Fyi this is Ricks wife :) I really did enjoy your review! I did not fall asleep .Nor start foaming at the mouth wanting to off myself over yet one more long long blabbing
I see people complaining about the lights, but Nissan is doing exactly what Toyota did with the RAV4, what Honda did with the CR-V, what Kia did with Optima, what Mazda did with the Mazda 6, what Hyundai did with the Sonata and what every automaker is doing: waiting until the mid-cycle refresh to bring out the nicer lights and minor tweaks. Chill out.
Mike, whenever I shop for a new car I always look (and hope) that you have a video for the car I want, so far you haven't disappointed, keep up the great work and thank you! :)
@@seansean681 i have had several Nissan 3rd Gen & 4th Gen Altima sedans and coupes some with high mileage some with low miles i never experienced a transmission problems in either one
It is ridiculous that 2.5 version 5.5 gen Altima has transmission issue but 3.5 version 5.5 gen has no. Maybe they use different transmission each model.
We got a new Altima SV Saturday and we love it. We had a SL Murano, it had the 360 camera and navigation, we will miss those features. But the mpg will make up for it!! Don’t really care for the “floating” display. And only other thing is the lack of LED tail lights, our 15 Sentra had them!!!
I’m surprised you didn’t mention the MPG because it’s pretty impressive...if your wondering it’s at 36:14...39 on highway! Wow that is amazing for my parents who commute around 100 miles a day! Good review, and overall good look as well! Thank you
Taylor Reynolds to me it looks like they just evolved the look of the refreshed 2016 version and threw a power train in. The Camry was like a complete drastic rebirth, looks are subjective so I’m not saying you’re wrong for feeling the Altima looks better.
Taylor Reynolds Toyota has had that mentality for decades and remained at the top consistently, but even Toyota knew it was time to change. With the latest complete redesign of the Camry and Avalon their sales only increased, so obviously as evidence shows if you can be better than what works it’ll pay off.
I'm mostly impressed with this redesign overall. They should have included LED lighting in those tail lights it would have set the rear end off like the front. Also I don't understand why we're also still putting incandescent bulbs in interiors. And to the commenters above regarding adding aftermarket leds inside...Yeah you can do that but theyre cheap and don't last. Where as my 2018 VW has real LED lights inside all the way through it makes a HUGE difference for it to be OEM and designed for the vehicle
I test drove this yesterday and it was very very smooth 😍😍🥵 I love the light on the side in the car when a cat passes by it lights up to let you know 😍😻
Always gonna love Nissan, their vehicles are very reliable. I have a 2006 Altima with 240,000 miles and is still running perfectly. If anything happens to that car I would definitely get this one!
Everyone is pissing and moaning about this Altima lacking LED bulbs in the taillights and interior. Can't those bulbs be swapped out for LED bulbs at your local auto parts store for about $50? I replaced the non-LED interior dome lights and incandescent backup lights in my 2016 Honda Civic for about $20. It took me less than 10 minutes to change the interior bulbs and about 30 minutes to change the backup bulbs and I'm not mechanically inclined at all. TH-camrs really love to find something to whine about.
For as much as this cost plus the competition this car is in, theres literally no excuse. We shouldn't have to go aftermarket if the car should came with them
@@chriswilliams3110 I see your point however I wouldn't let that relatively minor annoyance stop me from buying this car if I were truly interested in it.
Wow! Nissan upped their game! Nice review, Mike! Love the new uploads. Can you please see if you can get the 2019 Highlander Sport/SE...they gave it a new look for 2019 with lots of black accents.
I wonder what took car manufacturers so long to actually make their sedans good looking? SUVs, sports cars, and luxury brand sedans, have usually had decent designs.... but the non-luxury sedans like the altima, Camry, etc, have only started to look good in the recent years. It used to be that most cars that wasn't an SUV, sports car, or didn't have a german badge were pretty much a "grandma's car"
atleast honda took a chance, Nissan needs to take note from them in the design aspect and from toyota. the accord may not be everyone cup of tea, but toyota is killing the game with their sporty looking Camry and Lexus like Avalon. Nissan is wayyyy too conservative. and whats up with those tail lights, no leds? what is 2000?
Raafid Vlogs currently the economy is doing great and the gas is cheap, so everyone is moving to bigger things. cars need to appeal to the young crowd, and honda is trying to push something. it may not be pretty but it's different. I can guarantee you, no one is looking forward to another cvt from nissan. they are losing more and more people to the incentive toyota and radical honda design language. the accord may not be pretty, but it appeals to a crowd that wants something different. nissan has failed to catch anyone with a cheaper maxima. imo ofcourse.
Picking up mine this Saturday. Your video was very helpful and made me aware of some features I didn’t know about. My car has All Wheel Drive and from what I can tell from your video yours does not. I hope the hump in the rear seating area is not higher because of it. The AWD version of the car was not displayed in the showroom so I am not sure what to expect. Thanks again for the informational video....much appreciated!
Skimped on the LED lights, on backseat soft touch plastic, and on the trunk. Side collision indicators look primitive vs. the in-mirror indicators you see everywhere else. You would think they'd do better on the top level trim.
Still love the Altima but this new model looks outstanding saw few on website at dealers the prices are cheap. I hope with this being a new model it doesn't have problems as 2013 Altima did and the 2018 Accord which it looks better than most midsize cars.
Certainly a good looking vehicle but the actual pain is the neck can be experienced when you try to sell it after driving 50k miles coz the battery keeps dying. The cost depreciates like hell and you have to decide whether to sell it for 40% of your purchased price or to keep it until the wheels fall apart. The reliability rating would be a 3/5.
I love the redesign but it's unfortunate they didn't utilize the headlights casing space. They could have done something really cool with what's there.
@@JulezWinnfield We shouldn't even have to go aftermarket. I have no problem changing to LED's in my 08 accord since LED's were not even a common thing back then but a 2019 car? Only new cars i would understand won't come with led are subcompact cars and few compact car.
I can never understand the remote trunk opener if the trunk doesn’t lift all the way. If my hands are full I still have to come and then lift the trunk. I could just open the trunk manually then. This aggregates me so much! It doesn’t have to be a power trunk but I’m sure there could be a spring mechanism to lift the trunk all the way.
This new Altima looks nice (much better looking than the previous model).... But the rear should have had LED tail lights & not orange (makes it look a lil dated)
The center display screen, which is in the middle of the dashboard and sits above all other instrumentation clusters, does NOT pop-up - it is immovable / fixed in place.
@@MikesCarInfo Unfortunately, this would simply become another wear-item that would break and cause more trips to the dealership. Although the WOW factor would be huge for a pop-up unit, making the tablet-style infotainment system immovable was the best ergonomic option, in my opinion.
VERY impressed with the updated styling, sleek sporty look!!! The old style was getting old. However, things I dont like are no exterior L.E.D lighting? It runs very loud, manual prop rod for the hood. The leather looks creased and doesnt look right...and way over priced. But keep it up Nissan, headed in the right direction.

