At a Glance
Last year's more-refined fourth-generation Altima sedan set sales records and ranked highest among midsize sedans in a J.D. Power and Associates study. The 2008 edition sees ABS with Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD) added to the standard equipment list.
The sleekly designed, front-wheel-drive Altima looks more like a sports coupe than a sedan. Its performance and overall feel also tend toward the sporty side compared to its top-ranked competitors, the Honda Accord and the Toyota Camry. The Altima is fun to drive, economical, well-built, reliable, and roomy.
Available in five trims, the Altima line-up includes the entry-level four-cylinder 2.5, the better-equipped 2.5S
Drivetrain
2008 Nissan Altima
The Altima line-up includes three engines. The 2.5 and 2.5S are powered by a DOHC 2.5-liter, 175-hp four cylinder that gets 180 ft-lbs of torque and was refined with a larger intake manifold, increased compression ratio, and reduced internal friction for its 2007 fourth-generation upgrade.
The 2.5-liter four provides plenty of power for normal driving, with the added value of better fuel economy than the V6. Reviewers recorded mid-7-second 0-60 runs. The EPA rates the 2.5-liter engine/CVT drivetrain at 23/32 mpg on regular fuel.
The optional transmission is Nissan's Xtronic continuously variable transmission (CVT) with manual mode, which allows for six simulated gears, giving the driver a very responsive six-speed "manual" transmission experience. Overall, reviewers credit Nissan with making the best CVT-type transmission. They find it more responsive than a regular automatic and recommend it over the six-speed manual.
Ride & Handling
2008 Nissan Altima
Altima Sedans are highly rated for their sporty handling and responsive engines. One reviewer in a 3.5SL found the suspension quite firm and responsive through switchback turns with good steering feedback, though another review found the steering too light. In general, reviewers found no harshness over rough roads. They credit the Altima's stiff chassis with keeping noise and vibration down, though they could hear bumps being whacked by the front wheels.
Reviewers love the Atlima's CVT transmission because it does everything they command once set in manual mode.
Cabin & Comfort
2008 Nissan Altima
The four-door Altima sedan seats five in its roomy, comfortable cabin. Nissan upgraded the Altima's interior materials last year, and reviewers responded enthusiastically, noting the rich feel of the optional leather appointments and the use of soft materials on padded armrests. Many reviewers comment on the new four-spoke steering wheel, which replaces the previous industrial-designed one, for its originality of design.
Front seats offer a good mix of comfort and support reviewers were surprised at the roominess back there despite the Altima's offering less head- and legroom than its competitors. The rear seats split-fold 60/40 and open onto a 15.3-cubic-foot trunk.
Some reviewers compliment the dash design, center stack, console, and everything inside as integrating simplicity with the feel of quality in a midlevel sedan. The well-laid-out dashboard is populated with comfortable knobs and switches, all within easy reach. Three circular gauges face the driver: tachometer, speedometer, and gas and engine temperature. LCD readouts for trip and various safety and personal data appear in the bases of those larger gauges.
An Intelligent Key with push-button ignition is standard across the Altima line. This "smart key" system allows whoever has the key in his or her pocket to open the locked car with the push of a button on the door handle and start and stop it with the press of a big red pushbutton.
Storage spaces are sprinkled throughout the interior: The base of the center stack has a covered storage bin with a power point deep inside, two cupholders sit between the shift boot and the bi-level center storage bin, with two more in the rear seat, and there are storage bins in the door panels.
The 2.5SL Package includes most of the 3.5SL's features and leather upholstery, but not the V6 engine.
SE's features includes leather upholstery, dual-zone automatic climate control, heated front seats, a power glass sunroof, and more.
Safety
2008 Nissan Altima
Standard safety features on all Altima models include four-wheel ABS disc brakes with electronic brakeforce distribution, frontal and side-impact airbags in front, full side curtain airbags for front and rear passengers, front active head restraints, and a tire-pressure monitoring system.
Altimas are rated safe in government crash tests. The Altima sedan received a top five-star rating in front and side impact tests and a four-star rating in rear passenger side impact tests conducted by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
What Owners Think
2008 Nissan Altima
Owners give high ratings to both the four- and six-cylinder versions of the Altima sedan. Four-cylinder owners love the car's economy, with a number of them reporting 30+ mp. The CVT gets quite a bit of praise. Styling is also a big hit among owners. Overall, owners praise the value and quality of the car, and the "smart key" system receives consistent praise.
