Nissan Adds King Cab to Complete Full-Size Titan Pickup Line

Nissan completed the body-style offerings for its new full-size pickups with the Titan and Titan XD King Cab models. The King Cab joins Nissan's Crew Cab and Single Cab offerings. The King Cab offers six-person seating, wide-opening rear doors and available “rear seat delete” option that presents a flat rear floor to expand secure in-cab storage space.

“The launch of the new King Cab body is the last step in a journey that began in December 2015 with the debut of the breakthrough Titan XD, which continues to carve out a unique white space between competitors’ heavy-duty and half-ton trucks,” said Fred Diaz, vice president and general manager for Nissan North America’s Trucks and Light Commercial Vehicles division. “Now, with the addition of a half-ton Titan, our new Endurance V8, three body configurations, three bed lengths and a range of grade levels and equipment packages, we’re covering nearly every segment in the personal and commercial full-size truck markets.”

The Titan King Cab is offered in 4x4 and 4x2 drive and three grade levels – S, SV and PRO-4X – each with a standard 390-hp 5.6-L Endurance V8 engine and seven-speed automatic transmission. Titan King Cab offers an available maximum towing capacity of 9,420 lb. and maximum payload capacity of 1,640 lb. when properly equipped.

Two driveline choices are offered with the Titan XD King Cab: the 390-hp 5.6-L Endurance V8 with 7-speed automatic, or a Cummins 5.0-L V8 Turbo Diesel rated at 310 hp and 555 lb.-ft. of torque matched with a heavy-duty six-speed Aisin A466ND automatic transmission. Maximum towing capacity of the Titan XD King Cab reaches 12,510 lb. with the diesel engine option. Max. payload is 2,710 lb. with the gasoline engine.

The King Cab body was designed by Nissan Design America in San Diego, Calif., with a roomy cab and choice of front split bench seat or front bucket seats (standard on PRO-4X, optional on SV grade). A 60/40-split fold-down rear seat is also standard. Heated front seats are available with PRO-4X and SV grade, along with optional heated and cooled front seats on PRO-4X.

As part of the American Titan lineup, the new King Cab was developed with core Nissan planning, design, engineering and manufacturing teams contributing from Tennessee, California, Michigan, Arizona and Mississippi. The Titan and Titan XD King Cabs are assembled in Canton, Miss., with its V8 engines assembled in Decherd, Tenn., and Cummins diesel engines assembled in Columbus, Ind.

All Titan and Titan XD models are covered by Nissan’s bumper-to-bumper warranty coverage for five years/100,000 miles, whichever comes first.
