Grande Prairie Nissan

The 2011 Nissan Altima Hybrid at Grande Prairie Nissan gives you the perfect combination of a gasoline engine and an electric motor.

How does Nissan's Altima hybrid system actually work?

The new 2011 Nissan Altima Hybrid at Grande Prairie Nissan always delivers power from its most efficient source:

• Low Speeds: For maximum fuel economy and minimum environmental impact, the gasoline engine shuts down at low speeds, and uses the electric motor exclusively.
• Heavy Acceleration: Smooth, instant power comes from both the gas engine and electric motor.
• Cruising: During freeway driving, power comes mostly from Altima's gas engine, since it's more efficient at higher speeds.  The electric motor assists if needed.
• Braking/Coasting: The gas engine shuts off, it's not needed.  Momentum is converted into electricity, recharging the battery.
• At a Stop: To conserve fuel, reduce emissions, and prevent idling, the gas engine shuts off and the electric motor stays ready.

With this system and its 2.5-litre 4-cylinder engine, the 2011 Nissan Altima Hybrid gives you the fuel efficiency of 5.6L/100 km when in the city and 5.9L/100km on the highway.

Stay in the know with the Leather Tech Package and get the hard-drive Nissan Navigation System.

This features a real-time display showing how the hybrid system directs the flow of energy.  You can watch the 2011 Nissan Altima produce low L/100km numbers on the vehicle information display.  The display also shows you when you're running solely on electric power.  Add to that the convenience of Bluetooth and the luxury of leather seating, and you've got a winning hybrid.
