Spacious & Stylish: The Best 2023 Nissan SUVs for Edmonton Drivers

Nissan's extensive lineup of SUVs gives drivers plenty of different options to choose from and makes it easy for you to get behind the wheel of a model that's perfect for your needs. Some drivers are looking for a spacious interior that can hold plenty of passengers and cargo. Others value efficiency and are fine with a smaller vehicle as long as it has good fuel economy. Finally, there are those who want to strike a balance between the two with something in the middle. Since Nissan SUVs come in all shapes and sizes, you don't have to compromise: you can get exactly what you're looking for.

Here at LA Nissan, we know that just as there's no one-size-fits-all solution for drivers as a whole, there's also no one SUV that's right for all Edmonton drivers. The City of Champions is one of the largest cities in Canada, and it takes all kinds of people to keep Alberta's capital running. Each of the five 2023 Nissan SUV models here brings something unique to the table. Let's take a look at what these vehicles have to offer Edmonton drivers.

Versatile: Nissan Rogue

In a busy metropolitan area like Edmonton, it's good to be ready for anything. If you want to be prepared for wherever life might take you next, the versatile Nissan Rogue is a great choice. If you opt for the available Intelligent All-Wheel Drive system, you'll be able to easily switch between five different drive modes. With options for off-roading and snow, you can travel out to more rural areas without worry, and you'll have the extra traction you need to get through even the coldest Canadian winter with confidence. The Nissan Safety Shield 360 suite of driver-assistance features also comes standard on the 2023 model, with features that make driving safer for you, your passengers, and the vehicles and pedestrians around you.

With all of the seats in place, the Rogue can hold up to five passengers, with plenty of space for everyone in the front and back to stretch out and get comfortable. If you need more room for cargo, then you can fold down the rear row to unlock the maximum cargo capacity of 2,098 L. Despite all of the interior space it offers, the 2023 Rogue doesn't guzzle down fuel. It has a fuel economy rating of up to 7.2 L/100 km combined, so you can get pretty far without having to stop for gas.

A popular Nissan SUV, an orange 2023 Nissan Kicks, is shown rounding a city corner.

Affordable: Nissan Kicks

Compact and ready for action, the Kicks is an SUV that's built for both utility and fun. You can tell at a glance that it's packed with style, especially if you opt for the SV Special Edition, which has exclusive design elements that help it to stand out from the pack, like a rear roof spoiler, black alloy wheels, and a shiny stainless steel exhaust finisher. Whether you're commuting to the office or spending a weekend enjoying the museums and restaurants of downtown Edmonton, you'll appreciate the nimble handling and responsive steering that you'll find behind the wheel of the Kicks.

The Kicks is smaller than the other SUV models in Nissan's lineup, which gives it a few advantages. For one thing, it's incredibly affordable, which makes it a great choice for drivers on a budget. Beyond its low sticker price, it can also save you money on fuel since the 2023 model has a fuel economy rating of 7.2 L/100 km combined. But don't think that you'll be stuck with a cramped interior. The Kicks offers up to 915 L of cargo space, and the rear seat has a 60/40 split, so you can easily reconfigure the space to suit your needs.

Spacious: Nissan Pathfinder

Many drivers can get by with a vehicle that seats five people, but a larger SUV is a necessity for others. Plenty of Edmonton drivers have large families or need a lot of cargo space. If that's the case, then you can opt for the Nissan Pathfinder, which seats up to eight passengers and has a spacious cargo hold that can fit everything from groceries to mountain bikes. There are also plenty of unique storage solutions, like lower-dash storage bins, under-shifter storage, and under-floor storage, making it easy to keep everything tucked away and well-organized. If you need to bring even more along for the ride, you can always tow it. The Pathfinder has a maximum towing capacity of 2,721 kg, so you can bring your boat down to the North Saskatchewan River or fill a trailer with everything you need to make your next vacation perfect.

Edmonton may be a big city, but there's plenty of nature to be found nearby, from Elk Island National Park and Miquelon Lake Provincial Park to the Clifford E Lee Nature Sanctuary. The Pathfinder's rugged capability is perfect for drivers who are looking for a little adventure, especially the Rock Creek trim, which has an off-road-tuned suspension and is ready for just about anything. Features like four-wheel drive can come in handy not just on rocky trails but also on wet or snowy roads. The Pathfinder is also available with plenty of modern technology, like a cutting-edge infotainment system with wireless connectivity so you can stay informed and entertained no matter how long your drive is.

Luxurious: Nissan Murano

For an elevated experience, consider the Nissan Murano. Whether you work for the government or a private company, it never hurts to make an entrance at your workplace in a refined vehicle that has great styling inside and out. The Murano is available with leather appointments and wood-tone accents on the inside and has a sleek exterior that looks great from every angle. Of course, it's not all about looks. You'll also get great performance thanks to a V6 engine that delivers 260 hp.

Even on the base S trim level, you'll get plenty of great standard features, including Intelligent All-Wheel Drive, bright LED headlights, and a 20 cm colour touchscreen display with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility. Even luxurious goodies like heated front seats, dual-zone automatic temperature control, and push-button ignition come standard on the 2023 Murano, so you can get a great interior without spending extra on a higher trim level. Of course, the top-tier Platinum does have its own perks, like a 10-way power-adjustable driver's seat with power lumbar support, a heated steering wheel, and interior ambient lighting.
