Summer is here and you may be ready to hit the road in a new vehicle. It’s good to know that Woodfield Nissan has a great selection of Nissan cars and Nissan SUVs, all waiting for you to schedule a test drive. But what are some of the best Nissan models for your summertime drives in the Chicago area? 

Fun and Efficiency with Sentra 

If you’re planning to get out of town for a break and love the feel of the open road, the Nissan Sentra is for you. It’s designed to be fast and fun, but efficient at the same time with a responsive engine and great handling for those twisty backroads. Sentra has a multi-link rear suspension and an advanced steering system to make light work of all those corners. 

You can put your Sentra into “sport” mode for even more in the way of thrills, but you won’t be too worried when you get to the pump, as you’ll typically get up to 40 MPG on the highway. 

Performance and Style with Altima 

Nissan continues the sporty theme with the VC turbo-engined Nissan Altima. Take advantage of up to 248 hp and plenty of torque if you’re setting out for a long interstate drive through Chicagoland. And you won’t need to worry about all those storms that keep rolling in from the lake, as Altima is available with intelligent all-wheel drive. This continuously monitors the road conditions and responds instantly to give extra traction if needed. 

Why not upgrade the look and feel of your Altima with an available carbon fiber design trim? You can even specify leather-appointed seats throughout, so you and your family can journey in style. 

Crossover Flexibility with Kicks 

If you live in suburban Elmhurst, Evanston, or even in downtown Chicago, congestion can be a way of life. But you can equip yourself for those heavy traffic days with the nimble Kicks. This compact SUV has responsive steering and great handling, so you can maneuver through the city streets and boss those tight corners. The Kicks has some dynamic controls as well, such as active ride, intelligent trace, and intelligent engine braking for even more precision. 

Even though the Kicks is a compact SUV, you can still fit up to five people in comfort and there are plenty of storage options. There’s more than 25 ft.³ of cargo volume behind the rear seats to keep all your belongings safe. 

Updates and Plenty of Space with Rogue 

There is a great range of available Nissan SUVs at Woodfield Nissan, including the 2024 Rogue. This is a mid-size crossover with a recently updated look, loads of tech on board, and plenty of room for you and your friends. The Rogue has three standard drive modes (sport, auto, and eco), as well as “snow” mode, so you’re ready and waiting for those Illinois winters. 

The 2024 Rogue now has Google built-in, enhanced voice recognition, and a large 12.3-inch touchscreen display. You also choose a heads-up display for the latest in driving innovation.  

Adventure and Room for the Family with Pathfinder 

Whether you have a growing family, a thirst for adventure, or both, you’re going to love the 2024 Pathfinder, one of our most popular Nissan models at Woodfield Nissan. This eight-seater has advanced available 4×4 capability with no fewer than seven drive and terrain modes for different conditions. It’ll tow up to 6000 lbs. as well, so you can hook up your caravan or boat trailer for that weekend trip. 

With safety always front of mind, you will be delighted to know that the 2024 Pathfinder is an IIHS top safety pick and received the highest five-star overall vehicle safety rating from the NHTSA.
