Used Nissan Altima at Kayser Used Cars for Madison, WI

The Nissan Altima is a solid pick for a mid-size sedan or coupe, particularly if you are looking for something with some sporting flair. The Altima is fun for the whole family, in which the fun factor depends largely on what engine you choose. The V-6 version, known as the 3.5 SR, comes standard with a sport-tuned suspension that trades some ride comfort for sharper handling, making the Altima feel more like a sport sedan than a family sedan.

Under the Altima's Hood

The 2.5-liter four-cylinder does almost everything you want a four-cylinder to do. It revs smoothly, and it provides good off-the-line acceleration with three adults aboard, though as you might expect, power for passing on two-lane roads is relatively modest. The Altima provides that commuter with power and decent gas mileage at 23 mpg in the city and 32 mpg on the highway. But the 3.5 SR adds nearly 100 horsepower for a total of 270 and has nearly as good gas mileage, getting 20 mpg in the city and 27 mpg on the highway.

Design of Nissan Altima

The Altima base model includes anti-lock brakes, stability and traction control, power locks, air conditioning and push button start/stop. There is an audio system with CD player, Intelligent Key keyless entry and offers the luxury-oriented SL Package as an option. In addition to V6 power, this car appeals to enthusiasts with a sport-tuned suspension and performance tires. On the safety front, all Altimas feature front, front-side and side-curtain airbags.
