Nissan Drops Affordable 2025 Pathfinder Lease Deal For July
Today, there is no shortage of excellent mid-size SUVs with third-row seating. But one of the most underrated choices, the Nissan Pathfinder, is also one of the most affordable. For July 2025, the Nissan Pathfinder is available for $389 per month over a 36-month lease term. You'll need $4,339 due at signing, and you can drive 10,000 miles per year. Shoppers in other major, popular markets can still secure a highly competitive lease payment on the new Nissan Pathfinder. For example, shoppers in the greater Los Angeles area and southeastern US (like Miami) can take home a new Pathfinder for $409 per month over the same 36-month term. You'll only need $4,239 due at signing and still get 10,000 miles per year. These estimates don't include local taxes and other fees, nor the acquisition or disposition fees. Check out the Nissan website yourself for the latest Pathfinder deals and incentives. Standard seating for eight passengers, a seriously attractive base MSRP of just over $36,400, and no-charge Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration make the Nissan Pathfinder a standout value in the mid-size SUV segment. Like competitors (Pilot, Palisade, etc.), it touts a naturally aspirated V6 under the hood. Unlike those rivals, though, it touts a 6,000-pound maximum towing capacity, which is near the top of its class. The lease offer quotes a $43,350 MSRP, too, specifying a four-wheel drive SV trim that adds heated seats, blind-spot intervention, ten-way power seats, remote engine start, and more. Want to put zero down on your new Nissan Pathfinder lease? By spreading out the quoted due at signing amounts, we can get a rough idea of how much a monthly lease payment would be with $0 down. Dividing the $4,339 down across 36 monthly payments adds roughly $121 to your monthly payment, bringing a new monthly lease payment to $510 per month. Your payment will be higher, and this estimate isn't an official Nissan quote, nor does it account for local fees, taxes, and other charges. Talk to your local Nissan dealership for more information. The 2025 Nissan Pathfinder may be a bit of a jack of all trades, master of none. Competitors offer better on-street manners or off-road chops, depending on what you need. But if what you're looking for is just a little bit of everything, the Pathfinder deserves consideration. Especially when you consider the attractive lease deal Nissan is running for July 2025. *Disclaimer: This article is provided for informational purposes only.

Nissan is closing a major factory in Japan to cut costs. Could American plants be next?
Nissan announced July 15 the company will close its flagship factory just south of Tokyo in Oppama, Japan, the latest edition of the company's cost-cutting efforts. The move is part of a larger company shakeup that includes cutting 11,000 jobs and closing seven of its manufacturing plants worldwide. "Nissan will restructure production operations at the Oppama plant and plans to transfer and integrate into the Kyushu plant by end of fiscal year 2027," a Nissan spokesperson said. "This step supports our goal of building a resilient and responsive global manufacturing footprint." The Japanese automaker, whose American operations are based in Franklin, Tenn., will also close the doors to its Nissan Shatai's Shonan factory by March 2027, CEO Ivan Espinosa said. "It was a difficult decision for both myself and the company," Espinosa said at a press conference in Yokohama, reported by Reuters. "However, we believe it is necessary for Nissan to overcome its current challenging situation." The report follows an abysmal fiscal year for the Japanese automaker. The company reported a 200 billion yen ($1,352,111,000) operating loss in its first quarter, a 88% crater in operating profits, according to Reuters. Opening in 1961, the Oppama site was one of Japan's first large-scale auto factories. Employing 3,900 workers, the site dubbed Nissan's 'mother factory' has manufactured more than 17.8 million vehicles to date. Oppama operations will be consolidated at Nissan's Kyushu plant. On average, Nissan's Japanese factories run at 60% capacity, but once production moves to Kyushu, the factory will run at 100%, Espinosa added. Roughly 2,400 workers could be transferred to non-factory functions or other plants, Espinosa added. Other facilities and functions in the district like the Nissan Research Center and the crash test site, among others, will 'remain unaffected and continue to operate as usual,' the spokesperson said. Despite Nissan's cuts overseas, the automaker's Smyrna and Canton, Mississippi, manufacturing plants remain in full swing, producing Nissan Pathfinder, Murano, Rogue, Altima, Frontier and Infiniti QX60. 'Our manufacturing operations in Tennessee and Mississippi are strategically important to the company's future in this crucial market,' Nissan Americas Corporate Communication Director Kyle Bazemore told The Tennessean in May following the job cuts announcement.

