The all-new fourth generation Nissan Quest, which is now available at Conicelli Nissan, evokes a grand, mobile family living room, with bold new style and an extensive list of family-friendly innovations and amenities. Its one-touch power sliding doors, quick release fold-flat seats, Advanced Climate Control System, and rear storage well add convenience and comfort to family travel, and peace of mind to parents.
Among the new Quest's available "Innovation for Family" design features are:
* A modern exterior and interior design that provides a sophisticated, fresh approach to the minivan segment -- including a "fluid sculpture" body with full surround glass treatment
* One-touch power sliding side doors that easily unlock and open with a single touch, even with arms and hands full of groceries
* Dual Opening glass moonroofs (two), providing refreshing breezes to front and rear occupants when open
* 2nd row power windows
* Standard Quick Release Fold-Flat 2nd and 3rd row seats to make a flat load floor, and available 3rd row power-return seatback on LE
* Quick Comfort heated front seats with advanced staged heating system design
* Removable 2nd row console with cupholders and lid
* Always-available large, covered Permanent Rear Storage Well
* Advanced Climate Control System (ACCS) intelligent HVAC system with Plasmacluster™ air purifier, Grape Polyphenol Filter and auto recirculation
* Blind Spot Warning (BSW) system and RearView Monitor
* Conversation mirror, which helps enhance visibility and conversation with children in the 2nd and 3rd rows
* Standard 2nd and 3rd row theater seating with available large rear 11-inch color monitor and auto bright function
* Easy maneuverability, with small turning radius and front triangle windows for enhanced visibility
* Tire Pressure Monitoring System with Easy Fill Tire Alert, which alerts you when proper tire inflation is reached
Innovative Functionality
The all-new 2011 Nissan Quest's innovative functionality starts with the proven foundation of Nissan's advanced "D-platform," which is also utilized on the current Nissan Maxima, Altima, and Murano. Quest's long 118.1-inch wheelbase and 200.8-inch overall length provide a spacious interior within a highly maneuverable overall size.
Exterior
 |  |
Fluid sculptural elements in Quest exterior styling are accented by the bold bumper and horizontal grille and headlights. Wheels are standard 16-inch or 18-inch wheels. The seamless flow of Quest's bold door sections and surfaces into the rear boomerang-shaped taillights and tailgate finisher, create a one-piece-sculpture look.
The most striking aspect of the new Quest design, however, is the full surround privacy glass, black sash molding, and chrome trim accents. Highlighting the wide, low stance and muscular front end, this glass and trim feature gives Quest the most dynamic and distinctive appearance in the minivan class. The Quest exterior design is also one of the most wind-efficient, with a 0.32 Cd for the Quest S model.
More available exterior features include High Intensity Discharge (HID) xenon headlights, auto on/off headlight function, fog lights, and dual power heated outside mirrors. Quest also features small triangle windows in the front doors to help enhance visibility. Available on Quest SL and LE models are Dual Opening Glass Moonroofs.
Quest's door rail system, with a lower sliding door step-in height, accomodates small children or older adults getting into the 2nd or 3rd rows. In addition, a one-touch unlock/open power rear liftgate is standard on Quest SL and LE models.
The one-touch door operation takes the anxiety out of approaching the vehicle with both hands full. Sensors on the programmed I-key work with a simple push of the button on the door handle to unlock and open. There is no need to fumble for a key fob to unlock the door, no having to put packages down or let go of a child's hand to open it.
Interior and Amenities
The quick release fold-flat 2nd and 3rd row seats, the LE's 3rd row power return seatback, and other seat design innovations provide ease of use plus convenience for passengers climbing in and out of the minivan.
Quest's permanent rear storage well is independent of the fold flat 3rd row seat -- so it's always there when needed -- and is covered by a sturdy yet lightweight removable cover.
Unique Quest front seating features include a special "trilaminar" structure, which uses three types of cushions to distribute body pressure more evenly than traditional padding, and the first application of Nissan's new Quick Comfort front seat heaters (SL and LE models). When activated, this sophisticated system immediately begins warming the body parts that are most sensitive to heat, and gradually increases heating on other body pressure points.
Quest's theater-style interior layout with raised 2nd and 3rd rows provides occupants with excellent visibility and a good view of the available 11-inch WVGA family entertainment system display monitor.
Quest's wide instrument panel includes a 4.3-inch color audio display on SV and SL models, with an 8-inch touch screen display for LE models with the standard Nissan Navigation System. The hard drive-based navigation system includes a user-friendly graphic interface, menu structure and intelligent search capabilities, a 9.3GB Music Box® hard drive, XM NavTraffic® Real-Time Traffic Information, XM NavWeather™ (XM® subscription required, sold separately) and Zagat Survey® Restaurant Guide.
One of the most innovative technologies is the Quest LE's standard Advanced Climate Control System (ACCS) with Plasmacluster™ air purifier, Grape Polyphenol Filter and auto recirculation control. The system works three ways to help reduce allergens and unwanted odors within the Quest cabin. Its automatic intake control sensors constantly monitor outside odors and automatically close the intake port to prevent exhaust fumes or other unpleasant smells from seeping into the interior. When the offensive odors have passed, the system automatically restores fresh air flow.
The Grape Polyphenol Filter reduces the number of harmful allergens in the cabin air, while Plasmacluster™ purifier, generates ions to purge unwanted odors -- whether they come from outside or inside the vehicle.
A range of audio systems is also available, up to an available Bose® premium audio system with AM/FM/CD/DVD/Flash Memory, 13 speakers (including dual subwoofers) and XM® Satellite Radio (XM® subscription required, sold separately). A USB port with iPod® connectivity is standard on SV models and above.
One other Quest item helps parents make a connection with passengers in the rear seats, the Conversation Mirror. Available on SV, SL and LE models, the wide yet compact mirror replaces the sunglass holder, folding down and providing the driver with added visibility and convenient communication with passengers in the 2nd and 3rd rows, without having to turn around.
A RearView Monitor, standard on SV, SL and LE models, provides a view of objects behind the Quest when the vehicle is in reverse gear.
Reliability, Performance, and Pleasure
Dynamic performance is a hallmark of Nissan vehicles and the all-new 2011 Quest is no exception.
Quest's top-level quality and reliability starts with use of a 3.5-liter DOHC V6 with 253 horsepower and 236 lb-ft of torque, part of Nissan's award-winning VQ engine series.
Backing the engine is Nissan's advanced Xtronic CVT™ (Continuously Variable Transmission) with Adaptive Shift Control (ASC), which provides a smooth and responsive driving experience.
Quest's standard Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) includes Nissan's Easy Fill Tire Alert. When filling the tires with air, the hazard lamps flash to let you know the system is working. When the correct pressure is reached, Quest will give a friendly beep of the horn. On Quest LE, the tire pressures for each wheel can be viewed on the 8" WVGA Navigation display.
As part of Nissan's "Safety Shield" concept, Quest has a number of advanced safety systems. Standard on the Quest LE model is Nissan's new Blind Spot Warning (BSW) system, which helps alert the driver if another vehicle is detected in the blind spot by illuminating an indicator light in the appropriate outside mirror. If the driver then activates the turn signal, the indicator flashes and an audible warning sounds.
Four Well-Equipped Quest Models
The all-new 2011 Nissan Quest is offered in four models, seven exterior colors, and two interior colors, with either cloth or leather, depending on the model. (View colors at http://www.nissanusa.com/microsite/quest/2011/)
