The 2018 Nissan Pathfinder runs smoothly on regular unleaded gasoline, without any specific gas requirements. Regardless of the trim level (S, SL, SV, or Platinum), all models, including the more powerful four-wheel drive version, can use the same regular unleaded gas. The owner's manual advises using gas with an octane rating of 87 or higher, which reflects the gas's resistance levels. However, higher ratings are not necessary.
One of Nissan's popular SUV models, the Pathfinder, is equipped with a 3.5-liter engine across all its available trims. The 2018 Nissan Pathfinders, including the front-wheel drive S, SL, SV, and Platinum versions, run on regular unleaded gasoline. The same goes for their four-wheel drive counterparts, which also require unleaded fuel exclusively.
