Newark New Nissan dealer has top family sedan, the Altima
For those trying hard to avoid the mini van mold and reluctant to give up the thrill of a sports coupe, Nissan Altima has the perfect blend for family and fun. The Nissan Altima earned the distinction of top family sedan from Consumer Reports this year and your Newark New Nissan dealer is ready to put you behind the wheel of this versatile car.
The Top Picks chosen by Consumer Reports are considered the best models in their categories based on safety, performance and reliability. More than 280 vehicles are tested by CR and the top picks must meet standards in the three areas.
Bayonne new Nissan dealers are proud to offer the Altima, which as been among Consumer Reports’ top-rated family sedans for several years. Nissan “freshened” the 2010 model, which now has improved gas mileage and offers standard ESC in all of the trim lines. This is great news for budget-conscious families who need a dependable ride and still enjoy a bit of thrill while driving.
According to Consumer Reports, Altima “offers an appealing balance of comfort and performance, while getting some of the best fuel economy in its class.” The four-cylinder model averages 26 mpg and the V6 gets 24 mpg. Such efficient numbers are reassuring with the price of fuel predicted to rise in the coming months and the price of air travel not so family-friendly.
Other selling points for the Altima are a comfortable, quiet ride, roomy cabin, secure handling and an overall enjoyable experience, according to the testers at Consumer Reports. The four-door, five-passenger family sedan is available in three trims. The 2.5 boasts a standard 2.5-liter, 175-horsepower engine. The 3.5 comes standard with a 3.5-liter, V5, 270-horsepower engine. Standard for both models is a variable speed automatic transmission with overdrive.

So, even though it is a “family sedan”, the enjoyable drive may feel more like a sports car and mom and dad won’t have to feel deprived at passing on the two-door convertible.
Nissan vehicles have a history of being family-friendly and full of safety features. The Altima, designed with a bit of extra room for the family, has all the safety features parents need to feel confident in packing up the family for rounds about town or a long road trip.
The price is also family-friendly, ranging from $23,970 to $30,335, there is a model to fit almost any family budget. This price, coupled with the great gas mileage will even leave room in the budget for a date night or a weekend getaway. And you can use that “spirited acceleration” to get there!
