The 30 Most Powerful Trucks on the Road

2018 Nissan Titan XD – 555 lb.-ft.

The 2018 Nissan Titan XD made headlines upon its arrival for multiple reasons, including its ability to straddle the line between a light-duty and heavy-duty pickup. This diesel-powered version runs on a 5.0-liter turbodiesel V8 from Cummins. That V8 provides 555 pound-feet plus 310 horsepower, controlled via the six-speed Aisin automatic. Experts say that the V8 was designed for RAM despite its spot in the Nissan lineup. You can also maximize the off-road-worthiness of this auto with the PRO-4X trim that has skid plates, electronic locking rear differential, and Bilstein off-road shocks.
