Lease takeover: 2023 Nissan Altima SL in Java

Lease takeover: the 2023 Nissan Altima SL

No 2023 Nissan Altima SL is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. CarmaCars is not a leasing company. You can rent month to month and stop at the end of any booking. Here is the 2023 Nissan Altima SL for buyers: fuel use, size, recalls and a test drive that lasts a week.

A buyer's checks

Owners filed 30 complaints with NHTSA, most often about electrical system, engine and forward collision avoidance; have those parts checked. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. NHTSA lists no recall campaign for this model year. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it.

The figures, translated

The powertrain to know here 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, 7.8 L/100 km, means roughly 23 litres for 300 km. Driving 300 km costs roughly $36.27 at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,250 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

Who rents the Altima

It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month. It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while.

Practical details

A car body like this keeps the weight low, so it feels settled on the highway. With 425 litres of luggage space by the EPA's measure, it takes a family's bags for a long weekend.

Drive it on your own roads

Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. Rent the Altima first, and buy only if it fits your life. If the Altima is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge.

Choosing the right one

Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first.

What it costs to run

The EPA estimates US$2,250 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $120.90 at our price setting.
