New 2011 Nissan Altima Now For Sale in San Antonio TX

The 2011 Nissan Altima, now available at local Nissan San Antonio dealer, is available in sedan and coupe body styles. There are three trim levels: 2.5, 2.5 S and 3.5 SR. The base sedan is the 2.5, which is only available by customer order. Standard equipment includes 16-inch steel wheels, cruise control, keyless entry, full power accessories, a tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel, air-conditioning and a trip computer.

Performance and Safety

The 2011 Nissan Altima features two engine choices. The 2.5 models get a 2.5-liter four-cylinder that produces 175 horsepower and 180 pound-feet of torque. A continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT) is mandatory on the sedan. The coupe gets a standard six-speed manual transmission with the CVT as an option.

In safety features, every Altima comes standard with antilock brakes, stability and traction control, front side airbags and side curtain airbags. The ‘Brake Override Technology’ has been a standard feature on every Nissan since model year 2005. When the vehicle is moving, if both the brake and accelerator pedals are being pressed at the same time, the brakes take precedence. They override accelerator input. Engine power is actually reduced by the system and the brakes are better able to do their job. This intuitive technology is designed to work only when it is necessary. It does not engage during low-speed maneuvers like when you are on a steep incline or trying to gain traction on slippery surfaces.

The 2011 Nissan Altima’s cabin is constructed with top-notch materials. Controls are straightforward, even with the optional navigation system, and items like Bluetooth streaming audio and an iPod interface keep the Altima current in the rapidly evolving world of in-car electronics.
