2024 Nissan Titan King Cab

MSRP Range: $49,140 ^{Price range reflects Base MSRP for various trim levels, not including options or fees.}

The Titan has a standard V8 engine, a comfortable cabin and enough towing capacity for most jobs. It's a perfectly competent full-size light-duty pickup truck. Otherwise, the Titan fails to impress. It doesn't have enough personality to make up for the lack of choice in powertrains, features and body styles that rivals offer. The Ford F-150, Ram 1500 and Chevrolet Silverado 1500 are better trucks overall.

Overview

With the 2024 Titan, Nissan targets the most popular full-size light-duty pickup truck configurations with a focus on value, off-roading and luxury. Every Titan comes with a V8 engine, but the reality is that even with a V8, the Titan falls short of competitors when it comes to towing trailers, hauling payload and fuel economy. The Titan's design and engineering date to 2016, making it the grizzled veteran of the segment, and its age shows. But if you want to drive a truck few other people own, the Titan might be right for you. Learn more by reading the full Edmunds Expert Rating of this Mississippi-made pickup below.

Edmunds spotlight: Is Nissan discontinuing the Titan?

For two decades, Nissan has tried to crack the light-duty full-size pickup truck code with two generations of the Titan. It's been a likable enough truck but the reality is that it hasn't matched the sales success of trucks from Ford, General Motors, Ram and Toyota. Will Nissan keep trying to crack the code? Only Nissan's execs know for sure but we wouldn't be surprised if the Titan gets discontinued in the next year or two.

Competitors to consider

To make up for its considerable shortcomings, the 2024 Nissan Titan would need to offer an irresistibly compelling feature or two to catapult it over one of its rivals. It doesn't, so we recommend checking out our top-rated truck in the segment, the Ford F-150. We'd find it hard to believe the Ford wouldn't meet your needs, but if the F-150 is a non-starter, consider the Ram 1500 for its smooth ride and thoughtful details or the Toyota Tundra for its impressive power and scratch- and dent-resistant cargo bed.

Our Verdict^{The Edmunds Vehicle Testing Team evaluates a fresh batch of vehicles every week, pairing objective assessments at our test track with real-world driving on city streets, freeways and winding roads.

Rated for you by America's best test team.

Performance

6.5/10

How does the Titan drive? You get a standard V8 engine in the Titan. That's fine if you like V8s but other trucks give you a lot more choice. The Titan we tested accelerated from 0 to 60 mph in 7.5 seconds, which is unremarkable for a light-duty pickup with a V8. But the V8, paired with the nine-speed automatic, puts the power to the ground smoothly.

We didn't expect the Titan to raise any eyebrows dynamically. But the steering is surprisingly heavy and cumbersome in a way that hinders maneuverability at low speed. You have to press hard on the brakes for full stopping power, and you feel the weight of this 3-ton truck on winding roads.

Comfort

8.0/10

How comfortable is the Titan? The Titan rides smoothly over even pavement and handles cracks and bumps in the road without upsetting the cabin. It's a comfortable ride made better by the front seats that are cushy and supportive.

The automatic climate control springs into action quickly. But the fans are awfully loud and contribute to high levels of ambient noise that always seems present in the cabin. At speed, there is noticeable wind noise, and you need to speak louder to hold a conversation on the highway.

Interior

7.5/10

How’s the interior? This is a familiar truck interior, with a traditional column-mounted shift lever and clearly labeled large buttons well within reach. Inside there's a lot of hard plastic, but Nissan does a good job of dressing up higher trims with soft materials and wood accents. Passenger space is good in the front and acceptable in the rear, though many rivals in the class are more impressive.

The door handles are huge, and it's easy to climb in and out of the Titan. There's a high, commanding view of the road — taller drivers may actually wish the seat lowered a bit more — and a tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel helps with finding a comfortable position. Front visibility is fine over the hood, but the blind spots are huge, even with large convex sideview mirrors. Thank goodness for the blind-spot warning system.

Technology

7.5/10

How’s the tech? The 9-inch touchscreen that comes on most Titans provides crisp and clear graphics, and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone connectivity is standard. Unfortunately, parts of the screen wash out if you're wearing polarized sunglasses. Also, the rearview camera's resolution is poor and looks particularly pixelated and low-tech on such a high-definition screen. Even the Fender stereo system is only so-so.

Nissan deserves kudos for making Safety Shield 360, its suite of advanced assist features, standard equipment. The adaptive cruise control is especially effective, managing changes in speed smoothly even when other vehicles drift in and out of your lane. We also like the NissanConnect app services that include a live on-call concierge who can troubleshoot tech problems or send directions straight into your vehicle.

Towing and Storage

7.5/10

How are the towing and storage? There is a lot of storage space inside the Titan, but Nissan hasn't made it as clever or configurable as the storage in other trucks. For example, there's a handy soft smartphone grip in the Titan, but it's located in such a way that it takes away from accessible center storage space. The Ram 1500 has a similar smartphone grip, but it is tucked out of the way, pressed against a wireless charging pad.

The Titan's maximum towing capacity when properly equipped is 9,290 pounds. That's enough for a typical trailer but it's far from the best in the light-duty pickup class. Maximum payload capacity of 1,710 pounds is also a bit lightweight. But the bed is spacious, and it's easier to reach over the side than it is in other full-size pickups.

Fuel Economy

7.0/10

How’s the fuel economy? A Titan with 4WD has an EPA-estimated 17 mpg combined in city/highway driving. That's on par with rival V8s, but Nissan doesn't offer a more fuel-efficient engine option as competitors do. Our test Titan returned 18.6 mpg on our mixed-driving evaluation route. Many vehicles we test on this route easily do better than their EPA estimate.

Value

7.0/10

Is the Titan a good value? The Titan has little to offer here. Warranty coverage is average, and there's no way to save on gas with a more fuel-efficient engine. Plus, the Titan is not exactly cheap, which makes hard plastics in the cabin more of an eyesore. It's harder to justify the costs and trade-offs associated with this truck than it once was.

Wildcard

6.0/10

There's nothing that's special about the Nissan Titan. It will get you and a whole lot of stuff where you need to go, but little stands out about the experience besides basic competency. Even the powerful V8 engine lacks character, and some clever touches (such as the smartphone grip) are overshadowed by their unintended consequences.

We typically wouldn't expect a ton of personality from a full-size truck. However, the Titan's competitors have largely figured out how to stand out from the crowd in some way, shape or form. That's an obstacle Nissan has yet to conquer.
