Are you wanting a vehicle with all-wheel drive, but fear you are relegated to an SUV or truck? Think again. Nissan just unveiled its 2019 Altima at the New York International Auto Show, along with some exciting news. The next generation sedan will feature standard all-wheel drive across its line-up.

This offering comes at a time when the family sedan market is shrinking and the crossover SUV segment continues to grow. But, for drivers who donâ€™t want the fuel economy numbers of a full-sized vehicle or havenâ€™t a need for acres of cargo room, a sedan makes perfect sense. And now, with the 2019 Altima, Seattle area drivers will get the best of all worlds with all-wheel drive matched to the peppy performance of a four-door sedan.

The 2019 Altima will feature Nissanâ€™s Intelligent AWD system, which uses an advanced torque split control strategy that automatically redistributes forces to the wheels based on real time driving conditions and wheel slippage. This AWD system even works in conjunction with the Altimaâ€™s brake-based limited-slip differential and Hill Start Assist to manage accelerations on slick and steep inclines. No matter the season or terrain, nothing will slow down this sedan.

The all-new Altima is expected to arrive in North American dealerships this fall. Until then, excitement is certain to grow for this all-wheel warrior. To learn more about the Altima and its specs, contact our team at Kirkland Nissan in Seattle, Washington.
