Nissan Frontier
The midsize pickup segment is booming. While the Frontier doesn't offer much in the way of mechanical diversity with its old-fashioned 3.8-litre V6, it does have a number of attributes that set it apart from its rivals. For example, the Frontier offers two cab sizes (King and Crew) in addition to two wheelbase and bed lengths. Styling and equipment revisions have been made for 2025 including a new 12.3-inch infotainment touchscreen. Towing capacities have increased by around 500 lbs on all models.
