I love the mpg it was 30 mpg in the city and 33 on the highway. it has great acceleration for a hybrid letting you comfortably merge into traffic while having great mpg. It was very roomy every seat had plenty of space. The back passenger seats can comfortably fit 3 adults. It is extremely reliable I have driven the car from 80,000 miles to 140,000 and have had no problem or repairs since I have had it. I was in a car accident where I was side swiped and the car did not lose control. It has very good side crash reliability because of this. One of the things I did not like about the car was that the trunk space was not very large. Another dislike that I had was that the handling was not the best. My favorite part of the car is the styling. The car was a midnight grey and had tinted windows. I always got lots of compliments on the look of the car. One thing people might not know is that if you run out of gas the car still has a few miles that it can run on electric. This feature isn't very reliable, but it has saved me few times when I needed it.

I had owned Nissan's before and had even owned a Nissan Altima SV in 2012. I was excited about the features listed in the sales brochure for a Hybrid Altima as I was impressed by the non-hybrid Altima. The vehicle handled very well, and the gas mileage turned out to be just average. I had averaged over 38 miles per gallon on my earlier Altima, and I was expecting a 10 to 12 mile per gallon increase in the hybrid model. I kept track of the mileage over a six month period, and I noted the very best mileage I got while driving on the interstate at seventy miles per hour was only 42 miles per gallon. I had hoped it would get better, but not much improvement occurred.

I like the overall performance of the car. I was impressed with the ample power offered by the 2014 Nissan Altima’s standard four-cylinder engine and say the optional six-cylinder engine has even more juice. All models come with a continuously variable transmission that reviewers say is responsive and operates smoothly. However, they note that the powertrain can be loud, especially with the four-cylinder engine. The Altima gets an EPA-estimated 27/38 mpg city/highway with the base engine, which is great for the class. The automotive press says that sharp handling makes the Altima a standout among family sedans, most of which are a snooze to drive.
