Is the 2021 Nissan Altima SR the better sedan to buy than an Accord?

- The Nissan Altima SR has something the Honda Accord doesn't have, but does that give it an advantage? On the outside you will find a V-motion grill, unique wheels, and trim. On the inside there is plenty of room for your passengers, zero gravity seats, and Nissan safety features. Under the hood is a 2.0L VC turbocharged engine that produces 236HP & CVT transmission with power getting to the ground through AWD. Is the 2021 Nissan Altima SR the better sedan to buy than an Accord?

Raiti is so entertaining he gets me to watch a 20 minute video of a car I have no interest in at all 😂
Me too Fassel
No kidding!!!
Exactly he has an amazing gift 😂
The love his Twinkie world 😋
I have a 2021 SR, I love it and is only the 2.5 engine the CVT feels great I think Nissan has done great work on this car.
a year later how is it holding up? debating on purchasing...
@@jaydencampbell334 don’t buy it. Backup camera sucks and the emergency braking system creates more problems than it solves. I had an ‘06 Altima and this 2021 runs pretty much the same. I HATE it
@@russiaprivjet I ended up avoiding and getting a 2023 Corolla. Feels much nicer than the altimas I test drive and much better features. Hopefully it holds up for as many years as other Toyotas last
I just got mines today. I was nervous but after this and a lot of researching I’m happy!
Just got one. I like the feel of how it drives. Mileage is good. Main gripes are the low quality backup cam and touchscreen display/software. No lighting for example, in the cup holders, small storage alongside doors.
Practical, fair, honest, real and fun reviews. That's the only reason I come here. Thank you!
Damn I started watching Raiti at 40k subs. Amazing seeing the substantial growth since then 👌🏽
I appreciate it Steven! Thanks for being on the journey with me!
He has easily become my favorite reviewer and mature review channel. Lori always does a professional job too! I’d like to see her do more cameos
I’ve been here since 90K. Absolutely mind blowing how much this channel has grown since then.
I almost didn’t look at the Altima SR 2.0t bc of the reviews on TH-cam. Then I went and drove it. It’s awesome. The speed , ride, and nimbleness is great along with the looks. You put on the radio and drive, it’s such a fun car! I bought it and love it. At least drive it b4 listening to the 50 TH-camrs that just repeat each others reviews. You won’t regret it.
I drove it. It shook a little soon as tried speeding up the car. Im going to go test drive it again though. Hopefully it won’t be the same
I always appreciate your videos. Got a chill vibe, very informational, and not too biased. Thank you always!
Joe, I love the buildup before you give the price! Look forward to it every time!
At this point Hostess needs to sponsor your reviews! You always make them fun and informational. Thanks.
Absolutely love how you review the avg consumer cars. Loving the channel
Not an Accord, but; after all the bashing on CVT's, pleasantly surprised with the action of this one. What about those of us who've learned to adapt and are happy with a 6-7" display? It gets the job done lol. Really loving the colour on this one. Thank you Lori for all your work, bringing us all the great leg work for these shots!
We appreciate you Adam! Thanks for being so supportive!
It’s really awesome to see how fast the Raiti’s rides channel is growing. 450k here we come!
I'm just here for all the comments about Nissan's CVT's lol

Nissan quality for you.
Some CVTs are alright, like Subaru's chain driven CVT. They're not the greatest, but at least they use a pull chain, not a push belt like on the JATCOs that Nissan uses.
Pretty nice vehicle. I'd still go Mazda but these look pretty well assembled. Even the K5 is quite compelling now especially with the upgrades from past. Thanks as always Joe
Nissan should've put their excellent 7 speed automatic into this thing.
You are so very right!
Nahh they need Toyotas 8 speed automatic and or Hondas 10 speed
@@tougeruzbay
If fuel economy and low end torque was high on the table, Toyota's 8 speed would make sense, but for quick acceleration Nissan's 7 speed is king. You should watch a few Nissan Armada acceleration runs. They're very impressive.
@@Lucky8s but they interior sucks and depreciate no good and no one. Really buys those it’s like putting interior from a 2007 infiniti and slap into it 2019 wtf is that lol. What rip off lol
Their 7 speed automatic was developed for a rear wheel drive platform.
