Interior materials, especially evident in dash, console and door panel plastics, are not only the best in Nissan's history, but overall class leading. Fit and finish is up to Japanese high quality standards as well. The power adjustable front seats, that incidentally can be equipped with heated cushions and driver's seat memory, were finished in optional dark gray leather in this show vehicle. While great looking, they are more importantly well bolstered and supportive to the back and thighs. Rear legroom is decent for its King Cab configuration, while offering more rear seat recline than Toyota's Tundra - the new Nissan's future arch rival. The rear seats also flip up for additional interior storage.
Climbing into the cab's back seats shows off what is probably the Titan's most novel, and innovative, feature. After initially opening to a conventional 85 degrees, if pushed further Nissan's 'Wide Open' rear-hinged back doors fold 180 degrees rearward so that they're nearly completely flat against the truck's side. This first-in-class feature makes getting in and out of the rear seats especially easy. How did the engineers accomplish it? A sizable, two-stage hinge with four axis of rotation does the trick. The new doors also make it easier to load bulky cargo that needs to stay dry, while bumps and bruises to the head are less likely to occur - a common problem with rear-hinged doors. The 'Wide Open' doors are featured on both sides of the Titan, and will be standard equipment on all 2004 Titan King Cabs.
