I agree with this great review ! 8 months ago I bought the 2023 Sentra SR with the manual transmission (orange) and for the price (just over $25k taxes extra) have been blown away. It’s peppy, frugal on gas and the seats are class leading. Side note: my neighbours are convinced it’s a $40k + car. No issues to report yet. So far, a winner! Btw, I based my purchase on your prior review of the Sentra so Thank You!

I think Andrea has it right that the black roof works particularly well on this car, at least with this great blue--greater than the sum of the parts alone...and that is not always the case. Similarly, just about everybody has a spoiler but the paint scheme and lip spoiler combo on this really picks it up. The whole look has this Sentra looking like it's in a different class.

Been driving only Nissan cars since 1980. When they were still Datsuns. Got well over 150,000 mile on each one selling them to private individuals prior to my next purchase. The only one I would classify as bad was a 2014, which had a major electrical manufacturer defect. The Nissan dealer took it back and put me in a 2016 SL Model, a major upgrade including 6 Bose speakers. Still driving it now with only 67,000 miles on it. Retirement saved mileage. Still looks brand new, and people comment on it all the time.

I’m with you Zack. I really don’t get why so many people dump on CVTs. They gripe about the lack of manuals but here’s the irony - even if manufacturers started putting manuals back in these kinds of vehicles (at least in the States), no one would buy them. That’s been proven over the decades. And CVTs today are so much better. I think complaining about CVTs is more of a national pastime than anything legitimate.

I bought a 2024 Sentra SV on May 30. I love it…great fun to drive, all the safety gear and at a great price. With the dual zone climate controls and heated seats the MSRP was just under $25K. My OTD price was $20,500 USD inclusive of 3% sales tax and $p689 dealer doc fee. I paid more in 2008 for a Ford Fusion with less equipment while working for a Ford dealer who sold me the Fusion for invoice less half of the holdback. The Sentra is an amazing value!

The transmission is the new CVT XS, it's meant to handle more power than the Altima makes so should be fine for the Sentra. It's adds a multiplate clutch and twin trans fluid pump. The pump pressure in the past had lead to failures due to overheating from slippage due to low pump pressure. Drawings also show 4 coolant lines in the newer units, 2 in 2 out to deal with heat better. This is the second revised cvt Nissan has released in recent years with Nissan techs stating massive reliability improvements from 2020 on. I researched for weeks before I decided to get a 2024 SV. I love the thing, it's comfortable, roomy, I can't make it get less than 40mpg and it'll do 45-46 per tank if I really try to baby it. My car was $20443 with Aspen white (pearl) tri coat paint and the all weather package (heated seats, leather wrapped heated wheel, heated mirrors,and remote start). First time I've really been stoked about the price I've paid for a new vehicle.

These are ALL excellent SEDANS - thank you for doing them. I looked at them all and it was really just a process of finding a dealer I felt was able and transparent enough to allow me to afford a car at that point. Nissan - I loved how the roof floats on the rear quarter panels - still very attractive, my brother said it was the car to get originally when I was looking (he loved his CVT in his old Caliber - so he did not understand my reluctance). Excellent mileage, I found with my Elantra .. my thinking was that if you drive the petrol-only model "wisely" you can get close to that hybrid mpg - BUT the hybrid you can drive it hard and still get excellent mpg. That was my thinking on it anyway.

You guys have the best videos. Love it how you guys are with each other. You guys are great. I love the new 2024 Nissan Sentra SR. I just purchased a brand new 2023 loaded top trim Nissan Kicks SR with Premium Package-Technology Package in October 2023. I absolutely love it and it is truly loaded for $26,000.00 (USA). As for the CVT you guys are so right. It feels like a traditional geared automatic transmission and simulates shifts almost identically. Its time people start to realize CVTs have vastly improved and are still improving. Our past 7 new vehicles since 2014 (model years 2015-2023) have all been Jatco CVTs and non have had issues. We changed the CVT fluid every 3 years or 30,000 miles whichever came first and no issues. Maintenance is a big thing as you know on CVTs and some people just dont do that then are surprised and upset when the CVT fails before 75,000 miles.

But I do agree yes a traditional automatic is definitely stronger and requires less maintenance.

Yeah the SR - Nissan here wanted me to go right to the SR, but I told them I felt the middle model with some option package as I recall was what I felt was inline with what I could afford. They had a metallic white middle model in their showroom and I went by the night before with my brother and said, it is supposed to be priced okay and the seats are special comfy ones apparently - should I go see them for harder pricing. So they told me they do not quote "price" just payments and I had to go through their finance office as credit effects that - said likely the SR is $20 to $30 more only if my credit is strong (but "payment" talk - ugh!).

I’m surprised to see that Nissan Sentra SR finally has a car worth considering stateside. I agree with everything you said about the car as well. As far as manuals go here in the states not enough people were buying them. As soon as they stopped manufacturing them the complaints are back. Problem is some cities you no sooner get to one red light & then there’s another. Constant shifting is annoying. I was Maryland trying to learn to drive a manual. My Cousin abandoned us. Luckily, my other cousin was better driving a manual. We eventually made it to our destination.

I have a love/hate relationship with this feature. I like that it saves gas and quiets the vehicle however there is a noticable "bump" sometimes and kind of hesitation when it engages. It's like you lose a single second and have a slower time from stop lights and the like. It also has a mind of it's own and you'll see it refuse to engage sometimes (auto in grey with the line through it), even though the driver is in what seems like perfect conditions for it.

