The midsize pickup segment sometimes gets short shrift, since when we talk trucks in these parts, we’re often talking about the all-new 2016 Nissan Titan. But even if it doesn’t get as much press as its full-size sibling, that doesn’t mean that it doesn’t deserve recognition all the same. So let’s give the 2016 Nissan Frontier the press it deserves, with this look at some its specs and features.
It would be foolhardy to assume that every driver demands the same thing from his or her purchase, and that’s why the 2016 Nissan Frontier is offered with the choice of two awesome powertrains. Standard for the new model year is a 2.5L inline four-cylinder engine that beckons to the daily commuter; it offers an excellent 23 highway mpg and 182 hp, resulting in a ride that is smooth and composed. However, if you’re looking to kick up the power a little bit, you might want to opt for the available 4.0L V6, which purrs with a potent 261 hp, 281 lb-ft of torque and a 6,500-pound towing capacity.
Our opinion might be slightly biased, but that doesn’t make it any less valid. The cargo bed of the 2016 Nissan Frontier uses the first-in-its-class Utili-Track cargo-carrying system, allowing users to keep cumbersome items in place using channels on the bed floor and four aluminum cleats. Nothing rolls around during travel, contributing to the overall peace of mind of the driver.

Every bit as important as cargo and performance is the experience of the passenger, and that’s why the Frontier offers one of the finest in its class. With two different cab styles and seating for up to five adults, the Frontier can be adapted to suit your needs or lifestyle. Meanwhile, the King Cab’s doors swing wide to make loading and unloading easier, while the rear seat is a 60/40 split flip-up bench, meaning taller items can be stowed as well.

A modern truck is only as good as its tech features, and that’s a good thing for Frontier buyers. The Frontier offers the NissanConnect Apps interface, which makes streaming music, accessing turn-by-turn navigation, using your phone, or even checking social media a cinch. And since all of this can be performed on its crystal-clear center touchscreen (which doubles as the monitor for the available rearview camera), it proves to be well-rounded in the technological realm as well.
The 2016 Nissan Frontier is now available at Avondale Nissan, and we’d love to show it to you. Schedule your test drive today!
