About the 2019 Nissan Altima

The 2019 Altima's expressive design is lower, longer and wider than the previous generation with a highly balanced, aggressive stance that includes available 19-inch wheels and tires. Inside, the all-new premium interior features a wide 'gliding wing' instrument panel – which accentuates the exterior's low cowl and hood, helping create an open, airy environment. It is available in a range of nine dynamic exterior colors.

Key interior comfort and convenience features range from standard 8-way power driver's seat with added bolstering for improved holding and support, to a selection of audio and infotainment choices, including a Bose^® Premium Audio system with nine speakers, and a new digital amplifier with eight channels of custom equalization.

In addition to standard Apple CarPlay™ and Android Auto™, every 2019 Altima comes equipped with standard Bluetooth^® Hands-free Phone System, Streaming Audio via Bluetooth^®, Hands-Free Text Messaging Assistant, and Siri^® Eyes Free voice recognition. Available NissanConnect^® Services powered by SiriusXM^® provides compatible smartphone and smartwatch access to features such as Remote Engine Start/Stop³, Remote Door Lock/Unlock, Valet Alert, and more. Additionally, certain remote features are accessible through the NissanConnect Services Amazon Alexa Skill and Google Assistant Action.

Standard on all grade levels is a new 2.5-liter DOHC inline 4-cylinder direct injection engine, which is rated at 188 horsepower (versus the previous 2.5-liter's 179 hp) and 180 lb-ft of torque (versus the previous 177 lb-ft). More than just the gains in horsepower and torque, the new engine is more refined, quieter and offers improved fuel economy (based on EPA figures).

Replacing the previous-generation Altima's 3.5-liter V6 engine is the company's world's first production-ready variable compression turbo inline 4-cylinder, called the VC-Turbo. It delivers near V6-level performance with 4-cylinder fuel economy. The VC-Turbo seamlessly changes its compression ratio between 8:1 (for high performance) and 14:1 (for high efficiency). The engine delivers 248 horsepower and 280 lb-ft of torque (premium fuel). The new engine is available on Altima SR and Platinum VC-Turbo front-wheel drive grades.

The 2019 Altima also offers available Intelligent All-Wheel Drive for the first time ever on a Nissan sedan in the U.S. The AWD system is available on all trim levels equipped with the 2.5-liter 4-cylinder engine.

The range of safety and convenience features includes standard Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB), Intelligent Forward Collision Warning (I-FCW) and Intelligent Driver Alertness (I-DA) on all grades. Intelligent Around View Monitor (I-AVM) is standard on the Altima Platinum.
