Frame & Suspension

Engineered to make every day epic

Midsize trucks see plenty of action. That’s why the all-new Frontier is built up and reinforced in all the right places, with ample ground clearance to climb over big obstacles, and suspension designed to smooth out even the toughest terrain. [[456]]

Full-length, fully boxed frame

No corners were cut with Frontier’s full-length, fully boxed frame. A strong frame is what durability is all about, and Frontier has strength, to the core.

Ground clearance, approach and departure

For maximum ground clearance, approach and departure angles, Frontier’s underside is free of low-hanging components. Plus, the rear suspension comes with leaf springs over the rear axle – not underneath it – so there's even less in the way.

Suspension that performs

Frontier’s suspension is built to handle all the bumps, potholes, rocks and rough patches you can throw at it. For ultimate off-road dampening, Frontier also offers standard Bilstein® shocks. That means extra confidence and control over rugged terrain. [[191]]

Capability & Technology

The future of 4-wheeling

From the selectable 4WD to standard Hill Descent Control, Frontier boasts some serious off-roading credentials. And with new innovations like the available Intelligent Around View® Monitor with Off-Road Mode, you'll be more than ready any journey. It all adds up to more confidence than you've ever felt in a midsize truck. [[232]]

Hill Descent Control

When driving down a steep grade in 4WD, standard Hill Descent Control can help. Just push the button, ease your foot from the accelerator, and this system automatically maintains your speed and brake pressure to help control the descent.

Hill Start Assist

Charge up that mountain. When you start climbing a steep hill, the standard Hill Start Assist system will help keep you from rolling backwards. It holds brake pressure for a few seconds, allowing you time to switch from the brake pedal to the accelerator.

Active Brake Limited Slip

When Frontier detects that a wheel is beginning to lose traction, Active Brake Limited Slip kicks in. This system applies brake pressure to the wheel that's slipping, transferring power to one with a better grip.
