The Nissan Altima is one of the most popular Nissan sedans in production in the U.S. for many years. As you would expect from any Nissan car, the Altima offers driver-focused innovation and performance resulting in an excellent driving experience. The 2015 is no exception offering powerful acceleration, refined handling, and an efficient 38 MPG.
The Nissan Altima starts at around $22.300 with a 2.5 liter four cylinder engine. This earns it up to 38 miles per gallon highway and 182 horsepower. This 2.5 liter engine is available in several versions including the S, SV, and SL series.
The standard Nissan Altima comes with remote keyless entry, external temperature monitor in the well-constructed dash, and audio controls on the steering wheel. Bluetooth is also standard for hands-free phone system and connection to the 4 speaker stereo system. Active Understeer Control is also standard which adds to the overall sports car feel and gives you a smooth, controlled, and comfortable ride. Additionally, the 2015 Nissan Altima offers an Xtronic CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission) for smooth shifting, high efficiency, and more of a sports car feel.
Nissan Altima's use the latest innovation to produce a safer ride. Safety features include four-wheel ABS, engine immobilizer for theft prevention, ventilated front disc and solid rear disc brakes, projector-type halogen headlights for increased visibility, as well as emergency braking assist and stability control for unexpected traffic scenarios and adverse driving conditions.
The higher end 3.5 liter Nissan Altima V6 puts out 270 horsepower, that is nearly 100 more than the four-cylinder offering. Despite that mpg stays as high as 32 on the highway and 22 in the city.
The V6 option comes with upgraded leather interiors, heated seats, navigation, and a Bose sound system featuring a total of nine speakers with two subwoofers.
Safety features are expanded to include high intensity xenon headlights, Moving Object Detection, Blind Spot Warning, and Lane Departure Warning. Dual front airbags, which are included on the standard package, can be deactivated based on automatically detected passenger weight to prevent injuries to small children.
Overall, the 2015 Nissan Altima is rated incredibly well in crash tests. Also, customers have remarked that acceleration is incredible even with the smaller engine, and fuel economy does not diminish by much with the larger engine. The Nissan Altima is not the first sedan to challenge the sports car market but it is well known for being one of the best compromises between performance and passenger space and safety.
Long time drivers of the Nissan family of vehicles will tell you all about how often they feel like they are driving one of the best luxury cars for a fraction of the price. While Nissan makes the entry level affordable for all budgets it still includes many premium features and add ons for those looking for more.
