Nisan today confirmed what we saw a few months ago – the 2017 Titan and Titan XD will include Single Cab options for 2017. This will be the first time in Nissan’s truck history that it will offer a Single Cab option for the commercial fleet/work truck market. The Single Cab is the second of three eventual Titan body configurations, as it will join the Crew Cab and the eventual King Cab that will be unveiled soon. Nissan says the Single Cab version will be on sale later this year.
“Once we complete the roll-out of all TITAN cab, bed, powertrain and grade level configurations, our all-new TITAN family will cover about 85 percent of the total light pickup marketplace,” said Rich Miller, director of Product Planning for Trucks, SUVs and Commercial Vehicles, Nissan North America, Inc. and chief product specialist for TITAN and TITAN XD. “More importantly, the TITAN XD and TITAN single cabs will have the power, torque, heavy duty chassis and durability demanded by today’s demanding worksites – including the highest towing capacities and payloads in the lineup.”
The new single cab option with be one of three cab configurations, and other options will include three bed lengths, three engines, 4×4 and 4×2 drive and S, SV, SL, PRO-4X and Platinum Reserve trim levels. Although the Titan and Titan XD will both share the same cab dimensions and 8-foot bed, they will of course be on different fully boxed ladder frame chassis. The Titan XD will be available with the optional Cummins 5.0L V8 Turbo Diesel, along with the new 5.6-liter Endurance V8, while the Titan will be available with the 5.6L Endurance V8 and eventually a V6 option.
The Titan single cab will offer a 1,930 maximum payload and a 9,730 max towing capacity. The Titan XD will offer a 2,910 lb. payload with the gasoline engine and a 2,420 lb. payload with the Cummins. The gasoline-powered Titan XD will offer a maximum towing capacity of 11,590 lbs., while the Cummins-powered XD will offer 12,640 lbs.
“The new Single Cab takes TITAN into new territory, bringing the innovative design and bed utility that TITAN has been known for to a wider base of commercial use buyers,” added Miller.
Nissan says the new Single Cab models will be assembled in Canton, Mississippi with the 5.6-liter V8 gasoline engine assembled in Decherd, Tennessee. The 5.0-liter diesel engines are assembled by Cummins, Inc. in Columbus, Indiana.
