    I drove our Almera from Marikina to Bagac Bataan and back. Very comfortable ride, fast and economical for a 1.5 engine. Average speed is 120kph to maximum of 190kph, from my computation fuel consumption is 13kpl.

    I also drove our Vios from the same place, Almera is way comfortable.

    Hi everyone! We're considering getting the base Almera A/T model. How is the performance and durability of the automatic tranny Almera for those who have owned it for a few months?

    Also, has anyone experienced the problems stated in this online petition regarding the Almera's wheel bearings and compressor fan?

    Petition * Nissan Almera car owners in the whole Malaysia who suffer the mentioned problems: Lifetime wheel bearings & aircond compressor fans replacement for Malaysia'''s Nissan Almera * Change.org

    i've read about that from the malaysia forums along with a host of other issues (warping plastic on the dashboard). Mine's just done 15k... so can't say for sure about the bearing issue. Not exactly a popular car :P

    ^ Thanks for the reply.

    Still considering the Almera to replace our 2011 Fiesta with DCT. Kapapalit lang last month ng transmission control module, this evening ayaw na uli magstart at may check engine warning sa dash

    I can live with the Almera's looks as long as it's a reliable vehicle.

    a lot of folks have had good experience with the previous sentra models since the mid-90s.
    if those previous models' build quality rubbed off on the almera, i imagine similar pleasant experiences with it.

    alas, i bought a used car instead, as no casa would guarantee EP on new car purchases.

    It's slower.



    Shift action is a bit rubbery. Power is nothing to write home about (performance feels just a bit sprightlier than my old 1.3 Lynx, but the car feels heavier than the Rio 1.2 or G4. Still a big car inside. Still comfy.

    I think it'd make a good Uber. Not sure about the economy, didn't drive it that far.

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    Finally drove the 1.5 with 4AT

    3rd gear 100kph around 4000rpm uphill

    I dont think it has vvti. Im not sure. It doesn't have the torque surge.

    suspension is very floaty

    Apologies, but what do you specifically mean by suspension is floaty? I am eyeing this as my daily ride with 2 teenagers on board. Tia

    The suspension being floaty means its soft for my specific roads. My average is speed is around 100kph thru open roads and curves.

    The Almera suspension I think fits the roads of Manila. It will soak in all the road imperfection like the once where trucks fly thru.

    a/c is hella strong for its segment.

    Now I'm a bit lost. I was really opting for the Almera 1.5 E AT priced at P762k (P702k if cash?). But when I told my friend and asked about his opinion, he said the car is okay, but he warned me that I might have problems with the spare parts in the future. I told him that the Almera is made here, but he still insisted.

    Before, I was also opting for Mirage G4 GLX CVT priced at P685K. But, I'm a bit concerned about the 1.2L 3-cyl engine & CVT tranny because we usually go to airport with 3 adults + driver + 3 toddlers. My brother's Honda City could easily handle that load, but with the G4, I'm a bit worried.

    I may just go with Vios in the end.

    kyb ph has a spring for the g4 that will help avoid bottoming out.

    the 1.2 is not strong but combined with a cvt, it is enough for everday use. not too many complaints in the fb groups. highly praised for its excellent fc.

    Thank you for this input. The thing is, I'm planning to keep this car as long as possible. God willing, maybe 10 to 15 years. So, I really have to get the unit with a good staying power without breaking too much on my wallet.

    So, baka G4 na rin talaga kunin ko para makatipid. At P685k, G4 GLX CVT is good enough for me na and also, it took me quite a while to convince my wife for us to have the G4 kasi first choice talaga niya eh Vios. Thank you.
