There are a lot of things you’re likely looking for when you search for a new sedan. But while there are many nitty gritty details which can make or break a buying experience, ultimately, the cornerstone of any automobile purchase is safety and performance. YouTube consumer channel “Fuel Economy” takes the 2017 Nissan Altima for a spin and comes away suitably impressed in this regard.


The 2017 Nissan Altima is a supremely crashworthy vehicle. Tests conducted by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) have yielded fantastic results, with perfect scores of “Good” in six separate examinations. These categories include Moderate Overlap Front, Roof Strength, Head Restraints & Seats, Driver-side, Passenger-side, and Side. Included technologies like lane departure warning further provide for the security of you and your loved ones by issuing an audible alert whenever you veer from your path.

Performance is stellar, as well. The car offers a Xtronic continuously variable transmission (CVT) which provides an unlimited number of effective gear ratios, enabling an uncommonly smooth shifting sensation. Additionally, a rear spoiler reduces drag and active grille shutters close once highway speeds are reached, mitigating engine bay wind and increasing efficiency. In fact, the Altima boasts an impressive 39 MPG highway rating as a result.
