Car Forum / Nissan / Nissan Cars / August 20052005 Altima 2.5 S in snow?
I'm thinking about getting a new Altima 2.5 S, and I'm wondering how they handle in snow and bad weather? Reviewers never talk about that. I live in the Philadelphia, PA area, and we don't get real harsh winters like the midwest, but we do get some snow and ice in the winter. Is the Altima notoriously bad in bad weather, adequate, or does it handle great? TIA 95% tires... 5% Altima Professor www.telstar-electronics.com > I'm thinking about getting a new Altima 2.5 S, and I'm wondering how > they handle in snow and bad weather?

Is the Altima notoriously bad in bad weather, adequate, or >>does it handle great? TIA I got an 05 in early January. I live on a hill in New England, and have a decent commute and I can say that I've had no troubles with it. Of course no car will get you to a safe stop if you're doing 50 on sheet ice! Why not Sentra, cheaper, PZEV (partially zero-emissions vehicle), save on gas and health, upgrade wheel rims and interior and still spend less $$ than altima fat pig > Why not Sentra, cheaper, PZEV (partially zero-emissions vehicle), save on > gas and health, upgrade wheel rims and interior and still spend less $$ > than altima fat pig Maybe he doesn't want to drive a buzzy tin shitbox? > I'm thinking about getting a new Altima 2.5 S, and I'm > wondering how [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > adequate, or > does it handle great? TIA Well it is a front wheel drive Nissan :wink: I think it shuld do all right in the winter time I got a Nissan Almera and a Primera both do very well in wintertime as long as you make sure you got good tiers. It isn't as good as a four wheel drive vehicle but I would say it is above average in the front wheel drive vehicles. > > I'm thinking about getting a new Altima 2.5 S, and I'm > > wondering how [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] > do very well in wintertime as long as you make sure you got good > tiers. > I'm thinking about getting a new Altima 2.5 S, and I'm wondering how > they handle in snow and bad weather?