I just purchase one of this I’m loving it really smooth and comfortable
I just bought mine last month brand new 2021 SR with premium package and I love it
Come for the Twinkie references, and stay for the car review.
…or the reverse!
I got mine already it's smooth drive and feels good
Still got it?
I would also buy a shirt that said "turbocharged goodness" on it! IDK why but that is hilarious. Great job as always, Lori. ;)
Got mine on Sunday, loving it.....not as much HP as my 2015 malibu ltz turbo had but it has acceptable power and rides really nice
Using my favorite childhood snack as a method for showing size? Raiti, congratulations, you just earned a sub!
Thanks Nick for your awesome support and joining the Raiti's Rides family!
Your videos make my day so much
I am so glad that I can share them with you! Thanks for being so supportive!
Drove an Altima SR from Oklahoma to California. Was an excellent road trip car - great seats, and awesome fuel economy. I probably wouldn't own one but was a great rental!
I needed to know how good is it on long trips and the coming back part
I have 2020 accord sport... and love it. Thinking of getting rid of my truck for a sedan , so thanks for all this videos, trying to compare all options.
Nice to have choices for sure!
For anyone asking the VC-Turbo only comes FWD on the SR Trim, you can get AWD as an option but go to the standard 2.5 non turbo engine. He might be reading the press release that just puts pressure on the fact that you can get AWD on every trim but S. No more turbo platinum for 2021
This will be my dream car!! Great job Joe.
Dream big man!
Love full reviews found another channel like Doug's
I heard you reading of the little cheat sheet you had about the horsepower and MPG .. lol
Love your vids Joe! ON THROTTLE !! Ohh yea!!
Great Job on this Review Joe and Lori 🙏🙏Blessed
They really improved the grill the past couple of years
You should see the Murano grill
Totally agree!
@@ATH-camChannelwithNoName good call!
grille*
@@tinhinnh haha thank you, grill and grille don’t mean the same thing
My sister just purchased a red 21 SR (I drive 19 Accord EXL). The Altima drives so smooth 😩 (the CVT is smoother than my Accords)
Thanks for sharing that great ownership input!
cool
Yeah, for a while until it breaks down
@@octane8872 haha funny considering my brother’s (my mom’s old car) 08 Nissan Altima has over 200k miles and is still rolling! So don’t speak on other Nissan because you’re didn’t last or it’s something you heard!
@@ItsChrisWorld i believe any nissan besides a few exceptions like the titan, and a few others started having trouble 2009 and up. Everyone knows new nissans are booty, the transmissions are terrible.
Can't wait to drive the new Altima at Enterprise car rental.
LOL
Just order a uber
That is the only way I would drive this car, as a rental
@@MyCatIsSmarter this nissan of old use to be good. But ever since they start using those terrible JATCO cvt they went downhill . Nissan today is simply not worth headache .
😂😂😂
Never been a Nissan guy but I really like how this looks!
I am glad that I can share it with you!
Altima tried to be a challenger in that category. Loving the twinkies. Queen of the camera, you are wonderful.
I drove several rental 2021 Altimas for over 5000 miles. Apparently they have done some programming because even though it has a VCT is feels like it shifts like a regular Auto trans. The tack revs up and then drops down like it is shifting gears. Very different from the 2011 I had and my wife's 2015 Altima. The 2015 we get about 34.4 miles/gallon. The rental 2021 Atimas I drove got between 38 and 43 mpg. The 2021 had good power and rode and handles nicely. The car wanted to go 85-90 on the highway and I had to be careful to keep the speed down. I am 6'2" and overweight and the seat is comfortable. I had no problems driving 10-14 hours a day . I like the fully auto seat instead of the old hydraulic lift they used to use. I drove two different models and they both acted the same. A decent car.
Altimas are underrated. I enjoy the heck out of my 16 Altima SR
Like how you review vehicles, a natural!
I love it my bro keep up the work and I love the video 💯
Nice review. I was wondering about Nissans nowadays….. anyway…. I noticed that not only are you a car enthusiast but a candy and twinkie enthusiast as well👍🏼☺️
Awesome work joe
I drove one and I loved it! It has lane assistance! I had never seen that within a car before. I love the carbon fiber!!!! It's so sporty looking! 😃 I wanted one until my boyfriend said, not that turbo engine you don't 😒 ! Lol.
