Expert 2024 Nissan Altima review

Our expert's take
By Cars.com Editors
Full article

What Is the 2024 Nissan Altima?

The five-seat Altima is Nissan’s mid-size sedan. The base engine is a 2.5-liter four-cylinder that makes 188 horsepower with front-wheel drive and 182 hp with all-wheel drive. A variable-compression turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder that makes 236 hp (248 hp with premium gas) is standard on the line-topping 2.0 SR trim level. Both engines work with a continuously variable automatic transmission. Altimas with the 2.5-liter four-cylinder can have FWD or AWD, but the turbo 2.0-liter four-cylinder comes only with FWD. The Altima competes with the Chevrolet Malibu, Honda Accord, Hyundai Sonata, Kia K5 and Toyota Camry.

What’s New on the 2024 Nissan Altima?

The Altima sees no significant changes for 2024 after a mild refresh last year. Buyers of all but the base trim get a longer trial period — three years instead of six months — for the NissanConnect Services app, which enables remote locking and starting among other smartphone-based features.

What Features in the 2024 Nissan Altima Are Most Important?

Standard features include:

  • Fabric upholstery
  • 16-inch steel wheels
  • 60/40-split folding backseat
  • Remote start
  • Bluetooth connectivity
  • Forward collision warning
  • Automatic emergency braking
  • Blind spot warning
  • Lane departure warning
  • Rear cross-traffic alert with automatic braking
  • Automatic high-beam headlights

Available features include:

  • Leather-trimmed seats
  • 19-inch alloy wheels
  • Heated front seats
  • Heated steering wheel
  • 12.3-inch touchscreen multimedia system
  • Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone connectivity
  • Wireless phone charging
  • Satellite radio
  • Bose premium stereo
  • 360-degree camera system
  • Adaptive cruise with lane tracing steering

Should I Buy the 2024 Nissan Altima?

The Altima is a good value, with a full suite of safety tech. Available AWD is a plus, as is the car’s respectable EPA-estimated gas mileage. The Altima saw its last full redesign for the 2019 model year, and even with a freshening last year, it’s starting to show its age against the newer designs of some class rivals. The top-line 2.0 SR trim offers a satisfying horsepower boost, but its handling isn’t quite as crisp as a true sport sedan’s — and it’s not available with AWD.

    Great mileage and very nice interior.

    Great mileage and very nice interior. Lotsa stuff but sadly only drivers window is auto. Wheels are terrible. They look great but very hard to clean. Good trunk space and nice seats. Having problems with backup camera it looks very foggy. Had it back to dealer twice, no luck. No CD player.. big downgrade.

    Our 2024 Altima was in an accident in August.

    Our 2024 Altima was in an accident in August. As of today January 7th we still do not have the car because Nissan has not been able to provide a part needed for a rear airbag. Nissan corporate and the dealership both continue to blame each other with no eta for when we will get the part from them. We are now our four payments and insurance since August approximately $2000. Corporate and the dealership both said to file a consumer complaint against the other. Our car has only 1152 miles on it. Do not buy or lease a Nissan

    Very sporty inside and out.

    Very sporty inside and out. Great gas mileage. I like that it has just the right amount of buttons and dials, not too much. The seats are very comfortable.
