2021 Frontier Powertrain Details and Standard Features

Here at Palm Springs Nissan in Cathedral City, CA, we know trucks. With excellent models like the Frontier and the Titan, Nissan has some of the best trucks on market. One of the most sought after features in the truck is a 4×4 or 4WD drivetrain.

Does the 2021 Frontier have standard 4×4? Take a look.



Powertrain Options

The 2021 Nissan Frontier standard drivetrain depends on trim. RWD is standard on the S and SV trim, while 4×4 is standard on the Pro-4X trim. 4×4 is an available option for the S and SV as well. All 2021 Frontier models are powered by a 3.8L V6 and a nine-speed automatic transmission. The engine produces 310 horsepower and 281 lb-ft of torque. When properly equipped, the 2021 Frontier can pull up to 6,720 lbs and haul 1,460 lbs in the box. Configurations capable of maximum towing and hauling are the S RWD and SV RWD. For best off-road capability, though, the Pro-4X is recommended. It comes with hill descent control, a locking rear differential, and a limited-slip system.

Available Packages

There are two packages available on the 2021 Nissan Frontier. Both are only available on the SV Crew Cab trim. Check below to see what they add.

  • Midnight Edition – 18-inch gloss black wheels, all-season tires, gloss black painted grille, a body-colored rear bumper, black exterior rearview mirrors, semi-gloss black carline badging, Midnight Edition low-glass black badging
  • Special Edition – trip computer, 18-inc aluminum-alloy wheels, a satin chrome grille, a body-colored rear bumper, and bodyside detail
