Overview

In the realm of compact vans, the 2015 Nissan Quest is well known. It gives you the capacity to seat 7 people for a starting price of MSRP $26,530. Prices go all the way up to MSRP $43,180, with a total of 4 trims being offered. With gorgeous, and in fact quite roomy, interiors, the Nissan Quest offers seating for up to 7 people. 

There is a single engine on offer, which is a 3.5L V6 engine, attached to a CVT, that makes 260 horsepower, and 248 lb-ft of torque. This returns a combined fuel economy of 22 MPG. Despite a curb weight of 4,489 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 Honda Odyssey, the Kia Sedona, and the Chrysler Pacifica Minivan.
