I rented a car on my most recent trip to visit friends in Arizona and the Altima was what I got. I didn’t even know a sports driving mode was ever a thing on these. Now I wish I could have known that to experience it first hand. Maybe it’s weak and a poor excuse for a sports mode? My actual car is a 2009 Lexus IS250. Not the fastest car either but when sports mode is activated it’s a zippy car. Paddle shifters are cool too.

There's nothing wrong with the sport mode. Do you know what it does? It downshifts for you when braking hard and holds the fake ratios much longer like a regular sport mode.

@@petrolectric just because you didn't drive the car hard enough to notice a difference doesn't mean it doesn't do anything. It does. I mean it doesn't change suspension or steering but it definitely changes what the transmission drives if you double click the sport mode while flooring it at the same time when you initial put your foot on the pedal the car will downshift much more sharply and give you the quicker revs you need but you wouldn't know that.

All trims do except the base model "S". Instead of Apple CarPlay, the base model has something called Siri Eyes Free, which can do everything that CarPlay can do (using voice commands) except put your phone on the screen. So, basically the only difference is that when navigating, you have to use your phone as the navigation screen, but you still have the siri voice telling you when to turn through the car speakers.

The car is definitely not slow. If you’ve driven a base corolla, Sentra or other compact sedan those are slow. The 2.5 Altima is actually decently fast and if you are a regular person not used to driving bmws or Porsches you should have no problem at all with the power.
