Is the 2023 Nissan Altima Turbo a BETTER sport sedan than a Kia K5 GT?

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

The Altima is getting some upgrades from Nissan for 2023. On the outside of the SR Turbo you will discover one of two new colors, unique 19in wheels, aggressive new front fascia and grill. On the inside you will be greeted by zero gravity seats, a new 12.3in infotainments system and standard size sunroof. Under the hood is a 2.0L turbocharged inline-4 mated to a CVT. Is the 2023 Nissan Altima Turbo a BETTER sport sedan than a Kia K5 GT?

    Thanks again team...great video. I've owned three Nissan's and those all seemed to be ahead of the curve when it came to technology and being ahead of the curve against the competition. Nowadays, it seems like the value (and excitement) just isn't there when compared to other vehicles in the class (even the all new Z car was a letdown in my opinion) Non-LED lighting, plain analog gauges, basic sunroof, large gaps in the panels, 1990's keyfob (that is the same keyfob I had in my 2008 CX-7) and noisy CVT just don't justify the cost. Also, as you pointed out, the exterior seems like a style mess with too many lines, shapes and colors that are not cohesive.

    In my opinion, the daytime running light needs to stretch the full length of the headlight like the Sentra. The wheels look plastic in person because of the finish. The gap between the headlight and engine cover is slightly less abrasive but still noticeable and a concern in stormy weather. The fake front vents look terrible from the side because it follows no body lines and needs fog lights. It would be cool to see a black line followed from - front (real) intake to the grill. The lack of a blacked out front chrome V-Motion grill kind of leans away from their design language in comparison to the previous model. I like the interior screen though!

    Listen I do like the styling on the 5th gen but the 6th gen facelift is just that much better I don’t see how anyone could prefer the styling on the old one to the new one, it’s simpler yet more aggressive, it absolutely looks atleast equally as sporty of an sr trim as the later 5th gens and I’d say its got sportier styling, it’s almost not even objective. Pre face lift 6th gen sr yes are mediocre for sporty styling but the 23 model looks damn good.

    Great review and you asked why would someone go with the 2.5 without the Turbo. We bought our 17 year old daughter a 2023 Altima SR without the turbo because it is fast enough for her. Actually her’s is pretty darn quit for what it is and we have to watch her lead foot. So that is why.

    JJ ~ SR Wheels = SUPREME. splash guards really are functional. baby sunroof ? - passable / good enough. they could have used the money on that back thingy for rear led turn signals. it falls behind competition engine & transmission wise, but if you compare Altimas to previous Altimas it is making gains ( slowly evolving ). interior is nicer than average. I dig the RETRO KEYFOB lol. I like the steering wheel. rear seats looking roomy. the interior stitching really give the interior a cool contrast & looks a little expensive. oh look, a school zone > ON THROTTLE lol. I wish it gave ya better feedback. AGREED 9 Spd. auto would make a big difference. on my Benz - the turn signal sound increases if I'm listening to music on the sound system - like it tries to match the loudness of the stereo to make sure you actually have the true signal on. I'd say good NISSAN improvements & an average to above average car ( good for moms ). thank you team Raiti, I love you guys. tony

    CVTs get a bad rap. Yes they drone and yes you don’t get the traditional gear change sound and feel but the tech and what it does for performance/ fuel mileage gets overlooked. F1 engineers and builders would go nuts if they could use CVT in fact Williams F1 tested one in there car in the early 90s😊

As far as Kia/Hyundai go they’re the new “old Nissan” when it comes to transmission issues. I’ve joined telluride & k5 groups and so many people have had transmissions replaced under 25k miles.

    I will say that Nissan is better than Hyundai and Kia only because they have a lawsuit and are paying billions of dollars to fix and replace engines while Nissan is making good engines and now I understand some people are biased about the CVT transmissions but you have to maintain them and change the fluid of the CVT and not have it flushed so it doesn’t break. And Nissan is doing better replacing the pathfinder and frontier to the 9 speed automatic so time will only tell when the rest of the line up with Nissan will get the 9 speed. This altima is very nice i will say. But if I had $37,000 I probably would get this car knowing that some Nissan dealers do offer a lifetime warranty of the engine and transmission of course. And Nissan is different and unique from the competiton but I will say Kia and Hyundai is no good.

    A good looking car, Nissan almost got it right huge Nissan fan love the Altima really changes on 2023 makes think of going back to a sedan. I am little disappointed that doesn't have LED taillights and deleted fog lights the SR Turbo should have available (9 speed autimatic) it's a beautiful car as much loving the 2023 Altima the K5 might be better for the price still this car is going to be a huge seller seen several of them on highway besides think Nissan is getting better ... BTW. Overall very pleased with the Altima just disappointed that Nissan kept the same taillight housing from 2019-22 also with this trim level SR Turbo should had 9 speed automatic interior/exterior is nice.
