The Shapeshifter
Whether it’s turbocharged power or fuel-sipping economy, Altima's all-new VC-Turbo engine responds to your input instantaneously. It literally changes shape as it adjusts the compression ratio to maximize output or fuel economy.
When you press on the gas, the piston moves to produce a lower compression ratio. Similar to when a sprinter crouches to launch off of the starting line, it results in instant V6-like power from this mighty 4-cylinder turbo engine.
When you cruise at lower speeds, 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.
Opt For Maximum Fuel Economy
The all-new 4-cylinder Direct Injection Gasoline (DIG) engine that packs some serious fuel economy. With quicker, quieter, and smoother performance, it proves that efficiency doesn’t have to be a compromise.
Altima's Xtronic CVT features dynamic step shifting, wider gear ratio coverage, and an adaptive shift controller. The result is a more connected, spirited driving experience – all without sacrificing fuel economy.
Drive Like A Pro
Whether it’s stop-and-go-traffic, your favorite on-ramp, or just an annoying speed bump, the Nissan Altima uses Nissan Intelligent Mobility technology that works a little magic behind the scenes to help make every drive feel more comfortable, confident, and enjoyable.
Bump? What bump? Intelligent Ride Control can automatically apply the brakes and adjust engine torque to smooth out your ride, turning those mountains into molehills.
Drop Off The Kids, Hug The Curves
The all-new Nissan Altima features a new chassis for exciting handling and improved control. And with responsiveness and tuning dialed in to impress, our engineers didn’t cut any corners – but you can.
