Nissan has
officially unveiled the 2019 Titan and Titan XD at the Texas State Fair. Billed as the “most refined Titan
yet,” the pickup has a familiar design as the only exterior change is a revised
color palette that now includes Moab Sunset and Midnight Pine.
Bigger changes occur in the cabin as the 2019 Titan
and Titan XD now come standard with a 7-inch NissanConnect infotainment system
featuring Android Auto and Apple CarPlay compatibility. It replaces the previous
5-inch color audio display.
Besides the infotainment system, the trucks gain an
additional USB media port and a pair of illuminated USB-A charging ports on
PRO-4X, SL and Platinum Reserve variants. Nissan’s Rear Door Alert system,
which reminds drivers to check the rear seats for children, is also standard
King Cab and Crew Cab models. The final update for 2019 is a new Fender premium audio system. It
features 10 to 12 speakers, a nine-channel amplifier and a subwoofer.
All Titan models are
powered by a familiar 5.6-liter V8 engine that produces 390 hp and 533 Nm of torque. It is connected to a seven-speed automatic
transmission which can be paired with an optional four-wheel drive system.
The 5.6-liter V8 engine is also standard on the 2019
Titan XD. However, the model is also available with a 5.0-liter Cummins
turbodiesel V8 engine that develops 310 hp and 751
Nm of torque.
The 2019 Nissan Titan will go on sale this fall and
pricing will be announced closer to launch.
