Nissan Altima – Review, Specs, Pricing, Features, Videos and More
The Nissan Altima continues to carry the family sedan flag. Even if the segment is shrinking, the Altima continues to be a compelling vehicle that offers customers a few choices. There are front-wheel and all-wheel drive versions, as well as a sporty turbocharged top-of-line model.
Most Altima’s though continue to use Nissan’s 2.5-liter four-cylinder paired to a CVT. It’s a smooth, quiet, drivetrain that delivers good fuel economy figures.
Pros | Available AWD, solid fuel economy, affordable price tag, easy to use infotainment |
Cons | Turbo is front-drive only, overly aggressive Lane Keep Assist, front seat position |
Bottom Line | The Altima remains a smart, if aging, choice in the mid-sized sedan segment. Like many others in this dwindling class, it's a lot of car for the money, if you haven't been seduced by high-riders. |

2023 Nissan Altima SR Premium AWD Review
Sedans, like the Nissan Altima, used to be the go-to-choice for family transportation.
But times change and so do consumer’s taste. Once the staple of the suburbs, for many, mid-size sedans have been relegated to afterthought status. It’s a new world out there, ruled by high riding SUVs.
Sales of family sedans have dwindled so much over the past decade; many have been put out to pasture. The Ford Fusion, Volkswagen Passat, Mazda6, and Chrysler 200 are all no more.
But it’s not all doom and gloom. There’s still hope for fans of four-doors. Manufacturers are still building family friendly sedans. One of these offerings is the 2023 Nissan Altima SR Premium AWD.

The Nissan Altima is an attractive player in the segment, offering athletic handling and comfortable seating for the front row. Unlike the Accord, it does not offer a hybrid variant.
