- Hafriz Shah reviews the new Nissan Almera Turbo to see if the B-segment sedan is a better buy than the Honda City and Toyota Vios. 1.0 turbo performance, pros, cons, driving dynamics, all covered in this in-depth video.
Full details and gallery: bit.ly/Nissan-A...
Got mine just before Christmas. Rides really well, extremely quiet, and very fuel efficient. You know its a good car when Hafiz spends nearly 30 minutes on it hahaha
gratz...how is it so far, in terms of vibration when idling, etc? i have no chance to test it out yet in kuching.
U can feel the vibrations a bit when in idle. But not very obvious. On the move, you hardly feel it. Very fuel efficient, hit 23 km per litre on a recent 120km trip.
@@gordonnicolaus2921
My VW Jetta 1.4l turbo only hit 15km to 17km on highway as it weighs 1.4 tons.
@@galaxymetta5974 that's already quite good for a 1.4 tonne car. The Almera is just a touch above 1.1 tonnes, and that definitely helps with fuel consumption as there is less weight to lug around
Hi Gordon. How about the Nissan after-sales svc? Is it good?
This new Almera ticks most of the boxes for a comfortable and safe city car, more so than the Vios and City.
Nope not yet as Tan Chong is still there for shit aftersales service. Love the car tho
“It went to the ugliest to the best looking sedan....”
Old Almera owners: 😭
1998 almera owner here and I think the N15 looks very pretty
sabar jer lah bro
True... 🤦🏼♂️
Subjective, for me old almera still looks ok.
This comment cought me off guard, lol!
Dah tgok tiga2 depan2.... Nissan paling lawa, city paling kureng(n sekilas pandang kadang nmpk mcm saga) haha
Betoi
Received mine yesterday. I'm very much satisfied and enjoy all of its features. Nevertheless, the vibration during idle does bother a bit, especially when you're used to driving a larger CC, 4 cylinder engine car. But if you don't think about it, you actually don't realize that much. I'm pretty sure eventually i'll get used to it. Other than that, its been a wonderful drive and met all my expectations. It's an allrounder, comfort, and sustainable car. I'm happy with the decision made.
Test drove it few days ago, the only thing that bothers me is the vibration when idling but overall is a good first impression. Nonetheless, i'll proceed with booking bcoz it ticks all the boxes-spacious, fuel economy, better looks than the city and vios
Nissan almera the same engine as Logan III dan dacia sandero..
HR10DDT / HRA1 / Renault H5Dt
It is renault engine.
I’m 26 this year and currently driving my retired dad’s 2008 Camry to work everyday over the last few years. He said, “if you want to buy a new car, get something better than my Camry”. This Almera might be it hahaha
Camry still better. Cherish it
D segment vs B segment, like compare Accord to City or Camry to vios.
Saya Penggemar Nissan... Di Indonesia, Nissan Almera digunakan oleh Polisi Sektor di Kota Yogyakarta, yang digunakan oleh pengguna Umum tidak ada. Yang Almera versi Turbo ini nampaknya juga tidak akan masuk di pasar Umum Otomotif Indonesia..
Ada om yg pakai umum... dulu sempat dijual terbatas sama nissan karena gak habis dibeli sama perusahaan taksi. Sekarang yg jadi taksi juga sudah pada pensiun dan dijual ke umum...
I would definitely go for this one if I'm in the market for the B segment sedan! This car is mechanically more advanced than Vios or the City!
Agree bought mine in December and really enjoyed it
@@chinhowlim1363 how's your one year review?
How about the back aircon ventilation?
@@chinhowlim1363 how's your ride? Give a review please
@@muhdmat8454 they just try to boost the sales. 2022/12 now see, not many people buy it. I only see less than 3 while city more than 10.
tukar tayar 17 inch, spoiler skit, buat wrap kaler merah hitam perghhhh merecik gaiss
ada gambar x bro?
Very genuine and unbiased review Mr. Hafriz 👍
Yes... absolutely right. I’m already have one vlt spec in black colour
Perfomance like 0-60 or lap time not things that we really concerned for any b-segment car..most important is good to drive and safety features..for me almera has better design than any other b segment..i choose almera anyway..huhu
Hello Hafriz, I have one now top model for my daughter and agreed the white leather worry for its naturally gets dirty however I am not bother because it can be clean and maintain with relevant leather cleaner. Interior is totally big love for me compared to previous Almera and Latio.Overall Love this car in driving , quality looks, handling, good finishing. How I wish this car power to 110-120ps to get more fun.
