2016 Nissan Titan XD: Styling & Design - PickupTrucks.com
It can't be easy to make a new pickup truck that doesn't look like every other pickup truck. You're limited to a three-box design with the big differentiation coming in the details of grilles, lights, bodyside moldings and wheels. Still, Nissan has managed to craft something distinctive for the new 2016 Titan XD pickup while still including some design details that can be traced to other automakers' big trucks. Nissan showed us the XD version of the new Titan, reserving a reveal of the light-duty model for later this year, so we can't comment on the styling of that one just yet — but the beefier Titan XD is sure to make its mark when it arrives in... The big grille is flanked by enormous headlights, each featuring a signature LED slash that should prove to be pretty distinctive at night. A new step rail now extends the entire length from wheel to wheel, enabling the rearward part to be used as a bed step. The windshield looks very narrow, even more narrow than the bunkerlike gun slit of the Chevrolet Silverado, but the cab itself retains some of the arching swoop present in the current Titan. The back end is fairly traditional, with large LED taillights flanking a tailgate that features an easy-open-and-close feature. Source: news.pickuptrucks.com
