What's New for the 2018 Nissan Altima?

The Nissan Altima body style is undeniably well-crafted, and this may be one of the top reasons why you are taking a closer look at what the 2018 Altima offers for your next sedan purchase. The good news is that the exterior design that you may already love has not changed for 2018. You can even make a selection from six eye-catching colors for the exterior. The primary changes that you will find between last year's Altima and the new 2018 model are found inside the car. All six of the 2018 Nissan Altima trims now have a safety feature with autonomous brakes connected to a forward collision advanced warning system. They also all come with adaptive cruise control. Auto buyers who purchase the highest trim level, which is the 3.5 SL, will also benefit from an integration system that pairs your smartphone seamlessly with the car's system.

Trims & Features

The new features available in the 2018 Altima are instrumental in taking your driving experience to incredible levels. Some of these features that are found in each of the six trim levels include heated side mirrors, hands-free entry, a keyless ignition system, a backup camera, a leather-wrapped steering wheel with power steering, cruise control on the steering wheel, a power driver's seat and an impressive sound system. Lower trim levels have cloth seats, and this includes the 2.5 S, the 2.5 SR and the SR Special Edition. Some of the higher end trim levels are the SR Midnight Edition, the 2.5 SV and the 3.5 SL. Some higher end trims have leather seats as a standard feature. You can more easily compare the features in different trim levels when you head to a nearby Nissan dealership to see the trims in person.

Horsepower

When you test drive the Altima at our Nissan dealership, you will immediately notice how well this sedan performs on the road. Notably, the lower end trims have a four-cylinder, CTV 2.5-liter engine. This engine is capable of delivering an amazing performance with 179 horsepower and 177 foot-pounds for the torque rating. An advanced power experience is available with a 3.5-liter engine available in the most advanced Altima trim for 2018. From its stellar turn radius and continuously variable automatic transmission to its controls for excellent traction and stability, this is a vehicle that is well-designed from a mechanical standpoint.

Safety

Some of the standard safety features that are found in each of the six Altima trims include rear child seat anchors and door locks, a blind spot detection function, a pre-collision safety feature, ventilated disc brakes, an anti-theft alarm system with remote capabilities, auto delay off and daytime running headlights and an immobilization function for the engine.
