Which one will be good for a new driver forte or Sentra?
@@yoo-xh8iv either one would be great 👍
@@CarConfections how you feel.about the Honda civic is the civic faster then them both or they bout the same
After 10 years and 160k miles, my 2014 Nissan Sentra SR finally gave me transmission problems. Although Nissan is said to have reliability issues, if you maintain your car properly, it should last 150k-200k miles.
That's nice to know. I have a 2023 Kicks.
Did you change the CVT fluid at 96,000 miles as indicated in the manual?
That all changed after 2020
@@Jan96106you should be good these are problems of the last generation and not the newer models 2015 was the worst year
Except when you have a Toyota. They last like 500k miles. Just don't buy anything outside of Toyota and Honda. Especially Nissans 🤮
Purchased our 15 year old daughter a used Ford Escape 2014 which was very nice. Wanted her to learn to drive on the vehicle she was going to drive. It had some recalls that were a couple years old so took it in and had recalls done at a local Ford dealership. After started having issues with the coolant system and that was one of the recalls and was told the repairs could cost a lot of money. Decided to trade it before got bad so on January 1, 2022 went to a Nissan dealership and traded it for a new 2022 Nissan Sentra SV. Back then stock was low and reason traded for a new vehicle was because a used one was more expensive. When went to test drive did not expect much for the price but was very pleasantly surprised. Got a lot for the money and rode a drove way above my expectations. Still would have it except she got rear ended by another young driver a few months back. So with insurance pay out went back to Nissan dealer and ended up with a new 2023 Nissan Alitma SR. Lot of vehicle for the price once again. Loved both of these cars so when my 2020 Chevrolet Silverado stated giving me a lot of engine problems with only 19,000 miles decided to dump it and went to trade for a new 2023 Titan Midnight Edition. Moved and really didn't need a truck anymore and sitting next to the Titan was a new 2023 Nissan Maxima SR. Test drove it and then drove it home. Don't miss my truck and at 72 years of age I tell my much younger wife that the Maxima is my mid life crises vehicle. Love this vehicle. I personally would recommend either the Sentra, Altima and Maxima highly and in each one of them you get a lot of standard options that others charge for at a very fair price. In a short time we went from a Ford, Chevrolet family to a Nissan family. Oh I really liked the Titan also just decided on the Maxima.
They've really turned this into a top notch car.
Amazing concept))
Gasp 😱 they finally redesigned that key fob. Looks nice 👍
Fantastic review of an excellent car guys!😸
Looks nice and even though I'm a Honda Acura person...but fond memories with SER in 2007 doing a 7.5hr trip in 4 hrs 26min
I just bought the SV (2024)
I love it! :D
Amazing concept, prices rising up
Just purchased 2023 Sentra SV In October $23,450 on Vs Corolla Le $25,000 Nissan had more Stuff more Cheaper Price I'm in Budget let me tell the new Sentra is insane 👍 yes I got Extended warranty Security Plus, 72 months or 100,000 miles.
Congrats! Here in Dallas, new Corollas are being sold for several thousand dollars over MSRP but you can buy a new Sentra for MSRP or even below MSRP! So yes, the 2024 Sentra is definitely cheaper than the 2024 Corolla!
Thank you for this very detailed summary that is so helpful & informative!!!!!!
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
I like nissan idk why people say they suck. I see about 40 a day maybe even more in California.
Hey guys just wanted to say thanks. I recently watched your original review of the Sentra. I was sure I was going to get a Nissan Altima as I reallly like the seats and the car overall. I added the Sentra to my test drive list and it is a baby Altima! I went home with a certified 2020 Sentra SV in bright electric blue. Only been a few weeks but it's a car I look forward to driving.
Should have gotten a Honda or Toyota. Nissan are problem cars… Sell it while you can!
Great to hear! Glad to know these guys give good advice, I always suspected so!
Congrats on your Sentra! If definitely offers almost everything from Altima but for a better price!
