2018 Nissan Altima SR Test Drive & Review

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Check out my 2019 Altima review here! - kzbin.info/www/bejne/r6DQqHR4h7qVhck Thanks for watching! What do you think of the Altima? Are you content with what this offers or are you excited for the 2019 Altima? If you want to see the Maxima, watch it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nGikqp-tfq2ZnaM

[@ZalmaiPashtun]

Thank you for detailed review, you are doing a great job Nolan. Keep it up!

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Hikmat Ullah thanks so much, always appreciated! I definitely need to improve in ways, and will. It’s hard for me to be enthusiastic talking to a camera, like that one guy said haha, but I’ll get better with it. Going to make my Mazda3 video my best one yet coming out next week! Appreciate your support so much

[@ZalmaiPashtun]

No worries bud, nobody is perfect. Wish you all the best for your Mazda3 and all other videos

[@Silverbulletzx3]

Love the review and subscribed. I actually wanted to get the 2019, but they just had massive rebates on the 2018's. I had to pull the trigger. Also, I hated the very existence of CVT's before I drove the SR. Sure, a standard transmission would have been more fun, but it's got me sold. Hell, I bought the car, didn't I?

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Thanks very much! I know what you mean with the rebates! I did the same thing when I was buying my last car..new generation coming out but sold myself in the discounts lol. Happy to hear that and thanks for sharing this with me. Thanks again! 👍

[@Theonestrongbusleader]

It's been 5-6 years and this car is still on my list for me to buy it as my daily to go places.

[@cleveycleve4501]

I saw a used one for 9k might cop 👮

[@Silverbulletzx3]

I just bought my 2018 SR in Metallic Grey with tinted windows. With the black/silver wheels, darkened headlights and tail lights, and the chrome trim it makes for a very attractive package. It looks less run of the mill, and more sporty. I love this vehicle. It has enough get when you need it, it's comfortable, and amazing on fuel economy without the hassle of a hybrid.I get that the infotainment system is lacking, but it really is a simple upgrade. You can also get aftermarket head units that are superior to the factory ones found in the special edition. Many that retain the steering wheel functions.

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Well said! Happy to hear that you’re enjoying yours and thanks for sharing that! 👍

[@edgarc3091]

Altima looks great exterior wise, but interior wise is where it lacks heavily. Glad the 2019s have new tech in the interior. Apple CarPlay is a must for me.

[@PrimeAutotainment]

You’re right about that! I’m glad to see improved 2019 as well...and Im with you on the Apple CarPlay. Thanks for watching!

[@Nova_Dubz]

I just bought a 2018 Altima SR Midnight Edition. It does include Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. It has leather seats, navigation, and a ton of other features. All of that said, It's still a great car, but I can't wait to see the 2019 Altima.

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Good choice with the SR midnight, that’s the one I would have liked to review! I’m with you on the 2019 and excited to get behind the wheel. Thanks for watching, enjoy your Altima!

[@charlie_mk7.5]

Edgar C apple car play sucks ass

[@Jeymez]

i disagree interior looks great.

[@manipec91]

I have a 2018 Nissan Altima Sr in deep blue pearl. I have custom diamond stitching leather seats that are heated. These were factory installed. So it feels special to me. I changed majority of my lights to LEDs. I even changed my drl to ice blue leds. It has enough power to get the job done. Overall, I love my car. I have no complaints except the infotainment system and the car should have blind spot warning standard. Infotainment should be touch screen with an xm button. That's all.

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Great to hear, thanks for sharing and I hope you continue to enjoy your Altima! 👍

[@terrancecosby4805]

I love mine too

[@terrancecosby4805]

[@ZalmaiPashtun]

The Altima is still a strong offering from Nissan despite the tough competition in this segment. It may lack the AWD of Legacy, the sportiness of Accord, the reliability of a Camry, the roominess of Fusion and the elegance of a Passat but its a good car overall. Once you own an Altima, you will not have complains about it, its a simple yet practical midsize workhorse. One of the top three best selling family sedan. Great review Nolan!!!

[@PrimeAutotainment]

You always have such great input on every video. I couldn’t agree more with all of that. Thanks again for watching!!!

[@blexy350]

A nice thing about the 2019 model is that it will offer AWD but only with base engine I believe, not the 2.0 VC-T.

