1997 Nissan Quest Recommendations

Identical to the Mercury Villager except for minor styling details and varying levels of standard equipment, Nissans front-drive minivan was its first since its slow-selling midengine, rear-drive model of the late 80s. Two models were initially available--the base XE and the premium GXE. The XE came with either seating for five or seven passengers, and the GXE was available only with seating for seven. Both are propelled by Nissans 151-horsepower, 3.0-liter V6, coupled to a 4-speed automatic transmission. Four-wheel antilock brakes were standard.
