The Nissan Altima, a roomy and practical midsize sedan, has been completely redesigned for the 2008 model year, with slightly more sporty handling and a little more extrovert styling than the competition. The Altima sits at the top of the class in terms of power. Available are a 2.5-litre four-cylinder and a 3.5-litre V6, both with a choice of six-speed manual or CVT automatic transmissions.

Also available are power mirrors, optional electric seats, sunroof, cruise control, leather, 17-inch alloy wheels and HID headlights. ABS brakes with Electronic Brake-force...

Known Problems
Mechanically reliable, except for CVT automatic transmission, with various reports ranging from minor rattling noises at low speeds, lack of power on throttle followed by a sudden surge, or complete failure by 100,000 km, and yet many report no problems. Very few report problems with intelligent keyless entry system, such as car not turning off, likely related to weak key-fob battery.
