In a recent Forbes article, the 2016 Nissan Altima gets high praise. Though the midsize sedan segment is small and shrinking, Forbes notes that the 2016 Altima hopes “to give sedan (shoppers) a reason to become sedan owners.” With its updates to the exterior design, advancements in safety technology, improved driving experience and better fuel economy, the 2016 makes “a strong case against going SUV,” notes Forbes. The new Altima features a new design incorporating a more sleek, aerodynamic “energetic flow”. This includes a new hood, fenders, head and tail lights, and front and rear fascias. The highway fuel efficiency goes from good to great, jumping from 38 to 39 mpg. The 2016 Altima also receives significant tech upgrades with a focus on safety. Included standard are predictive forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking, blind-spot warning and rear cross-traffic alert. Optional radar-based smart cruise control. Also available is a SIRI eyes-free control, through a button on the steering wheel. NissanConnect brings a host of services including emergency calling and remote door unlock. Also new is the SR trim, which brings heightened performance with the 2.5 or the 3.5-liter engine, paddle shifters and a more sporty suspension setup. Forbes praises the new Altima for feeling “more responsive to steering and throttle inputs”, even at the entry-level trim package. Also noted was the drastic reduction in road noise. “All these upgrades, plus higher quality interior materials and a cleaner control layout,” notes Forbes, place the 2016 Nissan Altima at the top of its class.
