April has begun - but Nissan is still examining March, deciphering profit margins and sales figures. The month proved a boon for the brand, yielding record-breaking tallies across the crossover, sedan, and pick-up verticals.

Among the most impressive of those verticals was the 2018 Frontier - which, according to Nissan, generated a staggering 28% year-to-year increase. Approximately 9,000 total S, SV, SL, and PRO-4X models were sold in the United States last month (a sizable leap from 2017’s 6,973). This marks a milestone for the brand, proving the viability of the compact truck market and providing its Ford and Toyota competitors with much to consider. No longer do half-tons dominate every chart.


The Kirkland team must confess: we’re not surprised by the Frontier’s success. Throughout March we saw this truck roll off our lot again and again - with Seattle drivers thrilled by its potent power (up to 261 HP and 281 lb.-ft of torque) and convenient mid-size profile (219-inches long, 73-inches wide, 70-inches high). Its 73.2-inch bed length accommodates all payloads; while its smooth 4WD traverses every terrain with ease, utilizing both an active brake limited slip and an available electronic locking differential to stabilize the chassis.

The 2018 Frontier delivers everyday performance - making it a worthy alternative to the hulking F-Series and Tundra. To learn more about this platform contact us today!

Regret proves a common companion on the backroads - with every roll of your pick-up leaving you anxious. Its soft suspension wasn’t intended for Washington adventures. Instead it was meant for the suburbs, delivering a mild everyday performance.

Nissan believes you need something more - which is why it’s fused the 2018 Frontier with an all-terrain design.


According to JD Power, the new Frontier (available in S, SV, SL, and PRO-4X trims) adapts to every mile. A strut grille accommodates changing inclines, allowing for seamless approach angles; while stamped-steel fender flares protect the undercarriage from debris. Rear overhangs shield the side panels and all-season tires; the shortened front track (61.8-inches) promises easier maneuverability, negating the chance of a sudden bumper collision; and an available electronic rear differential promotes balance, engaging as needed to reduce friction and enhance suspension responses.

To further accommodate off-road adventures, the 2018 Frontier also features two class-leading cargo beds - measuring 5-ft. and 6.1-ft., respectively. These deliver up to 1,502 pounds of payload hauling, allowing drivers to take every ATV toy with them.

With the release of the 2018 Frontier Nissan provides drivers with the off-road performance they crave. To learn more about this pick-up contact our team today.

2018 Nissan Frontier PRO-4X Offers Class-Leading Power In Seattle

A V8 mentality defines the half-ton world - with critics and drivers both convinced that this engine is essential for every payload. No half-ton truck can prove its worth without one, and all other powertrains should be shunned.

Nissan suggests broadening your torque horizons - because its 2018 Frontier Pro-4X boasts a V6 that will impress on every highway.


According to Nissan, the 2018 Pro-4X defies all V8 traditions. It features a 4.0L DOHC V6, which generates 261 HP and 281 lb.-ft of torque. Its micro-finished camshaft and Teflon-coated pistons deliver a durable design, adapting to every half-ton demand; while the lightweight aluminum block improves fuel efficiency (allowing the truck to achieve 15 MPGs in the city and 21 MPGs on the highway). A five-speed automatic transmission reduces the strain of downshifting, creating a more fluid ride; and a switch-operated transfer case system seamlessly transitions from 4x2 to 4x4 performance to accommodate changing terrains.

The 2018 Frontier’s V6 has been meticulously engineered - and Seattle drivers will reap the rewards of class-leading performance. This Nissan pick-up offers a maximum trailering capacity of 6,450 pounds; and its 60-inch bed provides 1,180 pounds of payload storage.

No V8 is needed.

Efficiency often eludes pick-up fans - with their long-wheeled trucks demanding an excess of fuel, forcing them to constantly seek out stations. Massive engines devour each drop, and heavy payloads strain every resource. This is the way of things.

No more, says Nissan. With the release of the 2018 Frontier S, drivers can finally achieve the economy they crave. This King Cab platform yields best-in-class capability, making it the ideal option for Seattle off-roaders and commercial haulers.


As a recent press release explains, the 2018 S King Cab reinvents the half-ton market - connecting drivers to 19 MPGs in the city and 23 MPGs on the highway. How does Nissan accomplish this feat? It’s fused the Frontier with an advanced engine suite.

Open the hood and discover a 2.5L DOHC four-cylinder - which yields 152 HP and 171 lb.-ft of of torque. Unlike its hulking V8 contemporaries, this powerplant emphasizes efficiency, blending a direct ignition system with induction control. These technologies allow fuel to be distributed with greater care, with continuously variable intake valves optimizing every drop. An electronic drive-by-wire throttle eliminates gas-guzzling gear strains; while platinum-tipped spark plugs ensure immediate current connections (stalled circuits require extra resources). The entire chassis is primed to impress.

Winter often proves a disastrous month for the automotive world - sending drivers scurrying into their homes, keeping them from both the highways and the dealerships. The threat of snow undermines every sale.

