Nissan-Petromin launches new 2017 Altima in KSA
Nissan-Petromin is the newest national dealer of Nissan in Saudi Arabia and has seen massive sales growth since opening its first showroom in March 2016.
The Nissan Altima is one of Nissan’s top-selling and most recognized models around the world and a class-leading mid-size sedan. Nissan-Petromin is proud to announce the launch of the Nissan Altima 2017 model
The new 2017 Altima brings with it a fresh new design with several new technologies and safety features included. A new face-lift with an energetic flow design is most notable.
Two key elements of the facelift are a redesigned V-Motion grille and boomerang-shaped headlights. The look is dramatically different from the 2016 Altima design, and also includes a wide, deeply sculpted lower bumper, integrated fog lights (2.5 SV, 2.5 SL, 3.5 SL models), and prominent chrome-trimmed grille.
Commenting on the announcement, Tony Barlow, Chief Operating Officer of Petromin Automotive Services, said: “The addition of the new 2017 Altima to our range of vehicles further strengthens our model line up in the Kingdom. Altima is already a class-leading family sedan and a very popular choice for customers in the region. The latest model offers substantial improvements and significant design touches that will only serve to increase model appeal.
The new-look Altima will also benefit from Nissan Petromin’s added value aftersales service and unbeatable customer experience. We look forward to welcoming interested customers to our showrooms and to experience a test drive.”
Along with the revised appearance, the X-Tronic D-Step CVT of the new Nissan Altima is among the quietest in its segment. Altima has also increased safety technology with the addition of the first-in-class Predictive Forward Collision Warning (PFCW), the Blind Spot Warning (BSW), Forward Emergency Braking (FEB), and Rear Cross-Traffic Alert (RCTA). The new steering has been reshaped and tuned to provide real-time road input and precision (available only on SL grades).
Nissan is committed to adding value and has incorporated customer feedback. Base on this it has added comfort features, such as reshaped Zero Gravity front seats, woven cloth seating, and open weave pattern door panel which provide a premium look and feel throughout the Altima interior. Twin cup holders on the center console now accommodate mug handles in direct response to customer input.
The 2017 Altima’s refined interior design follows the new “Gliding Wing” design language. Central to the new look is the revised C-stack with available 5.0-inch and 7.0-inch displays for navigation with mobile apps. Finishing off with the acoustic windshield ensures a new level of cabin isolation and quietness.
The Nissan Altima 2017, which is offered in five grade levels including 2.5 S, SV, SL, and 3.5 SV and SL grades, will have a price ranging between SR 75,000 and SR 102,000 in Saudi Arabia.
Nissan-Petromin is expanding its sales network rapidly, and by mid of 2017, there will be 14 showrooms in Riyadh, Jeddah, Al-Madinah, and the Eastern Province region. Nissan- Petromin operates from 225 approved Petromin Express outlets across the kingdom where periodic maintenance to all Nissan vehicles’ users across Saudi Arabia can be completed. Through this wide network, Petromin Express offers unprecedented service levels and convenience to all Nissan customers – with no need for prior reservations.
