2016 Nissan Frontier

The 2016 Frontier is offered in King Cab and Crew Cab body styles and in 4x2 and 4x4 driveline configurations, along with five trim grades: S (4-cylinder and V6), SV, PRO-4X (4x4 only), Desert Runner (4x2 V6 only) and SL (Crew Cab only).

The exterior of the 2016 Frontier embodies a number of signature Nissan truck themes -- an angled strut grille, large bumpers, short front and rear overhangs and large, stamped-steel geometric fender flares.

Frontier also provides levels of innovation in an area where it matters most to truck owners - the bed. Both Frontier King Cab and Crew Cab offer an available high-utility bed that includes a factory-applied spray-on bedliner and first-in-class Utili-track Channel System.

Frontier King Cab and Crew Cab feature large rear doors (rear hinged on King Cab) for easy access to the rear seating and cargo areas and flip-up rear seats, along with excellent cab storage and flexibility.

The heart of the Frontier is its rugged F-Alpha platform. Starting with a full-size, fully boxed ladder frame, the F-Alpha platform provides a rugged foundation on which to build. Constructed of high tensile-strength steel, the platform provides structural rigidity for rock-solid performance on- and off-road.

Exceptional acceleration, towing capacity and all-around off-roading ability is provided, in large measure, by its powerful engine -- a 4.0-liter V6 producing 261 horsepower and 281 lb-ft of torque. An advanced 2.5-liter 4-cylinder engine delivers 152 horsepower and 171 lb-ft torque.

All key underbody hardware is tucked up to the frame rails for a minimum 8.9 inches (4x4) or 8.6 inches (4x2) of running ground clearance on V6-equipped S, SV, SL and PRO-4X models. Every Frontier also offers good approach and departure angles for exceptional off-road capability. Frontier's maximum towing capacity is rated at up to 6,500 pounds.
