All-New 2022 Nissan Frontier vs. Toyota Tacoma
If you are thinking about buying a new truck, there are lots of great options on the market. Two popular options are the 2022 Nissan Frontier and the Toyota Tacoma. Both of these vehicles have been around for quite a long time and earned an excellent reputation. The 2022 Nissan Frontier, however, has had a significant update to almost every aspect of its design, giving it a more modern and bolder look. Learning about these two great vehicles will help you to choose which is right for you.
Comparing Engines
When shopping for a truck, one of the most important things to consider is the engines available and how much power they have. In this area, both the Frontier and the Tacoma are quite impressive. The new Frontier boasts an impressive 3.8-liter V6 that generates 310 horsepower. The Tacoma, on the other hand, will give you multiple options to choose from, none of which are as powerful as the Frontier. The most powerful engine for the Tacoma is a 3.5-liter V6 with 278 horsepower.
Comparing Technology and Features
There is no doubt that both the Frontier and the Tacoma are impressive when it comes to the technology they use and the features that drivers will have available. The fact is, however, that the Tacoma has had relatively few changes since its 2016 refresh. The Frontier, on the other hand, was entirely redesigned in 2022 giving it lots of modern tech. The main center touchscreen, for example, comes with either an 8 or a 9-inch display. With the Tacoma, you will have either a 7 or an 8-inch display. It is these types of little things that really make the Frontier stand out.
Pricing and Value
These two vehicles are in the same general price range, with the entry level trim packages starting in the upper $20k range and the highest end feature packages setting you back somewhere in the mid-$40k range. If you are only looking to save money, you can get the 4-cylinder Tacoma for a few thousand less than the entry level Frontier, but you will be giving up a lot of power and other features.
Which One is Right for You?
Both of these trucks have a lot to offer, but with the all-new design, it is hard to argue that the Tacoma is better than the Frontier in 2022. Of course, whenever shopping for a new vehicle, there is no substitute for a test drive. Contact our sales team at (970) 394-3442 to schedule an appointment so you can come and take a brand-new Nissan Frontier out on the road.

Nissan Disaster Relief Program – Marshall Fire
Marshall Fire Disaster Relief Program
Our team here at Fort Collins Nissan is devastated by all of the damage sustained by our Boulder County neighbors. During the Marshall Fire on December 30, 2021, life changed for so many people. Living in Colorado, we are no strangers to natural disasters. We have seen may wildfires over the years. While it’s never easy to see, this most recent fire burning through such densely populated neighborhoods right after the holidays, was even more difficult to witness. Many of our customers, friends and colleagues live in the affected areas of Superior and Lafayette.
So many of our neighbors lost everything. There is nothing we can do to bring back all of the memories lost in those homes. However, Nissan would like to help those whose vehicles were lost or damaged due to this tragic event. Through Nissan North America’s Disaster Relief Program, eligible customers can take advantage of VPP employee pricing on Nissan vehicles. If a vehicle has been damaged or deemed a total loss, individuals and businesses can receive this discounted pricing typically reserved for Nissan employees.
There is never a good time to experience this type of tragic event. For those who will need to replace vehicles, now is a particularly hard time because of the widespread vehicle inventory shortage. Our hope is that this discounted employee pricing will be of some assistance to those who are just hoping to get some parts of their life back to normal.
Discounts for First Responders
We also want to extend our deepest gratitude to all of the first responders. We appreciate those who risk their lives to save others every day. All First Responders, as well as Military Personnel and Health Care Workers, can take advantage of 15% off their service visit at Fort Collins Nissan. Click here for more details.
Contact Us
If you were affected by the Marshall Fire and would like more information on how to qualify for our employee pricing program, please contact us. Give us a call at (970) 394-3442 or stop by Fort Collins Nissan any time at 5811 S College Ave. Fort Collins, CO 80525. We are here to assist you in any way we can!