It's a turbo car, in theory you could send the ECU to be tuned to upgrade its horsepower a little bit
Looks good. Hope it helps to revives Nissan. Great delivery by Hafriz too.
Thanks!
Manual handbrake is better than an electronic one
What wrong with electronic Park brake?
Nissan almera ini sama engine Logan III dan dacia sandero..
HR10DDT / HRA1 / Renault H5Dt
It is renault engine.
i can't unsee 6:41...
the dimension of the new Almera is so close to a C segment now...it sits well on the road...and it doesn't have that narrow look of the Vios...
one suggestion I like to see is , is to start the video with the driving impression first then u start with the other aspects ..bcos of the long nature of the video, waiting for the actual driving impression takes kinda long , but then again...!
yeah, the new almera looked mature & grown up unlike its competitor which i feel its trying too hard to be sporty for a B-segment family sedan
Good honest review..hope nissan will take note on all the comments
👍👍👍
I hear this is the car for singles but the city is the car for a family
Almera turbo 1.0 advance in technology very good road handling with power performance
After watching this review, I am very proud to say that I chose Toyota Yaris 2021
Why?
27:13 thank you for mentioning that up! Hahaha
as usual love ur style brader "mat bunga" 😄
Thanks bro 🤣
Drove mine for 15k+ km so far and I drive 160-180 on the highway if there are little cars, the handling at that speed is pretty shaky from the driver's side, you could actually feel the need to control the steering wheel much harder but I guess this applies to most cars. However, even going at 110km/h on the highway, the sound is just crazy loud. Even higher than that and the wind/road sounds even surpasses the music that has been turned up to 60%. Pretty meh on the highway but great at cities / towns, but it definitely took a huge leap forward from the previous generation and the Honda Cities
How does it compare to the Vios?
So you think it’s better than city?
I guess all low cars are as Noisy , I own Vios and it's noisy when driving speed 80-100 even with Conti CCS6 noisy tyre compare with Michelin
120kmh plus on jazz also youll feel like on trampoline bro
Dah tengok kereta ni depan mata. sangat cantik terutamanya pandangan dari depan dan tepi. Belakang bahagian bawah bumper nissan almera agak kurang sikit.. kalau honda city cantik dilihat dari depan dan belakang kalau dari tepi macam kureng sikit..
Unfortunately there still no air vent in the rear . Hope in the facelift model tcm will add on
i think i should online transfer to hafriz when i buy this car. he explains everything in detail compared to my clueless SA.
Owns an almera and loving it
Thanks Hafriz for a very good and nalanced commentary!
TQ for this nice review, will make booking in 2 days time 😍🍊
Great review Hafriz...👍 Would you recommend this car for kampung area?
from producing furniture (almari) to a proper car (almera), Well Done Nissan !!
Almari?🤭🤭 I think the name of 'almari' is more better than Honda Dugong, Toyota Adudu, and kereta sampan😅😅
Been waiting this review from PaulTan
Are nissan cars durable and reliable? How does it compare to other Japanese cars?
Yes...durable...engine reliable n durable...my almera (2014) with 240,000km still smooth without single problem...
nissan is good at high perfomance turbo engine.
My nissan latio 2008 but it second hand still no major problem or engine
Great review but don't mind me asking an out of topic question, what is the background song used starting from 5:51?
My CRV 1.5T also have same idle vibration which is annoying. It doesn't happened in CX5
why would you need an air-cond for your knee ?
Need to compare it to the Honda City RS first to be sure which choice is the better one.
Its hard to compare with RS unless Nissan Almera uses the same type of electric support like E-Power which have in Nissan Kicks. You can compare to non hybrid version in terms of power and handling.
Sesiapa yg dah beli kereta ni, bole share x aircon utk passenger blkg? Adakah aircon sejuk sampi ke blkg? Sbb berdasarkan review ni xde aircon ventilation di blkg.
Air cond sejuk, rasa sampai belakang. Tiada masalah 👍🏻
Xde masalah. Aircond dkt tgh dh ckup utk penumpang belakang.
Dah beli ker
Looking forward for a review on new vios as well!
Hope it will be available in the Philippines Soon.
Me personally, I would go for a standard variant Proton X70 over the highest spec City, Vios or Almera. Price is almost the same. But if you still want a B-segment sedan then I think this Almera is the way to go.
X70 is a heavy suv and a petrol guzzler compared to Almera good fuel consumption.