@@CarConfectionsbesides pro pilot assist and a not so good audio system but the drive and engine smoothness is there
@CarConfections Could you do a night review showing Sentra headlights? You did one in 2020. Thanks.
I'm glad they got a new key to replace the one that has been in existence for 15 years
It’s very nice! Great price! I like the white and black seats
🟦 sorry if I bust your chops once in a while (Hyundai sonata) but I really enjoy you work. The new intro is perfect.
Amazing review guys.
Thanks so much!
@@CarConfectionsYou're welcome guys.
The interior kind of looks like a Mercedes C class
Car Confections make the best videos ever :)
Nissan Sentra is definitely the best compact car as the refresh 2024 is on the lot! They're my favorite cars!😊
Kia forte
Negative my love!!!
@@garmarrodKia is trash and a safety hazard
@@garmarrodeww no
@@fabolousjada5070 GT 6MT?? 🤫
Omg how cute that you use the donuts now instead of the coupons! Haha love it! 🍩
Hard to find reviews for a Sentra these days. Such a nice looking car and as reliable as Civic or Corolla.
23 years on road with 260,000 miles on my 2002 Sentra is still running very well. Rust has weakened the body, but everything except for the alternator, struts and control arms are original. I just had Missouri safety inspection and was told that car won’t pass next inspection in two years because of the rust weakening the suspension and body mating points. 2002 Sentra GXE has been an amazing car. Hope that new ones are as reliable as the old ones.
Saint Louis area?
I like the Sentra, especially with the quilted tan leather option on SV Premium Package. However, I'm still bit worried about long-term reliability for the powertrain.
Just sell it after warranty expiration
“You can probably tell there has been an updated design”.
Me thinking, “looks the same to me” 😂
Main thing is they got rid of the fog lights
Looks good and i love the new design but what I will recommend is to make a sunroof. It`s fun when you flex in the Sunroof
I just got my Brand new Nissan Sentra SV weather package2024(Atlantic Grey) Brand new, @ 4.9% apr @ $396 for 60 months. Guys for $590 weather package is a still it gives heated seats and steering wheels, remote start. Car comes standard with Nissan 360 safety shields. Auto on off engine features. Drives like a butter. I also got 4 years of full warranty coverage, 5 year power warranty and 2 years of free maintainance and car washes.
In the last 25 years I have owned three Sentras. Would not have bought the second one if they were a "cheap" car. Comfort, style, great gas economy ( and since one was a SER Spev-V, and another was an SR-Turbo) great performance for its price. I shop cars for value. And the Sentra definitely provides it.
Nissan will never be better than Honda or Toyota
Right now Sentra is better than Toyota and Honda, have you seen recently made Hondas and Toyotas, they suck big time, they are now over charging for the brand, they used to be good. Only Acuras are better in Honda line up and Lexus in Toyota lineup
I get picked up in many nissan ubers. That new cvt has been refined a lot.
Only guy I know with a Sentra goes super slow because the cvt transmission starts dying if he puts in any acceleration. It's super loud on the highway too, the cvt gets super loud. My civic is 3 years older and runs way better.
Better front passenger room ( leg room, hip room, shoulder room), Sentra or Jetta? Thanks
Nice car love it
When I was looking I drove this and the Forte GT. There was no comparison. The Forte destroys this car in most ways. The only thing this car is close on is a few interior bits. The upgraded stereo in Sentra is a bit better than the Harman Kardon in the Kia and that is about it. For pretty much the same price the Forte is the best value and performance in that class.
But lack in tech features
@@Ghostlorewhat tech features?
Kia has one of the best driving assist, kia app i think this should suffice for a day to day use
And most vandalized...
@@upstatebernie4827 only the ones without push button start. The Forte GT is not in that group. Only the rental spec versions
@@Ghostlore the Forte out techs the Sentra. Highway Driving Assist is awesome.
Not to be personal here, but are you guys KY residents? I myself live in KY and only ask, because I noticed in your Kia videos and Nissan you use the dealers in the area. Anyways, awesome video and cool car. I'm actually considering the new refreshed Sentra myself.
