toyota Highlander (16.0) and a lot bigger than the Mazda CX-9, but a fair bit smaller than the Hyundai Palisade (18.0), Kia Telluride (21.0) and VW Atlas (20.6). All of those links go to their respective luggage tests.

Alright, so that's how the Pathfinder's cargo space compares to those on paper. You know the drill, here's what it is in terms of actual stuff.

You know, not a lot to report here. This at least looks like 16.6 cubic-feet of space when compared to all those other SUVs.

Two important notes, however.

Like others, the Pathfinder's third row reclines. You can see the recline range above. As always, I set the seat at an angle that seems comfortable enough for an average-sized adult or teenager to sit back there for some length of time.
