Notice to the people whining about the turn signal volume. During an oil change at a Nissan dealer I asked if the volume could be lowered. Service tech said “sure we can place a 3M noise dampening pad where the noise comes out of”. I said okay, and turn signal noise was reduced by 50%! So there you go, improvise instead of whining people😂

People here acting like Nissan is the only manufacturer who uses a CVT. It’s getting old reading the same comments. They’ve also improved their product.

Perfect rental car. I got one for 5 days. Lots of driving. Only had to fill the tank while returning. Outstanding economy for a gas car. The CVT will always be unnerving for someone used to traditional shifts. But I also noticed that the engine RPM was actually below 2k even while cruising at 80. (no wonder it achieves the fuel economy that it does)

i think the Altima offers the sportiest appearance out of the 3 mid sized sedans and that is a huge selling factor especially considering Nissan fixed their CVT issue, but at the end of the day it's still a Nissan, and the Accord/ Camry is the best value for the buck. the Honda Civic Hatchback Sport Touring (which isn't really in the same class as this sedan. ) is about the same size, has a sportier appearance, proven reliability, better handling, and best tech for a little less $$. truly depends on what you're looking for.

sure, but if you look around you still see Y2K Altimas on the road. as long as you change your oil, and what most people don't do SERVICE THE CVT, you can get a good 200K miles out of an Altima before major issues arise. that being said the best value for your money when you're looking at Altimas is going to be the SR AWD w/ premium package.

I rented an Altima with the turbo engine it was surprisingly sporty and nice to drive I kinda understand why the owners drive like maniacs

I had a base model Altima as a rental and it was so much better than expected, seats were so comfortable and the CVT was the best CVT I’ve ever driven and I’ve driven Honda and Toyota CVTs which are much more reliable. The transmission was so quick and responded almost instantly and the car itself was pretty quick. It had a nice sound from the engine and great standard features. Pretty comfortable too.

Put 30k miles on a 2022 Altima; the haters are wrong on this one. Got insane gas mileage, the cvt was fine, and it was the most comfortable interior I've ever been in, especially for the price. Heard of multiple people with 200k on these with regular maintenance. Nissan has stepped up their game.

What a relaxed car . This is actually pretty good

I owned a 05 Altima with 152k miles and that thing was a freaking 95% maintenance free diehard beast. I pushed it to the limits and she gave me a quality ride for every time I got behind the wheel.....man.

I just finished commenting today about the signal sound, it’s dinky but if that’s the only problem 🤷🏽‍♀️ renting currently and no complaints - roomy, simple use, love the 19” wheels and lines. If I bought it I’d definitely get tints

Perfect car!! Really good video👌👌👌

I have the SR trim and It feels like not enough is mentioned about how nimble and planted it feels with the sport tuned suspension. It might not be the fastest sedan out there but it's damn fun to drive on curvy roads. Although you have to accept the fact that with 19 inch wheels and stiffer suspension it's not the most plush ride but you trade that for a surprisingly fun car to drive.

We need cooled seats in the Rogue and Altima!!

Extremely comfortable seats and Bose system the best in class

you can also put it in Sport mode by clicking that button on the shifter knob

Nice video buddy, thanks🎉

I've historically hated on Nissan since they started getting less reliable and interesting. But I cannot deny this is excellent value and a nice design.

I paid for 182hp I gonna use all 182hp all the time

I look forward to seeing these new ones all beat up doing 20 under the speed limit in the fast lane.

I really liked my 2020 Altima SL AWD. Im glad they put a more realistic wood appliqué on the dash, the old one was humorously fake looking. This is the exact color & spec I would choose.

Love the screen

It’s our greatest pleasure to see that Nissan had made such a huge progress, but still,I thought that it could enlarge its power and torque figures at the same time.😂❤

At least it still has real exhaust tips

I drive the sr version of this and it's underrated especially the paddles which work surprisingly nice, sadly there's a lot of overhang and the turn signals are the worst

I like style wise that they went with 19’s for the wheels, However they definitely compromise the ride Vs the 17’s. Literally 2 inches of tire vs 5-6…let’s be honest we know which ones gonna feel better 😈

love that color

Im goin to test drive this today and you made it easy for me to get in lol...i drive a 6 cyl infin so idk if i can deal w that delay...we shall see

I recently rented a car and they gave me the new Altima but the SR trim . Loved it drove great. But I agree the turn signal was super loud and the tone click of it wasn’t pleasant

Looks really nice inside! Nissan needs to start using some regular autos in their cars more and they would be higher rated!

looks nice. Hope we have this in the Philippines

really like Nissan's steering wheel

This car is actually sick, 2.5 with awd

Would love for you to check out the new 24 Sonata & Elantra when they come out. The lease is up soon on my 21' Sonata N-Line so I'm probably looking to grab one of those, or the Accord Hybrid

I'll say it again ( a lot of reviewers miss it) Nissans do have a sport mode. It's the small white button on the back of the shift knob.

