@malcolmman89 Yeah that urban legend is getting kind of worn out. Not very original. Pretty much any car driven by a young moron who doesnt give a shyte about anyone else fits. Had more than a few older Mercedes C class do the same thing to me, including the other day. The MB star gives them more street cred.
So true. Filling up the parking lots of bottom tier apartment complexes for 84 months at a time. A legitimate contender to the worst driver thrones historically held by PT Cruisers and Prius'.
In my dragy testing, I clocked the Altima 2.0T at 6 seconds flat 0-60. This is definitely my favorite midsize sedan in this class. Love the feel, handling, powertrain, and the seats. Believe it or not, they are more comfortable than many luxury cars. Also, they get up to 153mph before hitting the limiter. They have really strong performance.
Another Altima to adorn the roads, as it flies by doing 90mph in a 35 mph zone. Complete with a spare tire that’s been on for over a year, missing hubcaps, a “buy here pay here” license plate frame, no insurance, and a cracked bumper.
I've had the Platinum AWD since 2019. Love the car all around - it did great in the Colorado snow. The 19" wheels were gorgeous but I sold them after two weeks as they are horrible kidney-busters and got 17's. The ride is still bad but tolerable. Had the car shipped with me to Germany - it does great on the Autobahn even though the cruise control wont operate past 90mph and the gas gets shut off at 120. Love the new larger infotainment screen but sad to see the fog lights deleted. Would love to see the turbo offered in AWD.
If Nissan was smart that’s what they would have done to boost sales . Because The Altima would have be the only non luxury mid size competitor to offer AWD with the upgraded engine/turbo option to compete from the Camry and Accord.
THey have a new color on this years Altima...something like Cloud Grey? I dont remember the name, but I think it's a gorgeous color. I find them to be far more attractive than the new Accord, or Camry myself. Nissan's CVT has certainly cost them...I wish they'd offer it in a manual. Do something that even Honda won't do any longer.
I wish nissan would bring back the SE-R altima. They were a 3.5 v6 with a manual and 260hp. It was a 14 second car not bad at all for a family 4 door car and it didn't break the bank
I actually saw one for sale not long ago. Had under 60,000 miles and looked fantastic! Manual transmission and from the looks someone had really taken care of it. I wanna say it was near $10,000 or so.
I gotta say that the front led headlights are off the charts. Even on low beams, you can see out past what my halogens were doing on the high setting. Put the altima lights on high and you don't have to worry about not seeing the road, even out in the country away from any other lights. 😊
Pre 2003, they were pretty bulletproof. I still see the 1st and 2nd generation Altimas on the road. After that they became lots of style but mechanical nightmares with blown head gaskets, transmission issues and overall reliability problems.
Right? I bought the 2024 last year and so far so good. I’ve been driving it all over Texas and the ride is smooth, comfortable and good fuel economy. It’s fun to drive on the highway too.
Every rental I've gotten in the last few years has somehow been an Altima, and I can promise you I'm not putting in a special request for them. And every one has had some minor issue (collision warning system malfunction, backup camera not working, etc.)
@Moistnmeaty90 I have never seen an Altima rental. I usually use Hertz. Lots of Toyotas. The last Camry I rented left a lot to be desired. Makes me wonder if all the Toyota fans have actually driven the competition.
Single moms can't wait to get a hold of this car to once again put a bajillion dents in the bodywork, scratches everywhere, add a baby on board sticker and pile up the car with tons of smelly garbage everywhere.
Unfortunately this falls into Nissan's 20-30K CVT only zone. You can still get a versa w/ a manual under 20K or have to spend up 30K plus to get back to a real automatic in the Frontiers. Everything else in-between cvt only and not a chance.
Funny I have a 2010 Versa with a CVT 298,000 miles, a 2018 pathfinder with 176,000 miles and a 2020 Altima with 98,000 miles and none of my CVT’s have failed all 3 cars have had 0 issues other than maintenance
So when are the performance CVT builds coming? You know, the upgrades to handle more power. Sorry but CVT is a fail. Normies can drive them all they want. I want a car I can upgrade. I see nice examples of super low mileage Q V-6's here and there. Might have to scoop one up.
@@allentoyokawa9068 yes. Yes there is. A lot of people care about that. Especially when they'll end up footing the bill in 60% of the situations I've seen so far. That's a $5,000-7,000 bill to change what essentially amounts to a steel belt. It's dogshit. The cars can't get out of their own way with the CVT. I've driven the Sentra, the maxima, and the versa, as well as the Camry and Malibu, all with a CVT. They all sucked ass equally. Unless you were flooring it, the car refuses to move. And that's hard on parts. These are KNOWN to fail at 100,000 miles. And it gets worse every model year. People have been avoiding CVT cars like the plague. And I'll continue to advocate against them. They're junk.
Looks great, plenty of tech, really cool engine tech, all priced to compete, RUINED by a CVT. It's absolutely maddening seeing my beloved Nissan CONTINUE to ignore everyone's disdain for that damn transmission and CONTINUE to force it on us. It's no wonder sales are so low. I'm an admitted Nissan fanboy and even I don't want one. Come tf on, Nissan.
2 billion USD by Nissan spent on Jatco CVTs. Time to reverse reengineer a CVT from Toyota or Honda. Subaru started the CVT in the Justy 30+ years ago...
Getting rid of the Platinum trim was smart. The Altima and the word "Platinum" don't go well together. Especially since the Altima is a "family" sedan.
I thought that was a previous gen hyundai in the thumbnail, I don't think I need to say more. Though it's still way better looking that either the accord or camry, though that's not hard to achieve
Last man standing... I mean last mid size sedan with a powerful turbo engine... I guess it could've made a better time to 60MPH, I managed 6.6s in a 0 to 100km/h (62PMH)
According to the video, the range-topping Platinum was dropped, and now the SR with VC Turbo is a separate trim, versus a standalone option, as the top model. There is no Nismo Altima, don't remember there ever being one.
They used to on the upper trim models. They also got rid of the auto dimming rear view mirror with built-in home link buttons for your garage door. I guess most trailer homes don't come with a garage, so who needs the homelink.
Why does Nissan INSIST on the continued use of those awful CVTs?? Do they listen to their customers? I really want to love the Nissan brand, but I just can't stomach the lack of gears.
Doesn't the Sonata N-Line have 30-40 more bhp? That is the category they're putting this Nissan in, along with the Kia and Toyota Camry. This Nissan is sooo outclassed here.....
@@markb3756 then why mention hp as if that has anything to go with what class or category is in? You compared the Camry and whatever kia and the sonata to the Nissan and mentioned hp as the reason why is outclassed... So no i didn't know that you knew that already.
The front needs LED fog lamps to go along with the headlights. They missed an opportunity for cooling ducts as well with the huge fake honeycomb insert.
With Honda dropping its top engine for the Accord, and Nissan continuing to make the Altima bland and with CVTs too no less, I’d say the Camry has no competition in sight.
I just wish Nissan would drop that 💩 Jatco CVT once and for all! Tap Aisin or Honda to manufacture the CVT, or switch back to standard automatics. They would actually be a contender at that point 🙄
The base 2.5L 4 should’ve been replaced with the Rogue’s 1.5L VC turbo 3 and using it’s better CVT. Could possibly lose some airport rental status and BAE like that.
Think the Altima should pick up some Accord buyers now that the 2.0T is dropped. Too bad that Nissan does not offer the Altima with the AWD option, and also a torque converter automatic as hard to get that excited about a CVT and FWD only.