But cup maintenance will be different , tyre is more expensive too ..... Alot of ppl thought that , some even upgrade from myvi to top range x70 den jz realized that each of the 19 inch tyre cost them RM660 , so they decide to opt for China tyre lolx
An Almera or an Ativa? Help! 😭
Almera is worth than ativa
god i really cant imagine why honda put the infotainment screen unevenly n yes it’s awkward 🤣 this way better
This car looks great wish we got this in Europe as a 2nd body option for the Micra
This car has idle stop/start function? You won't feel the vibrations then because the engine will be off.
สเปคมาเลเซียได้เป็นเบาะหนัง หรือเบาะผ้าครับ และเบาะตอนหลังมี Armrest มั้ยครับ
The most expensive b segment car is mazda 2,not this Nissan almera
Yup, that's what Hafriz said. Mazda 2 is the most expensive.
Most expensive because of CBU
i owned a mazda 2 (gen 1) with full skirting for about RM90k otr, before the LED DRL (gen 2) version. if i am looking for a car right now, i will probably will not considering the mazda 2 because its pretty expensive. I prefer the seats on mine with the red stitching then the latest model .
Gotta respect the difference of almera has changed, but yet i still feel confident, safe and stylish to vios and city and i really really love the GR-Vios.
normally around 20 km/l for mostly highway. best so far 22 km/l
i did 26km/l in city area..
Far more better than lousy Vios and City.
Hopefully this would be my first car. 🙏🙏
Any variant comes with paddle shifters or + - manual?
Is this sane with almera 2021 in the Philippines?
Best save fuel consumption sedan~
Almera vlt and honda city v sensing which one better
If 4 adults sits in the Almera, will it even be able to push forward effortlessly? Or perhaps a small hill climb?
Even Kancil can climb up the hill with 4 people which released 20 years ago, things have change a lot, why Honda using 1.5T for big fat Accord?
Can you guys make an review of almera vios and city just like before? Like the driven
Why radios did not have RDS anymore? The arm rest looks like a bicycle seat, the key is boring, the semi info display with straight separator with the analog dial is ugly .. erm no dash cam too....
A class sedan economy version
Screen tu x support android langsung ke???
Almera or Vento in terms of ride and handling ?
Vento of course! European vs asian handling (except mazda handling which is on par with European marque)
I think Almera is a better all-rounder as compare to Vento.
Almera's handling might not as sharp as Vento, power is less than Vento. but it's really nice to drive, composed at the highway, very well-control in the corner, better NVH when accelerating, and has significant bigger cabin space.
Test drive both cars yourself, and you know which ones suit your appetite :)
But if you really like the Vento, maybe you can wait for the next generation model ya
Personally, I much prefer the Almera.
Vento owner here.
Almera is more comfort, handle pothholes much better, quieter tyres rolling sound. Basically a more comfortable car for family.
While Vento stiffer suspension is having better handling and less bodyroll when cornering. The low profile tyres and stiff suspension really makes pothholes a nightmare when you're driving with speed.
Almera is a better all rounder in my opinion. Noted that the NVH of Almera just simply impressive, conti car level, it's a much better family car.
But Vento is more engaging to drive and more fun. The DSG is just so much nicer to drive. Not in low speed though, it jerks sometimes.
Conclusion. Vento is nicer to drive (TSI+DSG). Other than that, Almera is a better car.
Con is VW spare parts are more expensive with lower resale value. But VW is fun to drive with more solid protective shell. From owner of 2015 vw Jetta 1.4T.
compare to vios and city, this is really nice design. beautiful...
New Vios Facelift is also looks good at least with updated design which is very handsome
Vios the only b segment has led headlamps across the range.
i think the almera has the best look. interior is also nice.
i do agree, new city looks mehh..but i think with some bodykit will boost up the looks, but almera if with bodykit, sport rim..more ummph i think..
@@emilylimsl9884 vios interior design sucks... eg. design for button at the steering like someone who just learn AutoCAD...
in term of looks, Almera>vios>city. city look so ugly idk why
City looks ugly because of so many honda fan boys driving it, with sticking rs emblem everywhere
*Still CVT?? forget it. The should hv ditched the problematic cvt and revert back to the good ol reliable single clutch auto transmission*
This isn't hybrid right? The Nissan Note E-power should be more powerful than this
Why no one is covering the new Honda City V-Sensing? It comes with full suite of Honda Sensing at Rm90000, hands down the most complete B segment at the moment
Thank God some old folks from TCM has already decide to retire. Now that is car that will have people buying.
Hopefully there's a review about 2021 vios soon.
is this coming in the philippines?
