Nissan Altima To Get “Significant” Facelift For 2016

The Nissan Altima has had a slow start in Australia since launching in late 2013, with last year's sales only amounting to a 3.6 percent share of the total midsize car market - roughly the same as what the equally-unloved Skoda Octavia enjoys.

By contrast, the Camry dominated the segment with a 2014 market share of 44.5 percent. The Mazda6 came second with 11.9 percent.

But an upcoming mid-cycle facelift may give the struggling Altima a visual and technological leg-up next year, with a Nissan executive describing the changes as "significant".
