Product Overview

Nissan Altima 4 (code L32) is an affordable mid-size sedan in production from 2007 to 2012. It was available with a range of inline-4 and V6 engines that displaced 2.5 to 3.5 liters.
Unfortunately, Nissan appeared to have made little effort in improving the design or engineering of the L31 Altima. This generation could be said to be somewhat less physically attractive.
While the engines were still naturally-aspirated and rather reliable, the automatic transmission has been replaced fully by the CVT. Over a decade later, we have witnessed the fall of Nissan's reliability ratings from grace as a result.
Unexpectedly, the Gen4 Altima had a basic suspension setup.
