5th Gen Nissan Altima Sucks
Rented a 2014 Nissan Altima because that was the only car available for rental. Seriously, Altima sucks. There is a reason people consider Toyota and Honda over Nissan. Compare to my DD which is a 2014 Toyota Corolla, this 2014 Nissan Altima just sucks.
My first observation is the lack of:
- Touchscreen
- USB Port
Nissan Altima seats just plain sucks. Seats are just freaking terrible, flat and hard.
Nissan Altima's audio system/speakers just sucks. Compare to my Corolla's entune system, altima's audio system is just garbage
Once in motion, CVT transmission in Altima sucks compare to my Corolla.
Absolutely hate the front exterior view of 2014 Altima, it just looks hideous and ugly
Being a mid-size sedan, Altima is less spacious than Corolla in the rear.
When merging on highway, engine revs giving indication of what should be a neck snapping launch but in reality its more like 80's Hyundai speed. Based on car magazine this car should hit 60 mph in about 8 seconds which makes it faster than Corolla but for some reason it feels really sluggish due to it's annoying CVT rubber band effect and all those annoying engine noises.
5th gen Altima is more uninspiring to drive than my Corolla. It looks like Nissan has gotten lazy with the needed upgrades to keep it competitive with Honda and Toyota.
I don't know why so many people bother buying Nissan Altima. It just sucks and it's a really bad car for money.
Accord, Camry, Corolla are all FAR BETTER choices than Altima.
Don't know why would anyone pick Altima over Accord/Camry
Nissan's CVT really do suck.
I'm sure all Nissan owners are aware of it and if they are not, they better go and test drive, Honda Accord, Toyota Camry and Toyota Corolla to see the difference between their $hitty Nissan Altima and other cars in this class
As much as I hate it, I would have to say it's still better than VW's dirty diesel TDI
