Due to Nissan's advanced Intelligent Body Assembly System
and full-floating subframes, Altima rides as smooth
after 100,000 miles as it does right out the factory doors.
Altima is also proof positive that performance need
not come from huge gas-guzzling engines. A 150-hp
2.4-liter DOHC engine provides ample acceleration and you
can travel over 450 miles on a tank of gas. Safety and
protection is a major consideration with Nissan Altima.
Employing the same kind of advanced CAD supercomputers
that is used by NASA, to optimize structural strength,
Altima's integrated safety system also includes: dual-side
airbags, energy-absorbing steering column, front and
rear crumple zones, hood buckling creases, child-safety
rear-door locks, 3-point ALR/ELR seat belt system
and pipe-style steel side-door guard beams.
