Safety Comparison
The Nissan Frontier may look deceptively simple, but it does not fall short when it comes to safety.

However, Nissan must catch up with the times by including more active safety technology options, something that its top competitors have already invested in.
Not to be outdone, the 2019 Ford Ranger has an equally outstanding system of airbags and seatbelts. It also has an active safety system guided by radar, which includes Adaptive Cruise Control, a Lane Keeping system, and Pre-Collision Assist features. The comprehensive active and passive safety system on the Ranger is unmatchable, making it the top choice for safety.
