this is the only reason why i have not moved forward with getting one of the two vehicles. i know the honda is more fuel efficient and of course more reliable then the nissan but i just can’t get over how much nicer the altima is.
I strongly disagree with you. Honda's reliability has been bad for so many years now. I've owned an Altima since 2009 and it still drives awesome to this day. This new Accord looks horrible. All it has is its bigger size advantage.
alot has changed in the 14 years since 2009. 2 sets of major EPA regulations have cost major waves of corner cutting, altimas sentra and maximas now all use a new CVT ( which is a fucking BELT not a set of real metal gears!)@@JoeE.
Lmao! give me hard data and examples, because they both have issues but you obviously have a clear bias towards an even more problem known brand@@JoeE.
Honda and Toyotas have the most ugliest cars to me. But they are very dependable and resale value is good. I have always like Nissan. They have very comfortable seats and nice looking cars.
I'm happy with my 2023 awd Altima SV. Rides smoothly and quietly. This is my 4th Nissan after having 3 Hondas. Hondas may handle slightly better but the sacrifice in ride quality isn't worth it. Reliability wise I've had less problems with Nissans.
About time I see people admit and express this! Honda has such a cult of personality who are often blinded by the age old idea that only Honda can make a solid car that lasts...which is bs!@@robertelder5770
I love my 2023 Altima 2.0 SR.. my trim level is fully loaded since I have the turbo engine. I love the interior on the Accord Touring.. but not a fan of it in a whole.
Seat comfort. The Altima blows away the Accord and it’s not even close. Shame you did not touch on that. That being said, the Accord all day and everyday. Nissan simply does not have good and reliable vehicles. They are above Hyundai/KIA though. Not by much.
Very few mainstream rides have better seats than Nissans. Their zero-gravity seating is not a gimmick. Toyota is perhaps the worst in this class, with Honda straddling the middle.
I am someone that drove in excess of 40,000 miles per year for many years. In my experience, seat comfort depends a lot on a person's size and shape. What is comfortable for one, may not be so for another person and vice versa. That maybe why they don't mention it.
Just bought the Altima Sr last month was torn. But to me came down to style. And hands down the Altima way more sporty look and feel. Happy with my choice and also leather is important to me. Honda to me just looks like a old car on the outside. Just not a fan looks ugly to me.
I like the brand new 2023 Honda Accord I will take that over to Nissan Altima I do the Nissan Altima do look good but technology no why are they still rocking with a analog gauge cluster and a Honda Accord come with a fully digital gauge cluster I'm taking the Accord over the Nissan Altima
That Is certainly true when it comes to older models but I work part time at a Nissan doing maintenance from Friday- Sunday and on a daily is see 2018 and up Nissan Altima’s with 200,000, 300,000, 400,000 miles on them with no issues whatsoever. Nissan stepped up there game after 2018 but because of all the issues they had before that people still believe they are unreliable
Altima is just all flash and no real substance. That's what Nissan does because they know they can't beat Honda in terms of overall quality and reliability. Accord all day in my book.
Even with its deficiencies (lack of AWD, cabin noise level, etc.), the Accord is and will always be the better car between these two. Too bad the Mazda6 isn’t around anymore.
The Altima looks better and is faster but that’s it. The Accord has a better interior, better tech and will probably be more reliable in the long run. Both are solid choices though
Altima looks better on the outside, has better seats and is faster , it has good tech as well and can drive on its own.. I would for sure take the Altima this time around since both are cvt. At least u get some more speed
@@loitersquadXyou worried about speed and that’s why Altima drivers have higher counts for tickets than most other cars and Altima only look better to people who never had a classy looking car people wanna be seen so bad they focus on looks and then wonder why they getting robbed or their car being broken in to I had a Honda accord and I lived in the hood and my car never got broken into but what do thieves take cars that people cared too much about looks with and cars people brag about with speed I been in dozens of cars and altimas are not all that bragging people be doing everything be basic and the seats aren’t even better than tesla seats and it’s damn sure not beating actual sport sedans in any race so it’s not that fast it’s about as far as any economy car and if you say otherwise you bias or just living in a fairytale
2024 Accord Hybrid is the best car I've owned overs the last 50+ years (except maybe the 68 Carero SS--RS I had). Very comfortable ride. Plenty of pickup and incredible gas millage! More room than the pre-2023 models. Even at 6'5", I can fit comfortably in the passenger seat or the driver's seat and have plenty of room.
The ONLY deciding factor is the expected life of the vehicle Honda all day as far as expectations on having the potential to hit 200,000 miles+ And, depreciating at much slower pace than the Altima Yeah, shiner looks, buttons etc... but with that CVT, you're really rolling the dice to get much past 100,000... Way worth it to pony the extra $ for a Honda or a Toyota... Yeah, an Altima MIGHT have a long life, but far greater chance with the Honda
I love my 2013 Accord but not a fan of the new models. Don’t like the way they look at all. Have been loving my 2023 Altima. Prefer it’s interior and seats are much more comfortable!
