The 2007 Nissan Altima was unveiled at the 2006 New York Auto Show in April as a 2007 model. It was based on a new D-Platform, tailored and shortened for the fourth generation of the Altima.
The Nissan Altima was revived in 2002 and it was a popular choice for customers interested in a sport-oriented sedan. Its predecessor was known for good road-handling. The 2008 model was improved in the areas where it was criticized.
The car featured a raked front fascia and a sleek roofline. Its curvy lines and bold stance were part of the sporty sedan. In 2009, the Nissan Altima went through a mild facelift that changed the grille and the headlights, making it more appealing to the customers.
On the inside, the Altima was well equipped even in the base trim level. It featured Bluetooth connectivity fitted as standard on all models, Velour cloth seat trim, keyless entry, and push-button start. For the occupant's comfort, the car-maker installed 8 cup-holders for the passengers.
The Altima was offered with a 2.5-liter engine mated to a 6-speed manual as standard. A 3.5-liter V6 and a CVT gearbox were offered as options, on higher trim levels. For the safety systems, the 2008 Altima featured ABS along with electronic brake-force distribution. After the facelift, in 2009, all range was equipped with ESP. Before 2009 it was available only for the V6 model.
