Is the Nissan Frontier the Best Truck for Outdoors?

The Nissan Frontier is all-new for 2022, and it is a potent midsize truck perfect for outdoor adventures. The face of the truck is bold and upright, giving it an imposing stance, with LED lights that flawlessly illuminate the road ahead.

Our team at Maus Nissan of North Tampa delves into what makes the Nissan Frontier the best midsize truck for the outdoors. Let’s go!

Exterior Upgrades to the Nissan Frontier

The Nissan Frontier comes with two bed options, one that is 5-foot and one that is 6-foot. The tailgate has a soft opening mechanism that enables it to lower without crashing down. The integrated bump step near the rear license plate helps with easy loading and unloading in the bed.

The bed also includes a 120-volt power outlet and overheard cargo lights which can illuminate the bed in dark conditions. The Frontier is also outfitted with three Utili-track channels which allow owners to store items with ease, and four tie-down points hold everything in place. Perfect for an off-road adventure to go camping!

Interior Upgrades to the Nissan Frontier

The interior of the Frontier is equipped with sound-insulating material, which can block out much of the exterior noise and give a sense of calmness when you are driving down the trail.

There is a 9-inch touchscreen unit that houses the multimedia and navigation functions, along with other connectivity features. The driver’s MID displays off-road gauges, tire pressure monitors, and real-time fuel efficiency as well.

Apple CarPlay comes standard, as well as dual-zone climate control, and wireless charging for your smart devices. Further, a Fender premium sound system is a terrific addition for long drives.

If you want to tow a pop-up camper or a fishing boat for a weekend in the great outdoors, the 2022 Frontier has been rated at 6,720 lbs. and the max payload capacity is 1,610 lbs.

It also comes with a 360-degree parking camera that makes latching a trailer behind the Frontier effortless. For added convenience on the road, there is Tow haul mode, and trailer sway control to keep the vehicle, trailer, and occupants safer.
