Get ready to experience all kinds of power, Seattle—the 2018 Nissan TITAN takes its name seriously. It’s a truck that excels when it comes to achieving the finest road and trail performance possible. How? The engine and its various technologies combine to increase output as well as overall efficiency.
Each 2018 TITAN comes with a 5.6-liter Endurance® V8 motor. It cranks out an incredible 390 HP @ 5,800 rpm and 394-lb.-ft. of torque. Moreover, it leverages VVEL technology. This controls variable valve timing and lift on the intake side in order to realize remarkable performance. Throttle response is further improved via direct manipulation of the intake as opposed to the conventional method of tweaking it via a valve.
Also on tap is Direct Injection Gas (DIG™) technology. This operates to decrease engine knock and enhance system command, thereby boosting throttle performance and increasing fuel economy (21 average MPG on the highway). Plus, a Multi Control Valve (MCV) excels beyond traditional thermostats in managing the Endurance V8 motor’s thermal efficiency. There’s a lot at work here!
