'05 Nissan Altima

Reminiscent of the Maxima produced by the same manufacturer but more efficient when it comes to cost and the powertrain, the 2005 Nissan Altima happens to be one of Nissan’s success stories in the automobile market. In fact, such popularity of what was primarily designed to be a family sedan is quite a rare instance, as many auto enthusiasts would agree.

The 2005 Altima provides two options regarding the powertrain. The I-4 engine provides a moderate 175 horsepower, while the V-6 engine provides more powerful figures of 250 horsepower. Manual transmission systems are the standard feature in the vehicles.

A family sedan needs its own quota of safety features, and the 2005 Nissan Altima is no exception. The vehicle has multiple sets of airbags and an optional traction control mechanism in some of the models. The interior is redesigned for better looks in the 2005 model year and leather upholstery is available to enhance the ambiance.
