2012 Nissan Quest Review

By KBB.com Editors
You'll Like This Car If...

If the majority of your driving time is spent zipping around town picking up kids and running errands, the 2012 Nissan Quest's 19-mpg city rating will definitely help keep fuel costs down. Those looki

You May Not Like This Car If...

With such a well-thought-out interior, it's hard to imagine how Nissan left the 2012 Quest minivan without a split-screen DVD entertainment system or seating for eight people. If either or both of the

How it Drives

The 2012 Nissan Quest displays one of the best applications of Nissan's gearless CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission) we've yet tested. The CVT is the principal reason for the Quest's smooth acceleration and brisk off-the-line sprints, as well as the minivan's impressive fuel-economy figures. Of course, the best transmission in the world is worthless without the right engine to back it up, which is why Nissan chose to equip the 2012 Nissan Quest with a 260-horsepower 3.5-liter V6. Ironically, for a company known for producing enthusiast-ori

"I bought LE model 2 weeks ago. Enjoying van however there are issues. It's noisier than my Yukon I traded in. It also is getting 13.8 mpg. I drive conservatively. My wife is unhappy I bought a car with such low mpg. Captains chairs are shaking my child car seats a bit. I also periodically get weird beeps when I turn off car. There is a around view monitor but no park distance audible alerts which should be on the vehicle. The mirrors do not fold with a push of a button. No remote start. Nav is great as is voice input controls. Very noisy when rain hits roof. Seats comfortable. Cvt pretty good. Steering feel good. Center readout old dot matrix dated tech. Changing media selections require toggling as opposed to direct selection of DVD or media player or Bluetooth streaming .....annoying. Bought because Toyota Sienna interior looks cheap and Honda Odyssey exterior is hideous. Quest is most luxurious inside and attractive exterior."

"I bought this car new in Jan 2012. This car seats 7 ADULTS comfortably. Lots of leg room in middle row of seats. Lots of head room in all rows of seating. Middle row of seats also recline. Mileage is 22 mph city and 24 hwy. Would like to have an electric lift tail gate but that is the only thing I've found that I would like to change. Very quiet and smooth driving. The back up camera is a need in this vehicle because it is hard to see around the back side of the car. Middle and back seats fold flat so you have a flat surface to put things on. I never wanted a van but I would buy another one of these vans in a heartbeat! I love this car!"
