    The 2021 Nissan Altima S for buyers

    We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2021 Nissan Altima S for sale by us right now. Thinking about the 2021 Nissan Altima S? Here are the numbers in plain words and what to check.

    What to check on the Altima

    Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Owners filed 70 complaints with NHTSA, most often about forward collision avoidance, electrical system and service brakes; have those parts checked. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace.

    The numbers in plain words

    Its 2.5L 4-cylinder drives through an automatic (CVT). It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.

    At 7.4 L/100 km combined, a 300 km drive takes roughly 22 litres of fuel. For 1,000 km, budget about $114.70 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,100 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.

    The Altima in everyday use

    As a mid-size car, it is easy to drive and park in the city. For luggage, 425 litres means a family's bags for a long weekend.

    Who the Altima suits

    It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy. It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town.

    Drive it on your own roads

    Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. A week with the Altima answers more than any brochure. Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car.

    Money matters

    The EPA estimates US$2,100 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $11.47 in fuel. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.

    Which one to look for

    Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.

    Renting for Basic
