I have a 2012 Nissan Sentra S with over 187,000 miles on it. Never had an issue with the original CVT. I changed the fluid every 60,000 miles as required in the owner’s manual. Nissan is capable to be reliable as Toyota and Honda. You haters should learn how to read a manual and drive a car properly and you won’t have any problems long term.
I changed the fluid at 60k on my 2010 Nissan Sentra SR. Still going strong. I don't have but a little under 70k on it though, but it is 10 years old. So I am going to have it for a very long time!
I love people commenting that they'll consider buying one if Nissan drops the CVT knowing first and foremost they're not even in the market for a compact car. Secondly, it's the class standard and Nissan knows the standard buyer will not care what transmission it has. Third, half of the people complaining of the transmission are just clones from the internet echoing words that they never said themselves
Seems like a great car. Improvement in everything over previous. CVT behaves well. Maybe a touch slow off the line, but at this price point it’s great. Everyone thinks if car can’t do 0-60 in under 6 seconds it’s “slow”.
If Nissan would get rid of the CVT the car would be good Nissan 4 bangers have had a decent reliability rating besides the older QR25DE now that was updated there all pretty decent.
LOL. I drive a Nissan 350z and have no problem admitting that their CVTs like to break at around 80k miles. Its not a good look for Nissan. I hear that their newer ones should last longer, but only time will tell. The damage to their reputation is going to take a long time to fix either way.
I don’t understand people in these comments complaining about the CVT so much. It’s an economy car it’s only purpose is to get you from point A to B with good fuel mileage lol. I just bought a 2021 Sentra SV and it’s a great car. If you don’t like the CVT then buy a premium car that uses a traditional automatic transmission. This is a car you can get into for dirt cheap, and guess what it’s all under warranty so relax. Everyone is an auto mechanic because nissan had transmission issues 10 years ago, and if they are so shitty why do I still see hundreds in the road?
True I have a 2012 Altima with 237,000 miles and have never changed the cvt fluid and she still running strong til today..so maybe all about how you drive it🤷♂️
It seems like premium compact cars are getting far and few between. Buick discontinued their Verano and Nissan it seems doesn't offer the SL trim in this car. Ford or Chrysler don't offer any compact sedans. Your choices are Mazda, Toyota, or Honda. Hyundai's Elantra was a higher class vehicle that's been taken down a notch.
Nissan has always made great engines. They’re only problem is the cvt and Renault alliance. In 2021 they’re making a new frontier. But for 2020, the frontier will get a 9 speed automatic still with manual option, Nd a new 3.8 v6 with 310 hp.
If Nissan wants to move on from Carlos Ghosn, it must also move on from CVTs. It was on his watch that Nissan dove head-first into CVT “technology” and their “benefits”. I think it’s safe to say that they’ve more than worn out their welcome and have largely contributed to Nissan’s downward spiral.
Superbe véhicule mais en France, ce type de carrosserie ne se vendent pas bien. Je regarde souvent vos vidéos car nous journalistes ne le font jamais sous ce format !!
The acceleration run from 0-60 is screwed up because after the panic stop Nissan cvt takes a moment 2 get moving again as you can see in the video. Acceleration test wouldve been a bit better.
occckid123 very true I forgot about that...That’s only happened to me once. Slammed on them to stop at a light, even after sitting through the light it still was in that mode. Ever since then 30k miles ago lol I don’t do it anymore I just floor it instead.
Yeah because they trying to fool people into thinking the cvt doesn't rev high when you get up to speed. The 1k marker is that mark between the 0 and the 2.They missed the 500, 1k and 1.5k markings. Nissan trying to be slick on this one and the Altima too smh
ForevaLaTrelle A CVT stands for Continuously Variable Transmission and no one likes it in Nissan because they’ve had a lot of reliability issues with it breaking down.
Please do the Camry TRD! Please enough with the Nissans! I get it already! I'm sick of hearing the CVT! If you want to do a titen fine, but I am so sick of these CVT Transmissions

Actually mine has lasted to 218,000. It makes whining sound at high revs but still going strong and my car is a 2008
Total deal breaker for me. Mazda is my choice.

