Cargo Bed Utility

The cargo bed in King Cab models is 73.3 inches long, 58.8 inches wide (44.4 inches between the wheel wells) and 18 inches tall.

Cars.com editor Joe Bruzek took the Frontier on a junkyard run to pick up an exhaust system that was longer than the cargo bed, but he was able to bring it home thanks in part to the available bed extender, which helped hold the end of the exhaust against the lowered tailgate. He noted that when the tailgate is lowered it covers most of the rear bumper, which makes it harder to step down from the cargo bed. The bed extender is easy to remove when it's not needed, but the tailgate is pretty heavy.

Our test truck had a traditional bedliner, but the Frontier is available with a factory spray-in bedliner and Nissan's Utili-track rail system for securing cargo in the bed and attaching accessories, like bed dividers.
