It's difficult to come by a superior meaning of "meat and potatoes model" than the Nissan Altima. A great many U.S. vehicle purchasers have brought Altimas back home just on the grounds that they need reasonable, economical, solid, agreeable transportation, and the Altima hits each objective.
The 188-hp base motor is entirely sufficient and gets up to 39 mpg on the expressway. The discretionary turbocharged, variable-pressure four-chamber motor puts out to 248 pull on premium fuel nevertheless returns 34 mpg on the interstate.
All-wheel drive is accessible. There's an extensive lodge, happy with seating, a decent measured infotainment screen, a lot of room for freight, and a strong rundown of standard security highlights. Simply expect nothing moving toward the sort of driving person that motivates enthusiasm.
The constantly factor programmed transmission (CVT) in each Altima conveys brilliant efficiency at the expense of energetic speed increase and essentialness. However, sharp lines and gaudy discretionary wheels on the ongoing model spruce up the vehicle's unobtrusive yearnings rather well.
What's New for 2024?
After an unobtrusive restyle and some gear redesigns for 2023, the 2024 Nissan Altima makes one minor computerized change. NissanConnect Administrations, which empowers highlights like remote locking, far off motor turning over, and crisis calling, is incorporated with a three-year preliminary rather than a six-month preliminary. Rumors from far and wide suggest that the Altima and its younger sibling, the subcompact Versa will just keep close by for several years.
Pricing and Which One to Buy
The cost of the 2024 Nissan Altima begins at $27,140 and goes up to $36,840 relying upon the trim and choices.
We like the SR for its little gesture toward restorative and dynamic improvement. This trim is more enjoyable to drive thanks to an all the more tightly tuned suspension responsible for bigger, 19-inch wheels. A similar haggle combo on a 2019 Altima SL we tried without the sportier suspension beat the cornering grasp of a BMW 330i xDrive.
Solace highlights move forward too, with the SR coming norm with an eight-way power driver's seat, remote Apple CarPlay, wired Android Auto, an overhauled computerized measure bunch, a cowhide wrapped controlling wheel, and that's just the beginning. We'd likewise spring for the $2,890 Premium bundle, its abundance including a sliding moonroof, warmed cowhide seats, WiFi area of interest capacity, and the bigger 12.3-inch infotainment screen. The SR is one of the three center trims that can be optioned with all-wheel drive for $1,500, an element not accessible on the base S and top-rack SR VC-Super.
Engine, Transmission, and Performance
Each Altima save the SR VC-Super accompanies a 2.5-liter four-chamber motor making 188 drive and 180 pound-feet of force. The turbocharged 2.0-liter four-chamber in the reach clincher makes 248 ponies while drinking premium gas. Each Altima shifts through a constantly factor programmed transmission (CVT). The CVT denies the fun of utilizing the oar shifters on prepared manages, yet this isn't the sort of vehicle one ought to push that hard, in any case. The Altima scores "Fine" on practically the entirety of its dynamic tests. Controlling is exact for the section, slowing down is expeditious and straight.
The 2.5-liter four-chamber capitulates to raucous motor commotion when requested to convey more than unsurprising, mediocre speed increase. A comfortable ride on the 16-or 17-inch wheels keeps a cool head over street flaws and flimsy asphalt. The large portion of additional power in the VC-Super motor makes the Altima altogether faster. In any case, even with the sportiest suspension, the Altima is never as enjoyable to drive as the less-strong Accord, and the 19-inch wheels that add grasp on twisty streets likewise decrease the ride quality.
0-60 MPH Times
With the 2.5-liter four-chamber and all-wheel drive, the Altima hit 60 mph in 7.6 seconds in our testing. With the turbocharged 2.0-liter and front-wheel drive, the Altima is far speedier, hitting 60 mph in 5.9 seconds.
Fuel Economy and Real-World MPG
The Altima has long made grand mileage part of its enticement for vehicle customers, the car doing as such without falling back on a half breed or module crossover powertrain. In standard front-wheel drive design, the base 2.5-liter four-chamber motor can get an EPA-assessed 27 mpg city and 39 thruway in the S and SV manages.
With all-wheel drive, those EPA gauges drop to 26 mpg city and 36 mpg on the expressway. The turbocharged 2.0-liter gets an EPA-assessed 25 mpg city and 34 mpg on the interstate. On our 75-mph roadway mileage course part of our broad testing routine the all-wheel-drive Altima accomplished 35 mpg; the VC-Super rendition recorded an outstanding 37 mpg. For more data about the Altima's mileage, visit the EPA's site.
Interior, Comfort, and Cargo
The main low spots inside and they're not so low seem where the Altima claims to be more than it is. The level lined controlling haggle carbon fiber inside trim on our SV analyzer, for example, were excessive for a vehicle with unobtrusive power, a CVT, no oar shifters, and no drive modes. Same for the forceful lumbar help on the generally welcoming front seats. The lodge is generally just as agreeable and pleasant as the driving experience. Easy to understand switchgear dabs the clear dashboard. Inside materials shift among trim levels, however there are no mistake.
That is a victory thinking about how frequently hard plastics in certain vehicles transform into sensitive areas for the eyes and the appendages, and even extravagance producers periodically misunderstand them. There's fair capacity front and center, with tight, though profound, entryway pockets and a helpful plate on the mid control area.
Huge back seats give a lot of legroom. Sadly, the Nissan's back seats don't crease totally level and they should be delivered involving handles in the storage compartment, which is badly designed. We fit six portable suitcases in the Altima's trunk and 17 sacks absolute with the back seats collapsed. These numbers matched those of the Toyota Camry we tried, yet both the Altima and Camry missed the mark concerning the Understanding's 19 packs.
