2011 Nissan Altima Hybrid Professional Cars.com ReviewSource: Cars.com...locks and keyless entry Standard cruise control Optional heated front seats Optional upgraded audio system Optional navigation system Under the Hood The four-cylinder gasoline engine shuts off when the vehicle comes to a stop to save gas. The electric motor provides some acceleration at low speeds; the gasoline engine kicks in when accelerating hard or for highway travel. The air-conditioning compressor is electric (rather than belt-driven) to save gas. This also means the air conditioner can blow in cold air even with the engine turned off. The Altima Hybrid achieves an estimated 35/33 mpg... |

2011 nissan altima Professional Edmunds ReviewSource: Edmunds...In Edmunds performance testing, a 3.5 sedan went from zero to 60 mph in 7 seconds. The coupe with the CVT did the same sprint in 6.7 seconds; with the manual, it dropped to 6.5. EPA fuel economy is 20/27/23 mpg for the CVT and 18/27/21 mpg for the manual. Safety: Every Altima comes standard with antilock brakes, stability and traction control, front side airbags and side curtain airbags.

The Nissan Altima has... |

Why should I also consider these?
There's really something for everyone in the thickly populated field of mid-size sedans, but you have to examine your priorities.
The Ford Fusion is one of the sportier-driving mid-size sedans and has great handling; it's also well-built and offers impressive fuel economy in four-cylinder form.
What's more, its Hybrid version is offered in all 50 states and boasts 41 mpg on the highway.
Most shoppers in this class place some prominence on interior space, and for that the best vehicles are the Accord, Sonata, Opima, and Camry.
The freshly redesigned Hyundai Sonata and Kia Optima are standouts in this class, with roomy interiors, impressive refinement, and excellent fuel economy.
But the Camry's interior is a bit bland and feels cheap in execution.
For safety, the Accord stands on top (it's an IIHS Top Safety Pick).
However, against any of these models, the Altima comes across as well rounded and sporty.
Versus the Nissan Altima Coupe, the only formidable rival is the Honda Accord Coupe; comparing the two, the Accord Coupe feels less sporty—it's more of a luxurious freeway cruiser, while the Altima Coupe is a little more cramped and less refined, but friskier-feeling.
