Engage Facebook Striptease: 2013 Nissan Altima Video Released [Updated with New Teaser]

Update: Nissan has released a second teaser video of the 2013 Altima. The new clip shows a significant portion of the car's front end, including the grille and one headlight. Check out the clip below.

The sheet has been pulled from the 2013 Nissan Altima—well, in a brief teaser video first posted on Facebook, anyway. We've previously published spy shots of the car, but this is the first look we've had of a fully finished car sans camo. Of course, the teaser clip doesn't reveal much, showing only an overhead silhouette.

The 2013 Altima adopts an all-new platform that will later proliferate to other Nissan sedans and crossovers, and the family sedan again will offer four-cylinder, V-6, and hybrid power. The Altima hybrid's return comes after a one-year hiatus, but this time around Nissan is using its own technology and not licensing Toyota bits as it did for its last-gen car. (Details on the hybrid setup—which will incorporate a supercharged four—can be found here.) Transmissions will include a CVT and a manual; the stick will be available with either conventional engine. Expect base prices for all trims to fall between $20,000 and $30,000.

For more teaser videos, Nissan invites you to visit its Facebook page every Thursday from now until the car is fully revealed at the New York auto show in early April. Or you can come right back here, as we'll update this post with the new clips as soon as they're released. How's that for a tease?