I actually have the car and the mother effer is smooth!! The crying and complaining about the cvt doesn't bother me. If it stops running before I pay it off (which I doubt), then I'll complain!!
Hey Joe... I didn't think the All Wheel Drive could be paired with the Turbo 2.0. From what I've read, you can only get the AWD with the base 2.5 NA motor.
Love this guys reviews on vehicles
Thanks Joseph for letting me bring it to you.
Nissan + CVT = A $34,000 ZONK. This is the midsize car you only get on a lease, and only if every other car brand has turned your credit down first.
No that’s what pos Kia and Hyundai are for
@@kevinm2025 The numbers i.e. facts don’t support you buddy.
@@kevinm2025 exactly Kia and Hyundai are garbage
@@chrisrefaei Have you driven a 2020 Optima?
Huge facts.
My dream car is the 2021 Honda Accord Sport 2.0T trim but I recently just fell in love with the Altima’s which is a better car???
Hi watch your your TH-cam video all the time and I have a question. I am torn between getting a Honda or Nissan. If you was to pick what one would you go with. Thank you.
I’m gonna lose my marbles if he ever gets sponsored by Twinkies 😂😂😂😂
Underrated comment 😂😂
😆😆
Nice review... I'm having the new Nissan Almera turbo 1.0. The body is same with the Altima but I will say the Altima interior is more awesome
People hate yet Nissan is a strong solid sedan especially now with AWD and a first commercially produced vc turbo engine you get best of both worlds if people were just stop being cheap and lazy and keep up with regular maintenance your car will be fine our family are Nissan addicts we’ve own just about every mode From 1997,-2020 Altima,maxima,armada,pathfinder,370 z ,300,sentra, our 2008 Altima has 400 K miles and still a daily driver with zero engine problems since purchase 13 years ago not one vehicle has had any issues sure some may have had some recalls but the best part is the dealer takes them in and fixes them for free nothing to crazy though mostly from hood latch or software update. Fact is if you want a luxury sports car you go with Lexus or Mercedes. If you want a fast every driver with awd sedan you get a Nissan Altima sr. Mpg is amazing as wel!
Thanks for sharing that great input and perspective Jose!
I got a lifetime warranty on my transmission and engine so I’m chillin lol. It’s a 2019
Same lol
Joe, for 2021 did they make the SR Altima available with the turbo and all wheel drive? Before 21 you had to get one or the other couldn't get a turbo and all wheel drive, if I'm not mistaken.
I love his vids man
My employer's motor pool has about eighteen Altima base model units from 2019 through 2021. I routinely drive them hundreds of miles on business. They have fixed the CVT......It works very well. These cars accelerate fast from a stoplight, have great brakes, ride smoothly, handle well, and are very user-friendly. They have been reliable for us......We auction them off at about 50K miles.
Catching up on the weekend reviews here Joe!!! Nissan tryna bring the business with this updated Altima here. That CVT is gonna be its achilles heel though. Can't get past that, especially with how much they wanna charge for it.

Good review & great Nissan.
I have the 2020 Nissan Altima SL AWD. Loving it so far. I did try the KIA K5 but Altima was a winner for me. Stinger required me to dish out more cash, so from all perspective, it was hard to not go for Altima.
You have any problems with the cvt ? Looking at a few 2020 altimas right now so just curious .....
@@kevinmorse3738 No.
If you don’t drive hard like most young drivers u will not have no trouble with your CVT
Nice that you now have actual Twinkies! I see more snacks in future videos. lol
I'm driving this. It's dope, sport mode dope as well. Very fast. I worked at a Honda dealer for awhile. This Altima is my favorite car that I've ever driven. I love Honda but this car beats all the Honda Car's I've driven. I drove everything on the lot lol. Just my opinion tho.
I wished others would comment based on personal experience, rather than echoing dated statements.
All new mid size sedans will hit 100k
Only Toyota and Hondas can go well beyond that
Your Altima, due to the CVT will start turning into a money pit.. CVT
@@chuckfan1 I didn't spend a dime on an 07 altima other than oil and it got me to 150k before I got a new one. Not worried about your armchair car knowledge.
