Nissan might be better known for their family SUVs, but with the Frontier, they’ve made a pickup that packs a powerful punch. Here are the key highlights of the 2023 release.

Characterful Exterior Design

It can be hard for a mid-size truck to stand out from the crowd, but the Frontier’s exterior has a character that sets it apart from its competition. The chunky front end is built using angled plates that combine ruggedness with confident style, while the optional 17-inch wheels add a sporty touch to hint at the Frontier’s significant off-road prowess.

Powerful Workhorse Engineering

For a mid-size truck, the 2023 Nissan Frontier delivers a generous amount of power under the hood. All models in the lineup are based around a 3.8L V6 gas engine pushing out a mammoth 310 horsepower and 281lb-ft of torque, an ample output for almost any everyday pickup task. A nine-speed automatic transmission is standard, designed with gear ratios optimized for smooth acceleration and effortless towing, and feeding all-wheel drive on every model.

Class-Leading Towing Capacity

To complement the raw power of the engine, the 2023 Frontier offers one of the highest towing capacities in the mid-size pickup class, with a maximum of 2,950kg in trailer weight putting many famous truck nameplates to shame. Add this to the maximum 636kg of cargo capacity in the 186cm bed, and you’ve got a highly capable truck that can tackle tough worksite duties with ease.

Off-Road Ready

While many trucks proclaim to be off-road contenders, the Frontier is the real deal, with several extra features that make it ideal for hitting the trail. Hill descent control and hill start assist make traversing steep gradients a breeze, while high ground clearance and an enhanced suspension with Bilstein shocks mean even the rockiest terrains pose no challenge.

For even greater off-road prowess, optional accessories include multiple step rails for easier access to the cab, roof, and bed, a bed-mounted sport bar with integrated LED lights, and Beadlock-style 17-inch alloy wheels with signature PRO-4X mudflaps.

Infotainment and Connectivity

The Frontier might be built for rugged performance, but the interior boasts a suite of technology to rival any high-end family SUV. Every model is equipped with a touchscreen display for accessing the infotainment functions, measuring 8 inches on the lower trims or 9 inches higher up in the range. Smartphone integration is handled by Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, with Bluetooth streaming and voice control both standard.

Available upgrades include a wireless charging pad, a Wi-Fi hotspot facility, and Nissan’s advanced Door-to-Door navigation system that can provide walking directions to complete your journey after parking.

State-of-the-Art Safety and Driver Assist Systems

The advanced tech level continues into the suite of active safety and driver-assist systems provided as standard. Key features include:

• Intelligent emergency braking to prevent forward collisions or reduce their impact, with both vehicle and pedestrian detection
• Blind-spot warnings for safer lane changes
• Rear automatic braking to protect your bumpers
• Lane-departure warnings with steering wheel feedback
• Intelligent cruise control for effortless highway driving
