Is the 2022 Nissan Frontier a good car?

Yes — the 2022 Nissan Frontier earns a 4.66/5 user rating and an 8.33/10 expert rating. The standout strength is Technology at 10/10.

The trade-offs are familiar for a midsize truck: heavy steering and poor fuel economy. The overview also points to rear seat space as a limitation, so it fits you best if you value a comfortable, well-equipped truck more than maximum refinement.

Is the 2022 Nissan Frontier reliable?

Owners rate it 4.66/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

Owner feedback also points to the Frontier as a dependable, trouble-free choice for many shoppers, with some drivers describing it as a solid long-term upgrade. The expert review reinforces that impression by emphasizing the truck’s strong value and capable, work-ready character.

Nissan also includes a maintenance perk in the ownership experience through the broader value proposition described in the review. For used buyers, the main long-term risk is that mixed reliability sentiment means you should be especially careful about maintenance history and prior use.

What should I look for when buying a used 2022 Nissan Frontier?

Accident-free inventory is solid at 86.7% — always verify the vehicle history report.

You should still check the history report carefully, because accident-free listings are common but not universal. A pre-purchase inspection matters here, especially if you’re considering a truck that may have been used for towing, commuting, or off-road driving. Focus on overall condition, tire wear, brake wear, and signs of hard use.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The lowest trim uses an 8-inch touchscreen, while the next step up keeps that screen size and the off-road-focused trim gets a 9-inch display. The off-road-ready trim also adds charcoal leather seating, while the 2WD version keeps the styling cues but drops some hardware.
• Powertrain: The truck uses a 3.8-liter V6 with 310 horsepower and 281 pound-feet of torque, paired with a nine-speed automatic and available RWD or 4WD. It also includes tow mode, and fuel economy is not a strong point.
• Safety package: Nissan Safety Shield 360 includes automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, a driver attention monitor, intelligent forward collision warning, trailer sway control, rear-door alert, and an easy-fill tire alert. The Technology Package adds blind-spot warning, rear cross traffic alert, rear automatic emergency braking, and adaptive cruise control.
• Infotainment: A standard 8-inch touchscreen is fitted to the lower trims, while the off-road trim gets a 9-inch screen. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are standard, but they require a wired connection, and wireless projection is not supported.
• Fuel efficiency: Rear-wheel-drive models are rated at 18 mpg city, 24 highway, 20 combined, while four-wheel-drive models are rated at 17/22/19. The review also cites 19-mpg combined fuel economy.

Which 2022 Nissan Frontier trim should I buy?

The 2022 Nissan Frontier is offered in 3 trim levels: S, SV, PRO-4X.

Here's the short version:

• S: This is the entry point, and it gives you the Frontier’s core strengths at the lowest price. It comes with the standard 8-inch touchscreen and the full Safety Shield 360 suite, so it covers the basics well if you want value first.
• SV: This is the best-value trim for most shoppers because it keeps the standard tech and adds more everyday flexibility, including the option for a 6-foot bed on Crew Cab models. If you want a balanced truck without paying for the off-road hardware, this is the trim to target.
• PRO-4X: This is the one to buy if you want the Frontier’s off-road character. It adds the 9-inch screen, Bilstein shocks, skid plates, an electronic locking rear differential, hill-descent control, hill-start assist, and a surround-view monitor with off-road mode.

Safety Shield 360 is standard, while the Technology Package adds blind-spot warning, rear cross traffic alert, rear automatic emergency braking, and adaptive cruise control.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2022 Nissan Frontier?

This is a moderate market for selective buyers, so you can shop with some leverage if you’re patient.

• Deal availability: 33.5% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 2,401 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 5.90% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 86.7% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $26,842, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2022 Nissan Frontier's resale value?

The current average of $27,179 sits slightly below last year's $28,885.

That price movement suggests the Frontier has already absorbed some of its recent market softening, which can help future sellers if demand stays steady. A lower current entry price can also make the truck easier to move later, especially if you keep mileage and condition in check.

Because the model still has strong owner satisfaction, it should remain appealing to used-truck shoppers who want value and capability. Well-kept examples are likely to hold buyer interest better than trucks with visible wear or uncertain history.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.66/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2022 Nissan Frontier safe?

The 2022 Nissan Frontier hasn’t been crash-tested yet by either major agency, so there isn’t a published crash-test result to anchor on.

It earns a 7/10 safety score from our experts.

Nissan Safety Shield 360 is standard and includes automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, a driver attention monitor, intelligent forward collision warning, trailer sway control, rear-door alert, and an easy-fill tire alert. Eight airbags also come standard, and the Technology Package adds blind-spot warning, rear cross traffic alert, rear automatic emergency braking, and adaptive cruise control.

Should I buy a 2022 Nissan Frontier or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2022 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2022 if:

• 33.5% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is solid at 86.7% — always verify the vehicle history report.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 5.90% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.66/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• The 2022 brings a redesigned truck feel with a much-improved cabin and strong off-road capability.

Consider the 2023 if:

• At $32,228, the 2023 costs more than the current year's $27,179 average.
• It adds only minor tweaks and more standard features.

The bottom line: If you want the better value play, the 2022 is the smarter buy because it combines a lower average price with strong owner satisfaction and a fresh redesign. If you’re willing to pay more for a slightly newer truck with minor updates, the 2023 is the secondary path.
