Head-to-Head Comparison: 2008 Honda Accord Coupe vs. 2008 Nissan Altima Coupe
Honda vs. Nissan: Which builds a better coupe?
Rear Comfort, 2nd Place – 2008 Nissan Altima Coupe
Our trio of editors walked away from the Nissan Altima’s rear seat test grumpy and sore. One entry read, “Even worse to get into than the Honda, especially behind the driver’s seat. However, at least the lever to escape this people compactor is within reach.” Of all the notes taken, that could be considered the most glowing. We’re a relatively short bunch, so didn’t have any major issues with overall room, and we applaud the employment of an inboard release lever on the front passenger seat. But the Altima Coupe’s rear seat provided more of a challenge to get in and out of and was less comfortable than the Accord’s.
