The 2024 Nissan Altima provides a relaxed ride with impressive fuel economy, and there’s room to spare in the cabin. It continues the legacy it’s held for 30 years as a capable and reliable family sedan. Let’s look at some of its standout features and see why you should stop at our Nissan dealership in Bowie, MD to take a look at it in person.

Fantastic Fuel Economy

There are multiple engine options available on the Altima, and each has a very impressive fuel economy. Forward-wheel drive S and SV models with the 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine under the hood can achieve 27 mpg in the city and 39 mpg on the highway. If you opt for an all-wheel drive model, then expect around 26 mpg and 36 mpg in the city and on the highway respectively.

If you opt for the turbocharged 2-liter engine, then expect around 25 mpg while doing day-to-day driving in the city and 34 mpg during highway driving conditions. Some all-wheel drive Altima models have been able to achieve 41 mpg while driving at 75 mph on the highway, so it’s possible to achieve an even better fuel economy than predicted.

Spacious Cabin with Storage

The Altima’s interior is clad in materials that are pleasant to touch, though the specific materials used vary depending on the trim. The switchgear dots on the dashboard are user-friendly, and the front seats offer lots of lumbar support to help drivers stay engaged during long trips. The Zero Gravity Seats also help minimize pressure spots while sitting for long periods. The wide seats in the front and back make sure nobody feels boxed in.

There are deep door pockets in the front that you can store your personal belongings in, and the trunk has room for six carry-on bags. If you fold the back seats flat, then you can fit around 17 carry-on bags in the cabin. Specifically, you have 15.4 cubic feet of room in the trunk and 58.1 cubic feet with the back seats folded down.

Modern Safety Technology

The Altima has several technology-based safety features that provide enhanced ride security and peace of mind. The available ProPILOT Assist is what many drivers would know as cruise control, and it helps you maintain a safe distance from the car in front, adjust your speed, and stop when the car ahead of you stops. A 360-degree Around View monitor helps with parking, and forward collision warning gives you a heads-up if there’s a hazard in your path.
