2026 Nissan Frontier

The 2026 Nissan Frontier is a truck that refuses to back down, built with the rugged heart and heavy-duty backbone necessary to conquer the toughest demands of the Detroit metropolitan area. As your trusted truck authority here at Jeffrey Nissan, serving drivers north of the city in communities like Sterling Heights, Warren, and Troy, we know you need a midsize pickup with uncompromising strength. The Frontier delivers with a powerful V6 engine and a fully boxed ladder frame, making it the definitive choice for hauling equipment to a job site or hitting the trails for serious adventure.

Interior

Step inside the 2026 Frontier, and you’ll find a cabin that expertly blends functionality with new comfort features built for the long haul. Technology is sharp and accessible, centered around a standard 8-inch or available 12.3-inch touchscreen, which includes wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™. For 2026, higher trims now feature standard heated front seats and a heated steering wheel, making those cold Michigan winters much more bearable. The interior is optimized for utility with smart storage solutions, ensuring your gear stays secure and your space remains organized, whether you're working at a site or simply driving through the suburbs.

Exterior

The 2026 Frontier's exterior design is pure power, featuring a muscular build that's bold and undeniably capable. New for this year, all S and SV grades gain standard LED headlamps, improving visibility and giving the truck a modern, sharp appearance. For those who demand an aggressive aesthetic, the new Dark Armor Package adds 17-inch black alloy wheels, darkened badging, and grille accents. The bed is equipped with the available Utili-Track® Channel System, offering adjustable tie-downs, and a maximum payload capacity of up to 1,590 pounds, ensuring you can secure heavy loads with confidence.

Performance

At the heart of every 2026 Frontier is a formidable 3.8-liter V6 engine, unleashing 310 horsepower and 281 lb-ft of torque. This engine is paired with a responsive 9-speed automatic transmission, providing the perfect mix of capability and efficient power delivery. The truck’s fully boxed ladder frame provides superior durability and helps achieve a maximum towing capacity of up to 7,150 pounds when properly equipped. Furthermore, the available Drive Mode Selector offers five settings—including Rock, Sand, and Mud—to maximize traction and control on varying terrain across the state, ensuring reliable performance in any situation.

Safety Features

The 2026 Nissan Frontier is equipped with a comprehensive suite of advanced safety features to keep you protected on the road. Standard on most trims is Nissan Safety Shield® 360, which includes Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection, Blind Spot Warning (BSW), and Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA). For enhanced towing security, the available Intelligent Around View® Monitor provides a critical view with guidelines that make hitch alignment easier than ever. These advanced systems provide a continuous layer of security for every journey, whether you're driving through Detroit traffic or cruising outside the city.
