Thanks everyone go getting us to 1.5M subs! Do you remember at what number YOU Subscribed?? 👇
About 300k. I love your personalities.
1.4M subs✨
Maybe the 500k mark, not to sure. But other than that, I love the straight pipes! Thank you two!
Under a mill I remember.
Probably 1.3M but I forgot.
It's incredible how well styled entry level cars are these days (i.e. Corolla, Sentra, civic). No longer an embarrassment to drive.
They're not entry level price anymore though.
@@rebeltvr6046 $20k is and has been entry level for a while. 2010 base model Sentra was $15k msrp, which in 2022 dollars is......about $20k. When you factor in the technology that trickles down, i.e. infotainment, safety, etc., the value goes up.
@@twistershift true
But these are the top trims of the entry level... The base trim has subtle, but significant changes imo
Every other new car looks like an Autobot these days
Nissan Altima, the black air force One of cars.
Can't disagree here
Swear get you through anything🤣
Don’t see no lies
Nah that's honda accords
Hands down u win best comment I live in South Florida u See any Nissan Altima Sentra Maxima please Sir CLEAR THE LANE
The Sentra looks better from every angle imo
Especially the tail lights
agreed something about the altima just doesn't look right Sentra is sexy cute
They look the same to me. And they both look like the maxima.
Lol they look identical. I know you must be bias we understand
Nissan Altima 2023 be like: Hold my wheel!😀
The Nissan Altima is the official car for the person who doesn't believe the laws of the road, nor the laws of physics, apply to them.
It’s the car for ghetto baby mama and this is the car their boyfriend water whipping
Anyone who's ever cut me off or had done something brazenly stupid while on the highway was in a temporary license plate raggedy old Altima or Murano going 95 in heavy traffic with four spare tires they can't afford to replace, broken windows replaced with ducktape, and an already ruined front and rear grill
@@colechapman6976 their probably in the hurry cause they don’t wanna miss that half priced crack form their local drug dealer
This is a comparison I never thought I would ever care about, but I’m watching this with the same intensity as if I’m going to buy one
@Capsized Cloud Thankfully there is a manual, going to test drive one. Need a new daily beater.
Yeah it’s perfect for me a current driver of a 2019 Sentra which I’ve loved. Waiting to be delivered my new 2022 Altima.
Just picked up my 2022 Sentra SR premium and I love it! It definitely feels and drives more expensive than it is, the power is adequate for daily commute and it's just SO dam comfortable! You cannot beat the value of the Sentra 😂
I have the same color on the video. Love my daily everyday i drive it.
how's the car so far??
omg, I get that Nissan wants to have a common design theme across their lineup, but these two cars look way way too similar.
Right?
Wait until You check the whole lineout back to back, versa/Sentra/Altima/maxima. Got myself a versa for daily use and a Sentra for going out/highways and pretty much the difference is just interiors and lenght of the car
It's like watching the same car in different stages of life: Versa-infant baby Sentra-toddler Altima-teenager Maxima-adult
If you should them to someone they'd definitely say they are the same car
The Sentra’s exterior design deserves a turbo engine and 6 speed or DCT.
YESSSSSSSSS If Nissan puts effort back into the Sentra like they did back in the day..Bye bye Corolla and even Civic
Yes a return of a Sentra R with over 300 hp to rival the elantra n or civic type r would be welcomed.
I’ve got a 2021 Sentra SR, same spec as the one in the video. It’s a great daily driver, good on gas, comfortable for short and long commutes. For the price it’s got a nicely finished exterior and interior. Only complaint would be the power, especially on initial “launch”, tends to be PAINFULLY slow
That's not what the car is for. We all knew that going in. What surprises you about the car is how good it looks in and out.
Maybe you need to get a k&n breather filter to be quicker with response power. Or atleast in 2008 think with your dipstick mate like the scottish actir said OR in 1980s "but boss giovanni i thought all oils are oils ? No numskull, Use Castrol Gtx and drive hard in 1990 ..I use 10w30 it feels lighter like 5w30 now past 2020 like modern oils do these days ..pennzoil Valvoline and Mobil 1 are hyped up to make you believe 🙌 .. they don't work as advertised
I bought my ALL NEW SENTRA in Oct. 2020 at Taiwan.
So nice to drive. 9 inch" video screen. AVM makes me an easy and comfortable feeling.
Price??
Thomas, same! I got it this past August of ‘21 and I love everything about the car but the acceleration. That’s probably why I drive it in sport mode all the time. That does seem to help. Out of all the cars I looked at, the Sentra was the most aesthetically appealing to me. I never thought I would want a Sentra.
I have a 2020 Sentra SR. When my car was getting serviced, they gave me an Altima as a loaner and I have to say interior wise I think the Sentra is much nicer and higher quality in comparison.
Guys honestly, I wasn't the biggest fan of your channel, but truly this review was so nice to watch, you went through all the details, plus in a very comfortable way on not rushing on mentioning every single spec of dust, you guys might just made me think of buying a sentra, thanks for the video!
Thanks, hopefully you're a fan now
@@TheStraightPipes sure I am, already suscribed yesterday!
Now we need Corolla and Camry, Mazda 3 and Mazda 6
Great review
Mazda6 has been killed unfortunately
@@JMJR07 right i forgot that🥲
@@JMJR07 For a brand that actually sold a couple of sedans I don’t see them “permanently” eliminating sedans all the way, I know the market is focused on suv’s but still their is a small market for sedans still…maybe in two to four years we will see nee sedans
@@stevenrivera6159 why would they make new sedans if the market is moving away from them?
