Weld bonding is a structural adhesive used around all door openings, inner fenders, and other major body panels, enhancing structural rigidity.

Zone Body construction means passengers sit in a reinforced occupant zone, incorporating front and rear crushable zones to help protect in the event of a collision.

Use of high-strength steel in key structural portions of the body assembly enhances structural rigidity. Enhanced structural rigidity helps reduce noise and improves handling and durability.

Front and rear crumple zones absorb impact energy, helping to reduce the risk of injury to passengers by helping to maintain passenger compartment structural integrity.

Pathfinder is built to withstand a beating. It's constructed like a truck, with the cabin placed securely on a sturdy latter frame.
