Cars.com has named the all-new Nissan Titan XD as their “Best Pickup of 2016.” The Titan XD is one of the automaker’s most recent additions and has already garnered praise from across the automotive industry.
"The all-new 2016 Nissan Titan XD isn't just breaking new ground for the automaker as its first significant attempt to compete in the highly competitive and profitable full-size pickup truck marketplace. The Titan XD is also breaking new ground for the industry, offering a 'tweener' model that sits smack in the middle of the well-established 150/1500 and 250/2500 pickup truck segments," said Cars.com editors.
One of the standout features on the pickup is its standard Cummins 5.0-liter V8 Turbo Diesel engine that the editors called the truck's “secret weapon.” The powertrain generates 310 horsepower and 555 lb.-ft. of torque. This allows the Titan XD to tow over 12,300 pounds and carry over 2,000 pounds, when properly equipped. Its heavy-duty, six-speed Aisin automatic transmission also contributes to this impressive towing prowess, while also giving the truck nice fuel numbers.
Drivers will be able to choose between five very well-equipped trim levels on the XD, which offer a host of fantastic features for whatever you might need. From a capable work truck to a luxury hauler, the Titan XD can be outfitted to fit your budget and your lifestyle.
