Well-appointed family van

If you love the look of an SUV, but need the cargo space that a van offers, take a closer look at the commanding 2015 Nissan Quest passenger van. You'll enjoy seating for seven passengers, or fold down the rear two rows of seating to open up 108 cu-ft of cargo room to use for work (tools, supplies, boxes, etc.) or pleasure (weekend van camping, dog kennels, splurges from the garden store, etc.). New for the 2015, Nissan discontinued the LE trim and introduced the Platinum trim.

5 reasons to buy the 2015 Nissan Quest

1. Comfortable cabin 

Whether you're the driver, or you're thinking about your passengers, the 2015 Nissan Quest excels at comfort. Very little wind or road noise makes it into the cabin, making it a nice quiet environment for kids sleeping on road trips. When they're awake, the optional rear DVD entertainment system in the SV and SL trims will keep them busy. As you get comfortable in the driver's seat, you'll appreciate the standard tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel, six-way manually adjustable front seats, and cruise control. 

2. Powerful van 

Under the hood of the 2015 Nissan Quest, you'll find a 3.5L V6 engine with 260 hp and 240 lb-ft of torque paired with a continuously variable transmission (CVT). This van can tow an estimated 3,500 lbs when properly equipped with the optional Class II trailer package (available on all trims).

If you're planning a camping trip, go ahead and bring along the little pop-up camper or a small utility trailer packed with supplies. 

3. Handy driver features 

Are you giving your teen driving lessons? You'll both enjoy the many driving aids on the 2015 Nissan Quest that make driving easier. If you stop at the gas station to check tire pressure and fill up with air, the tire alert system (on all trims) will honk the van's horn when you've reached the recommended pressure. All trims include traction control and stability control. Choose the Platinum trim to gain a blind-spot monitoring system and a 360-degree camera to assist with parking. 

4. Modern technology 

If you're a techie and enjoy having access to the latest features, the 2015 Nissan Quest Platinum trim won't disappoint. You'll enjoy a 360-degree top-down camera system to better see around the entire vehicle. This system alerts you to moving objects near the van, such as pedestrians or pets. There's also an eight-inch touchscreen display to operate the navigation system, Bluetooth® phone and audio connectivity, and a 13-speaker Bose® sound system. For the kids riding in the back, a rear DVD entertainment system with an 11-inch widescreen makes every journey fun. 

5. Exciting options 

The 2015 Nissan Quest comes in four trims (S, SV, SL, and Platinum) with many optional packages and solo add-on features. A few options to watch for include the power driver seat and leather seats on the SV trim. Love lots of daylight? Look for the optional dual-panel sunroof on the SL and Platinum trims to bring brightness to the entire van cabin.
