Safe trailering requires drivers to consider more than the trailer’s listed weight. Passengers, cargo, accessories, hitch equipment, and tongue load all count toward the truck’s payload and overall weight limits.

Every 2027 Nissan Frontier carries the same 11,960-pound gross combined weight rating and 6,012-pound gross vehicle weight rating. Payload and tongue-load limits vary according to the selected drivetrain, cab, trim, and equipment.

• Tongue-load ratings range from approximately 627 to 715 pounds depending on configuration
• GVWR: 6,012 pounds throughout the lineup
• Maximum payload capacity: up to 1,590 pounds with the King Cab S 4×2
• GCWR for the vehicle and trailer combined: 11,960 pounds across all configurations

Rear-wheel-drive Frontier configurations typically provide the strongest towing ratings within the same grade and wheelbase. Because four-wheel-drive components add weight, comparable 4×4 models may have slightly lower maximum capacities.

Choosing four-wheel drive can provide better traction on muddy worksites, loose surfaces, and poor-weather roads. Long-wheelbase Crew Cab trucks may also tow somewhat less than similar short-wheelbase models.

• Long-wheelbase Crew Cab configurations generally tow slightly less than comparable short-wheelbase trucks
• 4×2 models usually deliver the highest towing capacity within each grade
• 4×4 configurations exchange some maximum towing capacity for improved traction
