Rush hour doesn’t have to feel like a chore. The 2025 Nissan Altima is tuned for everyday ease with its confident power, calming cabin, advanced connectivity, and driver-assist tech. Let’s explore the ways this mid-size sport sedan takes the edge off stop-and-go traffic.

Driving in traffic and merging onto the highway both require quick response, and the Altima delivers. Its 188-horsepower 2.5L engine pairs with an Xtronic continuously variable transmission (CVT) for smooth, quiet acceleration that feels natural in city traffic and relaxed on the interstate. Front-wheel drive comes standard, while available intelligent all-wheel drive monitors road conditions and can automatically adjust power delivery for added traction when rain or snow shows up.

With 27 mpg in the city and 39 mpg on the highway, the Altima makes the most of every gallon. If you want a touch more composure for twisty on-ramps or mountain commutes, upgrade to the SR. This more athletic trim adds a sport-tuned suspension that tightens control without sacrificing day-to-day comfort.

The Altima’s Zero Gravity front seats are designed to support natural posture and reduce fatigue on longer drives. Remote start allows you to get in after your car is already warmed up or cooled down. Available features such as heated seats, a heated steering wheel, and dual-zone automatic climate control make winter morning and summer afternoon drives easier to handle.

Step up to the SL trim for leather seating, a power-adjustable driver seat, and a moonroof that brightens the cabin. Storage is thoughtful too, with wide door pockets and a deep center console for your smaller items, and a spacious trunk for your groceries, gym bag, and tools. If you need to carry more gear or longer items, fold down the rear seats to extend your cargo space to 58.1 cubic feet.

Connection can make even the most stressful commute more enjoyable, and the NissanConnect eight-inch infotainment touchscreen provides that. It features Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and voice recognition for hands-free access to your phone’s calls, texts, navigation, and music. Bluetooth capability and a six-speaker audio system provide plenty of listening options.

For a more upscale tech experience, the SL trim features a 12.3-inch touchscreen with navigation and wireless smartphone integration. It also includes wireless charging and a premium nine-speaker Bose audio system.

One important way the Altima elevates your commute and every drive is by adding peace of mind through driver-assistance features. These include Nissan rear automatic braking, automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, and blind spot warning.

With its efficient power, comfortable interior, and connected technology, the Altima makes the commute feel less like work and more like relaxation. Stop by Alpine Nissan in Denver, CO to test drive one and feel the difference in your everyday routine.
