2022 Nissan Frontier vs. 2022 Toyota Tacoma

The Nissan Frontier and Toyota Tacoma are comparable in many ways. Both of these midsize pickup trucks debuted in the 90s, have earned reputations as trusted and reliable, and both sell at near-identical price points.

But how do the base trims of these trucks compare when it comes to the finer details?

2022 Nissan Frontier vs. 2022 Toyota Tacoma

The first thing most truck lovers will compare is engine size and performance. The 2022 Tacoma comes with a 3.5-liter V6 that generates 278 horsepower and 265 lb.-ft. of torque. The Frontier, however, packs more under the hood with a 3.8-liter V6 engine generating 310 horsepower and 281 lb.-ft. of torque.

Bed size is also important to truck drivers, and the bed in the Frontier is slightly wider and deeper than that of the Tacoma despite the overall body of the Frontier having shorter, narrower, and more compact dimensions. The Frontier also features more rear legroom than the Tacoma, with 50/50 rear seat folding being included as well.

Technology is a mixed bag between the models but the Frontier comes standard with a push-button start and an extra LCD monitor (plus a larger base monitor).
