While Nissan (http://www.autoblog.com/nissan) refines its pickup truck plans and gets ready for an all new Titan in 2014 (http://www.autoblog.com/2010/04/11/report-nissan-still-committed-to-full-size-pickups/), it is doing only a little bit of tweaking to the 2011 Titan (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/titan) and Frontier (http://www.autoblog.com/model/frontier). The Titan swaps three of its four trim level names, with XE becoming S, SE becoming SV and LE becoming SL, and any four-wheel drive model will get a "4x4" badge. More substantively, captain's chairs will be fitted as standard on the top-level SL trim. The 317-horsepower, 5.6 liter V8 remains unchanged.
The name swap carries over to the Frontier, however, with the PRO-4X model keeping its name on the Frontier and Titan. The smaller pickup loses the six-speed manual on the long wheelbase SL King Cab and SV Crew Cab, but gains a six-speed manual option for the lowest trim S model and the PRO-4X short wheelbases. The top line SV trim adds a Luxury Package to its option sheet, and with a little mix-n-match you can get LATCH child safety seats.
The 2011 Titan goes on sale in August, the V6 Frontiers hit showrooms in September, the four cylinder Frontiers in October.
