The 2019 Nissan Titan XD gives buyers a wide variety of engine, cabin, transmission, and trim options. It offers a maximum payload of almost 3,000 pounds with prices starting from $34,285 (all prices include the $1,395 destination charge).
Changes for 2019 include a new 7-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration and an extra USB port to bring the count up to two. The SV trim gets a new body-color outer grille, while a 12-speaker Fender audio system is now standard on Crew Cab SL and Platinum trim levels. Crew Cab and King Cab models also gain Nissan’s Rear Door Alert system.
Under the hood, buyers have their choice of two engines. The base motor is a 5.6-liter V8 that develops 390 horsepower and 394 pound-feet of torque. It's mated to a seven-speed automatic transmission.
Also available is a 5.0-liter Cummins V8 turbodiesel that's paired with a six-speed automatic transmission to produce 310 hp and 555 lb-ft of torque. Upgrading to the turbodiesel costs between $4,860 and $6,650 depending on the trim level, cab choice, and drivetrain.
There are three body styles across the range: Single Cab, King Cab, and Crew Cab. Single Cab models have a 40/20/40-split front bench seat and no rear doors. King Cab variants have smaller, rear-hinged rear doors and a 60/40-split rear bench seat. The rear seats can be removed and replaced with a flat floor and secure in-cab storage on King Cab models. Crew Cab variants have four full-size doors and the same 60/40-split rear bench seat.
Another choice for Titan XD buyers involves the drivetrain, with both 4x2 and 4x4 configurations available. S and SV models come standard with 4x2 and have 4x4 available for an extra $3,150 or $3,140, depending on the trim and cab. PRO-4X, SL, and Platinum Reserve trims get four-wheel drive standard.
There are five trim levels to choose from:
The Titan XD range begins with the S model, which starts at $34,285 with the Single Cab, gas engine, and 4x2. With the gas engine, the King Cab 4x2 retails for $36,285, while the Crew Cab is available exclusively with 4x4 for a starting price of $42,725.
Every Titan XD S comes with a 7-inch touchscreen incorporating Apple CarPlay and Android Auto and a four-speaker audio system. The cabin majors on practicality with stain-resistant cloth seats and a vinyl floor, 12- and 110-volt power outlets, remote keyless entry, and push-button start. Safety features include six airbags, cruise control, and a rearview camera.
Only available on 4x4 models, the S Utility Package ($845) adds a Class IV tow hitch receiver, a spray-on bedliner, and a front overhead storage console, while the Heavy Duty Front Gawr Package ($150) equips the Titan XD with high-capacity front springs. Deleting the rear bench on 4x4 King Cab models saves buyers $500.
As with S models, Titan XD SV models come in a variety of combinations. With the gas engine, the SV Single Cab 4x2 starts at $38,385, the SV King Cab 4x2 at $40,885, and the SV Crew Cab 4x4 at $47,035. A diesel Crew Cab SV Midnight Edition is available for a starting price of $55,860. It adds black 20-inch alloy wheels, charcoal interior trim, and other black exterior touches and badging.
Every Titan XD SV benefits from a satellite radio, a carpeted floor, extra instrumentation including an off-road indicator, cabin mood lighting, and storage for sunglasses and grocery bags. The power adjustable heated outside mirrors are chrome-capped, there are LED rear lights, and the grille is black mesh.
On 4x4 models, there are once again a few packages available, including the return of the Heavy Duty Front Gawr Package for $150. The SV Utility Package ($1,145) adds a utili-track channel system with four tie-down cleats, a spray-on bedliner, a 120-volt power outlet in the truck bed, LED bed lighting, and tailgate area illumination. The SV Convenience Package ($1,395) bundles 20-inch aluminum-alloy wheels, all-season tires, automatic headlights, a body-color rear bumper, black step rails, navigation, voice recognition, dual-zone climate control, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, power and heated manually extendable tow mirrors, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, and front and rear parking sensors.
On King Cab 4x4 and Crew Cab models, the cost of the SV Convenience Package increases to $2,715 thanks to additional upgrades: front captain's chairs, a configurable center console, an eight-way power driver's seat with lumbar support, heated front seats, two rear USB ports, rear air conditioning vents, rain-sensing windshield wipers, running boards, and a power sliding rear window with a defroster.
Available on SV King Cab 4x4 and Crew Cab variants, the Chrome Package ($1,245) adds metallic and chrome exterior touches, while the Texas Titan Edition ($1,295) similar exterior touches and Texas Titan Edition badging.
The PRO-4X is the first Titan XD to restrict model choice. Every version comes with 4x4 as standard, and there’s no Single Cab option. With the gas engine, the Titan XD PRO-4X starts at $48,505 for the King Cab and $50,785 for the Crew Cab.
PRO-4X models stand out with 18-inch aluminum-alloy wheels and all-terrain off-road tires, while front fog lights and two-tone paint add to the visual drama. The interior is equipped with front-row captain’s seats, PRO-4X embroidery, an eight-way power driver's seat with lumbar support, dual-zone climate control, navigation, automatic headlights, rain-sensing windshield wipers, blind-spot monitoring, and rear cross-traffic alert.
The PRO-4X Utility Package ($1,445) adds a 10-speaker Fender audio system, an electronic tailgate lock, a sliding rear window with a defroster, front and rear parking sensors, and the equipment from the SV Utility Package. The Premium Package ($1,545) brings heated and cooled front seats, a surround-view camera system, side mirrors with reverse tilt-down feature, and dual lockable in-bed storage boxes.
The PRO-4X Convenience Package ($3,295) bundles a four-way power passenger seat, heated front seats, memory for the driver's seat, steering wheel, and side mirrors, leather seating, a heated and leather-wrapped steering wheel, remote start with intelligent climate control, a power tilt and telescoping steering column, an auto-dimming rearview mirror and driver-side mirror, and NissanConnect Services. This package costs $3,545 on Crew Cab variants thanks to the addition of heated rear seats.
Available only with the Crew Cab and required 4x4, the Titan XD SL starts at $55,495. SL models gain full leather seating, heated front seats, a Fender audio system, remote engine start, and front and rear parking sensors. Chrome is applied everywhere from the outside mirrors and grille surround to the front fascia and rear bumper, while LED headlights and proximity-activated puddle lights are standard.
The Chrome Package and Texas Titan Edition both return for the same $1,295 price. Also available is a diesel Crew Cab SL Midnight Edition for a starting price of $62,075. It adds the same black wheels, interior, accoutrements, and badging found on the SV Midnight Edition.
Pricing for the Titan XD Platinum Reserve Crew Cab 4x4 starts at $61,375. Platinum Reserve badging adorns the premium leather seats, metallic kickplates, and wood instrument panels. Two-tone paint and chrome details elevate the exterior, with heated rear seats and cooled front seats complementing a leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob. The Platinum Reserve Utility Package ($750) adds dual lockable in-bed storage boxes, an electronic tailgate lock, and a rear bumper assist step.
Given the wealth of choices, your ideal 2019 Nissan Titan XD depends on your requirements and preferences. In our opinion, the SV King Cab represents a sweet spot in the lineup where you can get a versatile truck with room for four for around $40,000.
