Performance
The sophisticated Nissan Altima comes with a standard four-cylinder engine that churns out 188 horsepower with front-wheel drive and 182 horsepower with all-wheel drive. The optional turbo-four is a good choice for shoppers who want more accelerating power because it churns out 248 horsepower. Both powertrains feature a continuously variable transmission.
No matter the engine you choose, you will still get excellent gas mileage ratings. The base engine records an EPA-estimated 33 mpg combined city and highway, whereas the optional turbo-four registers 29 mpg combined. This Nissan sedan maneuvers well in tight places and cornering situations, thanks to its agile handling.
Safety
Safety is always a priority for most modern vehicles. With the Nissan Altima, you will come across electronic stability control, a computerized safety tech engineered to make the vehicle stable by detecting any loss of traction. The safety tech falls under the ABS safety group, along with the driveline traction control that comes in handy in harsh road conditions. An airbag system is also standard and activates automatically when an impact fills the cabin with airbags. In addition, it has a forward automatic emergency braking tech and driver drowsiness monitoring. Traffic sign recognition and a 360-degree parking camera system are optional.
