Al Masaood Automobiles, the exclusive distributor for Nissan in Abu Dhabi, Al Ain, and the Western Region, announced record sales for the new Nissan Altima, with the latest model showing nearly a 130% increase in sales as compared to the same period last year in Abu Dhabi, despite being only available since late March.
The bold new look, spacious interior with luxurious touches, and the latest in connectivity technologies offered in the new Nissan Altima all have appeared to appeal to customers,” said Bachir Gemayel, Sales & Marketing Director at Al Masaood Automobiles. “Families and individuals alike have flocked to Al Masaood Automobiles showrooms across the capital for the Altima since launching in the last week of March, which implies, that the new car was definitely designed with customers at the heart.
We’ve also noticed that the average age of the Nissan Altima customers is dropping as compared to last year, which further underscores the model as a car for all generations, and one that will continue on its legacy for years to come, continued Gemayel.
The new Nissan Altima combines elevated design with advanced technology for a truly captivating experience. Advanced features such as the 7.0-inch Advanced Drive-Assist Display, NASA-inspired Zero Gravity seats, and 8-way power adjustable driver's seat enhance convenience and connectivity. Cutting-edge technology includes a 12.3-inch HD colour display, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, and a range of audio and infotainment options, including a Bose Premium Audio system. Safety features are prioritized with the inclusion of Nissan's ProPILOT system, offering advanced driver assistance capabilities. With all these defining features, the new Nissan Altima has set a new benchmark for performance, comfort, technology, and safety within its segment.
“Coincidently, the success of the new Altima in Abu Dhabi comes on the pearl anniversary of the car’s debut in 1992,” added Gemayel. “Thirty years and six generations later, the Altima is considered one of Nissan’s bestselling models, and as we witnessed now, the car’s legacy and refinement is still a crowd pleaser.”
Customers of the new Nissan Altima also have the extended benefit of Al Masaood Automobile’s award-winning customer-centric aftersales service, recognized earlier this month with the esteemed Sheikh Khalifa Excellence Award. Test drives for the new Nissan Altima are available at Al Masaood Automobiles showrooms in Abu Dhabi, Al Ain, and the Western regions. All Nissan cars sold by Al Masaood Automobiles, including the new Nissan Altima, come with an extended exclusive 7-year warranty, offered for the first time by the company

Chevrolet has unleashed the unthinkable in the Corvette ZR1. The King of the Hill returns with the most powerful V8 ever produced in America from an auto manufacturer, mind-bending specs, and iconic design to challenge the world’s best supercars in both coupe and convertible variants.
• Corvette ZR1 features a 5.5L, twin-turbocharged DOHC flat-plane crank V8 engine dubbed the LT7.
• The LT7 engine produces 1,064 horsepower at 7,000 rpm and 828 lb-ft (1123 Nm) of torque at 6,000 rpm, per SAE guidelines — the most power ever from a factory Corvette and the most powerful V8 ever produced in America from an auto manufacturer.
• Corvette ZR1 boasts a GM-estimated top speed of over 215 mph (346 Kph) on the racetrack and will dispatch the quarter mile with a GM-estimated sub-10-second time1.
• Purposeful carbon fiber aero package creates over 1,200 pounds (544 Kg) of downforce at top speed.
• ZR1 revives one of the most iconic styles in Corvette history: the split rear window.
“The team that revolutionized Corvette with a mid-engine architecture took on another challenge: take ZR1 to the next level,” said Scott Bell, vice president, Chevrolet. “Corvette ZR1 is about pushing the envelope with raw power and cutting-edge innovation. From Stingray, to Z06, E-Ray, and now ZR1, the Corvette family continues to elevate with each new iteration — and challenge the best in the world.”

The automotive world is abuzz with the announcement that Lanzante, the renowned vehicle specialist known for transforming track-focused machines into road-going marvels, is set to convert the Red Bull RB17 hypercar into a street-legal version. This ambitious project aims to bring Adrian Newey’s V-10 beast from the racetrack to the public roads, and while the challenge is daunting, Lanzante's track record suggests they are up for it. The Red Bull RB17, designed by the legendary Adrian Newey, is a testament to cutting-edge engineering and performance. The track-only version of the hypercar weighs a mere 1,984 pounds, making it lighter than a Mazda MX-5 Miata ND. Yet, despite its featherweight design, it boasts a staggering 1,200 horsepower. This immense power allows it to lap Silverstone a second quicker than a Formula 1 car, according to recent simulations.
