Amazing Nissan Altima Hybrid

The Altima carries a 2.5-liter engine that provides 158 horsepower and an electric motor capable of providing an extra 40 horses, for a total of 198 horsepower—that’s 23 more ponies than a standard four cylinder non-hybrid Altima and 11 more than the Camry Hybrid. The Altima Hybrid’s fuel tank, at 20 gallons, is three gallons larger than the Camry’s, boosting the driving range another 100 miles or so.

When it comes to performance, most auto critics give thumbs up to the Altima Hybrid’s satisfying power delivery. Car and Driver had high praise for the car: “Whether we’re comparing conventionally powered versions or hybrids in this class of family four-doors, the Altima always anchors the zesty end of the range, eager, quick, and rowdy. This hybrid really specializes in test-track numbers.”

  1. Altima is looking like a simple model but powerful engine capacity. I think people would like this type of cool sedan.
