Specs at a Glance
The 2026 Nissan Altima remains a top recommendation for family car buyers. It is praised for its refined performance, modern styling, and great standard features. When shopping for a new Altima, many people decide between the SV and SR trims. Here is an overview of how these two models compare.
Performance
Both the Altima SV and SR feature a 2.5-liter, DOHC four-cylinder engine that produces 188 horsepower and 180 lb-ft of torque. Power is delivered to the front wheels via a CVT, though all-wheel drive is available on both models for those who want extra traction.
The SR trim is engineered for a more spirited drive. It features a sport-tuned suspension for better handling and cornering, as well as paddle shifters that give the driver more control over the transmission.
Appearance
The Altima SV has a very stylish design with a sleek silhouette. It features standard LED headlights and 17-inch alloy wheels that enhance its overall look. Its modern styling is perfect for any occasion.
To give the SR a sportier and more aggressive stance, Nissan equips it with 19-inch alloy wheels. It also features a blacked-out grille and dual chrome exhaust finishers, helping it stand out as the more athletic model.
Features
The Altima SV is well-equipped with features like Zero Gravity seats for comfort, an 8.0-inch touchscreen, and Safety Shield 360 safety technology. It also includes a 7.0-inch Advanced Drive-Assist Display, remote engine start, and a six-speaker sound system.
The SR trim adds sport cloth seating and an upgraded 12.3-inch NissanConnect infotainment system with wireless smartphone connectivity. Wireless phone charging is also included on the SR model.
