Two powerful options:

Altima offers a 270-hp V6 or a 175-hp 4-cylender, both with dual exhaust, and more power and efficiency than before. So no matter which engine you choose, Altima delivers the power you need to blaze through the day in style. How do we offer the smoothest performance ever experienced in Altima? Let us show you.

• Altima's platform features super-strength, lightweight steel for increased rigidity.
  
  
• Quick response thanks to a multi-link suspension design, including a rebound spring located inside each shock absorber.
  
  
• Vehicle-speed-sensitive power steering delivers more power assistance at lower speeds for easier parking, while less of a boost at higher speeds for a more confident feel.
  
  

Altima's CVT offers additional control by tapping the shift lever for manual "upshift" and "downshift".

For total control, the standard 6-speed manual transmission delivers more opportunity to exploit the power of each and every gear.

• A memo pad feature lets you record messages for playback later.¹
  
  
• Store up to 70 telephone numbers.²
  
  
• System automatically mutes music for phone calls.

Going way beyond just navigation.

• Fine Vision gauges and LCD information center are easily read at a glance.
  
  
• Available steering-wheel-mounted controls, including Bluetooth® Hands-Free phone system for ease of use. ¹

Six standard air bags¹

Altima's are built to serve and protect. Because we've got you in mind, the Nissan Safety Shield includes over 50 safety features specifically designed to take care of you. Standard airbags, six of them, and active front-seat head restraints that move up and forward in rear-end collisions are there to help cushion the blow if one should occur. No one could forget the kids, so all Altimas include the LATCH System for easier child seat installation. Just a few of the ways we show our commitment to you and your safety.

¹ Airbags are only a supplemental restraint system; always wear your seat belt. Even with the occupant-classification sensor, rear-facing child restraints should not be placed in the front passenger's seat. Also, in addition to any other requirement of applicable law, all children 12 and under should ride in the rear seat properly secured in child restraints, booster seats, or seat belts according to their size. Airbags will only inflate in certain accidents; see your owner's manual for more details. Inflated airbags shown for illustration purposes only. Actual airbags deflate after deployment.
