Nissan released the all-new 2016 Titan XD at the Detroit Auto Show in January this year. Since then Nissan’s Arizona Test Center has released a web series known as Truckumentary that shows them testing the vehicle in different settings.

In the latest release the test centre takes the Titan up Montana Mountain, Arizona, testing among other things its ability to tow heavy loads under high heat and at a serious incline.

The video shows a light style of testing rather than an all out 4×4 action video.

The Titan XD has an option of three powertrains, including the Cummins 5.0-liter V8 turbo diesel, which boasts 231kW and 752 Nm of torque and is capable of towing 5,443 kg.

It never felt like it was working hard, and after 2 400 kilometres, neither did I.