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Dang that’s a bummer. I feel that the more powerful engine should absolutely have AWD instead of or in addition to FWD...now it’s time for more manufacturers to offer AWD in their sedans. Thanks for the input

[@ZalmaiPashtun]

Yes you are right VQ it will have an AWD with the base engine

[@ZalmaiPashtun]

This is what Nissan does; taking a different approach, even if the 2T is more powerful of an engine

[@beamer138]

Nice review! Well done. This car looks sharp from the exterior design but as many have commented, the interior and technology is a bit behind its peers. With that said, you can probably get one for a great price this fall with all the incentives esp with the 2019s on deck. I have a 2011 Altima 2.5s as my daily driver and its a terrific car. This model is generation 4.5 and has been the most reliable and best quality in the history of Altima. Its basically a no frills mid size sedan that takes care of you and very low maintenance. I have 126K on it and all I've done are oil changes, 2 sets of new tires and a new battery. It's in pristine shape. The 2018 has better technology but is really of the same product. If you can buy an SR for $21K, it's probably a decent buy. I plan to keep mine for a while - may just run it into the ground! Lol I bought a gently used BMW 328i Sport line last year and that's my fun weekend ride :) otherwise the Altima takes care of me.

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Thanks for all the info! Happy to hear your 2011 is doing well for you! Nice choice for the weekend car too...thanks for watching and sharing with us 👍

[@texan903]

Do you still have the Altima?

[@beamer138]

@@texan903 I traded up for a 2020 SR a couple years ago. My longtime dealer made me a good offer. This new generation is the best Altima yet - the CVT is more refined. Better car in every way, except that I miss having a CD player! Lol 😂. If you're considering it, the sporty SR model is a must with the sports tuned suspension, 19 inch rims and interior sport aesthetics. It's a head turner man. Add a PS style spoiler and tint the windows - it will look dope. They have a midnight edition SR - probably the best choice to go with. Lastly the fuel economy is spectacular - getting mid 40s highway consistently in dry weather!

[@christo6765]

Great job Nolan. you re getting there. Somehow your reviews have something the others are missing and its inviting. Cant say for sure what it is, but you got it! And good for you to realize where you need to improve. Im sure you will do fine. and thank you!

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Very nice! Thank you!

[@travelseatsyellowlab]

My 2008 Infiniti G35 Sport is life itself. The Sport seats hug you tight, they're the most comfortable, supportive car seats I've ever sat in. Heated 14-way power adjustable memory seats are among the best. A six speed manual transmission makes it a blast to drive. The handling gets an A-plus. Saturday, I was looking at the new Nissan offerings with no immediate plans to purchase. Somehow I allowed the salesperson into my pockets as I drove off the lot with a 2018 Altima SR. The sparkling blue paint is gorgeous. Handling is decent, the seats supportive and comfortable, fuel economy is great. I like the center arm rest, sleek styling and I feel safe with its size. Paddle shifters are almost pointless as the experience isn't anything like a manual transmission. All in all, the Altima is a much newer car than my Infiniti and while there are clear advantages over the G35, the Altima can't come close to matching the performance and driving experience of the Infiniti. I need a front wheel drive for the Central Arkansas winters and am afraid it'll be too harsh on the Infiniti. Recommended premium fuel for the G35 is a downside, but the Nissan comes with a lifetime power train warranty, something that's more advantageous than the Infiniti. Maybe it's a good thing I allowed the dealer to practically select a car for me. I like the Altima, maybe I will grow to love it once I no longer have a car note but I absolutely LOVE the G35 and can't really ever see myself parting with it unless I am offered the right amount of money.

3.5sr is more for u then

Thank you! Yes the 3.5 is my favorite for sure, wish it was available with every trim nowadays.

[@christo6765]

Nolan, someone, PLEASE explain why you think the paddles are useless on a CVT! I find them as productive for sport driving as on any other transmission. It makes the car so much more fun! Plain and simple: you get to control the RPM's and ratios for power shifting (up and down) as opposed to the economical programming of the auto mode.

[@PrimeAutotainment]

I understand what you’re saying! Paddle shifters are nice in any car, or even the option to manually change gears. I personally really am glad to have them going down a steep grade so you can engine break, in addition to having fun with them. The only thing s our CVT paddles is that they usually try to mimic a 6 speed, but sometimes don’t respond the right way, that’s all though. Either way, I agree with you that they are nice to have!

