The Nissan Frontier is a mid-size pickup truck first introduced in North America in 1997. The Nissan Frontier is a nameplate alternative to the Nissan Navara, and the same truck is available in both names depending on the region. In North America, the Nissan Frontier went by a different name before 1997, the Nissan Hardbody. The name change proved effective as sales of the Nissan Frontier were much more promising than its predecessors.
The Nissan Frontier background
The Nissan Frontier was very much an identical model to its international brothers from 1997 to 2021. During this time, there were two distinct generations described by model numbers D22 and D40. Both trucks were available in two-door and four-door. Additionally, both models could be found with rear-wheel and four-wheel-drive. The Nissan Frontier D40 was introduced in 2004 and remained the North American model, despite international markets introducing a D23 model.
All about the 2022 Nissan Frontier
For the 2022 model year, Nissan made a significant shift by releasing a standalone Nissan Frontier model specifically for the North American market. Not available in international regions, the new Nissan Frontier is larger and developed for the North American lifestyle. Options meant the truck could be expanded even more with crew and king-cab layouts, while the cargo box length is offered in five and six-foot lengths. When searching for a Nissan Frontier for sale, it is worth looking at this latest model that is designed with North American needs in mind, especially with four-wheel-drive being the only option sold in Canada. Meanwhile, these trucks come fitted with a nine-speed automatic transmission and a 3.8L V6 engine on top of four available trim levels.
