Nissan Frontier

Nissan Frontier Overview

The Nissan Frontier is a mid-size pickup truck that, relative to a full-size truck, offers great cargo hauling and off-road capabilities, and is easy-to-drive.

Nissan Frontier History

Introduced in 1998, the Nissan Frontier is rugged, durable, and has had surprising longevity. After the second generation was introduced in 2005, more changes were made under the hood than to the frame.

How It Drives

Though the engine may have been a great choice in 2005, a 2.4L four-cylinder engine has not stood the test of time. Thankfully, with updates to more powerful engines available, any used model can be improved to suit today's standards and be more competitive against other trucks.

Used Nissan Frontier Value

The Nissan Frontier is an economic and popular choice for consumers who need towing capability regularly, but do not need the full-size pickup to do it. Due to the lack of performance updates and outdated design, the Nissan Frontier is losing ground to the likes of the Toyota Tacoma and the Chevrolet Colorado.

Nissan Frontier Standard Features

Nissan Frontier models come standard with 2.4L four-cylinder engines. For anyone seeking more towing capacity, the 3.3L V6 engine was a solid upgrade option. All-wheel drive is standard, as is automatic transmission.
