Vehicle Highlights
Redesigned for 2004, Quest had the longest wheelbase and overall length of any minivan. The original Quest, offered from 1993-2001, was a clone of the Mercury Villager and among the smallest minivans. The new Quest was sold only as a Nissan and came in S, SL, and SE models. All used a 240-hp V6 and automatic transmission. S and SL had a 4-speed automatic and 16-inch wheels, the SE a 5 speed and 17s. All seated seven with the available Seat Package, and had dual sliding side doors. Standard were ABS, traction control, tire-pressure monitor, and curtain side airbags for all three seating rows. Front side airbags and an antiskid system were available. A seven-passenger seating package included 2nd-row bucket seats that folded toward the floor and a 3rd-row bench that folded into the floor. With those seats folded, Nissan claimed a 4x8 sheet of plywood would lie flat on the floor. Available features included a full-length overhead console with air vents and reading lights, Nissan's Skyview roof (four overhead glass roof panels), rear-obstacle detection, and DVD entertainment with one or two screens. Also offered were power-adjustable brake and accelerator pedals, power seat/pedal/mirror memory, heated front seats, leather upholstery, and a navigation system.
