The 2017 Nissan Titan Crew Cab V8 is set to compete in the heart of the full-size pickup truck segment.
In 2016, the Nissan Titan XD shook up the highly competitive full-size pickup segment in the United States and Canada with a bold design and capabilities that staked out a unique position in the segment between traditional heavy-duty and light-duty entries. Now, for the 2017 model year, the Nissan full-size pickup line-up expands with the arrival of the all-new Titan half-ton. Powered by Nissan’s new 390-horsepower 5.6-liter Endurance V8 engine, the Titan half-ton will initially be offered in a roomy Crew Cab body in both 4x4 and 4x2 configurations and in five well-equipped grade levels: S, SV, PRO-4X, SL and Platinum Reserve.
The Titan half-ton’s exterior design was created at Nissan Design America in La Jolla, Calif. The design’s focus on improved aerodynamics (an approximate 10 percent reduction versus the previous generation Titan) incorporates a front spoiler, roof and tailgate spoilers, front tow hook hole cover, underbody covers, rear tire wind deflectors and a seal between the cab and bed.
ENGINE
While the 2017 Titan half-ton’s new 5.6-litre Endurance V8 engine shares its displacement with the previous generation V8, but that’s where the similarities end. The new engine features 390 horsepower @ 5,800 rpm (up 73 hp from the previous 317 hp) and 394 lb-ft of torque (up from the previous 385). The new engine utilises Nissan’s advanced VVEL (Variable Valve Event & Lift) technology, which combines hydraulic-controlled variable valve timing and electronically controlled variable valve lift on the intake side to provide high performance and crisp response. Throttle response is enhanced by directly controlling the intake valve, rather than using the traditional method of controlling intake with a throttle valve.