Tank you

The reason why these engines are so good is the torque, they are tuned to deliver peak torque at 3500 RPM not 5500 like their Japanese rivals. The CVT is kind of bouncy off the start in some low speed situations, definitely the worst part about the car but not a deal breaker considering everything else. It was like they put all their eggs into long distance highway cruising and it paid off. 40mpg @ 80mph, with minimal wind noise, 10/10 comfortable seats, long wheel base and easy to keep tracking straight with a functional adaptive cruise... I've sat 4 hours straight in this thing and got out completely fine. Brakes are solid too and loaded up with passengers the vehicle doesn't change its character at all.

Did you not notice the Sport Mode button on the gear shift? You would have noticed the difference in power pick up speed with acceleration. Especially when climbing hills. Plus you get tighter suspension. I love that feature.

I just noticed the tachometer doesnt go up linear. It goes 0 2 3 and puts the 1 on, what is normally, a half marking.

The official car of "I had made bad life decisions" and "I drive 25mph in the fast lane and 100mph+ speeds in the slow lane". Also, how long before this car will need duct tape to hold onto its bumpers? 😂

I noticed that loud turning signal even before you mentioned it. Pretty strange. Maybe its volume can be adjusted in the settings like in Mazdas?

Is there a volume button for the turning signal? I immediately thought the same thing before you even mentioned it! A little on the loud side. I bet there is a way to shut it off and still be able to use the turning signal.

Owned a 2009 for a year, bought it used under 100k miles. Ill say it doesnt live up to my 06’ maxima, but im moving up to a 2020 altima sl. I have high hopes and am just greatful to have bose and leather seats again

Now do a review on an old Altima with a messed up bumper, fuzzy steering wheel and some big Altima energy.

Turn signal sound should be configured in a menu. At least I have such toggle in my Mazda menu

Exactly 💯 sounds perfect I'm so scared to drive 😅

When you consider buying a Nissan remember this... At some point, Nissan removed the oil light, the temperature guage, and turn signal indicators on certain models inside the dash to save money. Oh and they made just one backup light work to also save money on the bulbs....

Had one as rental and enabled driving assist and purposely ignored all the alerts. It slows down, occasionally pumps the brakes to get your attention then just stops, puts on the hazards and enables the e brake. It also began to call someone as if I pressed the SOS button.

I have the 2.0 version and it is amazing

My buddy’s mom’s 2020 Altima (first model year for the new gen) has a turn signal that’s nowhere near this loud. They must have made it louder at some point. Weird

oh, i like your videos. i will learn to your video. 😜

Feeling comfortable,the engineers could still think about how to improve the headroom of the three back seaters.🎉😅

I will say, the newer Altimas turn signal is VERY loud because I had to turn down my volume when it came on 😂. I drive an older model and it's almost silent

Nice well developed awd auto. How does it compare with a Subaru Legacy 2.5? Which drives better in your opinion?

I really want this now 😂

Is there any rule in us that ban to advertise 0-60 and top speed info of the car?

Is platinum the same as SL? In canada we don't have SL but we have platinum...and it looks similar?

I could tell in the video the turn signal was a bit loud. So many cars these days have goofy buttons/switches, huge super bright screens that blind you at night when driving, and glass roofs that shatter and or leak water into the interior. CVT trans that fail.

True to that...dat turn signal is loud , sounds like the devil clock.

No sport mode test? There is a button on the rear aspect shift handle towards the bottom!

All I think about when I hear about Nissan drivers is that this must be a really fun car to drive

These newer Altimas are actually good cars. The model name just has a bad reputation for its drivers

It doesn't look much different from my 2019 besides the wheels and the display. I am sure it still has the problem of skipping tracks and or stations.. when you hit a bump just too perfectly.. wish the 2024 would have ac seats too to give it more of an edge over older models.Also, my 2019 has auto roll down for both driver and front passenger, so that's weird😅

I know someone who got this exact spec on lease for 2000$ down 299 a month for 24 months. wonder if that’s a deal

When do we get to see the VC turbo?

This is what Nissan Europe is missing

That turn signal would make me wanna end it all
