Nissan's diesel-powered 2016 Titan XD pickup will tow about 12,000 pounds and offers a maximum payload capacity of 2,000 pounds, according to new details released by Nissan this week.
The vehicle is also expected to arrive with a gross vehicle weight rating above 8,500 pounds, meaning it won't go through emissions testing by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
The Titan XD will be the first of four expected Titan models from Nissan, which will include a gasoline-powered V-8 and two additional future models without the XD nomenclature including a gasoline-powered V-6. The Titan XD is powered by a Cummins 5.0L V-8 turbo diesel that makes 310 hp and 555 lb.-ft. of torque.
To aid towing, the Titan XD will include Integrated Trailer Brake Controller, Trailer Sway Control (TSC), Tow/Haul Mode with Downhill Speed Control and a Trailer Light Check system that allows the driver to check turn signals, brake lights and running or clearance lights from inside the cab.
The truck will also offer a back-up camera with trailer guides, available Around View Monitor for a 360-degree view, and Moving Object Detection. The truck will meet SAE J2807 towing standards.
The truck will initially arrive as a crew cab, but eventually be available in three cab configurations, two frame sizes, three powertrain offerings, and five grade levels.
The longer Titan will arrive with a 151.6-inch wheelbase, which will be 20 inches longer than non-XD Titan models. The rear differential measures 13 inches with 3.5-inch axle tubes, while the front differential on 4x4 models measures 9.25 inches. Nissan is also offering an electronic locking rear differential.
The Titan XD rides on 17-, 18- or 20-inch aluminum-alloy wheels with LT245/75R17, LT275/65R18 or LT265/60R20 all-weather tires.
