20.22 Altima Exterior

The Nissan Altima's sleek and angular exterior styling hints at a sportier and more engaging drive than it actually delivers. LED projector headlights with LED daytime running lights are standard on all but the base model, which features halogen projector headlights. The top-spec SL and Platinum models come fitted with LED fog lights. A dark chrome V-Motion grille delineates the SR from the rest of the line. The S is fitted with 16-inch steel wheels with covers, the SV and SL with 17-inch stylized alloy wheels, and the SR and Platinum with even fancier 19-inch alloy wheels. The SR with the VC-Turbo and the Platinum both come outfitted with a single-pane glass moonroof. Finally, adding the Midnight Edition package adds a black painted sport grille, a gloss black painted spoiler and exterior mirrors, model-specific badging, and gloss black 19-inch wheels.

Exterior Colors

A total of nine colors constitute the Nissan Altima's color palette, though the base-level S is limited to only five: Glacier White, Super Black, Gun Metallic, Brilliant Silver Metallic, and Deep Blue Pearl. For an additional $395, the SV and SL models can be painted in Pearl White Tricoat, Storm Blue Metallic, and Scarlet Ember Tintcoat, in lieu of Glacier White and Deep Blue Pearl. As the performance model, the SR is given the most striking color option, Sunset Drift Chromaflair, which is offered at $395. The Scarlet Ember Tintcoat or the Brilliant Solver Metallic are superb options for any of the regular models, while the Sunset Drift Chromaflair is the go-to for the SR. Midnight Edition models are only available in Super Black, Gun Metallic, and Pearl White.
