The Nissan Altima is a comfortable, fuel-efficient, and stylish midsize sedan that delivers solid value to drivers at a modest price. The J.D. Power Awards has recognized past models for being reliable, quality vehicles. We see many loyal Altima drivers at our dealership who have been fans of this sedan for years. Its classic looks make the Altima a model that wears well and one that drivers are proud to pull up to any event or meeting in. It’s an outstanding car for corporate professionals, small families, or any driver who needs good fuel economy paired with sophisticated styling and spacious seating.
While “practical” and “convenient” are two words that many might use to describe the Altima (and they’d be correct), we also like to make sure that performance-minded drivers know what a joy this sedan is to drive. With terrific handling and good suspension, the Altima should satisfy those who are particular about their behind-the-wheel experience. If you’ve always been an Altima driver and are ready to check out the new 2024 Nissan Altima, or you’ve seen this vehicle on the road and are interested in learning more about it, we’d love to walk you through the features of this year’s model. It’s better than ever, and we have it at Illini Nissan.

The 2024 Nissan Altima delivers a comfortable behind-the-wheel experience for the driver and a pleasant ride for passengers. Nissan designed this year’s model with thoughtful performance elements that will make you feel as if the Altima is predicting your next move and supporting you during challenging maneuvers.
The available Intelligent All-Wheel Drive system is one such intuitive system. It constantly monitors road conditions, and when it detects wheel slip, it sends the appropriate amount of power to the rear wheels to give you all-wheel drive control. This is a feature we like to show drivers who are considering making the switch from an SUV to a sedan but aren’t sure whether a sedan can handle slippery road conditions. While some smaller sedans might not have all-wheel drive, the midsize Altima continues to give drivers the traction they've been used to in SUVs on wet and slippery roads.
Do you drive on some roads during your daily commute that aren’t well maintained? The 2024 Nissan Altima boasts Active Ride Control. This technology applies a gentle amount of braking pressure when you go over a bump to minimize vehicle pitching and ensure a smooth ride. The 2024 model also enjoys Intelligent Trace Control, which makes cornering safer. It can detect when your Altima drifts from your steered path and then gently brakes targeted wheels to restore the vehicle to its intended course. Whether you travel the same roads regularly or explore new ones, the 2024 Altima has systems in place to keep you in control.
We have to mention how good the fuel economy is in the 2024 Nissan Altima. Trim levels with a 2.5L, four-cylinder engine have an EPA mileage rating of up to 32 MPG combined, 27 MPG in the city, and 39 MPG on the highway. Drivers who want the thrilling 248 hp and 273 lb-ft of torque you get with the turbocharged 2.0L VC I-4 will still enjoy mileage in the mid-20s and 30s. If you are looking to spend less time and money at the gas pump, we highly recommend checking out the Altima. Both engines get solid gas mileage.
We also want to point out that there is a performance-oriented trim for the 2024 Altima. The SR trim level adds fun features like paddle shifters with manual shift mode and a sport-tuned suspension. If you want to do a bit of spirited driving, check out the 2024 Altima SR.
Because the Nissan Altima is such a popular commuter vehicle, many customers ask us about this sedan's comfort and convenience features. The 2024 Altima has several standout features that will make long drives more enjoyable, starting with its Zero Gravity front seats. These ergonomic seats have been designed to support 14 pressure points on the body that traditional car seats don't, minimizing body fatigue on long drives.
Thanks to its standard six-way manual adjustability and available eight-way power adjustability, it’s easy to set the Altima's driver’s seat to the perfect position for your comfort. There is even available driver’s seat lumbar support to help out your lower back. Thanks to available heated front seats and an available heated steering wheel, the 2024 Altima is prepared to keep you warm and toasty on cold days.
Commanding the 2024 Altima’s cabin temperature is made even easier with the available Remote Engine Start System and available Intelligent Climate Control. Through your Nissan Connected Services account, you can use Intelligent Climate Control to check, adjust, and even schedule the interior temperature of your Altima. Then, with Remote Engine Start, you can start the ignition before getting in the vehicle and get that climate control system working before you begin your journey so you can always enter a perfectly warm or cool cabin.
The 2024 Nissan Altima also enjoys spacious and configurable cargo options. Its trunk has 15.4 cu.ft. of space, which is just right for luggage for a weekend getaway or daily cargo needs. When you have to get longer or bulkier items in the Altima, simply utilize the 60/40-split second row to extend the cargo area. With both rear seats down, you’ll have 58.1 cu.ft. of cargo space.
Stay connected and informed in the 2024 Nissan Altima with its fantastic array of technology features. You can use your favorite smartphone apps right on the Altima’s touchscreen without even plugging them into the USB port, thanks to wireless smartphone connectivity.
You’ll never miss another email or struggle to look up directions with the available Wi-Fi hotspot. The hotspot can connect to seven devices, so you and each of your passengers can enjoy in-vehicle internet on their devices. Whether you have kids who need to do homework on the way to sports practice or adult passengers who need to send off a work document from the car, everyone can handle their Wi-Fi-dependent tasks in the 2024 Altima.
Getting quick answers to your questions and handling other activities like making calls is easy with voice recognition technology. Simply say, “Hello, Nissan,” and ask the system to pull up gas stations along your route, check the traffic report, get tonight’s weather, and more. With available Alexa Built-in, you can even use one of the most popular virtual assistant technologies right from your driver's seat. Make Amazon purchases, control Alexa-enabled smart home devices, and more—all from your car.
If you want to drown out exterior noise, take advantage of the available Active Noise Cancellation. This smart system monitors engine and cabin noise and creates opposing signals to cancel out unwanted sounds, creating a serene and quiet environment. Pair that with an available Bose sound system; you can hear just what you want and how you want it.
Also available for the 2024 Nissan Altima is Nissan’s Virtual Key feature. It lets you turn your smartphone into a key, so you can lock, unlock, and start your Altima, all from your smartphone or Apple Watch.
