Nissan ALTIMA, also known as the North American version of Nissan Teana, is a family sedan produced by the Japanese automaker Nissan. Model Introduction: The Chinese name for Nissan ALTIMA is "Teana". The seventh-generation Teana (2019 model) adopted the new rear badge ALTIMA, replacing the previous TEANA badge. The all-new Teana (ALTIMA) is based on the Vmotion 2.0 concept car, with comprehensively increased body dimensions: length/width/height of 4901/1850/1447mm and a wheelbase of 2825mm. All these changes were made to meet market demands and align with its sporty vehicle positioning. Powertrain Introduction: In terms of power, the Dongfeng Nissan 2019 Teana is equipped with two engines: a 2.0L naturally aspirated and a 2.0T turbocharged, delivering maximum power outputs of 159 horsepower (117 kW) and 252 horsepower (185 kW) respectively. The 2.0T engine produces a peak torque of 380 Nm. Both engines are paired with a CVT continuously variable transmission that can simulate 8 speeds. Additionally, all 2019 Teana models comply with China's National VI emission standards.
I think you might have misspelled the name, it should be the Nissan Altima, right? The name comes from a Latin word meaning 'to surpass,' which is pretty cool, isn't it? It's a midsize sedan, and I've been following it since the '90s when it was introduced to replace the older Stanza, marking Nissan's progress in sedans. To this day, the Altima has gone through several generations, and new models are still being produced. It's particularly popular in the U.S. market because it combines comfortable driving with reliable performance, making long trips less tiring. I remember the first generation had a pretty modern design, with spacious interiors suitable for families. Later upgrades added safety systems like ProPilot Assist, making driving more worry-free. If you're considering buying a used car, older Altimas are usually durable and simple and economical to maintain. All in all, it's not some mysterious model but one of Nissan's flagship vehicles.
