Which 2012 Nissan Altima style is right for you relies upon a lot on your objectives. The four-cylinder engine under the cover of 2.5 designs seems vibrant enough that it should be more than sufficient for a majority of customers. The CVT satisfied several of our authors with its sleek and sensitive efficiency, while others sensed it made the engine seem more noisy under difficult speeding. The revocation here is one-sided toward journey comfort, though managing doesn't experience all that much for it. On the freeway, the Altima's quality of journey never seems severe or fast paced, and wind and road disturbance are moderate.
