Overview

In the realm of midsize vans, the 2011 Nissan Quest is well known. Prices go up to MSRP $41,350, with a total of 4 trims being offered. With gorgeous, and in fact quite roomy, interiors, the Quest offers seating for up to 7 people. There is a single engine on offer, a 3.5L V6 engine, attached to a continuously variable transmission, that makes 260 horsepower, and 240 lb-ft of torque. This returns a combined fuel economy of 21 MPG. Despite a curb weight of 4,367 pounds, this engine feels potent enough. Nissan offers a decent amount of practical as well as cosmetic features, further increasing the prospects of the Quest among competitors like the Toyota Sienna, the Honda Odyssey, and the Dodge Grand Caravan.

Buying Advice

The Nissan offers 4 trim options for the Quest starting from the economical S trim to the plush SL trim with all kinds of luxury. However, the mid-level SV trim comes at just the right price with the right amount of features such as fog lights, a leather-wrapped, tri-zone automatic climate, alloy wheels,power-sliding doors, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, steering wheel with audio controls, and more.
