Economy proves rare within the half-ton market - with pick-ups intended for payloads, not pump performance. Strength, it’s argued, can’t coexist with efficiency.

Nissan disagrees.

According to JD Power, the 2018 Titan delivers class-leading economy - with its 5.6L Endurance V8 engine generating up to 15 MPGs in the city and 21 MPGs on the highway. How does it achieve such a strong ratio? Nissan credits its inclusion of active grille technology.



Efficiency has come to the pick-up market - with active grille shutters anchoring the Titan’s front. These are exclusive valves that open and close as needed to control air flow. Their main purpose is to ensure optimum engine temperatures, increasing intake levels when sensors indicate that the V8 is over-heating. When this goal is achieved, however, they will then create a tight seal against the fenders, forcing wind to divert away from the chassis.

This promotes aerodynamic responses with every mile - allowing the Titan to battle more effectively against drag. The platform can quickly maneuver through each environment, with air sluiced away and friction reduced. Engine strain is greatly lessened. The need for an excess of resources, therefore, is decreased and overall economy rises.

Active grille shutters provide the Titan with superior control over every drop of fuel - and they allow drivers to experience greater value at the pump. To learn more contact us today!
