Out of the shadows of the solar eclipse, Nissan revealed new Midnight Editions of its Frontier and Titan/Titan XD pickups. Carrying on in the tradition of earlier Nissan Midnight Edition passenger cars, each of the trucks gets its own blend of noir-themed cosmetics and offer value pricing for this package of extras.
“Following the tremendous response to the original Maxima SR Midnight Edition, we’ve created a complete portfolio of the popular blacked-out Midnight Edition look among our core Nissan sedan, crossover and SUV models,” said Billy Hayes, division vice president sales for Nissan. “We expect the strong customer appeal to continue with the expansion of the Midnight Edition package to our Titan, Titan XD and Frontier pickups.”

“We’re finding that buyers in the millennial age group especially are attracted to the Midnight Editions, noted Hayes. Last year, Nissan was ranked as the number one brand for millennial purchases.” While pricing has not yet been released, Nissan indicated each Midnight Edition package will run about half of what it would cost to add each of the features on an individual basis. These new models will be available in the fall.
