2016 Nissan Titan XD revealed in Detroit

Nissan unveiled the all-new 2016 Nissan Titan XD at the 2015 Northern American International Auto Show, held in Detroit recently.

The Titan XD variant gets 5.0-litre V8 turbo-diesel engine under the hood, producing about 310 hp and 752 Nm of torque.

The new Titan XD Crew Cab is the first of three cab configurations, two frame sizes, three powertrain offerings and five grade levels to be available later in the lineup.

Features and convenience aids in the Titan XD include RearView Monitor with Trailer Guides, Around View Monitor (AVM) with Moving Object Detection (MOD) and a Trailer Light Check system that allows one-person hook-up operation, and including checking turn signals, brake lights and running/clearance lights from outside the vehicle. Also available are Blind Spot Warning (BSW) and a Front and Rear Sonar System.

Interior features include front and rear NASA-inspired Zero Gravity seats and a large centre console designed to serve as a mobile workstation.

It is unlikely that the Nissan Titan will be offered in the GCC, considering the decade-old previous version never made it to our UAE shores.
