With a four-door sedan, you want to know that you’re receiving an automobile that offers both peppy performance and ample size to accommodate your passengers. One without the other is no good—this isn’t a sports car, after all. Fortunately, the 2016 Nissan Altima 2.5 S delivers both.
There’s plenty to work with under the hood here. This 2016 Nissan Altima offers a 2.5L four-cylinder motor that serves up 182 horses and 180-lb.-ft. of torque. This is good for a sublime 0 to 60 MPH time of only 7.7 seconds. And keep in mind that this engine is mated to a two-speed Xtronic continuously variable transmission (CVT). This mimics an automatic but provides an even smoother experience through the delivery of effectively limitless gear ratios. Sensational!Â
The 2016 Nissan Altima 2.5 S is also super accommodating. The 109.3†wheelbase yields plenty of space for all your passengers. Occupants will have 40.0†of headroom, 45.0†of legroom, and 54.0†of hip room. The rear tells a similar story, with measurements of 37.1â€, 52.1â€, and 36.1â€, respectively.
