Part of the beauty of buying a pickup like the Nissan Frontier is that you can pick and choose from a wide array of trim levels and features so you can option a truck to fit your specific needs and tastes. For the 2027 model year, Nissan is making that choice even broader thanks to the addition of a Sport Edition package for the SV-grade Frontier—another rugged option for the off-road inclined.
The new 2027 Frontier Sport Edition is meant to bridge the gap between the budget-friendly SV grade and the rugged Pro-X. It brings yellow accent stitching to the upgraded cloth seats, “Sport” tailgate and bedside badging, and a black lower front fascia, mirrors, and grille. The existing 17-inch wheels are upgraded with 265/70R17 Hankook Dynapro all-terrain tires. Finally, front accent lighting, an aluminum skid plate, and LED fog lights complete the look.

Also joining the list of options for the 2027 Frontier is a new Alpine Metallic exterior paint color. The existing shades consist of Bluestone Pearl, Red Alert, Tactical Green Metallic, Afterburn Orange, Gun Metallic, Super Black, Glacier White, and Boulder Gray Pearl. We don’t know who named these, but that seems like a fun job.
On the tech side, the Pro Convenience package’s wireless phone charger has been upgraded to provide faster charging. There’s now Qi2 standard, which means there’s a magnet to help keep your phone in the best charging position, as well as a fan to keep it cool. A moonroof will also be offered on Pro-grade trucks with the Convenience package.

Specs-wise, not much has changed between 2026 and 2027. The Frontier still comes with Nissan’s now familiar 3.8-liter V-6, good for a claimed 310 hp and 281 lb-ft of torque. Grades include the base S, SV, Pro-X, Pro-4X, and top-tier SL. Either the King Cab or Crew Cab body styles are offered, and 5- or 6-foot beds are available.
We’ll hear more about pricing for the 2027 Nissan Frontier shortly before the trucks start hitting dealerships this summer.
