Nissan Titan Slips in Crash-Test Results

In a surprising development, the 2021 Nissan Titan crew cab fared worse in a major crash test after getting recent structural changes and at least one additional safety feature for the 2020 model year. For the 2021 model year, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety issued the full-size pickup truck a rating of acceptable in its small overlap crash test for the passenger side (out of good, acceptable, marginal or poor). That’s down from the good rating IIHS issued in the same test for most 2017-19 Titans.

Although such downgrades are rare, it’s important to keep this in context. IIHS regularly conducts six crashworthiness tests, an evaluation of headlight effectiveness, two tests for crash-avoidance technology and an evaluation of child-seat fitment. All but the child-seat test play a role in the agency’s influential Top Safety Pick and Top Safety Pick Plus awards.

The Titan’s downgrade comes in one of the six crashworthiness tests. The news doesn’t necessarily mean the Titan got less safe for 2021, and possibly 2020, though not all testing was performed on a 2020 model. (Nor is the opposite necessarily true; you’ll have to weigh your own needs.) Nissan added automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, a critical safety technology, as standard equipment beginning with the 2020 model year. The system passed IIHS’ tests with flying colors for both vehicle and pedestrian detection.
