The 2019 Altima is designed to shake up the midsize sedan market, elevating its competitiveness in the segment with exclusive Nissan Intelligent Mobility technologies such as the advanced ProPILOT Assist (standard on SV and Platinum). It is also the second Nissan model, following the recently launched 2019 Nissan Rogue, to offer Nissan Safety Shield 360 (standard on the SV trim) – which includes Intelligent Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection, Rear Intelligent Automatic Braking, Lane Departure Warning (LDW), radar-based Blind Spot Warning (BSW), Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA) and High Beam Assist (HBA).

The all-new Altima is offered in a concise range of three trim levels – S, SV, and Platinum. All three come equipped with the standard 2.5-litre engine and Intelligent All-Wheel Drive. An exclusive Altima Edition ONE launch edition, based on the Platinum trim, is offered in limited numbers: 250. The Altima Edition ONE features: unique 19″ alloy wheels; Edition ONE floor mats; rear spoiler; illuminated kick plates; and Edition ONE Badge.

The 2019 Altima’s expressive design is lower, longer and wider than the previous generation with a highly balanced, aggressive stance that includes available 19-inch wheels and tires. Inside, the all-new premium interior features a wide “gliding wing” instrument panel – which accentuates the exterior’s low cowl and hood, helping create an open, airy environment.

Nissan softened the edges, sculpted the lines and took the idea of open space inside. Then their engineers quieted everything down. The result — a serene cabin of unexpected spaciousness and luxury, where premium materials combine to create an atmosphere that is simply a class above.

Key interior comfort and convenience features range from standard heated front seats, and power driver’s seat with added bolstering for improved holding and support, to a selection of available audio and infotainment choices, including a Bose® Premium Audio system with nine speakers.

In addition to standard Apple CarPlay™ and Android Auto™, every 2019 Altima comes equipped with standard Bluetooth® Hands-free Phone System, Streaming Audio via Bluetooth®, Hands-Free Text Messaging Assistant, and Siri® Eyes Free voice recognition. Available NissanConnect® Services powered by SiriusXM® provides compatible smartphone and smartwatch access to features such as Remote Engine Start/Stop, Remote Door Lock/Unlock, Valet Alert, and more.

The 2019 Altima offers standard Intelligent All-Wheel Drive for the first time ever on a Nissan sedan in Canada. The 2019 Nissan Altima is offered with a new 2.5-litre DOHC inline 4-cylinder direct injection engine, which is rated at 182 horsepower and 178 lb-ft of torque. The new engine offers improvements in noise, vibration and harshness, along with cleaner emissions and enhanced fuel economy.

Whether you’re changing lanes on the highway or deftly manoeuvring your way out of a parking spot, Altima’s available driver assistance features help you see more, sense more and can even give you an assist when you need it most. All so you can feel exceptionally confident on every drive.

The range of safety and convenience features includes standard Intelligent Emergency Braking (IEB), Rear Door Alert, Intelligent Forward Collision Warning (I-FCW) and Intelligent Driver Alertness (I-DA) on all grades. Intelligent Around View Monitor (I-AVM) is standard on the Altima Platinum.
