2002 Nissan Frontier Preview summaryImage

For 2002, the Nissan Frontier offered a redesigned intrument panel and an available high-end sound system. More importantly, the standard cab was discontinued, and the Crew Cab was offered with an extended bed, the first crew cab compact truck to ever offer a longer bed. The 2002 Frontier comes in four trims: the XE, the Desert Runner, the fully loaded SE, and the Supercharged model. The trims came in a variety of body styles, including an extended cab (KingCab), the Crew Cab, a short bed, and 4WD. Most Frontiers, except the Crew Cab and Supercharged, came standard with a 2.4-liter, 143-horsepower four-cylinder engine that gets about 20/24 mpg in the standard cab and 18/21 for the extended cab. The Crew Cab came standard with the 3.4-liter, 170-horsepower V6, which got 15/19 mpg and which was optional in the KingCabs. The Supercharged model came with a 3.3-liter 210-horsepower V6, getting about 15/18 mpg. Drivers find the 2002 Nissan Frontier to be a solid, dependable truck that can be had at a good price. Drivers are especially enthusiastic about the Crew Cab Supercharged version. Some drivers find the interior space to be tight.

As a small to midsize truck, the D22 Frontier is an excellent blend of utility, style, functionality, and practicality. It wont win any races, but it will always get the job done. Dec 10, 2020
