Design We made
a big deal,
even of the
little things
Detailed. Right down to the details.
Chrome’s appeal lies in its deeply reflective qualities. Even distant objects look as sharp reflected in chrome as they would if you were looking at them directly. A fine point admittedly, but it shows you how much thought we put into even the smallest details, starting with our badge. Just wait ‘til you see what we did to the rest.
Design Premium Space.
Premium Spaciousness.
Luxury interior design.
We softened the edges, sculpted the lines and took the idea of open space inside. Then we quieted everything down. The result - a serene cabin of unexpected spaciousness and luxury, where premium materials combine to create an atmosphere of class that is simply a class above.
Design The most beautiful
Altima you’ve ever built
Stunning exterior design.
The premium exterior design of the all-new 2013 Nissan Altima is achieved through laser-measured panel fit and and sculpted steelwork. But to really appreciate what we built-in to our most innovative Altima ever, you’ll need to finish it - your way. See All Details & Specs
Performance Go. Or just go farther.
Outstanding acceleration. Incredible efficiency.
Go for the thrill of the all-new Altima’s award-winning, pulse- racing, 270HP V6 engine for thrilling performance. Or go 38 miles per gallon with our 4-cylinder for best-in-class fuel economy[*] and better acceleration than Altima’s direct competitors[*].
PerformanceOur CVT
has evolved.
Again.
Next generation Xtronic CVT®
The Altima’s CVT virtually eliminates gears by using a single metal belt that runs around a pair of variable-diameter pulleys. Once a transmission isn’t limited by fixed gears, it can operate far more effectively. So whatever your right foot asks for, CVT responds with the perfect engine speed.
What can the next generation XTRONIC CVT® do for you?
Altima
loves
corners...
Active understeer control
The all-new 2013 Nissan Altima’s Active Understeer Control system sets even the sharpest turn straight. It works by braking the inside wheels for better control through corners for a more confident feel behind the wheel.
370Z
corners...
Redesigned rear suspension
Altima’s 370Z-inspired multilink rear suspension has been redesigned to deliver instant steering response and maximum tire contact for handling that’ll tackle the passing lane as easily as the carpool lane.
European
luxury car
corners
ZF Sachs shocks
The all-new 2013 Nissan Altima comes equipped with ZF Sachs shock absorbers. You know, like the ones found on luxury cars from BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Porsche... Yeah, those ones.
Performance Ripped
Lighter. Faster. Stronger.
To deliver the all-new 2013 Nissan Altima’s best-in-class fuel economy[*] and competition-shaming acceleration[*], we put it on a diet. First, we used ultra-high strength steel and aluminum to lighten Altimas’ body and chassis. Then we lightened the engine and improved overall aerodynamics. The result - heavyweight performance and fuel economy in a lightweight package.
Aerodynamic
We built the all-new 2013 Nissan Altima to slip through the air with more ease and less resistance than ever because frankly, drag is a drag.
Outstanding
acceleration
Hit the gas and the all-new 2013 Nissan Altima will propel you from 0-60 faster than Camry, Accord, or Sonata[*] and quicker than you can say "hang on".
PUREDRIVE™
The all-new 2013 Nissan Altima 2.5 wears the PUREDRIVE™ badge, meaning it meets or exceeds the Federal CAFE fuel economy standards for 2016, reflecting our commitment to continue developing environmentally friendly technology for all.
Street smarts
Intelligent technology
What if your car could tell you when its tires had enough air? If it warmed itself up or cooled itself down for you without you even being there? Or turned on the headlights automatically in the rain? Would you call it smart, or simply brilliant?
Clever,
right down to
your coccyx
Zero-Gravity Seats
NASA research determined the posture astronauts naturally take in the weightlessness of space. Nissan Engineering used this research to develop front seats that optimize comfort and reduce fatigue. Thanks for the tip guys.
Technology Never lose sight
of what’s important
Advanced Drive-Assist™ Display [*]
From optional turn-by-turn navigation, to caller ID, the new Advanced Drive-Assist™ Display does it for you in one central location. It’s specially designed to make it easy for you to get info quickly, allowing you to focus on what matters most - driving.
Altima’s got your back...
Safety Shield Technologies
Altima includes over 50 safety features specifically designed to take care of you. Standard air bags, [*] six of them, are there to help protect everyone on board. No one could forget the kids, so every Altima includes the LATCH System (Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children) for easier child seat installation. In addition, Altima can be equipped with Blind Spot Warning, [*] Moving Object Detection, [*] and Lane Departure Warning systems. [*]
-
Lane Departure Warning [*] Using the rearview camera to monitor the lines on the road, the Lane Departure Warning System gives you both visual and audible alerts if you unintentionally stray from your lane.
-
Moving Object Detection [*] If Altima’s RearView Monitor [*] detects something moving behind your vehicle while in reverse, it gives both visual and audible alerts. Change the camera angle for a wider perspective.
-
Blind Spot Warning [*] If a vehicle is in your blind spot area, an indicator appears next to the side mirror, and on the Advanced Drive-Assist™ Display. Signal to change lanes, and a chime and warning light alert you to a vehicle in your blind spot.
...And ready to light
the way forward.
Enhanced headlights
Automatic headlights respond to light conditions outside. And if your wipers are on so are the headlights - automatically after 4 swipes. Illuminated driving courtesy of Altima.
Nissan Intelligent Key® with Remote Engine Start System
Your exclusive pass to your Altima
The Nissan Intelligent Key lets you tap a button on the door handle or trunk to unlock them while your keys stay in your pocket or purse. And the available remote engine start system lets you warm up or cool down your Altima before you get in.
