History
The following section is an excerpt from Wikipedia's Nissan Titan page on 18 November 2015, text available via the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported License.
First generation (2003–2015)
The Titan was introduced in 2003 and introduced the full-size Nissan F-Alpha platform, shared with the Nissan Armada and Infiniti QX56 SUVs, which are both derived from the Titan with all three manufactured in Canton, Mississippi, United States. Development began in September 1999, with design work in 2000 under Diane Allen. Giovanny Arroba's TA60 exterior was chosen in late 2000, with a final production freeze in July 2001. The design language of the future truck was previewed by the 2001 Alpha T concept shown at the 2001 Detroit Auto Show, which had previously developed through November 2000. Production began on September 21, 2003 and sales on December 1, 2003. The first generation truck lasted nearly twelve years without any major redesign.
Second generation (2016-)
Nissan unveiled the second generation Titan at the 2015 North American International Auto Show. The second generation Titan was designed in California, engineered in Michigan and will be assembled in Mississippi. The engine is built in Indiana and Tennessee.
Cummins has partnered with Nissan and has announced that the next generation Titan will offer a 310-horsepower (230 kW) Cummins 5.0-litre turbo diesel V8 that produces almost 555 pound-feet (752 N·m) of torque. The engine is referred to as the ISV. The engine will be built in Columbus, Indiana, and have a different version of the engine for commercial trucks.
The Titan will be available in two forms, regular and XD, with the XD being released for sale first. The XD version will be built on a heavy-duty frame based on Nissan's commercial vehicle line and will include the Cummins diesel engine as an option. The platform is shared with the Nissan NV.
