2018 Nissan Altima features

If you reference the chart above, it's clear that these two models offer drivers very similar specs. The 2018 Nissan Altima offers a slightly more powerful engine, but drivers do sacrifice one or two mpg on the road. Nissan's Xtronic CVT (continuously variable transmission) makes smooth work of accelerating and decelerating, as well. When it comes down to it, this might just be a battle of features. 

The 2018 Altima and the 2018 Optima both offer drivers a standard six-speaker audio system, a touchscreen color display, rearview cameras, Bluetooth connectivity, power windows and locks, air conditioning with steering-wheel-mounted controls and remote keyless entry. these features are more or less standard for the midsize sedan sector.  The 2018 Nissan Altima, however, adds on  Autonomous Emergency Braking with Intelligent Forward Collision Warning as a standard feature, an option that isn’t standard in any Optima trim, and only becomes available as an add-on feature at EX or SX trim levels.

If you think that the 2018 Nissan Altima may be an option in your search for a new car, schedule a test drive online with Jack Ingram today!
