Both the Ford Super Duty and Nissan Titan XD come in various configurations and trim levels to suit different needs and budgets. In this comparison, we're focusing on the base trim levels: the 2024 Ford F-250 XL Crew Cab 4x4 and the 2024 Nissan Titan XD Crew Cab SV 4x4. In this comparison, both trucks have the same drivetrain type (4x4) and cab configuration (Crew Cab), making for a more direct comparison.
Under the hood, the Ford Super Duty F-250 XL offers a slight edge in terms of power and torque. Equipped with a 6.8-liter engine, it produces 405 horsepower and 445 pound-feet of torque. This power is paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission for smooth and efficient power delivery.
The Nissan Titan XD Crew Cab SV, on the other hand, is powered by a 5.6-liter engine that generates 400 horsepower and 413 pound-feet of torque. While the power output is comparable to that of the Super Duty, it uses a 9-speed automatic transmission.
One of the most significant differences between the Ford Super Duty and Nissan Titan XD lies in their size and capacity. The Super Duty is generally larger and more capable, making it a better choice for those who need to tow or haul heavy loads. The Titan XD, while still a powerful truck, is slightly smaller and may not be as well-suited for the most demanding tasks.
