While the experts at Benson Nissan in Spartanburg can provide a countless number of reasons the Altima should be your next vehicle, here are our top five. If you have questions, don't hesitate to reach out to us and give us a call at 888-807-4933.

1. The Altima Boasts Exceptional Fuel Efficiency for Driving Around Greenville

One of the many advantages of a sedan over an SUV or truck is fuel efficiency. With the 2019 Nissan Altima, not only do you get that advantage, but the 2019 Nissan Altima also outshines the competition. Nissan's advanced new turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine produces 25/34 MPG (City/Hwy) for a combined EPA rating of 29 miles per gallon. This beats the Toyota Camry V6, and the Mazda 6 2.5T by 3 miles per gallon.


If you're looking for even more efficiency for your daily commute in Greenville, the Nissan Altima's all new naturally aspirated 2.5-L DIG Engine is designed to go the distance. It boasts the ability to achieve up to 28/39 MPG (City/Highway) and up to 188 HP with 180 lb.-ft. of torque. Simply put, the Nissan Altima is the most fuel-efficient sedan with an all-wheel-drive drivetrain in the midsize class, which segues into the second reason you should purchase an Altima. 

2. The Altima Offers Intelligent All-Wheel Drive

When it comes to the midsize sedan segment, the Nissan Altima simply leads the pack with features not available in competing vehicles. The 2019 Nissan Altima offers a smart, All-Wheel Drive system that continuously monitors your driving conditions and instinctively adjusts power to the wheels to ensure you have the best traction. In addition, this system simultaneously works to help you optimize fuel efficiency. You won't find this all-wheel drive powertrain or anything similar on the Accord, Camry, Optima, or Sonata.

3. Does Your Mid-Size Sedan Engine Turbo?

Staying with the theme of features not available on other vehicles in the segment, the Altima boasts an available VC-Turbo engine that allows you to enjoy the best of both worlds - outstanding fuel economy coupled with turbocharged power (236 HP and up to 267 lb.-ft. of torque) and performance.


This cutting-edge engine automatically adjusts compression ratio to deliver more fuel efficiency or power depending on your needs and driving situation. This state-of-the-art turbocharged engine boasts performance improvements that exceed the Honda Accord, Suburu Legacy, and the Toyota Camry.

4. It's What's on the Inside That Counts!

Comfort and convenience are important during your daily commute to Greer, Greenville, or Spartanburg. Once you step inside of the new 2019 Nissan Altima, you'll be enveloped by premium materials and standard features that you'd have to pay more for in competing vehicles. For example, Apple CarPlay and Andriod Auto is standard, while this feature will add additional costs on the Ford Fusion and Honda Accord.


Also, the Altima's standard class-exclusive USB Type-C outlets are not available on the Accord, Camry, Optima, Sonata, or any other vehicle in the segment. Best of all, the Altima offers more front legroom (43.8 inches) than the Toyota Camry (42.1 inches) and Honda Accord (42.3 inches).

5. The Altima Offers Forward-Thinking Advanced Safety Features

The Nissan Altima includes an entire suite of technology designed to empower you to drive with more certainty. The Class-Exclusive Intelligent Forward Collision Warning system automatically monitors the velocity and distance of the two vehicles in front of you to make you aware of risks you may not see.


While Intelligent Forward Collision Warning is standard on the Altima, it's not available on the Accord, Camry, Optima, or Sonata. In addition, the Altima's Rear Automatic Braking that keeps you in the know of potential collisions while you're in reverse isn't offered on the competition.
