Nissan of Melbourne

Jan 16, 2022

What do you desire in a midsize family sedan? Now, sum up all your expectations and multiply it by 2 – that’s the new 2022 Nissan Altima for you. The peppy athleticism that the sedan demonstrates makes the drive quite exciting. In this context, the 2022 Nissan Altima now comes with two new options: The ultrapowerful VC-Turbo engine and the all-wheel-drive option. Let’s begin by taking a peek into its engine.

The Engine and Performance of the 2022 Nissan Altima

The reliable 2.5-liter, 188-horsepower engine now comes with an all-wheel-drive option for those who prefer supreme control over their sedans. The 2022 Altima also sports a new turbocharged variant with a 2-liter engine. It is powered by roaring 248 horses. The engine makes the new Altima significantly faster. In the SR version of the Altima, you get suspensions that are sports-tuned with wheels that are a healthy 19 inches. Besides, the linear feedback of the brake pedal is simply amazing.

The 2022 Nissan Altima Continues to be a Gas Miser

The carmaker claims a fuel economy of 28 mpg in city conditions and 39 mpg on the highway. However, independent trials reveal that the highway economy can be more than 41 mpg at a modest speed of 75 miles per hour and that too with the all-wheel drive. It is the kind of fuel economy that puts it in the league of hybrid cars. Even the powerful VC-Turbo engine is reported to churn out 37 miles per gallon.

Roomy – The Word that Best Defines Altima’s Space

The upholstery, of course, depends on the variant that you choose, but one thing is for sure – you’ll find the legroom in the rear quite comforting. The ergonomically designed armrest makes waiting in traffic tolerable. The seats offer great lumbar support. The sedan can hold a sizeable amount of luggage. The foldable rear seats also double up as extra cargo space if need be. The storage in the front of the 2022 Altima is well thought out with ample space for bottles and cups.