We are in the Lexington area. Nice hearing from a local!
They should make the Nissan emblem glow front and back. Also make the back lights a solid red like some of the other vehicles makes out there. That will give it that updated futuristic look. That would make the Sentras top notch. Maybe more people would buy them just because of that. And the radio needs to change.
I hope we can get this in the Philippines. This is legit my dream car.
Insane new Nissan Sentra sedan I can buy.
It looks pretty good... however, it is one of the most underwhelming compacts on the market..
This is compact like a Corolla and civic .... subcompact would be like the versa
Look at that price. It can’t be beat
Dude for $20grand you can’t beat it
Need a new compact daily and this Sentra and Corolla is looking like a good option right now was thinking about an EV but i just cant do the daily recharge
Owned a sentra for about a year back in 2014 and the seats were one of tge most uncomfortable... had to replace my daily driver and picked up one yesterday and gotta say they really improved in confort a total 180
"All models have a CVT"
Aaand that's all I needed to know to pass.. Thanks!
Hasta dentro de 1 año
Does anybody know if altima and sentra has mpi or direct injection and is altima and sentra use same CVT? Thanks
Don't like the fact they got rid of the LED fog lights and just stuck in plastic inserts instead. Also they should offer the speed manual in the US. I have a 2023 SR (Canadian) 6 speed and its a great car.
I bought mine in 2021 and sold it not even 6 months later in April on 2022 for $7k more then it was really worth
Any chance of getting a 2024 Subaru Impreza RS review ?
Please test the Subaru Impreza RS. Thank you !
I wonder why in the US, manual transmission wasn't offered. I got one here in Canada and it feels much quicker than the CVT.
Most Americans either can't drive stick or are to lazy to shift gears manually........
For a lot of reasons but
Laziness is the most common
@@reyperez3424 well said.......
Americans in general do not use manual much at all, the US car industry has been like this for years. not sure why you're even wondering tbh
So the 2023 doesnt have auto start stop?
These sell to ignorant women who learned that Nissan was a competitive car back in the 1970s (Datsun) and 80s and that’s all they know, and reject any new information to the contrary. It is an impressive car in the showroom.
If it’s not a Nismo. It’s just a Sentra bring back the good old SER but make it a civic type R killer.

Let's just face it; this Sentra is absolutely fabulous with at least a definite competitive price tag and very well equipped.
Did you know that on the shifter column, you have a really small button that engages sport mode on the Sentra.
On all ??
@@choppapete3521 Yes
This is for the creators why do no review companies and UA-camrs Tell the customers or viewers what the average fuel range of a full tank of gas is going to get them?
I missed the days when American cars were dominant like when I was a kid I’ve been seeing a lot of Chevy citations and Chevy Chevett Chevy Monte Carlo‘s a couple Ford Fairmonts and of course my grandparents drove a Buick. Yep those are the days now you see these imports
Would love to see a head to head comparison with anything in its class
There is only one vehicle in its class, the Kia Rio.
@@BoopSnootno. The Versa competes with the Rio. This competes with Corolla, Civic, Elantra, Forte
You're right, I mixed them up. @@LifeAfterLosing
@@BoopSnoot the versa I think is the best in that class tho for sure. Even over the Rio. The Versa looks a lot more premium in and out in comparison.
It would get spanked by a Civic touring.
IMO they messed up not having fog lights like they have before 24
The front bumper without the headlights makes it look no different from its mid and lower trims
I swear I thought it was the mitosis twins talking to me before I realized they’re different people
Race car ready 🏎️
Remember when you guys did a night review to show all the lights on the Sentra? Can you do that again since this one has new headlights. I want to see the difference from the old to the new.
They look the same too me
Sorry, the front fascia is not as aggressive looking as 2020 to 2023 year models. My opinion. The engine is lacking behind the Civic and Corolla and that's the one major Nissan need to deal with. Adding the start and stop is stupid as many people hate, including myself. I turn my off, each time I use my vehicle with the auto start/stop.
