“The Nissan Titan is a great vehicle for light to medium duty assuming you buy one with the Cummings 5.0 engine.”
2019 Nissan Titan: What's New, Specs & Features
Last updated August 4, 2026

The 2019 Nissan Titan is a light update, not a redesign. Its headline change is a new standard 7-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto across the lineup.
About the 2019 Nissan Titan
Second-generation Titan, final pre-refresh year before the larger 2020 update.
The 2019 Titan is Nissan’s full-size pickup for buyers who want traditional V8 truck feel without stepping into a heavy-duty model. Nissan positions it as a do-it-all truck with one standard V8, multiple cab and bed choices, solid towing ability, and a lineup that ranges from basic work use to off-road driving and near-luxury comfort. Its main differentiator is its simple formula: every Titan gets V8 power, and each trim adds a clear personality instead of a confusing mix of engines.
The 2019 Titan lineup stretches from the straightforward, work-focused S to the more comfortable SL and luxury-oriented Platinum Reserve. The PRO-4X is the trail-focused model, with standard 4WD, a locking rear differential, Bilstein shocks, and skid plates, while Platinum Reserve brings premium leather, heated rear seats, and a surround-view camera.
