love this new altima great job guys!!
Thanks! We appreciate that!
Just bought one today and I love it 😍
Congrats!
Hey, just wanted to get an update as I’m looking for one. Do you still have it? If so, have you had any issues with it ?
Well I really must give an absolute honest review of the 2019 Nissan Altima. I offer my opinion based on the fact that I own one and that prior to purchasing I checked out and compared the 2019 Honda and the 2019 Toyota.
Honda accord ,, smaller engine, front wheel drive, lacking many of the features of the Nissan Altima ,, $ 3988.60 ( Can. ) more expensive. Toyota Camry XSE all wheel drive, nicely equipped, finish not as nice as the Altima and had fewer safety features and was $ 4199.74 ( Can. ) more expensive than the Altima.
The CVT is flawless, smooth as silk combined with the improved 2.5 engine and this vehicle more than meets my needs. My Altima is the four wheel drive Platinum model it's fully loaded and the safety features are exceptional. The colour of my Altima is Sunset Drift ,, ( love it !! ), it has low profile 19" Hankook tires. The vehicle came with a winter package, a full set of Firestone tires mounted on smart alloys.
The Nissan Altima was an outstanding value, great performance, very comfortable, highly pleased with my purchase. I simply have nothing negative at all to say about the CVT but there certainly is a great deal of negative comments about the CVT. I wonder how many of these individuals that post negative reviews about the CVT actually own a vehicle equipped with CVT ,, very few, if any.
I need an update, getting an sr today
Good review & great Altima.
Great review!
Thanks!
Great Job Honest advice about What your getting and paying For this is why I watch Always Stay safe and Blessed 🙏🙏
Thank you for sharing!
I love this channel and all the good information 👏 👍
Thanks!
Nice review. Thank you
Glad you liked it!
Four years ago today! Might try to get one.
This still great first Nissan sedan I can buy.
Just bought one yesterday
Ty for the video 👏👏👏
Glad you liked it!
Thanks for pointing out the simulated shifting. I had an Infiniti JX 35 2013 and it drove me crazy with just constant revving and so gear changes. Ugh.
Good Review 👈
The interior and exterior has this hate it or love it styling. There’s really no neutral feeling for it 🤔. I do like the red stitching throughout the cabin.
I love how you guys provide OUTSTANDING reviews no matter what the weatherman predicts 👍🏽
I couldnt have said it better myself lol
It’s actually orange not red
I can’t wait for Acura MDX Vs Honda Pilot
On my Altima 2014 I'm getting 42 mpg on HWY. Nice.
Why Nissan did not put fog light on the SR which is suppose to be the sporting version, not even in 2020 model. I have a SV model AWD and it has LED fog lights.
Please comparison Maxima vs Altima
Nice review
Thanks as always, friend!
this video tripped me out when i watched it, i thought the place looked familiar, i live behind the dealership
Lol, that's hilarious 😂
Nissan hit this one out the ball park.optional AWD. The base stereo still outperforms the competition as usual 😂😂The exterior is easy on the eyes unlike the 2018 Accord. Only thing Nissan needs to do is add LED on the rear and a PANORAMIC SUNROOF and also options for a traditional auto transmission and they'll be back on top
True
The base stereo is really good and its not even bose
I agree on the transmission. The CVT transmission hasn’t been getting a lot of good reviews
The stereo on the Nissan Altima always been good. I have a 2007
Nissan Altima and it sounds great.
wish you talked more about the AWD performance, feel and difference....especially since you were driving in wet / slippery conditions. Nothing also about road noise, that I heard..
30th Like!!! Y'all are on fire.
Where I am suppose to place my front plate??? California law requieres to have both plates (front and back)
bpr38elcheco front plate goes on the front. There is an area for it. I just bought one yesterday
bpr38elcheco on your dashboard.
You can put it on the grill of the car
Great Nissan.
Traditional shifter is the best shifter because the modern push button gear shifts malfunction.
Great interior
I have to say that just based on the video evidence, the CVT sounds horrible compared to the Civic. I think that it's the biggest weakness of the new model. I haven't driven it, but the sounds coming through just told me that it's very disappointing. Just my two cents. Thanks for another great in-depth review guys.
You're very welcome! Thanks for watching!
It's better in person if you can believe it. When I test drove the Platinum FWD it was a very quiet and smooth ride. Quieter than the Mazda 6 signature I was cross shopping it with.
I test drove 1 and the response is amazing and i didnt hear any droning. Maybe learn 2 drive with your foot not so heavy on the pedal all the time. Even under heavy throttle little noise.
