2017 Nissan Altima
Nissan has announced pricing for the 2017 Altima, which
just arrived at dealers across the U.S. Starting from US$ 23,335 (including
destination and handling fees), the 2017 Nissan Altima is available in a choice
of seven trim levels - 2.5, 2.5 S, 2.5 SR, 2.5 SV, 2.5 SL, 3.5 SR and 3.5 SL,
with the sporty SR model accounting already for over 30 per cent of total
sales.
The engine range remains unchanged, utilizing a
182 hp 2.5-litre four-cylinder and a 270 hp 3.5-litre V6. Both engines are
attached to a CVT transmission which Nissan calls Xtronic.
Nissan reckons that models equipped with the 2.5-litre
engine can return a class-leading 39 mpg on the highway. Other highlights
include a long list of active safety systems like Predictive Forward Collision
Warning, radar-based Blind Spot Warning, Intelligent Cruise Control and Rear
Cross Traffic Alert.
All trim levels except the entry-level 2.5 get an
infotainment system with a seven-inch display and NissanConnectSM with
Navigation and Mobile Apps and NissanConnect Services. The 2017 Altima SR
starts from US$ 25,305 (including destination and handling fees) with the
2.5-litre engine, while the same trim level with the 3.5-litre V6 asks for US$ 28,825.
