2011 Nissan Frontier SV

The 2011 Nissan Frontier 2.5L 2WD King Cab is an entry-level, work-oriented mid-size pickup truck. It prioritizes fuel economy and affordability over heavy-duty performance, utilizing a four-cylinder engine exclusively available in the two-wheel-drive King Cab configuration (S and SV trims).

This model is powered by a 2.5-liter DOHC 16-valve inline-4 engine. While adequate for light hauling and daily commuting, it lacks the towing capacity of the optional V6 models.
