Nissan's Titan half ton was new in 2017, so as expected, there are no significant changes for the 2018 model year, with the exception of the new Midnight Edition black trim package.
Nissan continues to offer two-door single cabs with an 8-foot bed; King Cabs have rear-hinged rear doors and a 6-foot-3-inch bed. Four-door crew cabs have a 5-foot-6-inch bed. Five different trim levels are available depending on configuration. The range of trims include the base S, SV, Pro-4X, SL and Platinum Reserve. Midnight Editions are offered on crew-cab SV and SL trims.
All Titan half tons have a 5.6-liter gasoline V-8 engine with a standard seven-speed automatic transmission. Rear-wheel drive or a part-time four-wheel-drive system are offered.
The Titan half ton joined the larger, longer and heavier-duty Titan XD as the volume model to compete with other half-ton full-size pickup trucks that include the Chevrolet Silverado 1500, Ford F-150, GMC Sierra 1500, Ram 1500 and Toyota Tundra. The previous generation Titan was a small-volume player in a segment dominated by Ford.
