New 2020 Nissan Altima at Twin City Nissan

Style and Design

The new generation Altima comes to us with a fairly substantial styling redesign. The new models come with sharpened lines and a sportier look overall. Sharp angles help the new horizontal front headlamps look more aggressive, while the new grille heavily features the Nissan V-Motion Grille design. Available options like integrated fog lamps and piano-black accent pieces enhance the Altima's appearance even further.

The Altima's new cabin design opts for elegance through simplicity. It's a distinctly un-cluttered design with simple lines, ergonomic controls, and a range of available materials. Higher trims come with supple leather upholstery, wood trim pieces, and more. Plus, the new Altima beats major competitors in front legroom.

Performance and Power

Some exciting performance developments have come along with the new 2020 Altima. Namely, it offers an innovative new powertrain. The 2.0-liter Variable-Compression Turbo engine uses unique engineering to maximize both its power output and efficiency. It can raise or lower its pistons according to your driving needs. Adding turbocharging into the mix ensures that you'll have plenty of power on tap. In total, the engine offers 236 horsepower and 267 pound-feet of torque.

The Altima does keep its standard 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine. Its 188 horsepower and 180 pound-feet of torque may not be quite as thrilling as the VC-Turbo engine, but it is available with a new feature that's sure to excite some drivers near Pigeon Forge: Intelligent All-Wheel Drive.

Intelligent All-Wheel Drive sends power to the front wheels in normal, everyday driving scenarios. This makes for a pleasant ride quality and optimized fuel economy. When the need arises, however, the system can split power between the front and rear wheels. This can drastically improve traction for corners or slick conditions.
