Nissan Altima Dashboard Symbols And Meanings

In this article we will discussed about various Nissan Altima Dashboard Symbols And Meanings.

The 2024 Nissan Altima, especially in the SL trim with all-wheel drive, remains a practical choice in an SUV-dominated market. Despite its dated feel, the Altima offers a blend of familiar comfort and modern necessities. It comes in four trims: S, SV, SR, and SL, with the latter three offering all-wheel drive. The SR can be equipped with a more powerful engine but remains front-wheel drive.

Priced competitively, the Altima starts at $27,400. Although higher trims can reach around $37,295, this includes a comprehensive suite of features. In comparison, a Toyota Camry or Subaru Legacy might offer better value or performance, but the Altima remains a solid, well-rounded option in the midsize sedan market.
