For the 2007 2.5S with automatic transmission, the EPA fuel estimate is 26/34. However, the altima coupe with xtronic cvt fuel estimate is 23/31. The engine is the same and the coupe is smaller and lighter. And at the dealerships, they have the fuel estimate at 21/26. Whats going on?

The estimate formulas have recently changed to a new standard that gives a lower reading. Search for more information on it.
it is possible you seen the numbers for the model with the bigger engine. the altima coupe has a 6 cylinder like the 350z but it is slightly tuned down about 25 or 30hp.
