2027 Nissan Frontier Spec Highlights

2027 Nissan Frontier

Find the Frontier That Fits Your Day

A truck can be a commuter on Monday and a way to move larger purchases on Saturday. The 2027 Nissan Frontier is a midsize pickup with a standard 310-horsepower V6, a choice of cab and bed configurations, and technology that supports both parts of the week.

At Petro Nissan in Hattiesburg, you can start by comparing what comes with each configuration rather than paying for equipment you may not need. The S, SV, PRO-X, and PRO-4X offer different combinations of passenger space, convenience, and capability. Nissan builds the Frontier in Canton, Mississippi.

Interior Space for Passengers and Everyday Essentials

The Frontier offers two distinct ways to arrange its cabin. The S King Cab seats four, while the Crew Cab seats five and is available throughout the trim lineup. For a daily routine that includes classmates, coworkers, or family, the Crew Cab's rear-seat space is an important part of the decision—not just the bed behind it.

The Crew Cab provides these measurements:

  • Front legroom: 42.3 inches
  • Rear legroom: 33.2 inches
  • Rear headroom: 38.6 inches
  • Seating: Five passengers

Its 60/40 split rear cushion flips up to make room for items you want inside the cab. SV and PRO Crew Cabs add under-seat storage, and their eight-way power driver's seat makes adjustment easier when drivers share the truck. Heated front seats are available on those trims; compare actual equipment before choosing.

A Bold Exterior With a Useful Bed

The Frontier's squared-off proportions give it a recognizable pickup profile, while two bed lengths let shoppers prioritize cargo length or overall size. The King Cab comes with a long bed; Crew Cab buyers can choose a standard or long bed on eligible trims.

Keep these measurements in mind for parking and loading:

  • King Cab length: 210.2 inches
  • Crew Cab length: 210.2 inches with the standard bed or 224.1 inches with the long bed
  • Crew Cab bed volume: 40.1 cubic feet in the standard bed without a spray-in liner; 49.2 cubic feet in the long bed with its included liner
  • King Cab wheels: 16-inch styled steel wheels

An available Utili-track® system on eligible Crew Cabs uses adjustable cleats to help secure cargo. If you want a different visual character, SV Dark Armor adds gloss-black accents, while the new SV Sport Edition includes black 17-inch wheels, all-terrain tires, and an aluminum skid plate.

The Frontier's 2027 exterior colors include:

  • Alpine Metallic
  • Red Alert
  • Tactical Green Metallic
  • Afterburn Orange
  • Gun Metallic
  • Boulder Gray Pearl
  • Super Black
  • Glacier White
  • Bluestone Pearl

Availability can vary by trim and configuration.

One V6, Multiple Ways to Use It

Every Frontier is powered by a 3.8-liter V6 with 310 horsepower and 281 lb-ft of torque. A nine-speed automatic transmission handles shifting, and buyers can select 4x2 or 4x4 where offered. That shared engine makes cab, drivetrain, and equipment choices especially important when deciding where your money is best spent.

The PRO-X and PRO-4X offer Bilstein suspension components and all-terrain tires for drivers who want more off-pavement equipment. The PRO-X is 4x2 only; the 4x4 PRO-4X adds an electronic locking rear differential. For another option, the Sport Edition package is available on SV 4x2 and 4x4 configurations.

Capacity for Cargo and Trailers

A properly equipped S King Cab 4x2 is rated to tow up to 7,150 pounds and carry up to 1,590 pounds of payload. Those are configuration-specific maximums, not ratings for every Frontier. Trailer Sway Control is standard across the lineup. Before choosing a truck for a trailer or heavy load, check the individual vehicle's ratings and account for passengers, cargo, hitch equipment, and trailer tongue weight.

Connected Features Without the Guesswork

The S King Cab and S or SV 4x2 Crew Cab use an 8-inch touchscreen. The SV 4x4 and PRO Crew Cabs have a 12.3-inch touchscreen, and every Frontier includes a 7-inch Advanced Drive-Assist® Display in the instrument cluster. This makes it worth checking the actual trim and drivetrain when comparing screens.

Five infotainment functions to explore are:

  • Apple CarPlay® compatibility: Use supported iPhone apps; S models connect by cable, while SV and PRO Crew Cabs connect wirelessly
  • Android Auto™ compatibility: Bring supported Android apps to the screen, wired on S and wireless on SV and PRO Crew Cabs
  • Bluetooth® hands-free calling: Pair a compatible phone to manage calls
  • Bluetooth audio streaming: Listen to media from a compatible paired device
  • Siri® Eyes Free: Access supported voice functions with a compatible Apple device

The S Crew Cab includes two front USB ports, while SV and PRO Crew Cabs add two rear ports. An available Qi2-compatible charger is part of the PRO Convenience package. Check device compatibility and service terms for connected functions.

Standard Assistance for Everyday Routes

Driver-assistance equipment is included on every 2027 Frontier, giving shoppers useful technology even at the beginning of the lineup. Five standard features to know are:

  • Intelligent Forward Collision Warning: Alerts the driver to certain detected risks ahead
  • Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection: Can assist with braking in certain potential collision situations
  • Blind Spot Warning: Provides alerts for detected vehicles in monitored adjacent areas
  • Rear Cross Traffic Alert: Alerts the driver to detected crossing traffic while reversing
  • Rear sonar system: Helps identify nearby obstacles when backing up

Intelligent Cruise Control, Lane Departure Warning, Rear Automatic Braking, and High Beam Assist are also standard. Available Intelligent Around View® Monitor on the PRO trims adds perspectives around the truck for maneuvering.
