When it comes to finding the right truck, both the models in this 2019 Ram 1500 vs 2019 Nissan TITAN comparison can offer good value for the money and plenty of capability. However, the all-new 2019 Ram 1500 delivers some advantages for drivers who want elite features and top capability.
While all models of the 2019 Nissan TITAN come with a 5.6-liter V-8 engine rated for 390 horsepower and 394 pound-feet of torque, the 2019 Ram 1500 has two engine options. The base 3.6-liter V-6 offers less output than the standard TITAN powertrain (though it delivers more efficiency thanks to eTorque electrification and its V-6 design) but the top V-8 option on the Ram offers a bold 395 horsepower and 410 pound-feet of torque. The 2019 Ram 1500 also offers significantly more maximum towing capacity, which makes it the clear choice for drivers who need up to 12,750 pounds of towing or 2,300 pounds of payload capacity.
