最近谍照记者首次拍到了下一代日产Altima测试照片，虽然当时该车进行了重度伪装，但仍能看出新车基本轮廓。新一代Altima从西玛车型获得了很多设计灵感。该车的进气格栅一直延伸到前保险杠，并在下方有个“V”字造型设计，，看起来有点像日产Vmotion2.0概念车。与概念版车型一样，这辆测试车也采用了棱角分明前大灯，只不过造型并非那么前卫罢了。虽然概念车的车身侧面采用了硬朗的折线，但这款车的车身侧面似乎更平坦。由于车身伪装会隐藏一下细节，因此无法推断真实情况。车尾看起来很平淡，Vmotion2.0极具雕刻感的车尾与流线形车顶相连。而这辆车看起来是典型的轿车，并未体现出过多的时尚造型。新车将有一些技术上的升级，包括提供日产的ProPilot半自动驾驶系统，至少在高端版本上这项配置将成为选装件。另外，新车也有可能提供新的后座提醒技术(Rear Door Alert )。新车动力总成仍是秘密。日产似乎并不急于提供小排量涡轮增压引擎，因此该车可能仍将继续搭载自然进气引擎。

All-New 2019 Nissan Altima Spied Testing For First Time

A new batch of spy photos gives us the first look at the next-generation Nissan Altima. The sedan is under heavy camouflage, but the automaker can’t hide the model’s general look.

The new Altima follows the latest Maxima’s move toward a more angular look. The large, V-shaped grille takes inspiration from the piece on the Vmotion 2.0 Concept. Like the show car, this test mule has headlights that are angled into the center, but they aren’t nearly as avant-garde.

Where the Vmotion 2.0 Concept features hard creases on the vehicle’s side, this Altima appears rather flat. The vehicle is just a test mule, though. It’s possible that the camouflage could be concealing styling details, so we can’t make any conclusions yet. The rear end looks fairly muted, too. The Vmotion 2.0 has heavily sculpted tail with a flowing roof. These spy shots show a vehicle that looks like a typical sedan. There’s not a lot of style evident here at this point.

Under the skin, there should be some tech upgrades. For example, some aspects of Nissan’s ProPilot semi-autonomous driving system would probably be available, at least as an option on higher trim levels. The new Rear Door Alert also seems like something the company would add.

Powertrain changes remain a complete mystery. Nissan seems slower to embrace down-sized, forced-induction engines for its models, so the firm might continue to stick by natural aspiration.