I loved the asmr experience from the car, good job
Good review & great Sentra.
Gonna join majority of comments - very nice car overall, if not damn cvt that will break in 100k miles
When we had our 2012 Juke, our CVT started braking at 75000 miles, what a gay car! gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay!

OMG His Da Hottest Car I Ever Seen Man I Rather Get This 2020 Sentra As A New Driver !
A Nismo version with a turbo and manual transmission would be pretty enticing.

Ford or Chrysler don't offer any compact sedans. Your choices are Mazda, Toyota, or Honda. Hyundai's Elantra was a higher class vehicle that's been taken down a notch.
Elantra with the limited trim is very nice for what you pay. Mazda 3 Grand touring or Civic touring are probably the best premium compacts.
The sentra has an even nicer platinum trim with quilted leather

Yeah, at least they should ditch jatco and find a more reliable manufacturer. Other companies have more reliable cvt’s like Toyota and Subaru
The new Frontier has a 9 speed auto, hopefully it will go into their entire lineup and the reliability gets better.
@@dominicancheif117 Nissan owns JATCO, they aren't going anywhere.
Great review.
This’ll be popular with rental companies
Very cool video
Nice car nice driving.
Nice colour!
Well what do you guys expect, it’s a Nissan. They use cvts in almost all their cars.
The corolla and civic also do so its not unique in that regard
Nissan get with the program, your CVT is what is holding you back from being a top contender once again in the auto industry. Wake up!
Nice looking car, HORRIBLE CVT
Is it just me or is the turn signal strangely slow compared to any other Nissan product
Connecticut Dashcam I’ve noticed the same thing.

Brake torque Cvt = Big No No
it does nothing to the cvt. brake torquing spools up the torque converter.
Nissan is pretty retarded

Looks nice. Sadly i dont know but the ride sounds grainy. Hows the NVH?
I like this
It's really pretty but I don't want to risk buying one when their CVT problems are still around.
Lease it.
Am I the only one that noticed that the rpm gauge does not have a 1K marker. It goes 0,2,3,4,5. ???? Strange

Thank god european car makes dont really build cars with cvt, I just hate that transmission type so much
it just feels clunky in some cars. Some companies use it well in some cars.
Nissan Doesnt.
@@lordmeme_ I just dislike that transmission type in general I just want proper gear changes either with a manual or a dual clutch/normal automatic
Renault, Peugeot, Fiat, all European. All have at least one car with a CVT.
@@dillonh321 Well okay then at least no premium european car has CVT
Has anyone noticed that nissan is getting rid of the "1" in the tachometer? does it even make sense? :O
How high is the car off the ground, meaning how much ground clearance?
It's the power to weight ratio comparable to a Altima 2.5 l
No it weighs almost as much as the altima but has over 30hp less. The altima will smoke this.
I like it
👍👍👍👍👍👍
If only manufacturers would ditch the cvt. Nissan being the worst. Their cars look great inside and out, comfortable, but the cvt is a big turn off.
Can you campare between altis and sentra which one is the best driving feeling
Nissan have a lot of haters!! Coming from a nissan fan!!
could you also drive sporty cars on a racetrack?
I buy one if they get the CVT shit out of there

Nice car but CVT completely ruins the Car
What's the problem with cvt? It's more economical and feels smoother.

I drove one of these recently. Truly a garbage vehicle. HORRIBLE transmission. Nissan keeps making shit cars.
I wanted to like the new Sentra, nope. I don't even think it looks good to be honest. Nissan needs to wake up from their nap.
Compared to the previous two generations, it looks fantastic...
j-Tube I agree but Nissan needs to start benchmarking their competition and not themselves in not only design but every category.
