Nissan Frontier
The 2025 Nissan Frontier is available in both King Cab and Crew Cab configurations, with multiple trim levels to suit diverse needs. The lineup consists of S, SV, PRO-X, PRO-4X, and SL models, with most versions offering a choice between rear-wheel drive or part-time 4-wheel drive systems.
Power comes exclusively from a 3.8-liter V6 engine producing 310 horsepower and 281 lb.-ft of torque. This capable powerplant pairs with a 9-speed automatic transmission across all models, delivering responsive acceleration and capable towing capacity.
The truck's suspension architecture features a double wishbone design up front and over-slung leaf springs in the rear, engineered to balance everyday comfort with serious work capability. For enhanced off-road ability, Frontier 4X4 models include hill descent control and hill start assist systems. All Frontier variants benefit from an active brake limited-slip system that enhances traction and stability in challenging conditions.
Interior accommodation varies by body style, with King Cab models featuring rear-hinged back doors and flip-up rear seats that accommodate occasional passengers. Crew Cab versions offer four full-size doors and adult-friendly rear seating with easy entry and exit. Storage solutions abound, including under-seat compartments in King Cab models and a center console design that maximizes utility. Crew Cab configurations come with either a standard-length bed or a long bed option for increased cargo capacity.
The Frontier shares its underlying frame structure with the larger Titan pickup, providing robust capability in a mid-size package. Critical components including brake lines are protected within the frame rails, while 4X4 models offer at least 8.9-inches of ground clearance for off-road adventures.
The base S model comes well-equipped with 16-inch wheels, automatic headlamps, a 7-inch driver information display, an 8-inch touchscreen with apple CarPlay and android auto integration, and a rear-view camera. Safety features include ten airbags, forward collision automatic braking with pedestrian detection, and driver attention alert.
Stepping up to the SV adds body-colored exterior elements, power mirrors, 16-inch aluminum wheels, premium cloth seating surfaces, a power driver's seat, and additional instrumentation.
The PRO-X model enhances the truck's capabilities and appearance with Bilstein shock absorbers, fender flares, and all-terrain tires. Additional features include LED lighting, dual-zone automatic climate control, a 9-inch touchscreen with navigation, and a leather-wrapped steering wheel.
The off-road focused PRO-4X builds upon the PRO-X with the addition of three skid plates and a driver-selectable electronic locking rear differential for enhanced capability in challenging terrain.
At the top of the range, the SL trim offers leather seating surfaces, 17-inch machined alloy wheels, a Fender Premium Audio system with ten speakers, and additional comfort and convenience features including heated seats, a heated steering wheel, and an intelligent around-view monitor.
The 2025 Frontier continues to blend tough truck capability with modern technology and comfort features, making it a compelling choice in the mid-size pickup segment.