@@couching5000 dude.... didn't say it was ALL , its a proven fact, Hondas Toyotas , for the MOST part have a greater chance of hitting those high mileage numbers. Just do any kind of internet search. Yeah, some Altimas Kias etc, will hit that , of course. As for "armchair" knowledge... I embrace your evaluation, but you have no idea on my background, years in the business etc.... 30+ years in the automotive repair industry, and on the board of directors of a major industry task team that researches new products, analysis, and actual on the road testing. Relax.. was just an opinion numbnuts.
Dont get all worked up by a comment on social media. Hop in your chick magnet Altima, drive to your job fixing slurpee machines at 7-11 and chill
@@chuckfan1 relax
This car is a winner! Great combination of power, 4wd, design, mileage, room, price, and Twinkies space.
Nice review, but I’m not sure why the Legacy and Camry AWD direct competitors didn’t rate a mention. I like the styling with the clamshell hood and nice lines, the engine makes very impressive power/liter (almost 125) and everyone has nice things to say about the seats. From there though there aren’t many other positives and it doesn’t seem like a great value mid 30s. If I needed AWD I’d lean towards the admittedly boring Legacy which abandons sporty pretense for more quiet and luxury. If I didn’t need awd, I’d probably be looking at a v6 or hybrid Camry.
One More thing, I own a few Honda/Acura products currently including the 2020 Accord 2.0T and will be getting more products soon, but I love good cars and always liked the Altima I had a 2004 SE-R on a trip that normally takes 71/2 hrs and did it in 4hrs 23 minutes in 2005... while I don't drive like that most times anymore, I feel I could do it in around 3.5 hrs with my 2020 Accord 2.0... mainly because cars improved , but also the confidence from driving dynamics of the Accord...
You are getting close from 500k subscribers
So good in reviews!!
I prefer the Honda, but this is a great review joe!! Thank you!! - and all wheel drive is pretty awesome!!
Thanks for letting me share it with you!
New Subbie Joe I just love your personality and especially to comments on the Twinkies lol 😂
I love you too bro
Wow, what a beautiful looking car, and with great equipment a 4 cylinder turbo with 4WD. Much better looking than everything else in its segment too. The moderate pricing and all these features should make it a great seller. I hope the CVT holds up as they are known to the problem with Nissan vehicles. The 240 HP/270 lbft tells me the engine is severely limited in boost, and that those who wish to turn the wick up will easily achieve in excess of 300 HP with no difficulty. The CC rating was not mentioned, and I wish I knew more about the variable compression of the turbo too.
A lot of your torque can be worked out with transmission manipulation when "racing" I once beat a crotch rocket from a stop light with a Harley Heritage Softail because of clutchwork. Were they surprised lol So was my husband haha.
Hey Raiti, help. Would you buy a 2021 Altima SR or 2021 Mazda 3 Hatchback Preferred?
Do you think the Accord, Sonata, etc. will add optional 4WD when they refresh their models?
No ventilated seats or passenger power seats at $34K is disappointing. The Sonata has those things at a lower price point.
Thanks again to you and your wife and team. You obviously have driven all these cars and can give insight, but just we are all different example male or female, 3'11" adults to 7'3" etc so are vehicles...no such thing as perfect car for everyone like in any area of lives. I like the information given, but if you like Honda buy Honda, if you like Nissan but Nissan, if you like Audi...etc companies have different philosophy of designers which gives consumers choices. So many reviewers say things like...it's not like.... that should be a good thing. It's ok some reviewers don't like things on a vehicle be reviewed, but the target market is customers that are new drivers, older, middle aged, tall, short, fat to skinny, rich to poor, car enthusiast to just a means from point a to be, etc. We need more objective review from all reviewers and to stop coping notes. Just like your wife enjoys being with you and not with another man for pleasure, that's how myself and millions of customers feel about our Honda products.
Looks good but the CVT has got to go. I’d go with the Accord. Thanks Joe and camera queen Lori! 👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸
Good call Larry!
Accord has a cvt too with the base engine
Not saying it’s bad but incase you didn’t know
@@tay9931 Yep, I knew.
Honda has a more reliable CVT than Nissan from a different manufacturer.
