When you’re the soccer mom or dad on your block, you need a vehicle that can carry the whole team. If you’re not into buying an old short bus, you may want to check out the 2017 Nissan Quest. The 21st century’s answer to the family station wagon, the Quest is an SUV that will make you think that you’re riding in a limo with all of its luxurious appointments that are either standard or available.
Creature Comforts in the 2017 Nissan Quest
The seats have been specially engineered for comfort and to reduce fatigue on long trips. The driver’s seat is 8-way power adjustable, and both front seats are heated. An available leather-wrapped gearshift is just one of the fine touches in the Quest. The dual opening moonroof lets in light and fresh air or closes off to shade you from the sun’s glare. Second- and third-row passengers will appreciate the sunshades that pull up to stop the glare of the sun on them. The second-row console has cup holders and storage space, but it also moves out of the way to create a walk-through space if you desire. Behind the third-row seat, an in-floor storage space is accessible whether the rear seat is up or folded flat. It holds your things out of sight and out of reach. Each row of riders can adjust the heat or AC to their own comfort so everyone is comfortable before and after their soccer game.
Technology and Safety
For those “are we there yet?” trips, you may choose to have a DVD entertainment system installed. So everyone can view the screen, the center and rear seats are each staggered somewhat, putting each seat a little higher than the one in front of it. The airbags have seat belt sensors and an adjustable inflation rate that is based on the crash severity and the seatbelts that are in use. Blind spot warning, antilock brakes, and a traction control system help you give you a safe ride.
The Quest for Power and Performance
Powered by a 3.5-liter V6 engine that is coupled with Nissan’s Xtronic CVT transmission, the 2017 Nissan Quest delivers 260 horsepower for a smooth and dependable ride. The Quest has a steering feature that allows the steering feel to automatically adjust to an easier feel at low speeds, like when parking, but then it tightens up when you’re up to speed. The hydroelectric power steering unit uses less power than a traditional hydraulic system, which translates to better gas mileage.
