The Altima is getting some BIG changes for 2023 from Nissan. On the outside you will discover 19in wheels, new front fascia and grill. On the inside there are some new materials and a massive 12.3in infotainment screen. Under the hood is a 2.5L inline-4 that produces 188HP. Is the NEW 2023 Nissan Altima a BETTER sedan to BUY than a Toyota Camry?

Personally, I like the Altima. I know a lot of people complain about Nissan’s CVT being unreliable but my wife’s Altima has almost 300k miles with the original CVT. I know it’ll be time for a new car but I think that’s impressive and definitely a testament to Nissan’s reliability if you take car of the vehicle.

For all those yowling about the CVT... in normal daily driving, it does just fine and it returns stellam mpg. I have a 2015 Altima with almost 203,000 miles on it - bought it new in July 2015 - and the CVT has been flawless. I change the CVT fluid every 50k miles and have always been a maintenance maven. The only unscheduled repair I've ever had was to replace the front right axle. I still get almost 38 MPG on the highway and 30 mpg combined city / highway. On long trips, a full tank of gas will take me almost 700 miles and that's with me averaging between 70-80 mph. Now, I wish I could get the Altima SR with a proper manual transmission. That would be an instant sale.

@russellparr9252 Жыл бұрын

Love the looks, and that color is fire! That being said, I won't buy another Nissan until they dump the CVT. Give me a standard auto, or better yet a manual, and I'll think about it. Also, the VC turbo is not available in AWD, and that's a shame.

Only issue has been leaking..clogged drain from moonroof many times and water leaks in w bad rain and water got in doors. Guess the weatherproofing strips needs to be replaced.

It's nice enough. Priced ok. Some things I really like and some I don't. Great looking car. I would get this B4 getting a SUV or EV. Glad to see Nissan trying to bring good cars to market. Competition among manufacturers is good for the consumers. The V6 Camry is probably on its last year like the 2.0T is gone in the Accord. The VC turbo might be the best choice in 24.

It is a great looking car. If this had a normal Trans with the 240hp, I'd get this. As of now, a K5 or G70 is my next option. Specifically because of Honda screwing up the Accord & the discontinuation of the Stinger. In addition, the Altima will NEVER get 40 large from me.

I rented a Camry and a 2023 Altima back to back and drove them on the same roads. Somehow, the Altima has more personality, if you can call it that. I found the Altima's steering and ride to be about perfect on real California roads, and I beat the Camry's fuel economy by 6 mpg.

The Altima is more of a "drivers" vehicle than the bland Camry. That said, the Camry also offers a hybrid, which is a tad quicker than the regular four banger AND is has a much better fuel economy. In this day and age with gas prices fluctuating so much, if you are not ready for EV (and I would not recommend and EV at this moment), hybrid is a logical choice. My Camry hybrid gives me more than 50 mpg's and I don't care what the price of petrol is...I really don't. It's a minuscule part of my budget. Nissan's CVT is poor and they have no hybrid. Test drive the Camry as well as the new Accord hybrid and you will be utterly surprised that these cars aren't as "impersonal" as you think. A test drive always makes you an experience richer...

ive noticed a few car manufacturers trying to create their own version of the 19" accord sport wheels

Thinking this might be my first new car purchase. I currently have 2 Altimas. 264k miles on my 2006. Drive it daily.

The Altima looks better this time around and is generally an okay car, but with the existence of the Accord and Camry I can't think of a single reason to buy this over the competition. I had to drive one of these recently as a rental and I could not stand how it drove. The CVT was my biggest complaint but the steering felt pretty terrible as well.

@@johnfranklin5277 Understood but it's generally regarded as a better car to buy for quality and features than a comparable Nissan. Also reliability.

Fantastic looking car. Glad Nissan is shaking up their lineup. THIS is where the 11gen Accord should have gone. Also, you've zonk'd so many fake vents (rightfully so!), you'd think the manufacturers would have listened by now.

This Altima was just a small refresh. Literally all they did was change up the front grill, removed the fog lights, and added a larger infotainment screen. Other than that, this is the same design from 2019.