[@michaeldiaz2409]

The midnight edition is better with the blacked out grill

[@PrimeAutotainment]

I agree! Wish I could have shown one of those instead

[@michaeldiaz2409]

Yes I’m debating to buy the 2018 Nissan Altima sr midnight edition or the Sentra nismo or sr turbo I’m in a pickle lol I like both but I live in Chicago so the Sentra is easier to fit in parking spots 🤔

[@PrimeAutotainment]

[@pickledtoejams5250]

[@chaoand09]

2018 Accord better. I love my 18 Accord Sport. It’s simplistic and stylish in my opinion. Already up 10k miles and it handles corners and speeds up on freeway like no other. Being Cvt, it sounds real good. No exaggeration. But this Altima...lag in all. Exterior and interior. Until Nissan can release anything real good at all, Honda is life.

[@PrimeAutotainment]

I agree that the 2018 Accord is way ahead of the Altima right now. I’ve driven that too and it’s very impressive. Glad you like your sport and thanks for the input!

[@robertoleeva985]

I own this exact car. And can't wait to get rid of it. I have exhausted my roadside assistance, the push button is a no-start randomly where I need to call roadside assistance for a jump.. there is no way to turn off the fog lights when the car is on, or set to ACC. Or when you wanna charge your phone or listen to the radio without havinging the engine running. This causes rapid battery drain. Pairing my cellphone to Bluetooth is hit or miss. You have to turn the car on off/on 2 times to get the stero to link.. What a pain. Dealer can't find nothing wrong .

[@NissanAltimaGuy]

Not dog lights those are your Daytime running lights. When it doesn’t seem to start out your key fob by the push to start button and press it with the fob. As far as charging your phone without accessory mode just charge your phone at home.

[@augustrushdesigns3890]

While the 2018 Altima is overall a great car, however, the interior of my 2017 Sentra SV is much nicer in my opinion. These zero-gravity seats in the Altima are top-notch, but my steering wheel and instrument panel have a more premium look/feel. Everybody's opinion is different, but I didn't see the value in getting an Altima vs. a Sentra (besides the engine). On a side-note, the 2019 Altima looks pretty awesome. I will probably get that Altima once they do a mid-cycle refresh and work out all the bugs. Prime Autoainment, what do you think of the 2019 Altima?

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Glad to hear from ya, I’m hoping to get behind the wheel of a Sentra soon too. I like the 2019 Altima and really love how AWD will be offered. Can’t wait for them to be released to check out. Thanks for sharing that and for watching!

[@augustrushdesigns3890]

I definitely agree about the AWD. I live in an area where AWD is very helpful at times, but not necessary. The competition is so fierce between the Camry, Accord, and Altima- AWD Altima should make things interesting. They are also coming out with a new Sentra either 2019 or 2020. I hope they give it more power....

[@PrimeAutotainment]

No doubt...I’m really surprised Accord it Camry don’t offer that, Altima might steal from people away from them. Agreed with the Sentra...I would assume they do!

[@IAmAirion]

My son has this car premium package and the one thing I didn’t ask was about the remote to start and heat or air. He remote started at like 5am to turn on heat but got in the car and it was blowing outside air which was freezing. I don’t understand why build remote start if driver can’t warm or cool the car?

Is these cars are great in engine and trany???

If I get a SR midnight edition will I get all these features like apple CarPlay plus the led drl’s?

@@PrimeAutotainment They each look sleek, though the Altima SR looks better than the Accord Sport. However, Accord Sport offers a manual transmission and has more horsepower than Altima SR.

[@jayxproductions]

Putting 4K down is probably the dumbest thing you could do. You still got a lot to learn bro. You need good credit to begin with, if you want to lease a newer 17’ 18’ or 19’ model. Not to mention get a co signer since you’re a minor. I don’t recommend putting down 4K from the start. That wouldn’t change the end price of the car. Msrp is 25k-27k, that’s before the final interest. Depending what percentage of interest you get. I don’t recommend putting down 4K because it wouldn’t change the price of the vehicle. That money would go towards the interest and not the principle at the start. You’d basically be wasting money and your interest would remain the same. I put less of a down payment on mine. What WOULD’VE been part of the down payment is now going towards my monthly payments which will initially bring down my total end interest and the amount I owe every month.

Can’t remember for sure but pretty sure for 2018 they only let the SL trim get the 3.5. I’ve seen 2017s have it but I don’t think you can anymore

[@chonsmtv3268]

Why does this look like exact 2016

[@PrimeAutotainment]

They didn’t change body style until 2019 model

[@jeromeandrews3776]

*8:52** iPhone plus. Lol I need one*

[@samlung2724]

The fact that Nissan used the same interior layout of the Altima since like what? 2003?

[@texan903]

You've clearly not been inside either year of the Altima if that's what you think.