El motor del Sentra es igual o más duradero y fiable que los motores Honda y Toyota.
Undoubtedly the best in the segment, face to face with the civic, for the year comes the new sentra det 2.0 turbo mt
Manual treansmission? When?
What will last longer this or a Honda Civic???
Nissan needs to match Hyundai and Kia 10 year 100k warranty esp with the CVT issues they’re known for 😅
They won't unfortunately do 10years, but the newer Jatco CVTs from 2019 to present are decent, just change your transmission fluid when required...........
Needs to get the 1.5T from the Rogue, and a better transmission than a CVT. Nissan can do a modern SE-R from, the parts bin!
Did you see the Sentra nismo concept?? It's basically everything you described except it's a 2.0 L turbo....and a manual
That rogue engine gonna die before 150k miles 😂
With 225ftlbs and FWD that would be GTI levels of performance, you'd need a reasonably firm suspension and maybe even 245mm tires.
@@gmanbaz Never kept a car more than 100k miles, so no worries for me.
@@BoopSnoot Whatever it takes. Nissan managed the V6 with FWD in the Maxima so should be able to figure it out.
The biggest problem that this car has is that the Corolla is only about $1000 more and it comes with a significantly more powerful engine, better fuel economy, and a proven transmission. I’d need a couple thousand on the hood to consider the Nissan over the Toyota. $26k for an SR is a horrible deal.
First Sentra review I see they use the word “quick” 😂😂
... for the class, that is 😂
@@CarConfections I have to race my 21 SR against a Corolla and get back to you 🤣
I’m tempted to get a Sentra because I can buy a Mid-level trim for LESS than a base-level Corolla.
Is it reliable enough, though? I’m worried I will have to pay so much for it
I promise you that you will be better off in every way getting the Corolla. It has more power, better economy, much better transmission reliability, and I find Toyotas safety sense technology is just better than Nissans. The higher price is because of the new engine the corollas all have standard now (dynamic force). This engine is the most thermally efficient engine sold commercially in cars ever made. You buy the corolla for that. Just my opinion, buy what you want!
@@dreamzrm1016 yeah I went to a Toyota dealership and they ripped me TF off
@@azophisorry to hear that, dealerships still love marking up everything, but I will say it's not just Toyota. It's everyone. They are all guilty. Some dealerships don't mark up, but they make up in interest rates and taxes where others just charge markups. Nothing you could do about that in 2023.
@@dreamzrm1016 yeah. I think I am getting a VW since they gave me a good deal. I understand the reliability issues, but in a few years I should have the money to buy a new car anyways.
@@azophiI don't know if in a few years that VW you buy will run, for sure it will give you some annoying repair costs if you keep it more than 3. I wouldn't know, I've never owned one, but I have seen enough of them in my uncles shop. I hope it works for you though!
Have a 2006 Frontier SE Crew 4x4 and a 2015 Xterra PRO both purchased new; in 27 years of combined ownership (besides normal maintenance) have replaced one O2 Sensor, that's it. Sorry Nissan haters but I'm an actual subject matter expert, not a UA-cam parrot...
I love this car's appearance and dimensions! With said; to truly be competitive in the compact sport segment in 2023-24 and beyond, it's got to come to the party with nothing south of 200 hp! All the Brands have a 250 ish compact rocket in their camp. This car looks to cool to be this anemic! It needs at least a 50-75 power shot in the rear, to truly be in the arena! Thanks for the review! ✌🏽❤✊🏽
False. Civic and Corolla are sub 200 HP
@@cody5631 I apologize as I was referring to spec'd out variants like the Civic Type R, GR Corolla, Golf R etc..... Nissan hasn't offered an SE-R or NISMO in this shell yet and I'm hoping it's in the think-tank! Thanks for your reply!
It has good looks ruined by a weak engine and a crappy CVT.
There is a reason why they are going for so cheap compared to the far superior Civic and Corolla.
Sentra's engine doesn't break, you just give your opinion because you have no idea
I just got mine last night! For 26k
$650 a month and $1000 down! Not bad this car is really nice!
