A2 Nissan Altima or the first time ever, a team of FNorth Americans has played major roles in engineering, styling and tooling up to build an allâ€" new, mainstream family sedan for a Japaneseâ€"based autoâ€"maker. It‘s a modestly priced 5â€"seater with the quality, roadâ€"feel, comfort, perforâ€" mance, ride, handling and accident avoidance capability of cars costing a great deal more. Styled at Nissan _ Design International, in San Diego, Altima was engineered at Nissan Research and Development, in Farmington Hills, Mich. and development tested in Arizona and Ontario. Altimas are built at North America‘s biggest single auto plant â€" Nissan‘s massive mileâ€"long stamping, component and assembly complex in Smyma, Tenn. A fundamental advantage that sets Altima apart from all of its rivals is the Nissan Satisfaction Commitment â€" the best ownerâ€" care and warranty package available in Canada. It comes complete with roadside assistance for all emerâ€" gencies, including flat tires, lockouts, or an empty fuel tank. Shopping For A New Sedan? This Should Help Fuel Your Decision.

Altima gains its structural strength from the Smyma‘s plant‘s use of North America‘s first Intelligent Body Assembly System or IBAS.

Appealing to peoâ€" ple with active lifestyles who want verâ€" satility without sacrificing sedan style, performance or comfort, the wagons are often called "sedans with a backpack." Modifications to the sedan‘s already strong spaceframe were required to accommodate the design of the larger rear cargo area. The simplicity of this change without compromising the vehiâ€" cle‘s structural integrity is a direct result of Saturn‘s attention to detail in the early stages of the sedan‘s development. With numerous strategically placed steel reinforcements and over 3,000 structural weld‘s, these Saturn‘s specaframe wagons are designed to proâ€" tect vehicle occupants as well as any bodyside parts.
