There have been four generations of Altima with the most recent one was introduced in 2007 and on sale now. Ever since its 2002, the Nissan Altima has been a very popular choice among consumers interested in a sport-oriented family sedan. Particularly, the previous-generation car was known for its athletic handling and performance.
The Nissan Altima offers the kind of style and performance one would have expected years ago from its big brother, the Maxima sedan. In recent years, powerful styling has been one of Nissan's characteristics, and the Altima's svelte sheet metal continues this trend. The Altima impresses under the hood as well, with zesty acceleration from the base 2.5-liter engine and downright prodigious thrust from the optional 3.5-liter V6.
A limited-production four-cylinder hybrid model with Toyota-sourced technology is also available in some states. Transmission choices of this car are a six-speed manual or a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT). 2007 model is the best embodiment of Altima. Beneath a sleek skin, the Nissan Altima's overall length is reduced almost 2 inches in contrast of its previous model, which has resulted in slightly less front and rear legroom. However, the interior layout is much improved over the previous-generation Altima. With a price starting from just 19,000 USD, it is considered as overall a good deal.