[@orestescr3415]

I was a Datsun/Nissan guy for more than 30 years until Nissan decided to stop offering stick shits and use those useless CVTs. Since then I am a Honda guy and yes I got a 6-Speed Accord Sport. Heres to hoping Nissan gets back to their senses and offer a 6-Speed manual or at least a non CVT 7 or 8 speed auto. IMHO

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Thanks for sharing that! I agree and wish they would offer at least something else. How are you liking the Accord sport?

[@orestescr3415]

Prime Autotainment, I was not expecting what I got to say the least. Yes, it is not the most beautiful Accord ever but like others have said once you drive one it shows and feels that indeed it is a better product. Like I said I do long for a 6-Speed Altima or Maxima as I still have a soft spot for Nissans. Just not ones with a CVT.

[@PrimeAutotainment]

I agree about how it feels once you drive it, impressed me. Maybe someday they will again, hopefully!

[@CeanMurq]

Ok

[@jasonwhite7316]

Is that a 20% tint?

[@jamie123b]

Renting an Altima from Alamo in Orlando next week, anyone know whether it’s this model or older one?

[@PrimeAutotainment]

I rented from Alamo a few weeks back and got a ‘17 model. So you would probably get that or ‘18! But the ‘17 isn’t really any different anyways

[@jamie123b]

Prime Autotainment ok cool thanks!

[@SuperBobby47]

Blind spot monitors?

[@drewski1441]

Cannot use the word sport in conjunction with a CVT transmission, that's an oxymoron. CVT is just plain crap.

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Nissan still calls the Maxima a “4 door sports car” too

[@PrimeAutotainment]

The fact that Infiniti kept the CVT with their all new VC Turbo engine means Infiniti/Nissan are ALL IN on CVTs...I wish there was at least an option for a different transmission

[@yamomma8916]

My transmission blew at 15k miles . It was a 2016 Altima SR . CVT is Crap and Nissan is Crap

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Sorry to hear that Z FAM702!

[@joshualashley5103]

CVT’s suck! After a while the transmission gone start slipping and then it’ll start going in theft mode while you’re driving. Do not buy this problem!!!!!!!!!!!

[@BeagleChanzxro]

There is a nissan leaf

[@latochabristol2412]

I have a 2013 Nissan Altima SV model and for this to be a 2018 this sucks. I have the same functions in my 2013 SV, the only difference is the look of the body. Not really impressed.

[@sulaimanhakimi3685]

How is audio system like?

[@NissanAltimaGuy]

Pretty damn good for a stock stereo

[@TeamLittleFeet]

Dont see any changes compare to 13 SV. I'll wait for the 19 platinum

[@PrimeAutotainment]

That 19 Altima is pretty sweet! I’m excited to get behind the wheel

[@TheKiing81]

Aren't the led daytime running lights are on the Sr sl standard?

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Good question, they come on the SR midnight, but not this base SR. Here’s a brochure: cdn.dealereprocess.net/cdn/brochures/nissan/2018-altima.pdf I think they should come on all because it’s basically built in...just doesn’t work!

[@tripzuki7462]

The 2018 Altima SR Midnight Edition does not have LED DRls , the 2017 model did however. I guess Nissan added the Navigation, ACP and AA, heated front seats etc. in place of it. None of the SR models have LED DRls for 2018. Even the standard SL 2018 2.5 model doesn't have them, but it is a feature with the TECH PACKAGE. Also, the headlight for the Altimas equipped with LED DRLs is different from the non equipped ones. In order to get the LED boomerang you have to get the complete headlight. If you look closely at them, you can see they are different.

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Good to know. That’s weird it changed from 2017 to 2018. When I was looking at specs on the Nissan sight it showed that the midnight did have the LED headlights with signature. Thanks for the info on the tech package too.

[@soeurthmouv4939]

What kind gas Nissan Altima use....

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Soeurth Mouv regular 87

[@mikecadile30]

Altima.all thank I mike always.

[@BeagleChanzxro]

Luxury altima

[@ganstagabe9928]

This car a joke its 2018 and no sun roof no heated or cooled seats no blind spot detection really and a lil screen for 24000 what are u really paying for no leather seats like Nissan bogus for this car

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Yep ya gotta move up in trim for that stuff. It’s available...but just not on this one. No cooled seats though

[@texan903]

@@JustinDwaynee S is the entry trim. SR is next in order above the S, then SV and SL. Those features you name won't be included on lower trims.

