2018 Nissan Altima SV

About 2018 Nissan Altima As Nissan's top-selling sedan, Altima sets a high standard in its class -- and has a high level of standard equipment and features. For the 2018 model year Altima models include Nissan's advanced Automatic Emergency Braking and Intelligent Forward Collision Warning. In addition, the top of the lineup Altima 3.5 SL receives standard Intelligent Cruise Control and upgraded NissanConnect with Navigation and Services, featuring Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The new model year also brings a simplified model lineup: 2.5 S, 2.5 SR, 2.5 SV, 2.5 SL and 3.5 SL (base 2.5 and 3.5 SR are no longer available) and revised option package content and availability. Among the new or revised option packages are the 2.5 SR Special Edition and 2.5 SV and 2.5 SL Technology Packages. All of these enhancements, along with its dynamic exterior appearance, refined interior and long list of available safety, security and convenience features, ensure that Altima will continue as one of the top choices for mid-size sedan buyers in 2018. The four 2.5-liter models feature a 179-horsepower 2.5-liter 4-cylinder engine, while the 3.5-liter Altima SL model offers a 270-horsepower 3.5-liter V6. The 2018 Altima fully embraces Nissan's bold design language. Known by designers as "energetic flow," it's expressed in the Altima by the low muscular front fascia, distinctive "V-motion" grille and deep bumpers. Altima also features an Active Understeer Control system, which utilizes intelligent control logic and high-response brake actuators to lightly brake the inside front wheels during cornering (as required) to increase yaw-moment. Using the Vehicle Dynamic Control/Traction Control System as its base, Active Understeer Control is almost undetectable when it operates.
