The 2007 Nissan Altima Hybrid is a step a gigantic forward for the car company. It was lagging behind the “green” movement in the auto industry, but now has made its entry with a big splash.
Nissan refuses to sacrifice muscle just so it can be more fuel-efficient.  It remains powerful, but look at how many miles-per-gallon you get: city 42MPG and 36MPG highway.  That means you can go between 720 and 840 miles before another fill up; that is very nice. It is only available in selected states, but once it goes nationwide it will be a best-seller.

The 2007 Nissan Altima Hybrid is completely new and its design has followed the gas-engine Altima redesign.

Why We Like It
This hybrid is a fan-favorite, and it is easy to see why.  It provides everything the popular gas-engine Altima provides, but with “green” benefits. It is a hybrid that has sport and appeal, unlike many that are not engineered for beauty.
