2024 Nissan Altima Performance

2024 Nissan Altima

Need a new everyday vehicle that’ll reliably get you from home to Dover and back without breaking the bank? Then the 2024 Nissan Altima may be right for you! In this overview of the Nissan Altima specs, we’ll show you how efficiently the 2024 Altima performs by taking a look at the Nissan Altima engine specs as well as the Nissan Altima fuel economy you can expect. Spoiler alert: the Nissan Altima mpg-rating is quite good, and will go a long way in saving you money at the pump!

2024 Nissan Altima Engine Specs

Except for one, all 2024 Nissan Altima trims run on the same efficient 2.5L inline-four engine. The odd trim out, in this case, is the SR VC-Turbo®, which runs on a slightly smaller, 2.0L inline-four engine. And while the latter does push 248 hp when you use premium fuel (236 hp with regular), you should expect a corresponding (though slight) decrease in the Nissan Altima fuel economy as a result of this relatively increased performance.

2.5L Four-cylinder Inline Engine

Standard engine for ALL trims for both AWD and FWD drivetrains, EXCEPT for the SR VC-Turbo®

  • 188 hp @ 6,000 rpm (FWD)
  • 182 hp @ 6,000 rpm (AWD)
  • 180 lb-ft of torque @ 3,600 rpm (FWD)
  • 178 lb-ft of torque @ 3,600 rpm (AWD)

2.0L Four-cylinder Inline Engine

Standard engine for the SR VC-Turbo® trim (FWD only)

  • 248 hp @ 5,600 rpm (w/ premium 93 fuel)
  • 236 hp @ 5,600 rpm (w/ regular fuel)
  • 273 lb-ft of torque @ 4,000 rpm (w/ premium 93 fuel)
  • 267 lb-ft of torque @ 4,000 rpm (w/ regular fuel)

2024 Nissan Altima Fuel Economy

Here are the Nissan Altima mpg figures by engine and drivetrain. As you’ll note, front-wheel drive variants are the most efficient and should be capable of traveling up to 27 city miles or 39 highway miles with a single gallon of fuel. On the other hand, you can opt for increased horsepower and torque with the Nissan Altima SR-VC Turbo®, though at the cost of increased fuel consumption.

However, this only means that instead of getting 39 miles per gallon on the highway, you’ll get 34 miles, which, in the grand scheme of things, is still quite excellent! At the very least, it’ll easily get you to and from Exeter with minimal refueling stops and make long car trips less stressful and less expensive!
