Nissan announced it will offer a newly-developed Cummins V8 turbo diesel in its next-generation full-size pickup. The news came during Nissan 360, an industry showcase of Nissan’s global product and technology portfolio.
The 5.0-liter V8 turbo diesel engine emerged from a partnership between Nissan and Cummins. It’s now in the latter stages of development and testing. Cummins also is developing a version of the engine for its commercial vehicle customers.
Look for the next-generation Titan to add power train options, different cab configurations and several truck bed sizes.
The Cummins engine will be built at the Columbus Engine Plant in Columbus, Indiana. Like the current model, the next-generation Titan will be built at Nissan’s Canton, Mississippi vehicle assembly plant, and its gasoline engines will be cast, forged and assembled at Nissan’s Decherd, Tennessee power train plant.
