At Kirkland Nissan, we understand that the allure of a V6 engine still pulls in many consumers today. But with modern engineering, four-cylinder motors offer incredible â€œpunchâ€ while still offering an exemplary amount of efficiency. This is what â€œMikesCarInfoâ€ covers in his video review of the tremendous 2017 Nissan Altima 2.5 SL below.

Get ready for a driving delight. The Altima 2.5 SL excels with its 2.5L four-cylinder engine. Itâ€™s rated at 179 horses and 177-lb.-ft. of torque. Revolutions per minute (RPM)Â sitsÂ at 6,000 and 4,000, respectively. The ride is super smooth as a function of the sedanâ€™s Xtronic continuously variable transmission (CVT), which delivers a limitless number of effective gear ratios. And efficiency is wonderfulâ€”you wonâ€™t feel a â€œpinch at the pumpâ€ thanks to an EPA-estimated 29 MPG city / 39 highway.

There are some neat optimizations that further benefit the Altima 2.5 SLâ€™s performance. One of note are the active grille shutters. These operate as air-intake vents that shut whenever highway speeds are achieved. The result? An elimination of engine bay wind and a resulting boost in efficiency that provides for the aforementioned MPG rating.
