Nissan Altima® Sedan

PAST AND PRESENT MODELS
Since it was first built back in 1992, Altima has evolved through several generations. A few constants remain: timeless good looks, quality materials, plus advanced performance and technology innovations.
Altima Highlights

Xtronic CVT® (Continuously Variable Transmission)
The Altima’s CVT virtually eliminates fixed gears by using a single metal belt that runs around two 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, the CVT responds with the right rpms and engine speed.

Aerodynamics
Those chiseled curves and muscular lines aren’t just for show—they help reduce drag, allowing the Altima to slip through the air with more ease and less resistance than ever. The hood, front fascia, mirrors, and even the taillights, have been engineered to help drop the coefficient of drag to a slippery 0.26[[547]]. A lower coefficient of drag means better aerodynamics and better fuel efficiency.

Advanced Drive-Assist® Display
Advanced Drive-Assist® Display is an innovative new system designed to help minimize time looking away. The crystal-clear, 4.3-inch LCD screen is centered in the instrument cluster and displays call interactions, service warnings and more. Additional available features include navigation settings, text messaging, maps, and travel directions.[[68]]
