LUV my Nissan Sentra…for good reasons!

I’ve owned a lot of different cars, makes and models over the years, but never a Nissan. Read pro reviews on this model, checked it out anyway. Bought it new a month + ago. Really love everything about my Sentra relative to the pricing for my SV…tremendous value. Why? This car delivers (for its size, class, price) great styling, ride, handling, quiet, plenty of the power one needs for standard driving, great seats, interior design and ergonomics, dash readout just right mix of standard and electronics, excellent touchscreen display. Love it!

I love the sporty look and all the features! Remote start, heated seats and wheel, automatic temp set, lots of safety features, even shows the speed limit of where you’re driving. Nitrogen in the tires, door edge protector strips… I love this car,

I am all for being excessively critical but there is nothing "wrong" with this car. Every feature advertised is implemented in a way that works. What you see is exactly what you get, and what you see is a sexy compact Sedan with a competitive features package at this price point.

Almost Hybrid MPG

I have owned my 2023 Sentra for 14 months now. I love it. 22,000 miles on it and I am averaging 40 mpg. Yes, averaging 40. I drive this 70 miles per day mostly on the freeway. Plus I drive it kindly ,not hard, so it has rewarded me. Today, I got 50.1 mpg on my 35 mile drive to work. It is comfortable, quiet, and smooth. I can accelerate from a stoplight and not go above 2200 rpms and keep up with traffic. It has enough power to go up an on-ramp to the freeway and get to 70 mpg well before merging. That is enough power for me. I've had no issues with the car. My complaints are minor. The automatic lights are too sensitive. Sometimes the CVT doesn't know where the sweet spot is when going 25-30mpg (in the neighborhood). I can feel it figuring out the correct ratio. It's a very minor thing that I only feel occasionally. I don't notice it at any other speed. The cool thing is that I can use the pedal to get the exact torque ratio to "coast" at 25 mph for over 1/2 mile. I wish Nissan would have put soft materials on the back doors like they have on the front. Heck, even my 2005 Elantra has better amenities in the back! But, I will say that the back seats are extremely comfortable. Better than most I've sat in. I love the interior design and the exterior is the best looking of all the compact cars.

I wanted something that looks sporty with great mileage I found it. I drove hundreds of cars and this one here turned out to be my favorite. One thing about this car you need to know right away it only brkes for traffic when you have the progressive cruise control on. The front emergency stop only works for pedestrians. The rear will stop for pedestrians or anything else. The Toyota Corolla did not have enough room in the backseat for a 6 ft tall person to sit up straight. The Honda Accord and Civic along with the Malibu or the cruise have a 1.5 liter engine. They had a turbo charger on them to make up for performance. It has a cost. The turbochargers are prematurely failing or the valves for them. They are are causing diluting of the engine oil with gasoline now.. Turbochargers only belong on the larger diesels with high compression.. if I had to do it all over again I would buy another one I'm very happy with it the only problem I have is getting out and in.. hopefully this information helps people looking have a good day...
