Is the Nissan Almera a good car?
The Almera is a nameplate that has been with us since 2001 in South Africa and has enjoyed much success in both the private sector and in fleet and rental agencies. While the second generation saw sales slow, the most recent update t it helped revitalize its presence.
Who is the Nissan Almera a good car for?
If you're a traditional motorist and one that can appreciate the sedan format, the Almera will tick many of the boxes you're looking for. A generous boot and ample cabin space make it a practical vehicle for those that don't require the high-riding approach that SUVs offer.
Is the Nissan Almera a good first car?
The affordable nature of the Nissan Almera makes it appealing to first-time car buyers. If you're a little less experienced, the size of the Almera may initially be intimidating but one will soon come to appreciate what the Almera has to offer.
Is the Nissan Almera a good family car?
The Almera makes a great family car and is cost-effective to run, offers ample seating for both adults and children and has a 490-litre boot to ensure that no luggage gets left behind. It has 2 airbags and ISOFIX child seat mounting anchors.
Is there a Hybrid Nissan Almera?
The Almera is only available with a single engine option, that of the 1.5-litre 4-cylinder petrol engine with no hybrid option available.

What’s it like to drive?
Reviewer's opinion
"On the inside, a more welcoming atmosphere has been created thanks to new seat fabric with contrasting stitching, and an updated fascia with a new audio system design and classier air conditioning controls. Class-leading rear legroom and the Almera’s massive 490-litre boot remain in place."

What is the Nissan Almera like inside?
The interior of the Almera is a simple affair with logical controls and limited switchgear. This ensures that operation is simple and easy to learn, making it less complex for those that may be overwhelmed by the features of more modern offerings. The cloth upholstery is durable and hard-wearing and most surfaces are pleasant to the touch.
Style
Never one that was lauded for its design, the Almera takes the traditional three-box design approach and rounds off the corners for a more fluid overall shape. Large headlights and a deep V-shaped grille characterise the front end while the rear combination lamps mimic the design of the headlights.
