You know that feeling when you effortlessly do something that should be hard? That’s the Titan XD’s secret sauce. Its 5.6-liter Endurance V8 engine delivers 400 horsepower and 413 lb-ft of torque. And with a nine-speed automatic transmission, it shifts so smoothly you’ll forget you’re dragging half your garage behind you.
Here’s the kicker: it doesn’t feel like work. The integrated brake controller, trailer sway control, and rearview camera with hitch guidance make backing up a trailer feel like playing a video game. You’ll actually hear yourself say, “Oh, that’s it?”

XD stands for “Extra Duty.” Nissan didn’t just slap a badge on a standard Titan. They beefed up the frame, added a heavier-duty rear axle, and installed a massive 5.6-liter engine that drinks fuel like a thirsty horse but rewards you with relentless torque. It’s the middle child that’s secretly the favorite.