You sure make it tough figuring what would be the right choice, besides the “Dream Machines”! As even if I got one of those Power Monsters, the Cost of Care is where it really hits the ‘Ol Wallet! A great care like this actually works really well here in the Boise Idaho area, but was wondering, when you have a sec.. Not too likely as you are a busy couple, but was wondering........ Any news on the RAV4 Prime ever becoming more available. Battery supply I guess..? Anyhow, thought I’d ask as you might see this.. If not, No worries! Best Auto Reviewer out there.! Take care, Peace and Health to all.......! J
What you guys do with the Twinkies after the car test? Asking for a friend.
Can you do a comparison between the Altima and accord and tell us which is better pls ? I’m looking to buy a car soon and I can’t decide between both of them. Thank you.
Hey Joe,
Could you do a review of the 2021 Hyundai Tuscon?
“Most people will be happy with 8” but there are those that want more”. Hahahaha
Yeah, I caught that, too! 😄
Has a lot of great features, but just can’t let go of all those zonks. Really want to see what they do with the redesign. YES lol actual Twinkie storage measurements!
I almost bought a 2019 sr but went with a 2020 Hyundai sonata limited. Very happy I did
Steve at Nissan is good people! Great guy.
does that dash say.. 180😳 I just had the 19’ altima.. looking for a new one now, and i like the food references 😂
Joe, please invest in a lift a-la SavageGeese so that you can impart your knowledge of the automobile undercarriage to your viewers like you do the body and exterior currently in your reviews. You would have the best (by far) auto review channel on the internet. Thanks!
I am driving 2016 Nissan Altima. I am always in love with that. Don't know why people complain too much on CVT. A common man like me enjoy smooth ride, fuel efficiency which assured in Altima.
It's the reliability. The worry about them crapping out way too early in the car's lifetime.
vc-turbo is not available on the AWD models. Only on front wheel drive models due to the sport tuned front suspension.
I don’t need 8” but my wife does so I bought a VW Atlas for her and she couldn’t be happier. I drive a VW Passat, so I only have 6”....works for me!
I'm at 63,000 on my 2019 sentra, no issues with my cvt. Can't even hear it running. Regular maintenance, bought it with 6 milies.
you should review the Altima Nismo Joe!
How are you Joe? CVT Zonk of the day.
For those whom "Zonk" CVT, they haven't driving on lately. CVT give good gas mileage and work great. I own a 2015 Accord with CVT and I'm happy with it. Also, own a Subaru Impreza with CVT and it's find as well. No longer I can feel the jerkiness of a traditional automatic.
I own the 2019 SR Orange. I like the way it runs very smooth. Spacious .
Do you experience strong wind noise?
Not at all. Inside is quiet. The only thing I dislike is that the rear doesn’t have vents. Only on the floor area
@@thembp4sho I do sometimes. On my SR vc turbo. That's prob this redesign Altima's are way on the floor. Also the wheel vibrates sometimes. I feel like I'm about to die. Geezus I've thrown 33k for nun.
The Shiny Orange color on the Altimas are nice. I have shiny black looks means
I really don't understand the hate on the cvt. My altima has 210,000 miles and runs and drives great. I do change the transmission fluid every 40,000 miles.
What year is your Altima?
@@henryf6539 2008 coupe. With the 3.5 litre engine. It's been a fantastic little car no major problems whatsoever. Just the regular maintenance like brakes, oil changes, tires and windshield wipers.
i had a altima 2012 and loved it but the transmission after 150k left me shaken.. hope they fixed the cvt or improved
Yes, the new alloy wheel is a welcome. The currently one looks so so...Give this Altima SR AWD the turbo model then the rest of the Accord, Hyundai, Toyota a runs for their money for sure.
Just a heads up, if it is a VC Turbo then it does NOT have AWD. It's one or the other
Not gonna lie, I was expecting to see a shit ton of twinkies when he opened the trunk lol.
He honestly make the best car review videos! But the "Jokes" make it hard to watch 🤣 less jokes more reviews
Hey Joe you made me hangry looking at those twinkies😁
Hey will you get early access to the 2022 Honda civic
My first car was a ‘10 Altima coupe. Wish they made fun cars with manuals /:
I love mine it’s a 2019 I have the Orange one none turbo interior is the best I ever had in a car handles like it’s on rails. I have looked at other cars in it’s class and for the price Nissan sr is the way to go amazing car. I will warn you it gets boring to drive. But I like MT cars but overall nice car!
At the 13 minute mark, when you were in the back seat, you should mention that you can actually access the trunk from the back seat.