3 Reasons to Shop at a Used Car Dealership
One of the biggest decisions you’ll make during the used car buying experience is figuring out where you’ll be shopping. Do you plan to buy from a private seller, or will you go through our used car dealership in Fort Collins, CO? Believe it or not, it’s much better for you, as a buyer, to shop at a used car dealership for the following reasons:
- You have more options to choose from
Used car dealerships have large inventories filled with a variety of vehicle types. Whether you need a small sedan, a large pickup truck, or a midsize SUV, you’ll have a much easier time finding your dream car when you shop at a dealership rather than a private seller.
- You can finance used vehicles at a dealership
Are you on a tight budget but need a car right away? Thanks to financing, you can put a small amount of money down on a vehicle purchase and then pay off the rest in installments. With private sellers, you usually have to pay the full vehicle cost upfront, which can be tricky if you’re trying to stick to a budget. Financing is also an excellent way to help you build and strengthen your credit, which is all the more reason to shop at a used car dealership.
- Your purchase is protected
A lot of private owners will sell their car “as-is,” meaning that once the title is in your name and you drive away, the car is 100% your responsibility. With many used car dealerships, you can have peace of mind knowing that your purchase is protected. If you find out something is wrong with the car, you can call up the dealership and work with them to figure out your options.

What to Expect from the 2022 Nissan Frontier
The moment we’ve all be waiting for is coming soon! The highly anticipated, all new 2022 Nissan Frontier will make its way to Fort Collins, Colorado and hopefully into your driveway later this summer. Production has just started at the Nissan Assembly Plant in Canton, Mississippi and we can’t wait to see them in person.
Exterior Design
First, let’s talk design. The Nissan Frontier has sported the same body style since 2005. While it has stood the test of time quite well, most of us are ready to see a change after 16 years! We think Nissan completely nailed it with this re-design. It looks much more rugged with some subtle nods at the original Nissan Hardbody design. The aggressive front end with warrior style grille, chiseled hood and C-shaped LED headlights and daytime running lights is a big departure from previous generations. The rugged look is complimented by the wide, elevated stance and vertical fenders. Everything is modernized, both inside and out. There will be a wide array of color options, including the new Boulder Gray that we’ve seen on Rogue and Murano.
Interior
Inside, the modernized approach continues. The 2022 Frontier offers a best in class 9” touchscreen with standard Apple Car Play and Android Auto. It also has a largest in class 7” drier assist display, which is fully configurable to offer the info you care about most, which can change depending on your driving conditions. Whether you need to parallel park or are hitting tight trails, the Around View Monitor with off-road mode allows you to navigate without a second set of eyes. Just like on the exterior, there are some new color options on the interior, like Sandstone and the Pro 4-X Charcoal Gray with Lava Red accents throughout. Zero gravity seats now come standard as well, which provide lateral support and help reduce driver fatigue. Additional available tech includes built in WiFi, wireless charging and Fender premium audio. Added insulation throughout creates a quieter ride than ever before.
Capability
Mechanically, the 2022 Nissan Frontier comes standard with a 3.8L direct injections V6 engine with best in class 310 horsepower and 281 lb-ft torque! The 9 speed automatic transmission helps maximize powertrain efficiency and enhances acceleration. The ride is smoother thanks to a new rear stabilizer bar and hydraulic cab mounts. The new Frontier offers a maximum towing capacity of 6720 lb with standard trailer sway control on all models. If you need to haul but not enough to tow, take advantage of 1,610 lb max payload. Once you he’d into the bed, you’ll enjoy the previous loved spray in bed liner and useful utili-track system, and you’ll be sure to appreciate the new built in bed step, bed lights and 120v outlets.
Safety
Whether your truck is for work, play, or combination of both, you can drive the 2022 Frontier with confidence, knowing you have Nissan Safety Shield 360, which is available on every trim. This suite of advanced safety features includes Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection, Blind Spot Warning, High Beam Assist, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, lane Departure Warning and Rear Automatic Braking.
They say you shouldn’t fix what’s not broken, which is likely why we’ve seen so few chances in the Frontier over the past 16 years. However, Nissan really took this wonderful midsize truck to an entirely new level with this redesign! Stay tuned for release date, but we expect to see the 2022 Nissan Frontier here at Fort Collins Nissan late Summer 2021! Please feel free to reach out to our sales department if you have any questions in the meantime or shop the current generation Frontier here!
