2024 Nissan Altima:Perfect for Vancouver Island's All-Weather Driving
Vancouver Island drivers, meet the sedan built for all-weather confidence. The 2024 Nissan Altima’s Intelligent AWD and advanced features make it your perfect partner for rain-soaked streets, icy roads, and daily commutes.

Vancouver Island drivers know that Mother Nature doesn’t always cooperate. From heavy coastal rains and strong winds to icy roads in the mountains, the weather can make daily commutes and long trips unpredictable. The 2024 Nissan Altima, equipped with advanced Intelligent AWD, is the perfect midsize sedan for navigating these challenges. Designed for safety, performance, and efficiency, the Altima is built to keep Nanaimo and Vancouver Island drivers confident in any conditions.



Intelligent AWD: Your Ally in Vancouver Island’s Changing Weather

The heart of the Altima’s all-weather capability lies in its Intelligent AWD system. Introduced in 2019, this technology dynamically adjusts power between the front and rear wheels based on road conditions. Whether you’re tackling rain-soaked streets in Nanaimo, gusty winds on the Malahat, or icy backroads near Mount Washington, Intelligent AWD provides unparalleled traction and stability.

Unlike traditional AWD systems, Intelligent AWD seamlessly switches between front-wheel drive (for optimal fuel efficiency) and all-wheel drive (for maximum stability). This ensures you’re always prepared, whether you’re navigating stormy highways or enjoying a sunny day drive.


Additional Stability Features for Vancouver Island Drivers

Rain, wind, or snow—Vancouver Island throws it all at you. Thankfully, the 2024 Altima offers advanced technologies to keep you in control, including:

  • Active Ride Control: Reduces body pitch and roll over uneven surfaces, ideal for potholes or storm-damaged roads.
  • Intelligent Trace Control (I-TC): Automatically applies brake pressure during sharp turns or slippery conditions to prevent oversteer or understeer.
  • Dual-Pinion Electric Power Steering: Offers precise handling even during sudden gusts or slick roads, giving you more control when it matters most.

Together, these features make the Altima a standout choice for Vancouver Island’s variable terrain and unpredictable weather.


Fuel Efficiency Without Compromise

All-wheel drive vehicles often sacrifice fuel efficiency for traction, but the Altima defies expectations. With an estimated 9.1 L/100 km in the city and 6.5 L/100 km on the highway, it’s perfect for both Nanaimo’s urban commutes and extended trips up the Island Highway. Its aerodynamic design ensures you won’t feel the pinch at the pump, even with its impressive AWD capabilities.


Designed for Vancouver Island Life

The 2024 Altima isn’t just about performance—it’s packed with features that make it a joy to own, including:

  • ProPILOT Assist: Maintains your lane and a safe following distance during highway drives, perfect for trips to Tofino or Victoria.
  • Standard Splash Guards: Keep your Altima protected from mud and debris during rainy seasons or off-road adventures.
  • Heated Seats and Steering Wheel: Essential for cold, damp mornings, ensuring you’re always comfortable.
