2005 Nissan Quest - IntelliChoice - Automobile Magazine
The formerly forgettable Quest got a blockbuster generational makeover for 2004, shaking up the minivan establishment with avant-garde styling, a long list of features, and loads of interior space. Sharing basic FF-L platform elements and its 3. 5-liter DOHC V-6 with the Altima, Maxima, and Murano, the 2005 Quest comes in four trim levels: the 3. 5, 3. 5S, 3. 5SL, and 3. 5SE. All are front-drive, and each step up adds standards and options... Questing for success in this evaluation was a fairly loaded 3. 5 SE. Exterior. Penned at Nissan Design America in San Diego, California, the Quest breaks out of the soccer-mom milieu with distinctive body contours highlighted by an arching roof, rising "kinked" shoulder line, prominent fender flares, and flush glass from the... Even bolder inside than out, the Quest embodies what Nissan calls an "urban loft" environment. As standard minivan, the Quest can hold a 4x8-foot sheet of plywood with its large rear hatch closed. However, the Seat Package adds second-row Captain's Chairs that tip and flip forward and away at the touch of a lever, plus a three-place, fold-flat third-row bench. Source: www.automobilemag.com