Dude he goes to about 3k rpm only and you can tell from that its worse than the civic? You could barely even hear the engine. At the end he uses the paddles for a second lol. But you can tell from video evidence its worse??? Lmfao. If anything the cvt in the civic sounds like its slurring between the shifts compared to the altima.
@@occckid123 First of all, you should perhaps learn to read carefully. I said it was my two cents. I also said that I hadn't driven the Altima. All I was basing my opinion on was my impression from the audio from this video. I listened through my headphones, so I was able to hear things more clearly. I love how you can automatically assume that I must have a lead foot because of how I drive. When did I mention how I drove? If you're happy with your experience, that's great. Do me a favour and stop presuming that you can tell me how to interpret what I heard, or experienced when I drove a number of new Civic models. Notice that I'm not trying to tell you how you experienced things. Good day kid.
The CVT must go. Do a 👍 if agreed. So many great cars out there would become even greater if offered with a manual, and a 5 or 6 speed auto only. I say this because my last 2 vehicles have been 6 speed automatic, but I find myself in 4 or 5 most of the time. Literally have almost never used 6th in either one. For the manufacturers which insist on CVT, while telling us that is all they will offer, word of advice: If we the buying public stopped buying CVT equipped vehicles, you would have no choice but to offer alternatives. Dont make us go there.
@Car Confections Please note how many of your commenters do not like CVT. Maybe mention this to the dealers you visit.
Cheers. Great review as always. You guys out in the rain shows real dedication.
Thanks!
Great video!! I love the 2019 Nissan Altima, it's very sexy and sharp!!! I lease a 2019 Nissan Altima or Toyota Camry or Toyota Corolla for my first car. I can't wait for y'all next video.
Thanks Darrion!
@@CarConfections yall welcome
I just got mine and it's waiting at my local Nissan dealer I bet mine is built at Smyrna, Tennessee!!!😍😍😍
Congrats! You'll love it! What trim did you choose?
Hmmm Platinum Edition One if I'm not mistaken
@@CarringtonHollister so you have the turbo model?
@@CarringtonHollister so you bought the turbo model is it fast?
I don’t care about all the technology and interior looks. Reliability is the main thing I care about and price of course.
How much is that? price?
You guys are in the SR trim, no? I heard that specific one got bashed the most for ride quality and such since the suspension is supposed to be "tighter and better handling". I personally had zero interest in the SR because it lacks so much technology found only in the SV and then SL+ for the finishing touches.
Yes, the model in this review was the 2.5 SR AWD. Even with the sport suspension the SR still rides comfortablely, but it is definitely not as sporty as some of the rivals like the Accord Sport and Mazda 6.
@@giofromtexas2679 tbh I like how Nissan packages their vehicles. Getting any vehicle with a long list of options is just confusing and easy to turn customers away when they see how expensive they're making their car. It's a psychology thing. Then there's the categorization. I see an SR trim Nissan and I know it's a bottom tier vehicle (unless its the Maxima for some reason they put that higher than SV) whereas when i see an SL I can assume that this car is pretty nice. Idk maybe just me. I do agree that they need to get more standard features for every trim upgrade though. They're slowly falling behind especially fast when compared to the midsize segment
@@devongee1776 That's what I'm saying. A person is paying more money for less value. That's crazy. When other brands give you more for the money!
@@giofromtexas2679 I would disagree with comparing the Forte to the Altima regardless though my man. And Altima is cheaper than its competitors from Japan so it's actually NOT paying more for less. However, if you want to bring the fight to their garbage ass Nissan Sentra, I'm on your team all day long. They need to get rid of that car altogether or buff it up already. I'd be surprised if it wasn't the bottom of its class. I know the new Forte takes a hot dump all over it. The new Jetta and Civic not too far behind either. Even the Elantra is pretty competent. Mazda 3 could almost be in a class of its own.
@@giofromtexas2679 the altima is not in the same class as the forte.
I was comparing Altima to Subaru Legacy and while I like both vehicles, Subaru infotainment was just too much. I really don’t need to know everything, just let me drive and not be distracted every time I need to turn on heated seats or change air vent directions, it honestly took me 3 steps.
I love Nissan's
By the way I love my 2019 Altima SR my 2020 Roge sport and my 2021 murano.
Do you change the cvt fluid?