Why the front boot is designed that way? They could just open the whole thing until the grill. Yet they cut is somewhat in a weird ugly position?
Look is subjective to everyone. Why not u go for interview as Nissan designer?
Vios facelift has a good proportion design from rear to the front and also got sportier look. Btw Vios the only B segment has LED headlamp across the range.
1.0 turbo.. its like giving steroid injection on a baby.
Most expensive in its segment, but no rear aircond vent. Come on
Well, in a very crowded class of (let's face it) terrible cars..at least they got this one right in terms of styling ✔
That white interior including the seat is a major deal breaker for some
I kindda luv this car...
Wonder wanna take dark metal grey or orange
ya.. i have the dilemma
@@arenaradamansara8745 finally took orange cause dark grey had out of stock
@@RockNRollAlex93 hows the car so far after few months?
I find the D-Step Logic on the CVT (and other similar systems) which simulate gear shifts a little annoying, as power is lost when the revs drop to simulate the shift. Other than that, it looks quite competitive for the features it comes with.
i wonder why they need to try to mimic the behavior of a torque converter gearbox. mayb for fuel saving or other reasons? if the gearshift feels is so important, why not just use a good torque converter gearbox. just my 2 cents opinion
I don't find it annoying at all. Because it revs up and down the range, it avoids that rubber band effect most CVTs suffer from.
@@hafrizshah4937 regular drivers will never know and don't bother as long as the transmission is smooth. I for one do not like cvt but i have to say subaru cvt is pretty good
@@hafrizshah4937 I like the idea that the CVT is always engaged in the correct gearing ratio all the time and don't mind the rubber band feeling. Maybe car manufacturers can allow users to select whether they want a stepped gearchange or a continuously variable gearchange.
@@fhblee anyway, kalu reliable takpe
Hafris tak bias. Tbaek macha

The styling looks dope.. but 1ltr engine?
What a shame that little engine, such a fine looking car could have been on top of my list if it had a decent engine.
yes it's 1 Liter only. but it got Turbo for speed and decent pickup. and it's also fuel effiecient. quite a good trade off
This car is not for speed, 1.0L turbo = 1.3L/1.5L NA
Better get 1.5L NA and don't need to maintain the turbo(expensive oil change) and the famous Nissan Jatco CVT transmission it is no no for long term. I know how bad the old one. Nissan should focus more on quality not performance.
Can't wait to see how many people change thier key housing to gtr ver. 🤣
Should you be wearing mask? You're far away from anyone else.
I can see many will stick GT-R sticker or Skyline emblem.
Same like many honda fan boys with sooo..many fake rs, type r emblem everywhere in city or civic
I want to see it myself..
Oops, there's no point to upgrade to save. Price is crazy
Please review city v
I will 👍
@@hafrizshah4937 hi..can you please review The BMW 218i gran coupé? Thanks
The size (W x L x H) is smaller than Honda city. I prefer bigger and cheaper Japanese car.
I am agree new Almera is better
Still no one buy this car yet here in JB.. More new City than the new Almera
i would buy this new almera.. if nissan would change the name.. i was stuck with the old almera image in my brain, i now would want to vomit.. cannot brain la haiyaaa
but... is not a better car than a honda or a toyota even though the new ones from honda and toyota now days have lower quality for each year now. nissan now days are much worse quality. lol people saying the older almera is ugly i own a almera from 2006 i don't think those are ugly. i think the new ones are lol. my version from 2006 might have an issue in the future with the timing chain but currently it is running smoothly with no issues. it's engine is very simple so changing it myself would not be too hard. But i don't think buying a new nissan now is a good idea, it might be better to lease one if you absolutely have to get one. 18:00 Im sorry but you are probably not aware of is that the automatic transmission with a CVT from nissan is the worst in history lol. its excellent when it works but don't do burnouts or do any kinds of towing. and the cooling system for the transmission is also an issue on some models. but i could always be wrong because this is a newer transmission. so only time will tell if this is a better one :)
Should also bring micra .. hatchback version of almera
Or should also bring Nissan Note to here as well
Best looking? Come on, you know it’s subjective right?
Ikr. I prefer City interior than Almeira. Almeira looks boring to me.
@8:44 that's what she said
Had 2 models before.: Sentra and Sylphy. No way I am going to that TCEAS shithole.
Are nissan cars durable and reliable like other Japanese cars?
Why? Is it bcoz of it’s after sales svc? Mind to elaborate more?
nice watch
Repeating so many times compared to the city. Well thr is rumours abt the relationship v H...looks lk is true aft watched this review