Troopers charge Arkport motorist with three felonies in crash that injured DOT workers
An Arkport driver who allegedly struck and injured three people while driving through a state work zone in Hornellsville faces felony charges and a drugged driving count in connection to the June 11 crash. Hornell-based New York State Police said a 2019 Nissan Pathfinder driven by Brooke A. Burdett, 30, was southbound on state Route 36 at around 11 a.m. when it struck a trio of New York state Department of Transportation employees. The workers were washing down a bridge when the vehicle plowed into the work zone at 36 and county Road 70A., Hornell public safety officials said. The Pathfinder then collided with a DOT vehicle stationed at the site, troopers said. Two of the workers, ages 52 and 60, were taken to St. James Hospital in Hornell. The third, a 30-year-old, was airlifted to Strong Memorial Hospital in Rochester. All three were released from the hospital with serious but non-life-threatening injuries, State Police said. Burdett was charged with three counts of first-degree reckless endangerment, a class D felony, driving while ability impaired by drugs, a misdemeanor, and several traffic infractions. Troopers said Burdett appeared in Steuben County Central Arraignment Court. Three Hornell Fire Department rigs went to the crash, according to Fire Chief Frank Brzozowski. 'When the first call came in, it said bad accident, a car plowed through a construction area, several people injured. So we were addressing it as a mass casualty incident,' Brzozowski told the Hornell Board of Public Safety Thursday. "That is our primary area, so we dispatched automatically with North Hornell Fire (Department).'

The Hornell Police Department also responded to the scene, providing safety control and investigative assistance, Police Chief TJ Murray said. .Email Neal Simon at nsimon@ To get unlimited access to the latest news, please subscribe or activate your digital account today.

Man arrested in GA says he'll ‘kill some more' after parents found dead in FL home
A 38-year-old man facing murder charges made some bizarre claims before deputies found his parents dead. [DOWNLOAD: Free WSB-TV News app for alerts as news breaks] On June 6, around 11 a.m., deputies in Sumter County, S.C., received a call about a disturbance involving a gun on Green View Parkway. The suspect left before deputies arrived. Witnesses told investigators the suspect, identified as Nikolas Steven Kirchner, 38, pointed a gun at multiple people and threatened to shoot them. Investigators said he allegedly held a family member at gunpoint and forced another to go inside the home to get someone else, threatening to shoot the hostage in the head if they didn't do what he said. According to reports, a family member came out of the house armed, causing Kirchner to get his car and drive away while the family member was on the phone with dispatch.

The witness told deputies the man was wearing a white and red baseball cap, kneeling with one hand raised. When deputies searched the man's name in the database, they confirmed it was Kirchner. The TCSO said they also learned he was the same person wanted out of Sumter, S.C. and was a suspect in a recent homicide in Pinellas County, Fla. During the investigation, officials said the 38-year-old admitted to killing two people and said that he had abandoned a stolen Nissan Pathfinder along Interstate 20. Deputies found the car in Pinellas County, Fla. [SIGN UP: WSB-TV Daily Headlines Newsletter] Simultaneously, the Pinellas County Sheriff's office in Fla. was conducting its own investigation into two homicides. Pinellas County authorities said, around 12:35 p.m., that Friday afternoon, deputies executed a welfare check at a home on Saunders Avenue in Largo, after a company said an employee did not show up to work. When deputies arrived, they found Elizabeth Lee Kirchner, 53, and Steven Eric Kirchner, 64, dead in the living room from apparent gunshot wounds. Detectives said they learned the victims' son, Nicholas Kirchner, left the home. Detectives got a call from Sumter County authorities regarding the incident Nicholas was involved in earlier. According to officials, during the incident, Nicholas Kirchner said, 'I've already killed two people – I'll kill some more.' Nicholas admitted multiple times that he killed his parents and described it as a 'righteous kill,' according to the PCSO. Nicholas was ultimately arrested and taken into custody by the Taliaferro County Sheriff's Office. Nicholas was transported to the McDuffie County Jail in Georgia with a felony warrant for two counts of first-degree murder premeditated.
