Posted on May 15, 2020
There's always been a debate over which pickup truck is the best. Is it the Ford F-150? The Chevrolet Silverado? The Toyota Tundra? Here at South Trail Nissan, we may be a little biased when we think that the best pickup truck on the market currently is the 2020 Nissan Titan in Calgary. To back up our claims, we've put together some pertinent facts for a 2020 Nissan Titan vs the Dodge Ram 1500 showdown. Gentlemen, start your engines.
The Truck of Legends
Named for the Titans of Greek mythology, the Nissan Titan is a god among pickups. It boasts the most standard power, tech, and safety features in its class. That's because the Titan was built on one simple principle: provide drivers with a dependable, powerful truck. It also comes with Canada's Best Truck Warranty: a 5 year or 160,000 km comprehensive warranty. There are 6 model options to choose from. We've listed the key details below:
Every Titan model boasts a 5.6 L DOHC 32-valve V8 engine with 400 horsepower and 413 lb-ft of torque. Along with Best-in-Class standard horsepower and torque, the Nissan Titan wears the crown for the most standard safety technology and the largest standard Apple CarPlay compatible screen in its class.
The Competition
The Dodge Ram 1500 offers a plethora of models and trims, but can it compete with the Titan? Here are the key stats:
The Ram 1500 offers two engine options: the 3.6 L Pentastar VVT V6 with 305 horsepower and 269 lb-ft of torque and the HEMI V8 with 395 horsepower and 410 lb-ft of torque. It does boast a fairly impressive max towing capacity of 4,858 kg and a max payload of 871 kg. As you can see, it's not quite up to speed with what the Titan has to offer in terms of power and efficiency, albeit at a lower price point but you get what you pay for.
While the Ram 1500 may have won more awards than the Nissan Titan, it doesn't offer as many standard features. Simply put, if you're looking for a pickup truck that offers you the best power and efficiency and is loaded with standard safety and tech features all at one straightforward MSRP, the Nissan Titan is the one for you. We'd be more than happy to set you up with a test drive and show you all the great things the Titan has to offer. Come find your perfect Nissan Titan pickup at South Trail Nissan today.
