This is unreal. I literally searched "TheTopher nissan altima 2024" LAST NIGHT and you uploaded this today. I'm speechless

Nothing is faster on the highway than an Altima with an expired license tag, hanging front bumper, temporary spare tire and no insurance

Notice to the people whining about the turn signal volume. During an oil change at a Nissan dealer I asked if the volume could be lowered. Service tech said “sure we can place a 3M noise dampening pad where the noise comes out of”. I said okay, and turn signal noise was reduced by 50%! So there you go, improvise instead of whining people😂

Perfect rental car. I got one for 5 days. Lots of driving. Only had to fill the tank while returning. Outstanding economy for a gas car. The CVT will always be unnerving for someone used to traditional shifts. But I also noticed that the engine RPM was actually below 2k even while cruising at 80. (no wonder it achieves the fuel economy that it does)

The Topher has finally diagnosed what is causing Altima drivers to slowly go crazy. That loud turn signal.🤣🤣🤣

It's way more fun when you are weaving in and out of traffic at 120mph in your baby mama's Altima while she's at work.

I rented an Altima with the turbo engine it was surprisingly sporty and nice to drive I kinda understand why the owners drive like maniacs

[ronch]

I like the way the Altima looks inside out a lot more than the Accord and Camry.

Have a Nissan Sentra SR 2020, little brother of the altima..we as a family have driven it everywhere in the US. National parks, Florida, California, Arizona and most of the North. Rain, snow, ice and never had any issues. We live in Texas and everything is extremely far from here.

I had a base model Altima as a rental and it was so much better than expected, seats were so comfortable and the CVT was the best CVT I’ve ever driven and I’ve driven Honda and Toyota CVTs which are much more reliable. The transmission was so quick and responded almost instantly and the car itself was pretty quick. It had a nice sound from the engine and great standard features. Pretty comfortable too. Overall I see why people buy these

[LordCommandor]

I owned a 05 Altima with 152k miles and that thing was a freaking 95% maintenance free diehard beast. I pushed it to the limits and she gave me a quality ride for every time I got behind the

[rosendorendonjr]

People here acting like Nissan is the only manufacturer who uses a CVT. It’s getting old reading the same comments. They’ve also improved their product.

[TimFilmsCars]

I just drove one of these for a month (rental car) in California. It gets way more hate that it deserves, I liked it! The CVT constantly revving and dropping + the interior creaks were def an issue.

[mythranite]

you can also put it in Sport mode by clicking that button on the shifter knob

[A_guan]

That turn signal is definitely annoyingly loud. I feel bad for the headphone users

[hariskarvounis]

What a relaxed car . This is actually pretty good

[OmarZ]

I noticed that loud turning signal even before you mentioned it. Pretty strange.
Maybe its volume can be adjusted in the settings like in Mazdas?

[othman]

Extremely comfortable seats and Bose system the best in class

[mistah_nahamsha]

We need cooled seats in the Rogue and Altima!!

[DESTRIAZ]

It does have a sport mode. There’s a little button on the back of the shifter. Press it and u see a little s pop on the dash by the gear indicator
