Why it stands out

The 2018 Nissan Altima stands out as a well-equipped midsize sedan that leans more towards comfort and value than excitement. It wears the sixth-generation Altima’s sleek, sporty-looking, angular shape, and it comes with standard all-wheel drive in Canada, which is a notable advantage in a class where some rivals do not offer it at all. Nissan also gives it a strong safety and convenience package, with standard automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, forward-collision warning, rear automatic braking, lane-departure warning, radar-based blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and high-beam assist.

Under the bonnet, the Canadian-market 2018 Nissan Altima uses a 2.5-litre four-cylinder engine with 182 horsepower and 178 pound-feet of torque, paired with a continuously variable transmission. That combination is not aimed at thrills, and the CVT dulls the driving experience, but the car is tuned for quiet transportation and good fuel economy. Natural Resources Canada fuel consumption is listed at between 7.9 and 8.1 litres per 100 kilometres combined. The cabin is also well supported by infotainment and connectivity features, including a touchscreen, physical knobs and buttons, Bluetooth, USB ports, and Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, with wireless versions requiring an upgrade.

For buyers, the 2018 Altima’s appeal is the amount of equipment it offers for the money. Even the base S trim includes push-button ignition, blind spot monitoring, and AWD, while higher trims can add navigation and a Bose premium audio system. The SR trim brings extras such as 19-inch wheels, paddle shifters, and a leather-wrapped shifter. The main trade-offs are that the back seat is slightly smaller than before and resale values are only so-so, but for shoppers who want a comfortable, feature-rich sedan with standard AWD, it remains a compelling choice.
