Let's see how the 2015 Nissan Altima stacks up against the Honda Accord.

Power and Performance

The 2015 Nissan Altima is packed with performance. Under the hood, you'll find two available engines -- a 2.5-liter 4-cylinder with 182hp or a 3.5L V6 with a massive 270 hp. So there's an Altima out there to suit everyone's driving style. A 6-speed CVT automatic transmission with all 4-cylinder trims and paddle shifters are added to the V6 trim to enhance your driving experience. Compare this to the Honda Accord, which offers two Inline 4-cylinder engines-- one at 185 hp and a sport engine at 189 horsepower, and a V6 with 278hp. The Accord may be slightly more powerful, but the Altima's standard CVT gearbox means you'll get better overall fuel economy.

With a head-to-head comparison, the Altima gets 38 mpg highway, while the Inline-4 Accord achieves only an estimated 36 mpg highway with automatic transmission, and the V6 will set you back even more at the pump with only 26 mpg estimated on the highway.

Altima Style Compared to Accord Style

Given that both the 2015 Nissan Altima and Honda Accord have similar specs for a comparable price, it's all in the styling -- taster's choice. For our money, the 2015 dramatically-styled Altima is much more attractive, with it's cutting-edge design and sculpted exterior. This is one sporty, luxurious sedan, no matter how you look at the Altima. The cabin is filled with luxurious appointments and quality materials. Interior features on the base Nissan Altima 2.5 include an Advanced Drive-Assist 4.3 inch display to give you warnings, show your calls and keep you focused on the road.
