Nissan has finally gotten around to announcing one of the worst kept secrets of the last 6 months.
They will make a 5.6L gasoline fed V8 available to Titan XD buyers, offering 390 horsepower and 401 lb-ft of torque.
In Nissans words the new 5.6 gasser features variable valve timing, direct injection and 4 valves per cylinder. They also claim a new piston design allows them up compression ratio and performance.
Naturally Nissan says fuel economy will be an improvement over the outgoing truck but failed to mention figures.
They say that gas driven XD's will be available in Crew Cab layout come spring 2016, with the 'regular' Titan following shortly in the summer.
We'll see about that...
