The new Nissan
Titan is one of the most interesting additions to the full-size pickup class.
In Titan XD form, it manages to blur the line between a light- and a heavy-duty
pickup thanks to a heavy-duty frame and an engine that churns out lots of
torque: the 5.0L Cummins V8 turbo diesel.
The DOHC 32-valve powerplant offers 310 horsepower
and 752 Nm, which is duly welcome for those who need to tow
and haul a lot. in XD S Single Cab 4x2 configuration with the Convenience and
Utility Package, the diesel-powered truck is capable of towing 12,650 pounds.
What’s more, the Cummins engine offers better mileage than the gas-powered base
engine.
It’s rather clear, that the Nissan Titan XD
can hold its own as a work truck. Modified by Nissan by using genuine parts and
accessories, these two embody what OEM personalization is all about. The Titan
XD with the Nissan-designed bed extender and bed divider certainly ticks all
the right boxes.
Besides the readily-available genuine accessories,
the pictured Titan Pro-4X project truck includes modifications such as a lift
kit that one-ups things by 1.5 inches at the front and 1 inch at the rear,
Nismo cat-back exhaust system, Hankook Dynapro ATM 285x55 20" tires, and a
Trifecta tonneau cover.
