If you ever had to pay to replace an LED headlight you’ll be glad this car has halogens. Still one of the best looking cars and a great value for the price.

I prefer the placing of blind spot indicators on the pillars, you see them all the time, they're inside and your view to it is not interrupted by weather and light reflections

I drove the 2020 SV for three years issue free. It’s just a nice car front to back and there were very few times I felt like I was driving a budget sedan. Recently upgraded to the 2023 SR with premium package and I really believe Nissan is back

I have a 2021 sv that’s black and exactly the same as that. I absolutely love this car! In fact I’m trading it in this week for a 2024 sv premium that’s fully loaded! I’m excited . Those heated seats are gonna come in handy!

Tastes differ: I don't like lane departure warning. I turned it off. I like where the blind spot monitoring is placed. It is easy for me to see. Also, I find it easy to push the button to open the car. My last car I had to have the key out. I find pushing the button so much more convenient. I also agree: I love the space in Nissan cars, and I love the gas mileage. I sometimes get 43.4 mpg on the expressway. I have the Kicks SV.

That Mall is so familiar. I think I lived near it once. IDK. You R right about the blind spot monitor. Our eyes go straight to the mirror not the A pillars. Nissan is doing some really nice things I just saw a review on the new Altima which is priced about the same as my Civic sport touring I recently bought. Kinda makes me wish I had at least drove one. Great review I'm going to subscribe and check out more videos. Thanks

@@sallyjb6209 First "mod" I'll be doing on my 23 Sentra is LED everything. I've put over 2k miles on my 23. The stock halogens are decent. LED are brighter and last much longer. The lack of DRL sucks compared to my 2014 Sonic, but not too expensive an upgrade. Overall, the CVT is smooth for sport/eco mode. A few upgrades I'd suggest and it would be a superior daily driver

CVTs have been getting better each year. I had a 2015 Subaru XV Crosstrek with CVT. Always felt like it was hunting for a gear, and somewhat jerky and slow from a stop light. OK when driving a constant 65 MPH on the highway. Next car was a 2018 Nissan Altima with CVT. Much better and unless you really jumped on the acceleration, it was pretty smooth. Under hard acceleration, it was jerky. Now have a 22 Nissan Altima with CVT. Vastly better. Feels like it shifts like a standard automatic, and frankly, if you drove it without knowing differently, you would say it was a normal automatic with shift points. Of course, the CVT gets great mileage also. Both Altima's got about 33 MPH in mixed driving and 39-40 MPH on the highway. Can't beat that! Also, great thing is that the Nissans do not have "Start Stop", which is one of the worst features ever put in cars. I like that you start the engine, and it stays running until I turn it off.

I am a motorcyclist from the desert southwest. I saved on fuel economy by riding. Didn’t need a car all year. Now I’m on the East Coast with thunderstorms. Don’t want to get soaked almost every evening commuting from work. Would you recommend this over a similar spec Elantra? The Civic and Corolla are probably better overall but too expensive. I just want to go from A to B. I like your reviews. No nonsense and make great points.

Unfortunately I haven't driven the newest version of the Elantra, so I can't speak intelligently on that. However I will say that this Sentra exceeded my expectations, and based on the MSRP I think it does present a very good value proposition. Maybe I'll try to get my hands on an Elantra soon to review one.

I mean your complaints are just very little things.

I'm not sure but I'd be careful with that because the steering wheel contains an airbag which is an important safety feature and potentially explosive if removed from the car and not handled properly. So I would say leave it alone.

No way, your Sentra get 20MPG, are you sure you did not leave it in "L" low gear all the time? It should get average 32MPG in worst case. Free way driving should get close to 40MPG depending on weather. Something is not right, so you should take it to a shop and have it look at

I have 2022 Pathfinder and Sentra. I looked deep into CVT issue before buying the Sentra. It appears the entire issue was related to using under temp rate fluid. This was burning up and burning up the CVT. Now the use a Inhemistu (hope I spelled that right) brand rate up to 165 degrees. I changed mine and went for the Castrol CVT/ATM swappable fluid rated at 200 degrees.

I love the new placement of the blind spot monitoring, it's inside and it give you quick visual notification when car's in your blind spot. Sorry, but I disagree and it is also personal option.