In February, however, Nissan managed to defy the season - with its 2018 Frontier achieving strong year-to-year growth. This pick-up fleet (which includes the S, SV, SL, and PRO-4X) rose to the top of the charts in Seattle and beyond.


As a recent Nissan press release explains, the 2018 Frontier generated 7,992 units last month. When compared to 2017’s 4,736 units, this marks an improvement of 68.8% - an impressive feat in the middle of a dreary winter. Combined with the brand’s other top-sellers (the Rogue, Titan, and Murano), this pick-up helped to deliver a record-breaking February.

The Kirkland team knows why. With the release of the 2018 Frontier, Nissan has provided drivers with staggering payload performance. This fleet - which is anchored by a 4.0L 24-valve V6, revving to 261 HP and 281 lb.-ft of torque - can achieve up to 6,640 pounds of conventional towing. This marks it as ideal for both commercial and all-terrain needs, with its massive bed (between 60 inches to 73.2 inches) accommodating any haul. Rely on this six-speed beast on every adventure.

The 2018 Frontier is a top-seller at the Kirkland lot. To schedule a test-drive in one of our current models (or to request further specs) contact us today.

The idea proves less than stellar - with a series of frayed straps looped around a pick-up bed, their tattered ends straining against the wind. Every buckle seems ready to snap; each cord is poised to break; and you know that this trip will end with your cargo bouncing down the highway. What else can you do, however? Your truck simply wasn’t designed to accommodate this kind of long-haul payload.

Nissan recommends that you hurry to your nearest dealership - and ask about the 2018 Frontier.


According to a recent press release, the 2018 Frontier delivers superior payload solutions - offering Seattle drivers the Utili-Track system. This exclusive Nissan option adapts to even the toughest loads through its advanced modules. Five 'C' cross-section rails are mounted along the rails to ensure multiple tie-down points. Removable utility cleats slide within the embedded liner tracts, allowing for quick clamp connections; while moveable cargo trays accommodate small items with ease. Adjustable tool boxes line the sides to offer custom storage, and extenders can be added to the tailgate to creates inches of extra space (perfect for lumber and off-road toys).

To further enhance the hauling experience, Nissan has bolstered the Utili-Track system with a heavy-duty bed-liner - coating the Frontier’s rear in scratch-resistant rubber. No longer fear those supersized payloads.

With the inclusion of the Utili-Track system, Nissan ensures that every driver can avoid those cumbersome cords - allowing them to instead customize their cargo and improve their storage.

Want to learn more? Contact our dealership today for further information about this system  - and don’t forget to schedule a test-drive in the 2018 Frontier!

It’s a collection of practical lines - economical design and efficient styling. You peer at the long span of a pick-up, noting the fenders meant to reduce drag and the tires intended to crush the pavement. There isn’t one functional detail missing… nor is there anything that inspires. This big-framed box is terribly dull.

We suggest that you seek a more interesting alternative - like the 2018 Frontier!


Nissan has just unveiled its latest Frontier - and this pick-up will please every Seattle driver. Anchoring the front is a chrome grille, which emphasizes the hulking frame (291-inches of length and 73-inches of width). Tubular step rails draw attention to the aerodynamic side panels, while fog lights deliver a boomerang-style shape. Splash guards protect the 16-inch six-spoke steel wheels, while bed-rail and mirror caps provide a burst of metallic shine. A tailgate spoiler brings depth to the rear, and an optional power sliding moonroof creates a chic addition.

Nissan believes in the power of color - which is why it’s fused the 2018 Frontier with a bold line-up. Catch both the light and every stare by choosing: Forged Copper, Brilliant Silver, Arctic Blue Metallic, and more. Tinted glass and LED accents complete the effect.

The 2018 Frontier proves a striking addition to the pick-up market - allowing drivers to discover more than mere practicality. For further information about this Nissan platform (or to schedule a test-drive in one of our current models) contact us today.

The highway miles hold no appeal for you - offering none of the adventures you crave, delivering only smooth lines and familiar pavement. These roads are too mild to ever impress; and you find yourself longing to explore what waits beyond.

Allow Nissan to help you - by fusing the 2018 Frontier PRO-4X with a series of all-terrain technologies. Prepare to seek out thrills beyond the byways!


As the Chicago Sun Times explains, the new Frontier PRO-4X delivers a premium off-road experience. Bilstein shocks frame the chassis, ensuring balanced handling on even the toughest terrains. Skid plates shield the undercarriage from pebbles and broken pavement, while an electronic differential enhances the suspension (automatically engaging when extra traction is needed and transferring power among the wheels).

To further delight adventurers, the 2018 Frontier also boasts two distinctive gear boxes - a five-speed automatic and a six-speed manual. Choose the former to experience seamless performance, with the system intuitively shifting between ratios to accommodate changing trails; or trust your own abilities with the latter, utilizing its precise design to control every rev.

With the release of the 2018 PRO-4X, Nissan provides off-road fun for every Seattle driver. To learn more about this pick-up contact our team today.
