Nissan Altima Engines and Transmissions
Nissan Altima engine choices include the 2.5 CVT with front-wheel or all-wheel drive, while the turbocharged 2.0 T CVT example drives the front wheels. All-wheel drive can help you pull away on slippery surfaces. These versions use a continuously variable transmission, which adjusts its ratio without conventional gear changes and can hold higher engine revs during sustained acceleration.
