Nissan Pathfinder Curb Weight: 4,478 lbs to 4,594 lbs

With a With Tow Package configuration, the 2026 Pathfinder is rated to pull 6,000 lbs — 1.3 times the 4,594 lbs the heaviest recorded truck weighs by itself, and 1.3 times the 4,478 lbs of the lightest.

That rating belongs to the With Tow Package build, not to every truck on this page: a Sl/platinum 4dr SUV starts 117 lbs deeper into the combined rating than a S/sv 4dr SUV before a trailer is coupled.

At 56/44, the 4,478 lbs puts about 2,507 lbs on the front axle and 1,971 lbs on the rear — 536 lbs more over the front wheels, which is what front tires and front brake pads wear against first.

Ranked on the lightest configuration of each nameplate, the Pathfinder is 88 of 98 in Small Sport Utility Vehicle 4WD, 530 lbs above the 3,948 lbs median and lighter than 10 of its peers.

The lightest 2015 record is 4,275 lbs; the lightest 2026 record is 4,478 lbs — 203 lbs heavier (4.7%).

At the top of the range the 2026 file reaches 4,594 lbs against 4,676 lbs in 2015, a 82 lbs reduction — driven by which configurations exist, not by the same truck gaining mass.

The published 18.5-gallon tank holds about 113 lbs of gasoline at 6.1 lb per gallon, and curb weight is measured with it full. Run it to empty and the Sl/platinum 4dr SUV is effectively a 4,481 lbs vehicle — 2.5% of the figure quoted above is fuel you will burn off.
