EFFICIENT TECH FOR AN ECONOMICAL DRIVE
With the standard 2.5-liter Direct Injection Gasoline (DIG) engine, Altima delivers an excellent and economical up to 32 combined MPG. [[1602]] -
AN ALL-WHEEL DRIVE ALTIMA
The available Intelligent All-Wheel Drive system continuously monitors road conditions and can respond to changes faster than the blink of an eye. [[1323]]
Altima VC-Turbo engine
Sips like an Altima, thrills like a Nissan Z
While other engines must deal with a fixed compression ratio, the VC-Turbo constantly adapts. It raises or lowers its pistons’ reach seamlessly, variably, and continuously to provide an ideal balance of power and efficiency for every driving situation. [[1602]]
Up to 248 Horsepower [[1279]]
Up to 25/34 City / Hwy MPG [[1602]]
Torque 273 lb-ft [[1602]]
Accelerating
When you press on the gas, the pistons move to produce a lower compression ratio. Similar to when a sprinter crouches to launch off the starting line, it results in instant V6-like power from this mighty 4-cylinder turbo engine. [[1602]]
Cruising
When you are cruising, the rotating assembly transforms to produce a higher compression ratio. And like the more relaxed stance of a long-distance runner, it conserves energy and increases your fuel economy. [[1602]]
From then to now
Nissan engineers spent two decades researching, testing, and refining what would ultimately become the VC-Turbo — the world’s first production variable compression turbo engine. The result: an efficient engine that can transform into a turbo powerhouse and back. [[1602]][[1255]][[1279]]
Altima MPG, efficiency, and transmission
A powerful argument for efficiency
With the 2023 Altima front-wheel drive, you can get up to a combined 32 MPG. [[1602]] Just think about what you could do with all that time saved at the gas pump.
Altima’s 2.5-liter Direct Injection Gasoline (DIG) engine
Altima offers two different engines, including a 2.5L, 4-cylinder Direct Injection Gasoline (DIG) engine that packs some serious fuel economy with up to 39 MPG hwy. [[1602]]
Xtronic CVT® with Sport Mode
Altima’s Xtronic CVT® (Continuously Variable Transmission) features wide ratio coverage for a more efficient drive. Want thrills instead? Engage Sport Mode, and dynamic step shifting simulates traditional gear changes for that familiar sense of exhilaration. [[1602]]
Altima All-Wheel Drive capability
Gripping performance for every season
Imagine a sedan that gives you the kind of capability you usually expect from an SUV. Paired with Altima’s 2.5L engine, the available Intelligent All-Wheel Drive system continuously monitors road conditions and can respond to changes faster than the blink of an eye. [[1602]][[1323]]
Torque distribution
In normal driving conditions, Intelligent All-Wheel Drive sends power to the front wheels for enhanced fuel economy. [[1323]] The system automatically distributes power among all four wheels when it senses you need optimal traction and responsiveness. [[161]]
Active Brake Limited Slip
ABLS uses the vehicle’s braking system to control wheel slippage and transfer power to the wheel with the most grip to improve traction.
Hill start assist
Hill start assist helps stop you from rolling backward by holding brake pressure for a few seconds, giving you time to switch from the brakes to the accelerator.
Altima dynamic driving technologies
Drive like a pro
Altima uses Nissan Intelligent Mobility™ technology to work a little magic behind the scenes, making every drive feel more comfortable, confident, and enjoyable. [[1115]]
Active Ride Control
Bumpy road ahead? Active Ride Control can automatically apply the brakes and adjust engine torque to smooth out your ride, turning mountains into molehills. [[159]]
Intelligent Trace Control
Intelligent Trace Control reads the situation and, if needed, can brake each wheel individually to help you steer smoothly through the corners. [[2003]]
Electronic Parking Brake with Auto Hold
Give your foot a rest at the next stop light. Once your vehicle is stopped, Automatic Brake Hold helps maintain braking force without you needing to keep your foot on the brake. [[159]]
Altima steering and suspension
Even your commute will make you smile
Altima features a stiff chassis for exciting handling and control. With responsiveness and tuning dialed in by our engineers, Altima was made to impress.
Responsive steering
Altima’s steering response is instantaneous, so when a curve appears ahead, you can lean into it. It’s made possible by a dual-pinion, electric-powered steering system, an aluminum housing, and steel mounting brackets. What’s that mean for you? It means improved steering feedback and better control.
Confidence-inspiring suspension
With an independent rear suspension featuring monotube rear shocks, confident handling and stability come naturally. Added suspension reinforcements and increased damper-mounting stiffness also improve vehicle response without impacting ride harshness.
Altima SR
A sport sedan with the emphasis on sport
Sporty 19" wheels make a bold statement off the line, and an exclusive interior with contrasting stitching keeps you riding in style. The Nissan Altima SR features standard paddle shifters that put power at your fingertips, while available suspension and steering tuning make every drive feel like something special.
Altima SR performance
Come for the goosebumps
Altima SR features an available 248-horsepower, 2.0-liter Variable Compression Turbo (VC-Turbo) engine — a world’s first on a production car. [[1602]][[1255]][[1279]]
