| Contrà´le technique |
The latest version of the Nissan Altima is now entering its third year, yet it still looks quite fresh inside and out, with a distinctively sportier appearance throughout. The standard 2.5 and 2.5 S versions of the 2009 Nissan Altima are powered by a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine producing 175 horsepower. Underneath the hood of the 3.5 SE and 3.5 SL models is a 270-horsepower version of Nissan’s well-regarded 3.5-liter DOHC V-6; it’s the most powerful Altima ever. Both powerplants can be paired with a six-speed manual transmission or the Xtronic continuously variable transmission (CVT).
