Styled around the concept of Rugged Tech, the all-new Frontier Pro pickup features a modern exterior design that prioritizes a spacious and refined interior. Around the front profile, the Nissan Frontier Pro features an illuminated brand logo and five LED light setups, spaced horizontally and spanning the truck's width.

Inside the cabin, you'll find a standard panoramic sunroof, a 10-inch LCD instrument panel, and a 14.6-inch infotainment screen. The spacious cabin has front seats featuring heating, ventilation, and seat-back massage. The pickup features roof rails and an electronic retractable cargo cover to match the customers' active lifestyles. There is a vehicle-to-load port that allows you to charge household devices. As per the available details, the pickup will be co-developed with Zhengzhou Nissan, initially going on sale in China and later being exported to global markets.

Under the hood, the plug-in hybrid Nissan Frontier Pro is powered by a 1.5-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder engine and a transmission-mounted high-output electric motor. The combined power output of the hybrid powertrain exceeds 300 kW and produces 800 Nm of torque. The Frontier Pro is said to deliver up to 135 km of all-electric range, and with the ICE configuration, the range can be further expanded.
