About this model

2012 Nissan Altima

Середньорозмірний седан · generation 2013–2024

Our takeНайдешевший спосіб отримати mid-size sedan з США. Але обов'язково перевіряйте CVT перед покупкою — найкраще брати лоти з пробігом до 150 000 км або з документами про заміну варіатора.

Strengths

Найдешевший в сегменті mid-size — багато лотів на Copart по $3–7k
Двигун 2.5L QR25DE — простий, без турбо, ремонтопридатний
Просторий салон, м'яка підвіска під українські дороги

Weaknesses

CVT варіатор JF017E — слабке місце, типова заміна $3 000+ після 150 000 км
Інтер'єр з дешевого пластику до 2019
