I bought my 2014 Altima SV in 2016 with 27,000 miles on it. It has broken down once on me (Jan 2019) and it was because of an electrical issue. It was back up and running after one day of repairs, but it was still very frustrating. There are a ton of people online that day the CVT transmission gives out before you even get to 100k miles. I currently have 61k and am concerned about the longevity of this car. Nissan seems to reject the notion that their CVT transmissions are a problem, despite the plethora of people out there who have had major issues. I would be very cautious about purchasing a Nissan with a CVT transmission. The best part of the SV trim is the interior. Very comfortable and roomy. However, reliability and longevity are what I look for the most in a car, and unsure if this Altima will last me 15-20 years like a Toyota would.

Beware of the CVT transmission. I had this car for almost a year, loved it for the better half of the year, until the transmission gave up on me. After reading other reviews of many others with the same issues, sounds like a got lucky. While most others said their car straight up died on them while driving, I noticed the signs of transmission failure immediately and pulled off the road to a safe place, turned off the car, and then when I turned it back on it was fine. Took it into Nissan dealer a few days later hoping for the best, but got the worst. There was a sensor or something that was failing within the transmission, and the only way to fix it was to replace entire transmission (about 4K to fix). The entire sound system also infrequently stops working completely, and starts working again for absolutely no reason. Other than those major issues, I did love the car. It was very smooth, handled well, got decent gas mileage, beautiful interior.

I love this car; this is my second Altima and it is way better than the first, which I drove for 210K miles before giving it to my nephew as his first car. I have owned two Accords before these two Altimas, and they were so overrated and the Altima is way better with reliability. No issues at all!

I purchased a 2014 Nissan Altima SV and I love it! I had a 2011 Altima that was a great car so I went back to Nissan and I love the changes they have made. The vehicle rides great and has "0" gravity drivers seat which makes a long trip alot more easy on my back. The Michelin tires that came on the vehicle create a smooth ride yet the suspension lets you also feel like you are still driving. The car looks very sporty and yet still has great interior space. Numerous people have commented on how great the car looks. The gas mileage is the best feature of all. I average 39 miles to gallon on the highway!! Nissan has built a great car that is fun to drive and yet provides the best gas mileage!
Very comfortable sedan that handles well.

One of the most comfortable cars you can sit in. Good power and handles very well for its size. Interior is nice but the plastic cover of the radio easily shows too many streak the second you wipe it and it was the worst bluetooth commands i've tried. How many times must i confirm to call someone??? Superb fuel economy.
