The 2023 Frontier is available in four trims: S, SV, PRO-X, and PRO-4X, and can be had as a King Cab and Crew Cab, both in 4x2 and 4x4. This means that there's a model to suit various needs. All models use the same 3.8-liter naturally-aspirated V6 and nine-speed automatic combination. The 4x2 models send their power to the rear wheels only, while 4x4 models come with a two-speed transfer case with 2WD, 4WD high, and 4WD low range.
All models come as standard with air conditioning, cruise control, remote keyless entry with a push-button start, two 12-volt interior power outlets, a rearview camera, and forward-collision warning with automatic emergency braking. SV trim adds premium upholstery, a power-adjustable front seat, and more available packages. The top-spec PRO models get a larger touchscreen infotainment system, off-road tires, and Bilstein shock absorbers to give them some genuine off-road ability.
All models have access to the Technology Package, including lane departure warning, blind-spot warning, rear cross-traffic alert, rear park assist, automatic rear braking, high beam assist, and intelligent cruise control. The Convenience Package for SV and PRO models adds practicality items like adjustable tie-down cleats and a 120-volt socket for the bed, heated side mirrors, heated front seats, and steering wheel, remote start, a trailer hitch with a wiring harness, halogen fog lights, and dual-zone climate control to name just a few. You can also ramp up the luxury levels by opting for the Premium Package on SV and PRO models at a few thousand bucks, which includes a Fender premium sound system with ten speakers, leatherette upholstery, a HomeLink remote, auto-dimming rearview mirror, LED interior lighting, LED fog lights, headlights, and daytime running lights, and an auto-tilt and slide sunroof. On the PRO models, this adds leather upholstery, a Fender ten-speaker sound system, premium door trim, an auto-tilt and slide sunroof, and 17-inch dark beadlock-style alloy wheels.
