Size and Handling
The Accord has a slightly larger frame compared to Altima, allowing it more space for passengers and area for cargo, making it the more ideal model for longer trips. In comparison, the smaller base for the Altima enables it to more easily handle tight corners or smaller space when driving around the city or more tightly-knit neighborhoods like in South Gate.
Style and Comfort
Both models have the sportier frames common amongst sedans, although the Altima has a few extra design details that make it stand out, such as painted alloy wheels and an optional sunroof. These features are also available in the Accord, but are usually restricted to higher-level trim levels. There is a similar difference between some of the Altima’s more comfortable amenities, which are optional to the base trim levels while primarily only available to the Accord at higher levels. Some of these features include parking assistance traits, for helping you back in or out with reduced visibility, and integrated navigation systems to help you explore unfamiliar locales, such as when commuting in Los Angeles County.
