The Car Connection's Take

TCC Rating

Read Our Full Review

TCC’s Bottom Line

The 2021 Chevy Colorado’s many configurations give shoppers the kind of choice typically reserved for full-size trucks, but Chevy skimps on safety features.

The redesigned 2022 Nissan Frontier takes a conservative step into the modern era.

TCC Likes

ZR2 off-road chops

Bed step

Pro-4X upgrades

TCC Dislikes

Dull interior
Few safety features
Poor crash test ratings

Automatic emergency braking is not standard
Does it ride any smoother?
Is it any more efficient?
