If you have a 2023 Nissan Titan and need to know the towing capacity of your truck you have come to the right place.
Here you will find all of the max trailer towing weights suggested by Nissan. The information here is taken in combination with the 2023 Nissan Titan Owner’s Manual and 2023 Nissan Titan Brochure.
The 2023 Nissan Titan can tow between 9,200 lbs and 11,040 lbs depending on the model and trim..
Not all Titans are ready to tow upon purchase. The King Cab is available with towing capabilities, such as a trailer hitch, but other options require additional packages.
When towing with the Nissan Titan, the tongue weight should be between 10-15% of the towing weight and for trailer weights over 5,000 lbs, a weight distributing hitch should be used.
Though I tried to make this information as accurate as possible, you should always check your manual or contact your local dealer to determine the appropriate towing capacity of your vehicle and necessary equipment.