I love this car 🚗 ❤️
My 2019 sr was 32000..the low model starts around $25500
You could have got a 2019 Subaru wrx limited for that price
I actually saw the new one but I haven't been in it
This new Altima is just missing a direct shift AT. I don't like the CVT. Thanks.
You don't like the CVT ,, based on what ? do you own one ? probably not ,,,
Why are you bashing CVT??? Have you own one or just bashing because others are. LOL I have own Honda with CVT, Subaru_CVT, Toyota_CVT and now 2019 Altima AWD with CVT and they all perform great and fuel efficient. I will not go back to traditional step automatic, especially with small 4 cylinders where you constant notice it shift up, down, up and down going over hilly areas. With CVT, it just put the power right where the power is needed, hold it there and pull you thru without hearing your gearing changing. LOL Been there done that and I love my CVT.
Do maxima vs Altima
2018 Toyota Camry XSE or the 2019 Nissan Altima SR. Which one should I get ?
The SR is quite a bit less expensive. The SE Camry is priced against the Altima SR
Altima
Am I weird for liking how the CVT feels? I'm not a huge driving guy so after I got my altima I don't like shifts anymore
No. I have a lifetime warranty on mine. No worries.
Why Nissan don't offer AWD on the vc turbo engine?
Bcuz they’re lame
Because they know it would ruin sales for the Maxima a AWD VC turbo Altima would get more attention because it would be faster than the Maxima at that point and Nissan knows it
What color is this, gray or gun metallic?
Gun metallic
Can you do a review on the 2019 Malibu premier
If we can find one!
I wish it had a eco mood
That look likes the 2020 Altima sr
nissan really took a page out of mazdas playbook on that dash setup.
motaz1975 copy from the best!!
But what did Michael say to you. 👀😂
Lmao
How is the road noise inside the cabin while driving?
It seemed pretty quiet to us
This model actually came out in 2018 not 2019
Forget about looks. Let's talk reliability
Facts thats all I wanna know
Toyota Camry vs The Nissan Altima
We are definitely gonna do some comparisons with the Altima for sure!
Altima will piss and shit all over that dreadful Camry lol
I cant really speak on the new ones but with the older ones the Nissan and Honda were the sportier (sportier not sporty) sedans and the Toyota was the more reliable one
ТАЧКА СУПЕР...
i find honda accord to be more attractive personally... it looks a lot luxurious for its price point and segment its my personal opinion
I give 10 month before that CVT starts acting up lol.
Now you might say that Nissan’s have a bad reputation because the people who own them do not take care of them. However, let me tell you. I work parts at a Nissan dealership, there are so many CVT’s being replaced on vehicles that are maticulously maintained. We constantly have 7-8 CVT’s sitting in storage. And we don’t stock them, they are all on Special Order Requests which means they all have cars waiting for them.
The worst I have seen is a 2015 Nissan Sentra that’s had two CVT’s replaced under warranty and one replaced at the cost of owner.
The French ruined Nissan. All the pre-2004 Nissan vehicles never needed any major repairs.
What's the 'technical' difference between Nissan's CVT and Honda's CVT..... As the Civic & Accord Cars have CVT but nobody talks shit about them.. so I'd like to know.. ( Hope u can indulge me )
ThePabloG30 Honda makes their own CVT’s while Nissan’s CVT’s are supplied by JATCO. Also, Nissan forces JATCO to keep the cost low. So cost-cutting is major.
Honda also does not pair any engine over 200hp with CVT while Nissan does it with their V6 as well as turbos. CVT’s cannot handle the torque from those more powerful engines.
@@LouAntonioGiordano my dad's cvt has almost 150k
@Louis Win I went throught the whole “French ruination” thing (via Renault, no less) as a Chrysler tech 88-94. I say manual 6 speed or automatic 6 speed on everything is sufficient.
@@mvkmvk4099 my 2008 versa had 210k on it. Dads 2014 pathfinder has over 100k on that cvt and im at 125k on my 2016 altima cvt

Your typical highschool soccer mom of 3 car right here lol.
Cool car lease it so you can get rid of it before the cvt goes .But I still like the chevy impala anyway
g gggh haha what is there to like about the impala
You're comment insists the reliability is bad on this car then you end by saying you rather have an impala which everyone knows is atrocious
Please make your comment make sense
I see quite a bit of wrinkled leather.
The Altima is a great car, but has one non-adjustable setting that is a major red flag (at least for me).
From a stopped position, it is a pig off of the line.
For normal, typical, day-to-day driving, it is not a problem. In fact, for many folks, it will help control the car; prevent wheel spin.
