One drive inside the new 2010 Nissan Altima Sedan is all it takes to remind you why the Altima has been a fan favorite since its introduction in 1993. For the 2010 model year, the Nissan Altima features a fresh new look, and the same great safety and fuel efficiency that will keep you driving smoothly for years to come.
Under the hood of the new Nissan Altima is a 105,000-mile tune-up-free engine, hooked up to Xtronic Continuously Variable Transmission with Adaptive Ratio Control. Other mechanical features that add to the Altima’s smooth drive include electronic drive-by-wire system, independent strut front suspension, soft-mount front and rear suspension subframes, and Anti-lock Braking System.
The Nissan Altima Sedan is simply amazing inside and out. Its redesigned exterior features a new front fascia with restyled halogen jewel-type headlights, power mirrors, and a new aluminum-alloy hood. Inside the new Altima, you and four others will enjoy HVAC air conditioning, two 12-volt power outlets, power windows and door locks, and a front overhead console with dual map lights and sunglasses holder.
Last but certainly not least, the Nissan Altima Sedan is outfitted for maximum safety, with features like roof-mounted side-impact air bag curtains, Advanced Air Bag System, Traction Control System, front and rear crumple zones, Active Head Restraints, and more.
Test drive the new 2010 Nissan Altima Sedan, back and better than ever.
