Well... on a personal note the Nissan Almera 1.0 is definitely better than it's rival Honda City in terms of specs. Technologies play an important role in a driving machine especially the Nissan GT-R was well established thru years. Whereby, it also has the GT-R technology in this Almera. That's worth investing already. But, beauty is in the eyes of beholder. I always believe that it served the needs for the potential buyers. Thanks Adrian for every of your efforts to review the new Nissan Almera as well as the comparison between the both cars. Well done Adrian. You're simply G. R. E. A. T. 👍

Actually i am currently using old almera myself, the previous model. i am using it for last 4 years, daily travel to work from Seremban to Kuchai KL. my mileage is around 150k already, so far no major repairs. only i have replaced the bearing this year, of course la every day 100km on the road. i abit like the car, its every relaxing to ride. i also tested the new city and almera. for me the choice is almera again. nice design compare city. the interior i like the most. ride also better than city. i actually dont mind of reseller value, if i am freak and have pocket full cash changing car every five year i whole be mind of reseller value but most driver using their car more 9-12 years before they going for sell the car. even if your using 12 year city wont much give you higher reseller value. so dont listen to freak who calling for reseller value. i am actually wanted x50 for my wife but i am changing my mind into almera 2021. good video thx.

Agree. But most people just put the 3 cylinder & no rear AC as a reason to not buy almera. Plus cheaper city price make people more interested in city. But what most people don't notice is city V is not much different if you compare it to the previous generation. City rs is the only variant that is a step up front the previous generation, but i think it's gonna price more then almera.

And many difference from the previous gen wasn't mentioned in all the medias, even they are minor or hard to tell. Then look at the New Almera, it is now priced at least RM10k more than its previous gen. Of course the New Almera will have big difference when Nissan is totally redesigning the Almera series and price it up.

@@icethelegend9396 that's my point. I don't say there is nothing good on new city but if you compare it to old city there is not much of a different. It's more like an update then an all new city. I am okay if this just an updated city but this is an all new, honda have to give something more from new generation car because the previous city is so good that it makes this new city looks like just an update in my eye. If i to choose between this 2 i will spend that 5k more for almera. In fact the mid spec almera is actually good enough because the only different is it don't have led headlight & 360 camera. I mean if honda don't play safe & gift a little more thing to the city v & bring the price up a bit more I'm gonna okay with it, but honda only give all the goodies to city rs. City V look so booring & basic. Only city rs attract me in city line up but i think the price will be more then almera. And this is just my opinion between this car, doesn't mean city is a bad car & you shouldn't buy it because i understand why people preffer city over almera especially because of the price.

Oh ya, I even forgotten it is a 3 cylinder engine! The suspension is also nice. Comfort and compose. But the streering is super light and no feel though. While the City... The meter cluster and outlooks doesn't works for me. I just don't get any feeling on it. Almera is my best in class choice for the current moment. Congratulations for the city!

@jessccy

Not really. It's just quicker cooling. Since you feel the direct wind effect. back to science, your skin & body hair detects the temp change, so when there is wind you cool down faster. I only think it's worth it if the blower is from the top/door pillar. Cooling my legs don't help when the heat is from the roof and glass windows. Better tints, or extra USB Fans can fix the problem. Better yet. Wind down the windows for quick cabin cooling. The rest, the front AC cooling coil will keep the temp low.
