Cruise in style and comfort, Seattle! The 2016 Nissan Altima 2.5 SL is a super sedan that pushes ahead of competitors with an excellent attention to detail when it comes to performance and conveniences. “CarGurus†has the verdict below.
Let’s check under the hood first. The 2016 Altima SL wows with its 2.5L four-cylinder engine that definitely punches above its weight class. With 182 HP and 180-lb.-ft. of torque, it will send you happily and speedily along your way across Seattle, Bellevue, and Renton. It follows this jab of performance with a heck of an efficient hook, too—the car comes with an EPA-estimated 39 highway / 27 city average MPG.
Comfort and convenience are in no short supply on the Altima, either. As you settle down into the supple leather seats, you’ll find they are heated in the front for your enjoyment during those chillier days. Dual-zone automatic climate control helps in this regard as well, keeping both sides of the sedan content. Also, when driving at night in tougher conditions, the fog lights really come through to improve visibility. And when you need to stow items for a trip, it’s pleasant and reassuring to know that trunk storage stands at 15.4 cubic feet—above the class average of 14.4.
