Vehicle Overview
Nissan has the longest history in the U.S. among import automakers of selling compact and midsize pickup trucks. Its current midsize truck, the Frontier, is available with a choice of four-cylinder or V-6 power and rear- or four-wheel drive. It comes as an extended-cab (King Cab) truck with rear-hinged rear doors or as a four-door crew cab. King Cabs have a 6-foot cargo bed and crew cabs are available with a 4.75- or 6-foot bed.
With seating for four or five, depending on the cab style, the Frontier competes with the Chevrolet Colorado, GMC Canyon and Toyota Tacoma.
