How reliable is a Nissan Altima?

Will a Nissan Altima last me through high school and college? I found one from 2018 that’s really affordable, but I need a car that can last for a while so that I can make it through school.

The short answer isyes, the
Nissan Altima
should last you through school! Nissan Altimas tend to have average reliability. The 2018 model can last between 250,000 and 300,000 miles, which averages out to about 10 to 15 years.
Nissan Altimas have another advantage, too: their average annual cost of ownership is low. Owning a Nissan Altima costs the average person $483 per year, making it a very affordable option for your time at school.
When you own a car, you also need car insurance! Luckily, the
