Nissan Altima L33

2013–2018 · L33 · sedan

Fifth-generation Altima. 2.5L QR25DE I4 (~182hp) as the volume engine, 3.5L VQ35DE V6 (~270hp) optional through 2018. Xtronic CVT only, no manual offered. FWD. Built at Nissan's Smyrna, TN and Canton, MS plants. One of the best-selling sedans in the US during its run.

Watch out: Nissan's Xtronic CVT is the long-term ownership question. Nissan extended powertrain coverage to 10 years / 120,000 miles on earlier model years after a class-action settlement. Symptoms to watch: hesitation, shuddering, jerky engagement, and a high-RPM 'rubber band' feel. Check the build date and warranty status on any used L33.
