Nissan Altima
The Altima midsize sedan is no longer an attractive option for SUV-obsessed families. For 2024, only one engine (2.5-litre four-cylinder rated at 182 horsepower) and four trim levels remain. The good thing is that all-wheel drive comes standard across the lineup. The CVT-equipped, smooth-riding Altima is about fuel economy and comfort first and foremost, so it’ll never be as dynamic and pleasant to drive as a Honda Accord, let alone a BMW 3 Series.
