NISSAN FRONTIER NAVARA

One of the anticipated trucks in the market, the redesigned Navara gets a host of amenities with some being unique to this vehicle. A 2.5 engine comes standard but you can't deny how powerful it is, especially that it can be paired to a seven speed automatic.

The Good: An all around truck that can beat the Ranger

The Bad: Long term durability of the coil springs is unknown

NISSAN FRONTIER NAVARA (2007-2015)

Replacing the rather class lagging Frontier (the old body is marketed towards the fleet consumers), the Navara had lots of torque and power over its rivals back then. Time passed by with them crawling over the figures which was remedied by adding numerous models.
