Reliability, safety and power on the road, that's what this Nissan Frontier 2022, the new generation of the Japanese pick-up, which is loaded with many new features designed to travel the best roads, and face the most hostile terrain off-road.

Exterior

The new exterior design is very appealing. The body leaves behind the rounded shapes to get closer to polygonal shapes, with a new set of D-shaped main lights, with DRL technology on the upper and lower edges and LED technology for the main lighting. The black grille is highlighted by the new metal plates that protect the lower part of the vehicle on the PRO-4X version, which we tested.

Increased safety

On the safety aspect, technology is also incorporated in all versions of this pickup, such as the front collision and the intelligent peripheral vision monitor of the Japanese brand. In addition, all versions incorporate the Traffic Sign Recognition System and the innovative Nissan Safety Shield 360 safety system, which among other things incorporates automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, automatic reverse braking, rear cross-traffic alert, blind spot alert, lane change alert and high beam assistant.
