2022 Toyota Tacoma vs. 2022 Nissan Frontier: Why the 2022 Toyota Tacoma a Better Deal?

When comparing the 2022 Toyota Tacoma with the 2022 Nissan Frontier, you need to keep in mind that the 2022 Toyota Tacoma gives you the option of two engines, a fuel-efficient 2.7-liter 4-cylinder that offers 20 mpg in the city and 23 mpg on the highway or a 3.5-liter V6 engine that churns out 278 horses and 265 pound-feet of torque. On the other hand, the 2022 Nissan Frontier limits your choice with just one standard 310-hp producing 3.5-liter V6 engine. This gives Tacoma an advantage since it allows you to choose what type of engine you need based on your lifestyle. 

Both these pickups come with 4x2 2WD or 4x4 4-Wheel Drive options and offer different truck bed size options to boot. But since we’re talking about pickup trucks, one of the main criteria for choosing a truck is its towing capacity and payload capacity, and the 2022 Toyota Tacoma delivers on both these fronts. The Tacoma has a towing capacity of 6,800 pounds, whereas the Frontier has a capacity of 6,720 pounds. The Tacoma also outperforms the Frontier when it comes to maximum payload capacity with 1,685 pounds of payload capacity versus 1,610 pounds for the Frontier.

That’s not all. The 2022 Toyota Tacoma comes standard with Toyota Safety Senseâ„¢ driver-assist technology to keep your family safe on the road and off-road. Additionally, Tacoma has more interior space for your family and friends, and while the Nissan Frontier has been updated, it still can’t match the design and overall package that the 2022 Tacoma makes.   

  

With its thoughtful choice of engine options, better fuel economy, and better overall performance, the 2022 Toyota Tacoma comes out on top in our comparison.