The problem is that when you do want to accelerate, quickly, from a stop, you cannot.
For example, if you are at a light, in the left lane, and you realize that you need to make a right at the next light, you can forget about getting ahead the car to your right when the light turns green.
Once rolling, the acceleration is very good. But Nissan has de-tuned the engine, perhaps for better gas mileage or bad drivers. If you do not mind having low power from a stop, then this is a very good car for the price.
Thats the same as my corolla but its nowhere near a deal breaker for me....I dont buy the car to try to race the car beside me to cut in front of it at the light, and most other people don't either. Buy a sports car if driving fast is your thing
@@nomaderic Racing? Why did you inject racing into a normal situation that happens on the road?
What is unsafe about pulling ahead of a car to change lanes?
Perhaps you drive slow, create traffic, and people cut you off, and you take that to be cars racing to get in front of you?
People safely accelerate to change lanes all of the time. That has nothing to do with racing.
Accelerating to get in front of someone is not racing. It is normal driving.
Sometimes braking to change lanes is best. But that is not always an option.
Getting ahead of someone to change lanes might be best. And that is not racing.
I assume that anyone that passes you is a racer?
I have a 2003, 2.5 liter Nissan Sentra. It is not even remotely a race car. But it has power from a stop. That is not a bad thing.
@@NoEgg4u While what you are saying is safer on the highway, in the city on a normal road that is not optimal. Quit trying to be first and just merge in line like you are supposed to
I drive fast all the time, I just know when and when its not proper to do so. My life is driving, I drive a couple hundred thousand miles a year if not more in every corner of this country. You aren't gonna sit here and explain how to drive to me.
@@NoEgg4u doing what you are saying is actually more dangerous from one red light to the other because you are accelerating to get in front of someone only so you can slow back down to turn.
That is not only dangerous for you but even more so for the person you just rushed to get in front of....now that person has to stop just because you wanted to get in front to turn.
Its not rocket science its common sense. I see people do exactly what you described everyday. Its wreckless entitled driving with no regard for the other driver
@@nomaderic Again you are obsessed with racing.
Nowhere did I ever state, suggest, or recommend racing.
Nowhere did I ever state, suggest, or recommend doing anything unsafe.
Nowhere did I ever state, suggest, or recommend racing ahead of someone, cutting them off, and pressing the brakes.
You made all of that up.
Why does your mind keep going down that path?
Getting ahead of someone to make a turn can be unsafe (they way you are stuck on envisioning it). And I suspect that you drive slow and people cut you off, which is why you see anyone getting ahead of you as always being unsafe.
People get ahead of me all the time.
Most do so safely. Some do not.
I get ahead of people all of the time, and never cut them off.
I get behind people all of the time, too.
This is what is referred to as normal, safe driving -- not racing.
The next light can be 1/2 mile away. There is nothing unsafe about getting ahead of the person next to you (a slow driver like you), to make an exit.
Lots of exists have run-offs (a new lane dedicated for the exit). That is the lane used to slow down for the exit. I suspect that you slow down before getting into the run-off lane and create traffic, and cause others to unexpectedly brake, and risking accidents. Such drivers care zero about the chaos they cause behind them, and mindlessly drive away from the traffic and unsafe conditions that they create.
You wrote:
"I see people do exactly what you described everyday"
You see imaginary conditions that I never described.
You see the worst in every condition.
You see every person that passes you as a maniac.
You see normal, safe driving as speed daemons, because they passed you.
I never proposed speeding.
I never proposed unsafe driving.
I never proposed cutting anyone off.
You fabricated all of that in your mind.
You took a simple aspect of my review, pertaining to the car's acceleration from a stop, and you went off the deep end.
Yes, people race and do unsafe things. But that has zero to do with anything that I wrote, and it has everything to do with your convoluted, paranoid driving state of mind.
Finally got rid of the worthless Nissan Connect.
The cvt will die at 50000 miles .
Doesn’t compare to the Accord
In what aspects? Just curious
@@b.f.378 accord has a more luxurious look inside similar to bmw or audi. The accord also comes with dual zone AC and with the 2nd trim the sport you get 19' wheels. The accord front looks way better imo.
@@jasontaylor5535 Yea, the Accord always had a more luxurious feel than its competitors, especially the Altima which always had a bland interior and cheap build inside
For blind peoole the accord wins. If you're forced to look at it the decision is much more difficult
@@uncarriert-mobileusa9013 i bet you wont go around to telling people theres on the 2018 camry for broken pistons.