I agree with the value. In our new Pricing environment here in Canada it is fairly priced. A naturally aspirated car with great fuel economy is attractive from a long term perspective. Might have long life potential with lower overall maintenance costs. My wife has a 2015 Murano Platinum and after almost 10 years it’s been cheap to maintain and very reliable. No issues with anything and my wife still likes driving it( we’re waiting for the new 2025 Murano to upgrade). I really enjoy your reviews and friendly husband, wife banter. I wish you could add a little segment based comparison of the stereos in the vehicles you review. I’m 52 and like a nice sounding stereo. My daughter is 16 and it’s important to her. It’s a factor in any vehicle I buy and is a reason why I upgraded f/ the 2024 SV to the Sr in our recent purchase. PS - We also own a 2022 Honda Civic Touring.

Daily. I own a Nissan. And I'm saying avoid the CVT if you can and if you can't, drain and fill the CVT often, not changing the filter because it's just there to catch metal shavings and if the filter is full, your transmission is already scrap. Drain and fill is pretty quick and easy (without changing the filter) if there are no leaks, measure what drains out and refill that amount with the manufacturers recommended CVT fluid.

I am a Nissan fan (prior Altima owner) and currently drive a 21 Jetta SEL-Premium...I love the ventilated seats in the Jetta, but my biggest grip is the coolant system in the vehicle...I live in the SW, and we have low 30s during the winter and over 120 in the summer....remote start will not work if the coolant levels are low, which is all the time in both now the winter and summer...for some reason, the coolant retracts during both climates, and it's just pretty disappointing. I have to go out and start my car manually as remote start senses the low levels and will not work... so I have to go out and turn the vehicle on and allow it to run for 5-10 minutes prior to driving... a great car when it works...but sadly, the Jetta will be my last.

Viewed video on 2/15/24 at 6:43 AM EST. Excellent video. I’ve always been a hard core manual fan and either owned or leased 14 Nissans divided equally between Altimas, and earlier, Maximas. All had/have V6 Z engines which was/is the primary reason I chose Nissan. When they dropped the manual for CVT, I missed the control in snowy road conditions but other than that, it’s been fine. I’m pleasantly surprised to see sales of compacts like the Sentra tick up. It’s affordable, good looking, with excellent sight lines and reliable.

What do you get? A somewhat slow commuter car, with very sporty styling on the inside. And a pretty good-looking exterior designed to not be offensive nor obnoxious. I like the steering wheel design, and the lack of obnoxious paddle shifters. There is a sport-mode, but ironically it tends to ever so slightly reduce 0-60mph. times. The SR trim should have a Turbo-charged option or should come with a turbo as standard. The Sentra is in an odd Middle of the Road place for Nissan. The Versa is slower, but quite a bit less expensive. With a better-looking front-end than the Sentra. Versa is actually the least expensive new car you can buy in America. Then you have the Altima. Which is bigger, roomier, and looks a lot like the Sentra. Gets a slightly more powerful engine option and can be had with All-Wheel Drive. Seriously, if Nissan quietly removed the Sentra from its line-up, few would notice. Even fewer would likely care. I personally like it, but it's been screaming for a turbo-charged engine option for literally more years than I can remember.

As usual the USA is denied a really great manual transmission in the Sentra! Many car magazines say the manual unit in the Sentra is one of the best manual transmissions in any model car today! Far superior to the manual gearbox in the smaller Versa model.

Without a 10yr/100k mile powertrain warranty, I won't touch another CVT-equipped Nissan after my experience with a new 2012 Versa SV sedan I bought. I really liked that little car, but the CVT started slipping at just 38k miles. I ended up trading the car in after just 2yrs to avoid paying for a new CVT out of pocket. It was over the mileage limit on the warranty. My experience is just another drop in the bucket for Nissan owners.

I've noted that the gas cap is on the passenger side, which means the driver has to pull into a gas station with the gas pump on the right, then walk around the back of the car to fuel up. Since most all other cars have gas caps on the driver side, this also puts you facing other vehicles at the pumps, and... away from driver's door for control/safety. I don't know, it just feels like it would be a pain, and more so after dark. JUST SAYING...

The 2023 has Sport Mode. Has the 2024 removed it? That's one of the best features of the car which is rarely mentioned. Yes, it does have a sporty feel. It's easy and fun to drive.

It's still there, just nobody knows it exists because it's not easily visible on the shifter, is only represented by a dash (no words), and then only a single S in the instrument panel. Even long time Nissan dealers do not know about it. It would be better if they just combined it with the Eco button and toggled through all modes instead.

@@stealthis The salesman at the first dealer I visited told me about the sport mode but I didn't use it. I ended up buying the car at another dealer and while I was test driving I asked salesman if there was a sport mode and he said "no". Later when I got home I got out the manual to see if it did. so I took it for a spin to try it and surprised how much more power there is, plus the suspension feels tighter. Now I wouldn't have known anything about a "sport mode" either had the salesman at the first dealer tell me. Thanks for your feedback. Appreciate it!

@@alvinsimba734 Oh yes. I live in the boonies without traffic and drive on the surface streets and highway a lot. No city driving unless I go to the city. I've managed to get about 34 mpg, but that's tops so far. Maybe if I slow it down to 55 mph, and put it in Eco Drive instead of Sport Mode, I might get even better mileage. Haven't tried it yet, but will next time. (Years ago it was said if you stay below 55 mph, you save gas. In Los Angeles, back around 1975, we had "gas rationing" and the speed limit on the freeway was 55 mph!) Let's see what happens.
