⚠ Important
Towing figures vary by cab, bed length, and drivetrain; verify against the door-jamb sticker and owner's manual for the specific VIN, as OEM published maximums differ slightly by source and mid-year revisions.

Prose overview
The 2025 Nissan Frontier carries a maximum towing capacity of 7,150 lbs when properly equipped, paired with a Class III hitch. As with every truck and SUV, the rating swings by engine, drivetrain, cab and bed configuration, and rear axle ratio — so two 2025 Nissan Frontiers on the same lot can be rated thousands of pounds apart. Match your trailer to the lowestrelevant limit (towing capacity, payload, GCWR, and hitch rating), and verify against the sticker inside the driver's-side door jamb.
