Nissan Xterra Teased for 2028: V6, Hybrid and New Body-On-Frame Platform

Nissan posted a teaser image for the returning Xterra SUV on LinkedIn, shared by Christian Meunier, Chairman Nissan Americas, with the caption "Badass is back."

The shadowy desert image shows a squarish, throwback silhouette with upright sides and a spare tire on the tailgate; Nissan’s earlier front-end reveal showed a chiseled hood and amber segmented daytime running lights.

Nissan says the next Xterra will be available with V6 and V6 hybrid powertrains and will ride on a new body-on-frame platform that will underpin a family including the Frontier pickup, a three-row SUV and two Infiniti models.

The Xterra is scheduled to arrive in the second half of 2028 with production based in Canton, Mississippi, and Meunier’s LinkedIn teaser indicates Nissan will continue releasing previews ahead of production.