I like the Altima's looks better and when I rented one the seats really impressed me. A plus should be better deals at the Nissan dealer. However I drive a hybrid and really can't go back to ICE fuel economy. I really wish Nissan offered a hybrid.
Though the Altima has that Big Altima Energy, I’m with Accord all the way. The reliability, super low depreciation, much MUCH better CVT than Nissan’s exploding ones and nicer interior
Nissan had 5 years of cvt issues and replaced every last one of them. Ask the Honda owners about the 1.5t coolant leaks causing the engines to grenade at 60k miles lots of unhappy people with the new turbo Hondas. Or the 2.0 in the civics how many of them had the rings fail causing extreme oil consumption and engine failure. Hondas aren’t the same like they used to be. Nissan has really fixed their cvts and they’re some of the best in the Industry right now
@@futbol1972 I’ve been seeing some complaints on the new type r as well having issues with the turbos on the 2.0 but I don’t know or have seen anyone in the car community speak about it just internet
I keep any car I own 15 or so years. Since I'm pushing 70, any car I get may be my last. (My dad quit driving at 85. On his own.) I need to be happy with any car I would get. The Altima would seem to fit the bill quite nicely. And, it looks a lot better than the Accord.
Altima for me, I drove the 2018 model 5000km across Canada, driving an average of 9 hrs a day. After 9hrs of driving , I felt I could do another 9. Seats are amazing.
Accord all day everyday - Altima is antiquated and one of the worst vehicles I owned when I bought one brand new in 2007 that stayed in the dealer’s shop for recalls and a major brake system failure that caused an accident. - Besides, the new Accord to me is the top 3 best looking Accord with the ‘87 LX-i and short-run ‘06/‘07 model. The last gen was hideous but they’ve definitely made it look more “upscale” w/its refreshed aesthetics inside and out.
I’ll stay with Toyota! My 2nd choice would be the Nissan Altima SR trim. I would probably have an Altima SR with the VC turbo! However I traded my Altima off 4 weeks ago for another Camry XLE V6. Just can’t beat Toyota quality! Mark in Iowa. Appreciate you Drew and Mason! Mark.
Definitely not reliable but every modern Altima I’ve driven has been a very smooth ride and very comfortable seats. The seats have more cushion and wider than the seats in my 2019 Camry I used to have. I don’t care about sporty or handling anymore I only care about a cushiony ride and soft seats.
Look y’all, I recently sold my 07 Altima Hybrid. Amazing gas mileage. Why did I sell it? I’m not sure, I guess I wanted something new. The Altima has already reached about 218k miles. I wanted to keep the tradition going, I really wanted to get the new Altima as I really do like it. Well designed, best seating comfort in its class by far. But, I went with the 24’ Accord Hybrid Sport only because of the Hybrid system. If Nissan still made a hybrid Altima it’d be a no brained but unfortunately I’m not sure why they don’t considering all competition offers a hybrid. Nevertheless the less, I love my new Accord but the Altima will always have a place in my heart. It has too many haters, and it shouldn’t.
Love my 23 Honda Touring. Had an Altima in the past. Good car. But currently, the Accord safety features and gas savings are the leaders, which is important to me. The Camry would be my second choice. But for the information that I've gathered, the Accord is a winner here also.
Altima stigma too strong for me to even consider one besides the questionable reliability. Accord does everything better and I’ve grown to love its subdued premium look.
I recently had to decide between an Accord or Altima. I’ve had 2 previous Accords but eventually opted for an Altima. It had more options than a comparable Accord that I checked out. The styling of the Altima was definitely a big factor in my decision. Somehow, I was surprised that the Altima was more comfortable than the Accord after test drives. Price was another deciding factor. The Accord ended up being $3000 more than the Altima I bought but with less options. I don’t know why. Maybe because the Accord is seen as a more premium car.
Not sure comparing a redesign and new tech is exactly useful. Maybe the Altima and Camry ice, or Accord and Camry hybrid would be a good idea. How about legacy sport XL and the Altima VC turbo. Yea!!
Hello iam debating between these two cars for my son a 2023 nissan altima SR FWD with 25000 miles or a 2023 honda accord hybryd sport with 36000 miles?? The nissan altima is $22,546 and the honda hybrid is $25,000. I found several nissan altimas sr that are cheaper than honda hybrid. They have another nissan sr 2023 with 16,000 miles for $23,463. Dont know which car to get?
