The 2023 model of the Altima is available in five trim levels: the base-level S, the SV, the SR, the SL, and the SR VC-Turbo. The turbocharged engine is only available in the top-level SR VC-Turbo trim, which also comes standard with a number of performance upgrades like a rear spoiler and 19-inch aluminum wheels.

Interior and Exterior Updates

Overall, the exterior has been updated with a new front grille and standard LED headlights across all trim levels. The SL and SR-level trims come standard with a massive 12.3-inch touchscreen and infotainment center with wireless Apple CarPlay integration in the center console, which is available as an option on the SV-level trim. Optional upgrades include a wireless charging pad and a subscription-based WiFi hotspot.

Safety Features

Notably, Nissan has also expanded the features that come standard in its Safety Shield 360 suite of safety features. All trim levels of the 2023 Altima now come standard with blind spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert to avoid collisions when in reverse, rear and forward automatic emergency braking and pedestrian monitoring, automatic high beams, and an automated driver alertness warning feature to tell you when it's time to take a break on long trips.
