The Altima is Nissan’s mid-size saloon, a rival to the Camry and Accord. It’s comfortable, economical and usually cheaper than its Japanese rivals of the same year.
Altimas use a CVT automatic. CVTs on 2013–2018 models in particular can shudder, whine or fail at high mileage. When buying, test drive from cold, accelerate gently and hard, and listen for whining. Ask whether the CVT fluid has been changed (every 40,000–60,000 km is ideal).
The Toyota Camry and Honda Accord hold value better and have tougher gearboxes. The Altima is cheaper to buy for the same year and comfortable. Also compare the Nissan Maxima and Chevrolet Malibu.
About ₦3.5m–₦35m depending on year.
The engine is reliable; the CVT gearbox needs care and regular fluid changes.
Yes, usually by a noticeable margin for the same year.
