I always liked the Altima's design as it's unique to its own. You'll never confuse it with another sedan. Yeah, It may not be as good as the popular competitors but unlike the rest of the midsize sedans, it doesn't try to mimick that fastback design.
🎯 yeah I don’t like the fast back design either. I tried to like the Honda Accord, but I just couldn’t That’s why I ended up getting the 2020 Altima SR!great car!.
My family has had three Nissan Altimas.... 2008 model that my daughter purchased as her first car. She sold it to a couple in Nashville, TN. Had 175k miles on it. Absolutely a great car. A 2013 model which I did not like and traded in for my current 2015 model. The 2015 has been a great car. Gets almost 40 mpg on the highway. Has 112k miles on it. No problems yet.
Instead it has Siri Eyes Free. You can do everything with voice commands that Carplay can, but you just can't have navigation on the screen (but navigation still goes through the speakers). It's no biggie really, I just use my phone screen for navigation and keep the Altima's screen on entertainment. There's also some kind of built-in Nissan call and text system that has a terrible robotic voice that will read your texts, so I don't use it. When I get a text the annoying built in system pops up a message asking me to read it aloud, but I ignore it and push the voice button and tell it to read my latest message, which it then does through the Siri Eyes Free (with Siri's voice). Same thing to send a text or make a phone call.
Thanks for the great review. We just purchased the 24 Altima AWD in SR trim. We are really enjoying the smooth ride, comfortable seats and upgraded interior. The only negative so far is the blinker volume. It’s insanely loud and annoying. Is there any way to lower it? Thanks again
I have a 2011 Altima SL that I’ve had for 12 years now. I’m almost at 200,000 kms (about 120,000 miles) and it’s still going strong. Never had any problems with the CVT transmission. My mechanic gave it a flush last year to keep the fluid clean. I keep up on all routine maintenance and use synthetic oil. I would definitely consider a new one once I need to replace this one, especially as it’s now available with AWD (a plus in Canada). I’d go for the SL, I like the premium sound system and heated seats.
I have a 2020 Nissan Altima S and I have a bigger digital display, power drivers side seat, aux, 2 USB chargers, and a bigger radio screen. I Love mine ..
I just bought one of these and I was so mad when I got it home. The S trim doesn't have the intelligent key. You have to use the remote to lock/unlock/open trunk. I'm so mad I didn't notice this at the dealer. It's my 3rd S trim Altima and the other two had it.
That's dated info. Nissan Altima CVTs after 2016 have been problem free, at least for owners who change the transmission fluid every 30K as recommended.
@@Kirin2022 Kirin, You are correct. My employer has more than 20 Altimas in its motor pool, and I have driven many miles in four states in the 2018 through 2023 base models. These CVTs run fine. We keep them about three years and then send them to auction.
@@NissanAltimaGuy im thinking about getting one but there’s too many CVT horror stories online about them.. yes they’re all older models however, but I’ve even seen some bad reviews for 2020 models and up

Now my first new Nissan Altima I can afford.
Me too 🎉🎉🎉

Thanks for the usual awesome base model reviews. Please review the Nissan Titan S (Base model) next👍🏻
I'll definitely try!
@@goldponyWhat's the difference between the '23 and the '24 Altima on base model?

There's no Car Play/Android Play on basic S trim.
My dealer told me otherwise and I found out only after I bought it.
I just found this out too...and I'm so mad
Nissan Connect will let you connect wirelessly according to Nissan

Excellent review. Thank you.
I own one of these! 😍
Congrats! 🎉
how are you liking it?
@@AOMVideoProductions ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ so far
@@F15C_Eagle how many miles on it and how’s the infamous transmission holding up?

That's your fault bruh
I get tired of having to push the button too. It's worse than not having Apple Car Play.
@crazymarko1278 so the S trim doesn't inclued AndroidAuto ?
Thanks for a great review. A great car marred by a CVT.

@@Kirin2022just changed fluid for the first time at 163k miles.. Still good
This is the last year for the Altima and possibly Versa as well.
….and possibly for Nissan as well
Yep.
Wow i thought altima would be around for a while longer.
No longer making Maxima ….Rogue sport. Near future cars will be electric/hybrid. No word on which models will be around or not.
I don’t like the electric vehicles.
Very good, it’s not electric.
My TH-cam buddy “Occckid123” has 180k miles on his 19’ SL no issues.
Nice! 👏
@@NissanAltimaGuy im thinking about getting one but there’s too many CVT horror stories online about them.. yes they’re all older models however, but I’ve even seen some bad reviews for 2020 models and up
Just got me one 🎉
Awesome car! Congrats! 👏
for it's price point it's a hard car to beat ...
So disappointed the S model doesn't come with AppleCarPlay/Android Auto
I literally just bought this exact car Friday. 😂 A white S trim.
No AppleCarPlay/AndroidAuto right ?
I consider to buy the new 24' Nissan Altima.
They have made the s trim more basic, and I don’t like that, the only years of the s I would get is 2015-2020
2025 will be the last Altima. Sad. Extremely comfortable great driving car.
NICE !
Hell yeah the ultimate meme car.
So they don’t put the S on the car anymore… makes it look BASE BASIC! 🤔
Basic basic is King
Please put back on the chrome trim on trunk and rear bumper and grille trim . No chrome cheapens total car!!!
Is that the base model? Those big ass fat tires look horrible nothing like how the rs trim looks
Enjoy the 30 miles you can go before the transmission gives out
They are more reliable now and you just need to change the fluid every 30k miles.
SR mandatory.
Nissan Altima is the preferred car of the criminal where I live.
They do seem to appeal to a certain type.
The Altima is the most stolen new model car.
B.A.E...CRIMINALS 😂

FACTSS
@@F15C_Eagle Not even close. According to FBI statistics the top stolen sedans are Hondas. Hyundais and Toyotas are high up on the list, too.
Only if you lease it or own up to 100,000 miles
They won’t last longer than that
Hmmm, I have 2018 SR with 112,678 miles and NO issues and drives like new still to date! 🤷🏾
220K miles on my 2018 and running like new still.
I feel bad for this car. Its literally uber/rental car. Also, it has no defrost on mirrors, its crazy, I would not drive my family in that sedan.
keep your warranty IN EFFECT, the CV transmission WILL FAIL.
not sure how yours was but my last 3 Altima's never showed me an issue
Don't loose your money because of transmission CVT,I buy this car and I drove 2000 miles it's gone fake car
If that's true it would've been covered under warranty
Is a hard no for the B.A.E club 😅
🤦♂️
GP, I know it is not your fault, but I am so sick of you reviewing Foreign Cars! From now on I will only watch reviews of American Cars!!
Haha I'll see what I can do about that! 😆

Lol under 26k
Nissan got some of the hideous base model vehicles.
