2026 Nissan Frontier

The 2026 Nissan Frontier is a midsize truck that refuses to yield, built with the rugged heart and heavy-duty backbone necessary to conquer the toughest demands of the Detroit metropolitan area. As your premier truck headquarters here at Tamaroff Nissan, serving drivers north of the city in communities like Roseville, Sterling Heights, Warren, and Troy, we know you need a pickup that doesn't just look the part—it lives it. The 2026 Frontier returns with a bold "facelift" featuring a redesigned front grille and bumper that project raw authority. This is the last of the old-school midsize beasts, powered by a naturally aspirated V6 and supported by a fully boxed ladder frame, making it the definitive choice for hauling equipment to a job site or hitting the muddy trails of Northern Michigan.

Interior

Step inside the 2026 Frontier and you’ll find a cabin that expertly blends utilitarian grit with a massive tech upgrade. For the first time, a high-resolution 12.3-inch touchscreen display is available, giving you a commanding view of your navigation and media. To combat the brutal Michigan winters, the available All-Weather Package bundles heated front seats, a heated steering wheel, and remote engine start, ensuring your cab is a warm sanctuary before you even step outside. Standard Zero Gravity front seats keep you refreshed during long hauls on I-75, while new interior accents like a black headliner and darkened trim pieces provide a sleek, modern edge to this battle-hardened interior.

Exterior

The 2026 Frontier’s exterior is pure muscle, featuring a squared-off front end and an athletic stance that’s ready for a skirmish. All S and SV grades now gain standard LED headlamps for a sharp, contemporary look and superior visibility on dark backroads. The bed is a masterclass in utility, featuring the available Utili-track® Channel System with adjustable tie-downs and a damped assist tailgate that lowers smoothly every time. For those who want to stand out from the pack, the new Afterburn Orange paint and the available Dark Armor Package—with its 17-inch black alloy wheels and darkened badging—ensure this truck looks just as aggressive as it performs.

Performance

Under the hood, the 2026 Frontier is powered by a formidable 3.8-liter V6 engine, unleashing 310 horsepower and 281 lb-ft of torque. This direct-injection powerhouse is paired with a responsive 9-speed automatic transmission, delivering smooth acceleration and the low-speed control you need for technical off-roading. With a maximum towing capacity of up to 7,150 pounds and a payload of up to 1,620 pounds, you’re ready for the heaviest trailers and the biggest projects. For the ultimate trail-rated experience, the PRO-4X trim adds Bilstein® off-road shocks, an electronic locking rear differential, and skid plates to protect your investment from the rough Michigan terrain.

Safety Features

Safety is the standard at Tamaroff Nissan. Every 2026 Frontier comes standard with Nissan Safety Shield® 360, a digital fortress that includes Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection, Blind Spot Warning, and Rear Cross Traffic Alert. New for 2026, the Intelligent Around View® Monitor with Off-Road Mode activates automatically in 4LO, giving you a bird’s-eye view of the trail to help you dodge obstacles. Standard Intelligent Forward Collision Warning looks two cars ahead to anticipate trouble, ensuring that whether you're navigating the traffic of downtown Detroit or the tight spaces of a Roseville job site, you’ve got a co-pilot that never blinks.