F1 drivers 1000hp Supra driver< Nissan Altima driver yeah they don’t stand a chance 😂😂😂 the Altima was a always a good looking car tho especially next to the Honda and Toyota .
I admit Nissan has improved their designs, but their reliability has dramatically worsened. I own a bloody mini and had a minor issue with it in 22'000 km since i bought it used.. (it's 2015) And a guy across my street bought a 2020 nissan sentra only driven 45'000 km since he bought it already has technology issues. The main reason Nissan is going bankrupt is also due to Infiniti. Infiniti in general is spiraling down so fast, they had to pull their market from Europe and only sell Suvs here in North america to try and raise sales. Does anybody actually notice the fact Infiniti hasn't updated their designs in like 10 years.... that's why!! Nissan needs to fix all the problems with reliability.... consumer reports show brand new sentra A freaking cheap economy car Rated 2.8/5 for trustworthy or engine reliability. To be beat out by Mini Come on! Minis average reliability for anything past 2016 is now 3.7/5

Looks great. But the drive train is the same as a 2007. 2.5 and a CVT. Lame.

It sounds appealing and looks good but that dammed CVT is just an instant turn off.
*UNFORTUNATELY NO LED TAILLIGHTS* shame shame shame shame shame
F1 drivers 1000hp Supra driver< Nissan Altima driver yeah they don’t stand a chance 😂😂😂 the Altima was a always a good looking car tho especially next to the Honda and Toyota .
I admit Nissan has improved their designs, but their reliability has dramatically worsened.
I own a bloody mini and had a minor issue with it in 22'000 km since i bought it used.. (it's 2015)
And a guy across my street bought a 2020 nissan sentra only driven 45'000 km since he bought it already has technology issues.
The main reason Nissan is going bankrupt is also due to Infiniti.
Infiniti in general is spiraling down so fast, they had to pull their market from Europe and only sell Suvs here in North america to try and raise sales. Does anybody actually notice the fact Infiniti hasn't updated their designs in like 10 years.... that's why!!
Nissan needs to fix all the problems with reliability.... consumer reports show brand new sentra
A freaking cheap economy car
Rated 2.8/5 for trustworthy or engine reliability.
To be beat out by Mini
Come on! Minis average reliability for anything past 2016 is now 3.7/5
Nothing to write home about 😕

Camry XLE V6
I was never a lover or fan of Nissan. Lots of issues with reliably issues. I must say this looks nice though
I thought it was an elantra before I clicked
