Posted on December 11, 2020
It's no secret that the winter months can become very cold very quickly in Canada. It's not long after autumn that the streets start getting covered with snow and ice. When it comes to being able to drive in winter weather, not all vehicles are created equally. There are some vehicles that are better equipped to handle cold temperatures. Luckily, Nissan has several winter vehicles to choose from. Here is a look at some of the best Nissan vehicles to drive during the winter.
Nissan Rogue
The Nissan Rogue is a sporty and adventurous SUV that offers a sleek exterior style as well as a spacious and comfortable interior. The Rogue has a high ground clearance that allows you to easily go over rough terrain. And it also comes equipped with a powerful and fuel-efficient engine that is paired to a Continuously Variable Transmission and delivers up to 181 horsepower. One of the things that makes this vehicle great for the winter roads is the fact that it offers all-wheel drive when you need it the most. Thanks to the innovative driving mode system, drivers can easily switch to "Snow" mode with a turn of the dial to active AWD and help give you better traction when driving in the snow.
Nissan Frontier
The Nissan Frontier is a tough and rugged pickup truck that offers a spacious interior that comes with several convenient features including several storage compartments and two 12-volt power outlets. The Frontier is powered by a strong V6 engine that delivers 261 horsepower and 281 lb-ft of torque. With this engine, the Frontier is able to tow up to 3,043 kg (6,710 lbs). This powerful truck comes equipped with a wide range of features that make it perfect for driving in cold, and possibly hazardous conditions. The Hill Start Assist and Hill Descent Control utilize the 4WD system to help you maintain control while driving up and down a steep hill. The Frontier also comes with an electronic locking rear differential that delivers power to the rear tires in order to give the truck a boost and help it regain traction.
Nissan Pathfinder
The Nissan Pathfinder is a versatile and spacious SUV. The pathfinder not only offers three rows of spacious seating that provide plenty of legroom and headspace for all occupants, but it also comes with an innovative Tri-Zone Automatic Temperature Control System that helps to ensure that every passenger is able to stay warm and comfortable on the cold winter days. The Pathfinder also comes equipped with a powerful 3.5-litre V6 engine that delivers an impressive 284 horsepower. To help you safely travel down cold and wet roads, the Pathfinder offers an intelligent 4x4 system and a driving mode system that allows you to easily select "Snow" mode to activate the 4-wheel drive system and help ensure that your tires are getting adequate traction.
