Chic proves an unfamiliar word within the half-ton dictionary. Bulky lines and heavy panels instead define each truck - with drivers resigning themselves to a less than refined style.
With the release of the 2018 Titan XD, Nissan seeks to shatter this expectation - delivering a pick-up that proves both brawny and beautiful. No compromise is needed.
According to Car and Driver, the 2018 Titan XD is masterfully designed. Its lean profile - 242.7-inches long, 79.5-inches wide, and 78-inches high - brands it as unique in the segment, with its main competitors (the Ford F-150 and RAM 2500) proving hulking in comparison. 17-inch silver-painted steel wheels deliver five-spoke styling, while skid plates line the undercarriage. A chrome grille offers hexagonal mesh inserts; LED daytime running lights line the front; and black-capped mirrors feature wide angle-lenses and extendable bars, anchoring the sleek side panels.
The 2018 Titan XD also boasts available rocker moldings and running boards. These emphasize the truck’s athletic design, drawing eyes to the high-arched wheel wells and slim side panels.
Nissan believes that drivers deserve more than mere power (though none can deny the potency of the XD’s 5.6L V8, which yields 390 HP and 394 lb.-ft of torque). This pick-up proves ready to steal the spotlight with every mile.
