2026 Nissan Altima in Baton Rouge
Confident Performance Meets Everyday Driveability
At the heart of the 2026 Altima is a choice between two powerful engines. The standard 2.5-liter 4-cylinder delivers a responsive 188 horsepower, while the available VC-Turbo™ 2.0-liter engine pushes out up to 248 horsepower for those who want more exhilaration in their drive. Designed for Louisiana roads, from Airline Highway to downtown Baton Rouge, the Altima's suspension and steering are finely tuned for a smooth, connected ride. The available Intelligent All-Wheel Drive system helps you stay confident during rainy weather or when heading out to places like Forest Community Park.
Elevated Design from Every Angle
With its sleek silhouette, bold front fascia, and reworked LED headlights, the 2026 Altima turns heads from Shenandoah to the LSU campus. The refined lines and modern exterior colors give it an upscale presence, while available 19-inch wheels offer added flair. From the SR's sporty black accents to the SL's chrome details, each trim has its own distinct personality that speaks to your style.
Comfort and Space for Every Passenger
Inside, the 2026 Altima delivers quiet comfort with premium materials and a layout designed for both driver and passengers. With best-in-class front legroom and optional power-adjustable leather-appointed seats, every trip, even to the Mall of Louisiana or Perkins Rowe, feels relaxed and refined. Dual-zone automatic climate control, available heated front seats, and thoughtful storage make it an ideal everyday sedan for Baton Rouge families and commuters alike.
Advanced Tech that Keeps You Connected
The Altima's 12.3-inch center touchscreen offers seamless access to NissanConnect®, with wireless Apple CarPlay®, Android Auto™, and available Alexa Built-In. Voice control, customizable profiles, and cloud-connected navigation ensure you stay informed without distraction. With available Wi-Fi hotspot, wireless charging, and a premium Bose® audio system, even drives to Zachary or Denham Springs feel like a first-class experience.
Built-In Safety with Every Trim
Standard Nissan Safety Shield® 360 gives you added peace of mind whether you're merging onto I-110 or backing out of a tight spot at Trader Joe's. With features like Blind Spot Warning, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection, and Lane Departure Warning, the Altima anticipates what's ahead. Higher trims offer ProPILOT Assist, which helps manage highway traffic with ease and reduces fatigue on long drives to New Orleans or Lafayette.
