Nissan Quest
Nissan arrived nearly a decade late to the minivan party when it brought out its Quest in the early ’90s. A successor to the Axxess (a people mover that was more of a small, tall wagon than a true minivan in terms of passenger and cargo capacity), the Nissan Quest didn’t break any new ground as it followed the established minivan formula of V6 power, front-wheel drive and seven-passenger capacity.
The first two generations of the Quest were rather anonymous and subpar, but the current, third-generation Nissan Quest made a huge leap ahead in terms of styling and performance. But the cabin was criticized for its oddball design (which placed the instruments in the center and many too-similar buttons on a large pillar-style center stack), flat seats, abundance of hard plastic and inconsistent build quality. Thankfully, a recent midcycle refresh brought about significant interior improvement via a redesigned dash and center stack, and upgraded materials.
In general, the Nissan Quest remains a mid-pack choice for a minivan, as it’s never been able to match top vans like the Honda Odyssey and Toyota Sienna in terms of quality, refinement or reputation for reliability. The first- and second-generation vans are mediocre picks on the used car market, while the current Quest, though improved, has never quite caught on with consumers. This model is on a one-year hiatus as an all-new version is readied for production.