(Note)
Never use the start botton! It will kill your starter super fast!!!
Then how you start the car
@@dhanbirkang1815 im talking abt when your are on the lights! The new cars turn off! But as soon you press the gas turn on !!
$650 a month?! Damn!
Good for 10 years or 2,00,000 kms
Whichever comes first
Top quality small car imho.
I'd prefer to get the Kia Forte GT with 201 H/P, 7 speed dual clutch. Blow this car in the weeds. And no CVT. Better warranty. About the same price.
Not bad for a cheap car.
its not cheap car, cheap cars are one you buy from Facebook marketplace with 200k miles for $5000, salvage title
@@AlexT2048 it’s a cheap car for someone like me.
action speaks louder than words, you wouldn't be in this section if you had made it in life@@moneypenny174
It might be better if not for the C V T ! Stop start technology is worth one mpg. So the winner is......the Mazda 3.
Can we at least get a DIGITAL GAGE CLUSTER geez!!!
I’ve driven the Sentra and Corolla extensively. The Sentra is much better. I haven’t driven a Civic.
I like it but I rather have an SUV over a sedan
Nissan were is our Spec V Sentra. Easy all we need is the VQ35de and limited slip, 6 speed. So easy for Nissan to do. They have the parts. Uhhh
Sentra! Official vehicle of the uninsured apartment dwelling urban male motorist drifting wildly between lanes without blinker.
Not just males
Yeah, way more poor women that have this car from what I gather.
You're thinking of Altima. An official vehicle of African Americans.
🧢🧢🧢.
Whoa, whoa, whoa! You are talking about the old Altima's! Sentra's are the poor college kids going through small engine courses and attaching a bunch of performance parts to get incremental HP and TRQ increases.
No fog lamps? Looks like 2023 was the best last year
X2! Looks goofy without fogs
Nissan should have kept the fog lights on the Sentra, glad I have the 22 Sentra with fog lights..........
Automatic transmission version I prefer Mazda 3.
The highest trim Sentra wouldn’t hold a candle to either a base model civic or Corolla lol
Mazda 3 HB.
Drove the Sentra for a week. Nice car but can't trust Nissan transmissions.
No acceleration times and a "smile meter" that tells you nothing. Am I missing something?
no tinted windows
You know what destroys this car? A civic, Corolla, Mazda 3. Everything else is cool if reliability and longevity aren’t your #1 concern.
Look at that price compared to paying 30k for a base Corolla after mark ups
@Johnnyiswhere I got a loaded 2023 Sentra with more features than there car had for $26,000. I looked at the 2023 Civic which cost more but also what steered me away was its bland styling. Sentra has a much more muscular styling while the Civic looks like a Jetta.
@Johnnyiswhere you're so right! Here in Dallas, a base Corolla LE gasoline sedan is goin for 30K OTD after all the markups. However I can get a nicely equipped Sentra SV sedan for 23k after discounts. That's a 7k price difference and the Sentra SV has more features!
“Destroys”, what are you, 7?
Non-GR Corollas aren't all that impressive.
I think I’d rather go with a mazda3 with its automatic transmission
The infotainment on the Mazda 3 is ridiculous and outdated, touchscreen please it's 2023 not 2010........

Reallyyyyy!!!! That is a huge huge disappointment.
kinda sad, since theyve dramatically change the previous design, the previous design was more elegant, sharper and has more character to it.
Corolla 2024 ways better.
Sadly a very weak engine. Wish they had a true sr with 200+ hp and over 200 pounds of torque.
very weak? It's about as fast as it's competition. This is meant to be a daily driver commuter car, not a sports car. Your expectations are too high, karnal sicario.
@@braetonwilson4296 you’re 100% right.
Do you want to turbo? And manual transmission, ok, Nissan sentra det 2.0 turbo mt is what you're looking for
Nothing weak about the engine. Its the transmission that wastes the engine's power.
Wait... No power seats No thanks
Looks like a mX
The civic smokes this especially the touring
