How much does the 2022 Nissan Frontier cost?

Prices have softened 7.03% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 2,338 listings available, which gives you a solid amount of inventory to compare.

Is the 2022 Nissan Frontier a good car?

Yes — the 2022 Nissan Frontier earns a 4.7/5 user rating and an 8.3/10 expert rating. The standout strength is Technology at 10/10.

Owners consistently praise its design, comfort, and power, and they also highlight the roomy cabin and upgraded interior. The Frontier’s updated styling and strong value for money fit especially well if you want a midsize pickup that feels fresh without losing its truck roots. The main trade-offs are heavy steering and poor fuel economy, which can make it less relaxed in daily driving and less efficient than you might want.

Good and great deals account for 35.6% of listings, so there’s still a meaningful share of competitively priced trucks to consider.

Is the 2022 Nissan Frontier reliable?

Owners rate it 4.7/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

User feedback points to a truck that feels solid, comfortable, and powerful, with many owners describing it as a dependable upgrade. The expert review also emphasizes the Frontier’s strong powertrain and its ability to handle work and trail duty with confidence. Nissan’s Safety Shield 360 suite adds a broad set of standard driver aids, which supports everyday confidence and long-term peace of mind.

For used buyers, the main ownership risk is that some shoppers still have mixed feelings about reliability compared with rivals, so a careful history check matters.

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

Accident-free inventory is solid at 84.6% — always verify the vehicle history report.

You should still check for prior damage, confirm maintenance records, and pay close attention to how the truck drives on a test route. Focus on steering feel, cabin condition, and any signs of hard use, especially if the truck was used for towing or off-road driving.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The Frontier’s trim spread includes clear equipment gaps, with the lowest trims getting the smaller touchscreen and fewer premium touches. Higher trims add more upscale cabin materials and off-road-oriented equipment, so you should compare feature content carefully before deciding.
• Powertrain: The truck uses a 3.8-liter V6 with 310 horsepower and a nine-speed automatic, and it’s available with rear-wheel drive or four-wheel drive. It delivers strong acceleration and highway passing power, but fuel economy is poor.
• Safety package: 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. The Technology Package adds blind-spot warning, rear cross traffic alert, rear automatic emergency braking, and adaptive cruise control.
• Infotainment: The lowest S and one-step-up SV trims get an 8-inch touchscreen, while PRO-4X 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, and 20 combined, while four-wheel-drive models are rated at 17/22/19. The review also notes a 19-mpg combined fuel economy rating.

Which 2022 Nissan Frontier trim should I buy?

The 2022 Nissan Frontier is offered in 5 trim levels: S, SV, PRO-X, PRO-4X, and PRO-4X.

Here's the short version:

• S: This is the entry point, and it makes sense if you want the lowest-cost way into the redesigned Frontier. It gets the standard 8-inch touchscreen and the core safety suite, but it’s the most basic version of the truck.
• SV: This is the best-value trim for most shoppers because it adds more everyday usability while keeping the Frontier’s strong value proposition intact. It also keeps the 8-inch screen, so you’re not paying extra just for infotainment size.
• PRO-X: Choose this if you like the PRO-4X look but don’t need four-wheel drive or the full off-road hardware. It keeps the styling cues while dropping the locking differential and skid plates.
• PRO-4X: This is the trim to buy if you want the Frontier’s real off-road capability. It adds the 9-inch screen and the trail-focused hardware, including hill-start assist, hill-descent control, an electronic locking rear differential, skid plates, and off-road monitor functionality.

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 looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop carefully and still find decent value.

• Deal availability: 35.6% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 2,338 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 7.03% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 84.6% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $26,060, 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 $26,060 sits slightly below last year's $28,030.

That decline suggests the Frontier has become more affordable for used buyers, which can help future sellers by keeping the truck accessible to a wider pool of shoppers. At the same time, the softer pricing means you should expect some depreciation pressure if you buy now and plan to resell later. Strong equipment, a fresh redesign, and solid owner satisfaction can help support demand over time.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.7/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2022 Nissan Frontier safe?

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

The new truck offers a broad standard safety suite under Nissan Safety Shield 360, including 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 Nissan offers traffic sign recognition, adaptive cruise control, lane departure warning, rear sonar, and the Technology Package features as optional equipment.

The available Technology Package adds blind-spot warning, rear cross traffic alert, rear automatic emergency braking, and adaptive cruise control. Crash-test results were not yet available in the source material, so you should still check for the latest ratings before buying.

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:

• 35.6% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is solid at 84.6% — always verify the vehicle history report.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 7.03% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.7/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• It brings a redesigned cabin, strong value, and real off-road capability.

Consider the 2023 if:

• At $31,310, the 2023 costs more than the current year's $26,060 average.
• It adds a few minor standard-feature updates.

The bottom line: If you want the better value, 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 version with minor updates, the 2023 is the alternative to consider.
