Meet the All-New 2026 Nissan Frontier PRO-4X by Roush

As 2025 wraps and we gear up for 2026, we at Walser Nissan Coon Rapids couldn’t be more excited to introduce the latest iteration of midsize-truck ruggedness: the 2026 Frontier PRO-4X R by Roush. This isn’t just a refresh – it’s a full collaboration between Nissan and Roush, bringing serious off-road capability, distinctive styling, and premium touches to the Frontier.

Engine & Performance

• Under the hood remains the proven 3.8-liter V6 paired with a 9-speed automatic and part-time 4WD, producing 310 hp and 281 lb-ft of torque — the same reliable powertrain as the standard PRO-4X.

• What’s new is what’s under the body: the Roush Performance × Öhlins 2-inch suspension lift, with specialized off-road shocks featuring remote reservoirs, aluminum bodies, 18 mm steel shafts, and rear cooling fins. This setup is tuned for serious trail control while still maintaining on-road comfort.

• Complementing the lift are Roush off-road front upper control arms (painted in signature Roush Red) — designed to improve suspension travel and geometry for better ground clearance and confidence on rough terrain.

For drivers around Minneapolis and beyond, this means the Frontier PRO-4X R isn’t just better-looking, it’s built to handle real off-road conditions where suspension geometry matters.

Off-Road Ready Styling & Grit

Roush didn’t just boost performance, they gave the Frontier a bold, rugged makeover. Some of the standout upgrades:

• 17-inch titanium-finish aluminum wheels with 265/70 R17 Hankook Dynapro AT2 Xtreme all-terrain tires, along with black lug nuts and Roush “R” center caps.

• Exterior upgrades include titanium-painted front grille inserts, a titanium-painted front skid plate, and a lower front fascia.

• Distinctive “R” badging on the grille, fenders, and tailgate signals Roush pedigree; inside, the front-seat headrests get Roush “R” embroidery for a premium, custom feel.

Visually, the PRO-4X R stands apart from a standard Frontier: it’s tougher, more purposeful, and clearly built to earn its keep on trails — not just parking lots.

A Smart Step Up from the Standard PRO-4X

• The PRO-4X R package comes as a factory-offered upgrade — not just aftermarket parts — which means the install is done at the factory or Roush-certified dealer level.

• MSRP starts around $47,960 including the Roush package (lifts, suspension, wheels/tires, styling, badging)

• Roush backs the build with a 3-year / 36,000-mile limited warranty. That warranty coverage offers peace of mind and confidence.

For many buyers, that warranty plus the convenience of getting a “ready-to-go” off-road–capable truck directly from the dealer makes the PRO-4X R a compelling proposition.

At Walser Nissan Coon Rapids, we know the Twin Cities lifestyle: the blend of urban driving, weekend getaways, and occasional off-road or rural adventures. The 2026 Frontier PRO-4X R by Roush fits that lifestyle perfectly:

• Want a reliable commuter for city or highway? It has the same proven V6 powertrain as regular Frontier.

• Planning cabin trips, lake runs, or northern Minnesota off-roading? The suspension lift, off-road tires, and Roush upgrades give you comfort, clearance, and confidence.

• Prefer something head-turning and unique, but still warranty-backed and manufactured to spec? The Roush touches deliver that full-factory feel.

We expect the PRO-4X R to generate real buzz and we encourage folks in Minneapolis and the suburbs to stop by, check it out in person, and see whether this might be their next go-anywhere, do-anything truck.
