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!

2018 Nissan Frontier SV Delivers Potent Performance In Seattle

Mid-size styling once proved the bane of the pick-up market - forcing drivers to sacrifice performance for convenience, trading power for maneuverability. Less was never more. 

Nissan has finally changed this - connecting Seattle drivers to its 2018 Frontier SV. This pick-up (despite proving more compact than its Ford and Toyota brethren) delivers exceptional capability, offering a V6 engine that will rev through every task with ease.


As Nissan explains, the 2018 SV is no ordinary mid-size platform. It’s instead a beast on the backroads. Beneath its hood rumbles a 4.0L DOHC 24-valve V6, which yields 261 HP and 281 lb.-ft of torque. An electronic drive-by-wire throttle anchors the chassis, ensuring seamless bursts of power; while a five-speed automatic transmission promotes deft gear responses by eliminating down-shift dragging. 4x2 and 4x4 drivetrains are available, allowing consumers to define their payload needs (haul up to 1,430 pounds); and a Dana 44 rear axle creates a stable ride, locking as needed to balance the suspension on harsh terrains.

To further bolster the mid-size market, the 2018 Frontier also offers segment-leading performance - with its Class IV hitch receiver accommodating up to 6,710 pounds. Compromise no more, Seattle.

Curious about the 2018 Frontier SV? Visit our dealership today to learn more about this Nissan pick-up - and don’t hesitate to schedule a test-drive in one of our current models.

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.

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.

With the release of the 2018 Frontier SL, Nissan seeks to elevate the pick-up experience. No longer will drivers be forced to endure harsh vinyls and flat-cushioned seats. Instead they’ll be able to indulge in each mile, with comfort emphasized and convenience delivered.

The front cushions feature multi-level heating systems, while all positions benefit from 4-way power adjusters and integrated lumbar support. Both the steering wheel and shift knob boast custom stitching, while dual-zone automatic climate controls ensure optimum comfort (raise or lower temperatures for each passenger with the turn of a dial). A power-sliding moonroof delivers access to one-touch tilting technology and UV-reducing tinted glass.

To ensure further ease, the 2018 SL also features tubular step rails - allowing individuals to easily scale its massive frame (219-inches in length, 73-inches in width, 70-inches in height). Their heavy-gauge steel materials and exclusive powder-coatings ensure long-lasting support.

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.

Will The 2018 Nissan Frontier NP300 Come To Seattle?

Tags:

Across the border waits a beast - a snarling diesel-toothed monster, with its back lined in chrome and its tires stomping against the ground. This V8 prowls the streets of Mexico, its six-speed manual transmission delivering a throaty growl with every mile. It’s ferocious; it’s powerful; it’s… refusing to come to Seattle.

Recently Nissan revealed the 2018 Frontier NP300. This twin-turbo platform has already revved to the top of the charts in Mexico, decimating the competition with its low-range 4x4 drivetrain. Seattle critics, however, can’t afford to go down south to see it - and they’re now clamoring for a U.S. release.

Will it happen?


According to TFL Truck, Nissan is considering bringing the NP300 to the United States. High consumer interest has proven the viability of a diesel Frontier, and the platform could serve as a direct competitor for the Ford F-150 and the Toyota Tacoma. Should it cross the border, critics anticipate that it would boast a 2.5L turbocharged engine, yielding 161 HP and 297 lb.-ft of torque. A six-speed manual transmission would provide superior handling, allowing drivers to control every gear; while an estimated 5,000-pound payload capacity would promise mid-size adaptability, accommodating day-to-day hauls with ease.

No official confirmation about the Frontier NP300’s arrival has been given - but we have our fingers crossed that this diesel beast will make its way to Seattle.
