2020 Nissan Frontier Trims Comparison
2020 Frontier trim level differences
The 2020 Nissan Frontier is available in King Cab (extended cab) or four-door crew-cab body styles in S, SV and Pro-4X trim levels. The standard bed length is 5 feet; Nissan offers a 6.1-foot bed for the crew-cab SV. All Frontiers are powered by a 3.8-liter V6 (310 horsepower, 281 lb-ft of torque) that's connected to a nine-speed automatic transmission. Rear-wheel drive is standard, and four-wheel drive is an option.
Which 2020 Frontier trim does Edmunds recommend?
We think the SV is the best all-arounder of the Frontier's lineup. It gives you the most flexibility for configuration (it's the only trim to offer the 6.1-foot cargo bed, for instance) and it's more affordably priced than the decked-out Pro-4X.
