    Buying the 2021 Nissan Altima SL

    We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2021 Nissan Altima SL for sale by us right now. Here is what to know about the 2021 Nissan Altima SL before buying one.

    What to check on the Altima

    Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car.

    Specs, explained

    Its powertrain is the 2.5L 4-cylinder with front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.

    The combined figure, 7.6 L/100 km, means roughly 23 litres for 300 km. The fuel for 100 km comes to about $11.78 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,150 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.

    Good uses for the Altima

    It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one. It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy.

    Room inside

    As a mid-size car, it has a closed trunk that keeps luggage out of sight. Luggage space is rated at 425 litres: a family's bags for a long weekend.

    A longer test drive

    Drive the Altima on your commute before you commit to it. If the Altima is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience.

    Picking a year and a trim

    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.

    The cost of driving it

    At our price setting, 100 km costs about $11.78 in fuel. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car.
