The Nissan Altima's most notable distinction in the midsize sedan segment is that it offers AWD — the only midsize car in its class to do so. The VC-Turbo engine adds a variable compression system that adjusts between efficiency and power depending on demand, reaching up to 248 horsepower. At Jeff Wyler Fairfield Nissan, we carry the Altima from S through Platinum across both powertrain options. If you commute in an area where winter weather is a factor and want sedan efficiency with AWD traction, the Altima makes a compelling case that the Accord, Camry, and Sonata can't match.