I almost fell off my seat when the pointer appeared. Lmao!!!
It's so cute! Lol
I did too 🤣
Lmao!
Same lmao
Looks cool. Hopefully their transmission can make it to 100,000 without issues this time.
Edgar Sandoval the transmission reliability has always kept me away from buying an Altima.
Drive mine daily 90k no CVT issues...yet.

I will buy this used 2019 Nissan Altima one day as my daily vehicle and show it to all of my friend's how good this vehicle usually is

When I go to purchaced vehicle I'm going to whip a yellow hand out and start pointing prices out
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Great review , I just purchased this car Saturday , thanks . P.s. I'm also from south carolina
Very nice! How do you like your car 1 year later?
As always Mike your reviews are on point 👌. I watch all your reviews, best on TH-cam.

Ankush i think they could've done better on the mpg compared to the old 1.
occckid123 true, but I still think it’s worth mentioning! Compared to other competitors
Ankush it is a good number. This engine should be in the sentra. The sentra turbo gets the same hp but much less mpg
I honestly prefer this Altima than the Accord or Camry. Looks more sophisticated. 😍
Ordered mine a week ago. Red with same interior. Can't wait to get it!
You are the man to come to when looking for a brand new car !
Much love ❤️
I love it! In my opinion it’s better than the new Accord and Camry. :)

Omg I LOVE the yellow pointer hand!
😩🤣 When that yellow finger popped out 💀🥀
Nice thorough review. Hopefully the property line dispute between driver and passenger does not escalate out of control! 🤣
At the end of the day, it’s a Altima. A great loaner car.
Nice Job man, just Nissan Altima doesn't deserve that much effort
Looks nice put a regular transmission and I will take it
I died laughing at the yellow pointer😂😂😂 and more of all if you already know the car and you watching this on mute...the whole video will crack you up
the best thing about that hand on a stick is that we can still see your real hand moving it around lol

Nice video. Bought a Platinum yesterday, the lack of led taillights wasn't a concern. It seems to be a well put together car for the price.
Got my Platinum about the same time. I was not sure of the CVT but I love it. Awesome fuel mileage too.
Glenn Stiller Mine also. Let’s hope they’ve learn something about cvt longevity with all the previous troubles they’ve had.
You can get a base model Maxima with 3.5 v6 for.less than a vc turbo 4cyl Altima.
But that VC turbo Altima would probably dust that 3.5 Maxima see your point on about the pricing tho kinda steep
Another good looking car!! Honda needs to takes notes with their hideous Accord😇
PLATINUM Honda’s rims are also super ugly
I agree 100%

Not that in altima

I'ma get mine this Friday
Hey Mike do you think this car is better than the Honda Accord?
Why some of the New Altima sometimes showing only 140 MPH and some of them 160 and 180 top speed.?!
@Francisci Rivera that's because the turbo model is the only model that has 180 on the dash and all the regular 2.5 models have 140 on the dash
I love the redesign but it's unfortunate they didn't utilize the headlights casing space. They could have done something really cool with what's there.
ezar howard wasted space
Honda gives you more for less
AGREED 💯
Its on pending for the upcoming models !! They dont put everything in the redesign immediately
“Just underneath that mirror 👉 right in there you’ll find the side cameras”
Nissan really disappointed me with no rear LED taillights but great styling
Can't the halogen taillight bulbs be replaced with aftermarket LED bulbs? If so, what's the big deal?
@@JulezWinnfield
Should have been standard . Hell the honda civic Lx had led taillights. Why cant this
Exactly, this car is a 2019 and it's too expensive to be rolling out of production with incandescent lighting...
Gio S6 exactly my point

We shouldn't even have to go aftermarket. I have no problem changing to LED's in my 08 accord since LED's were not even a common thing back then but a 2019 car? Only new cars i would understand won't come with led are subcompact cars and few compact car.

Thats what you should do most CVTs dont have ATF cooler so the fluid gets dirty and overheated which messes up CVTS.

0:48 there is a pink baloon...
Still no change in a trunk hinges, right?
Nissan should put that infotainment system in Infiniti