[@boredcompsciguy]

I picked up a sentra last year with 71k on the clock and found out it has a shiny new (remanned) cvt inside, so I feel like I'm stepping on glass every time I get on the freeway with the damn thing, just waiting for it to break a new second time. Can't wait to get rid of the piece of shit

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Dang that stinks. That’s a shame. Hopefully it does well for you with no issues! What do you think you’ll get next?

[@boredcompsciguy]

Prime Autotainment I'm in the market for a tundra since apparently being a welder means people want you to build things for them, but I can't fit a damn thing in this tiny sedan. Having 4 wheel drive in northern Utah is kind of a must when you live around the mountains too. Getting the wife a Subaru since I trust their cvt's a little more and she can't handle snow to save her life. She has a 99 Altima gxe right now and I like driving it more than the '12 sentra for any reason. Nissan was better when they had gears

[@PrimeAutotainment]

I agree on Nissan back in the day. Good choice with the Subaru! I like the tundra. It’s not as “Modern” as the others but it should be reliable and it has plenty of space, power, capability. Good luck getting your truck...and have fun making stuff for people 👍

[@matildeeexD]

What kind of gas should the 2018 Altima run on?

[@PrimeAutotainment]

It only needs regular unleaded, no need for premium gas

[@matildeeexD]

Prime Autotainment thank you!

[@PrimeAutotainment]

You’re welcome!

[@truthbetold9806]

Try 110 octane. It’ll run better trust me

[@ashleykey7574]

This vehicle is not an '18. It's a '17!

[@PrimeAutotainment]

It’s an 18 - they have the same body style until 2019

[@sb-_-cointelpro4647]

SENTRA XL

Nice vedio I need a job. Pls help me

That cup holder too small

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Worked for me but yeah big cup holders are always nice to have

[@BlankUser8592]

Prime Autotainment I have that same poweraid bottle and I know it so small

[@PrimeAutotainment]

I need to start carrying around a fat cup or bottle to test em out

[@BlankUser8592]

Prime Autotainment I bet a large soda doesn’t fit there neither a big water bottle

[@texan903]

Those cupholders are great. Unless you're drinking a double Big Gulp, the cupholders work great.

[@하세월-p2t]

too old-fashioned interior

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Yeah it’s dated...looking forward to checking out the 2019s new interiors soon

[@mbenton6]

Steering buttons are plastic and cheap and looks and feels cheap

[@fucktheworld1873]

rip off. I have a base 16 everything is exactly the samr

[@Loso0523]

fuck the world 18 you don’t have sport tuned suspension this does, you don’t have paddle shifters this does,nor does the 16 base have prima-Tex appointed leather seats

[@Loso0523]

And no rear USB ports on a 16 base so it’s not the same you’re getting more options with this trim, I never understand why ppl don’t wanna pay a few extra bucks and get more options instead of a basic model🤦🏼‍♂️

[@mchlcordell]

Sport cloth 😂😂

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Lol...Nissans’s words. It’s what you get with the “sporty” trim of the Altima 🙂

[@jesseniaroman94]

I hate my 17 Nissan Altima 🙄🙄

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Dang what do you hate about it?

[@bigshark1270]

Awful spec

[@BlazinNSoul]

Too bad I didn't have $30,000 to buy one. Oh well keep dreaming I guess. :/

[@Iraqveteran-ke6qu]

BlazinNSoul 21k OTD where I'm from. Bakersfield CA

[@PrimeAutotainment]

You can definitely negotiate a lot on the Altima right now since 2019 models will be coming soon!! Way to go International Monarch!

[@Iraqveteran-ke6qu]

Prime Autotainment Yeah, I thought that was a good deal. I was ready to buy, check in hand. Guy took to long to get back to me. Drove 2 hours for a 17 Subaru legacy 2.5 limited for the same price. Couldn't turn that down. I just wish Subaru would make the same zero gravity seats Nissan puts in theirs.

[@PrimeAutotainment]

No kidding the seats are one of my favorite things

[@BlazinNSoul]

International Monarch Trade lol. Good job finding that. :b

[@babybon1]

Nothing great about a Nissan

[@truthbetold9806]

babybon1 kia?

[@mbenton6]

This car is shitty. The steering feel is just clumsy and unreluable... not promising at all or confidence ehen driving hard.... really scary... can't wait to return it

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Sorry man! What do you think you’ll get instead?

[@truthbetold9806]

Prime Autotainment a Kia Forte

[@mchlcordell]

Geez the interior is just garbage

[@mchlcordell]

[@mchlcordell]

Wouldn't be talking shit if I didn't actually sit in it and drive it but a difference in opinion is exactly what it is sorry your butthurt.