Have yet to drive Accord, but 2023 altima rental -- this is a very good commuter car. Driver comfort, ergonomics and interior appearance--top notch! Handling, steering, superb, quiet, engine power about what u expect, gas mileage is a bit ovverrated--i'd guess about 35 mpg highway.
it funny I keep wondering if you're getting bribed i thought your evaluation off. the altima looks way better on the outside and the seats are not even comparable, where i live the accord is 10000 more than the Altima and while mechanically the Honda wins, astatically honda shit the bed here. i do however like there interior but not worth 10000. so if i drove 10 years and got 100000 k i would spend 5000 on gas, that means its still 5000 more i would have to drive it 20 years to get my 10000 back
I owned 3 4 brand new Accord and I am a fan of Honda but this 2024's models really turn me down. The new Accord looks too ugly. I'm buying a new car in 2 mo months and still debating between these 2. 80% I won't get the Accord lol😅
Although Honda seriously diluted the Accord with this generation(specifically killing the excellent 2.0T/10AT combo), in this comparo...there just is no comparison. The Honda will first and foremost retain value much better, as well as have better safety ratings. The fuel economy is superior, as is the interior and trunk packaging(although the cloth choice here is a step back from the 18-22 Accord Sport seating). The Altima is an older design, but it is only a refresh(and transmission) away from being back in the game.
@@CreelKyle yes true. But I think your cloth/leatherette combo is wayyy better than the econo-grade stuff Honda is using with the new generation. The same for your black-painted gloss bumper trim over the flat-black dull stuff that they use on this generation that will fade. Hang on to your ride good buddy!
driven them both. not close. Altima is significantly more nimble, better handling particulary w Michelin Pilot All Season tires. No way to make a car better handling than this Altima. Accord is great but more stodgy and fits less well on its tires. Both interiors are comfortable. Altima seems a bit more attractive inside to me. These reviewers r just telling u bigger is better, brighter and more eye damaging is better, if it has more it is better. not necessarily boysl
Altima looks great, but the cvt transmission kills the way it drives, you are not going to get that sports car driving happiness, and you can't even hear the turbo if you're driving the vc turbo altima rs.
I rather have the altima the accord doesn’t have the aggressive look that it once had and they dropped the dual exhaust in the accord and they got rid of the 2.0 turbo sport model
The competiton is a lot closer for those in the market for a mid-sized sedan under 30K, gas-aspirated. It's too bad the Altima is not available as a gas hybrid, but there are definitely buyers with no interest in going pure EV.
Acabo de comprar el nuevo Nissan altima se 2024 30 dolares. Y está increíble el manejo súper suave rines nuevo diseño. Todo me gusta además el accord se quedó rezagado con esos rines que si ponen atención. Son los rines que le an puesto a los accord. Del 2017. Son rines de estrella. Además muy caro el accord me quedo con el altima.
Both are fairly good choice’s but I’m a Honda person all the way! I like the Altima it’s got the looks of like the sporty maxima stance to it. But the Honda would last the longest I think!
That Is certainly true when it comes to older models but I work part time at a Nissan doing maintenance from Friday- Sunday and on a daily is see 2018 and up Nissan Altima’s with 200,000, 300,000, 400,000 miles on them with no issues whatsoever
I Dunno. I like all wheel drive. I'd go with Honda, had one in TX. And anyone who has driven in TX knows you go with the flow or get run over or shot. First thing you learn is nice drivers get killed. 2nd thing you learn is, if they are going 105 mph, you go 105 mph. And lastly never ever look at another driver. Honda, I had would jump, and coming out of your exit fast and faster was a must have. Honda makes a really nice, dependable ride. And I'd rather have nice and ""Dependable""" any day over sporty or flashy or mud bogging ...!!! Dependable was my Honda never had #1 single problem out of it. Ever...!!! It was always ready to go. Day or night. Always got me from point A to point B. Never had it in a shop for repairs or recalls. I'm wanting one now, but it has to be all wheel or can't do it. I'll be trading in my 2022 Jeep Wrangler. Eco-diesel. I love the jeep, but it has a few things. Mid-life crisis made me buy it. Going to hurt trading it in. But I'm not a kid anymore. And at 6'5 my head hits the roof every bump. Had to have it though. We already have a 2023 Subaru Outback wagon. So, a nice coup or something would be better. We live in the country and our driveway is a 1/4-mile-long gravel road. All our roads are gravel. And winter comes without all wheel or 4 wheels, you're screwed. We have to get out. I Dunno. Ground clearance is going to be an issue as well. I hate trucks. Had #3 trucks through the years waste of good money, unless you're hauling pigs every day. Ford rode like a buck-board wagon.
I tried both of them as rentals but in the lower trims the Altima SV and the Accord EX. And I’ve got to say I preferred the Altima in everything seat comfort, Ride, Cabin Quietness plus the infotainment display on the non hybrid Accord is a joke probably the worst display out in the market right now. Shame tbh but based on my experience I would prefer the Altima. Not sure if the Accord hybrid is any different.
