The success story continues right down to the year 2008, as the 2008 Nissan Altima is released with the anti-lock braking system as a standard feature rather than an option. Available both as a sedan and a coupe, the 2008 make of the Altima looks as promising in the market as its predecessors have been.
The powertrains of the 2008 Altima is virtually the same as the ones provided in the 2007 make of the vehicle. The I-4 engine delivers a moderate performance of 175 horsepower, while the more powerful V6 delivers a better performance of around 270 horsepower. The hybrid is capable of generating up to 198 horsepower.
The anti-lock braking system provided in the 2008 Nissan Altima ensures impeccable braking. The traction control mechanism improves stability and the anti-skid mechanism complements it. Multiple airbags are provided as a safety feature. With a subtle balance of safety, performance and comfort, this vehicle is fully equipped to be a fun yet stable family sedan.
