This engine is available with all-wheel drive, but output drops to 182 hp and 178 lb-ft.

Keep reading for our editorial rundown of each trim's standard and optional features.
Which Altima trim does Edmunds recommend?
We recommend checking out the SR version of the Altima. It has a sportier look that could make it easier to sell the Altima in the future. In addition, you can option the SR trim with an appealing Premium package, and Nissan reserves the Altima's available turbocharged engine for SR trim.
