    Looks much better inside and out than the Corolla. The CVT is much improved but the stigma of passed CVT problems lingers on.
    Nissan has to be aware this keeps a lot of potential buyers from even looking at the car in the first place.

      @@scott8238I believe that is the key with CVT’s is maintenance-fluid changes every 30,000 miles like it says too. I have owned 6 Mitsubishi all bought new and now 1 Nissan and they all came with a CVT produced by Jatco. My 3 Mitsubishi Mirages (2015, 2017, 2021) and my Nissan Kicks (2023) all use the Jatco CVT-7 unit with just different tuning between Nissan and Mitsubishi. The Jatco CVT-7 has been reliable overall. Our Mitsubishi Outlander Sport (2016) and our two Mitsubishi Eclipse Crosses (2019’s) also used Jatco CVT’s but a different model. Years back they had a tons of bugs with Jatco CVTs especially in Nissan but most all of the issues have been worked out. Alot of the issues you see are due to poor maintenance, running the car like crazy, or not changing the fluid every 30,000 miles like it says to.

    Yes Raiti! The price is why I love this car. While others complain about the CVT (which they fixed awhile ago) and it being a Nissan, I find this affordable, well packaged car to be a win. Nissan also ranks higher than Hyundai in reliability surveys, so they’re in a good ballpark. Also, the interior is very premium.

    I read enough about the improvements Nissan made to the CVT around 2017 that I bought a '22 Versa with it for my high school kid. I was willing to give it a try as both the Versa and Sentra knock out their competition in virtually every other category. Heck even ZF, the maker of some of the best transmissions in the world mucked up a bit a few years ago on their transverse 9-spd auto from about a decade ago. They had huge problems but then after a few years worked it out.

Last spring I recall going to my local Nissan and showing interest in a 2023 Sentra SR, white/w black roof. The price quotes they give me were insane. After a few minutes I got up and walked out!

Only wish Nissan offers a MT...like the Jetta GLI...basically I'm just looking for a lease, just a fun daily car. For long trip we use our family car. Anyone could chime in a this Sentra SR, please share your owner experienced.

    I really don’t like the facelift to be honest. The prior generation looked more eye catching in the front. Also, not having a digital gauge on a higher trim like the SR cheapens the interior

    • @fortheloveofnoise
      @fortheloveofnoise 10 месяцев назад +1

      Digital gauges cheapen the interior, it is cheaper to make digital screen gauges than actual analog gauges nowadays. They make it seem like it is such a luxury, but it is actually a downgrade. You don't need all those extra gimmicks in the screen, and even if you want them, just make them accessible in the central touch screen.