@@stevenrivera6159 I hope they bring out a RWD based I-6 powered sedan on their new platform, but it sounds like that project has been put on indefinite hold while they prioritize crossovers that sell in greater numbers.
Really miss having an option like the SE-R back in the day. I had the B15 SpecV and while it had lots of reliability issues it was a blast to drive. I was disappointed by the Sentra Nismo just having a body kit with the same engine as standard. I’m liking the newest Sentra, just wish there was a hot version that might compete with the civic si.
Yup they need a real spec v
Still have my se-r altima 2005 lol. Love that thing. That and my pic on my profile which is a 2007 v6 6 speed altima
The Sentra Nismo had like 50-60 more horsepower than the standard Sentra. 188hp vs 124-130hp as the standard.
@@raider4394 no not really the regular sentra turbo has same hp and tq than the nismo version
@@jponz85 SR turbo has the same driving dynamics as a standard. NISMO handles and brakes better
You guys should do a blinker test, with rear blinkers simply being the brake light considered a fail and separate blinkers to brake lights considered a pass! It's a safety issue of turn signals just being much more noticeable and quickly recognized on the road if they're separate, and would give bonus points to the new Audi and Mustang sequential turn signals for the added flair. A small suggestion but one I don't see any other car reviewers mention. Keep up the good work!
This is a good idea. I'd maybe take a more general view and spend some time evaluating the overall quality of the lights -- headlamps, DRLs, turn signals. There are fundamental safety considerations around these design elements. Cars with amber DRLs lose a point as they are less visible in bright sunlight, and cars with brake lights mounted at the bottom of the bumper lose a point also for visibility reasons. Cars that have amber turn signals gain a point over cars that have red turn signals. Models that reserve the good quality headlamps for the upper trims and include poorer quality headamps on lower trims should also be called out.
I've always felt using the brake lights as turn signals is such a lazy cop out. I agree, more cars should be creative like the mustang with the sequentials.
@@MLHunt Also test automatic light sensors, I see countless nissans including new ones driving when it is very dusk with only drls when every other car has full headlights on.
@@MLHunt I have never seen amber DRL having problems showing in sunlight. In fact they are far more noticeable. Maybe our eyes are different?
Ford is notorious for cheeping out on blinkers. The Fiesta and Transit, (and older models like late model Aerostars and Crown vics etc) have/ had a dedicated spots for yellow blinkers in the tail light housing ( the clear spots), but the NA models they removed the bulbs, and made the brake lights the blinker.... cheap to the max. Most Chevy cars while not better at least are designed from the start to have combo bake/ blinker. Ford? Nope you get an empty spot in your light housing.
I'm so glad you guys kept it real and went for a pair of Nissan commuter cars for your 1.5M video. The best part was Jakub forgetting which car he was sitting in, LOL.
Congrats on 1.5M subscribers, guys!
My 2015 Altima S is still running like new, knock on wood, and is much longer and handles super on curves and wet surfaces. In SOFLO, heat effects performances of certain elements, a.c. system is super but pull on engine is noticeable. Really been sweet and reliable. Good luck with yours.
Is it still up and running?
Now that, was the altimate battle of the sentray!
If I had 7k dollars more then the cost of a Nissan Sentra, I wouldn't be buying a Nissan LOL.
@@Toymonkeyjr lol thats a correct statement!
Best comment😂
I absolutely love the car review court theme 🔥 , keep this up guys! Also another congratulations on reaching 1.5 million subscribers 🇨🇦. Also wondering because I am a uk viewer how long would merchandise take to arrive?
Congratulations on 1.5 mil guys!!!
Keep rockin'
You can option the 360 camera on the Sentra w/ the SR Premium package, Altima has it with the Platinum trim. It's a shame the Altima VC-Turbo is so overlooked.
Cuz Nissan is trash
Maybe a future transplant will be in order. 😁
Hands down the obvious choice here is the Sentra. The Altima is a better car, but it's not even close to being $7k better; so definitely the Sentra. Good luck to the Leafs in the playoffs, hope they finally win the cup this year !
Honestly to me it’s down to if you want the added room or not. Most people will be fine in a sentra.
I LOVE ALL THE GREAT VIDEOS OF CAR REVIEWS!!!!! GREAT JOB
There was a comment made at the 6:20 mark in the video that the Sentra does NOT have 360 viewing in which case it does. I have a 2020 Sentra SR Premium edition and it does in fact have the 360 viewing option... Other than that I love watching these vids and they are very informative... Keep up the good work and vids.
Everyone loves a great cvt.That's why the put them on performance cars.
The current generation Sentra has a belly pan that extends nearly half the length of the car & you have to remove about 25 plastic clips just to remove it to change the oil. The Altima has about 8 clips on its belly pan & is much more user friendly. The 19 inch tires on the Altima are a pain to mount onto the wheels.
So, less repair friendly?
Bought the 2023 Sentra SR midnight edition with the manual for $25k can. What an incredible car for the money! Btw, you manual review really helped in the buying decision! Thx!
Always produces some of the best shots ❤️
Lol I can’t believe the 2022 Sentra has 10 more hp than the 1990’s Sentra Se-r. smh
Economy is the numbers game when gas is $5 a gallon.
@@Hallowsaw yea I agree. It is what it is
Thats still pathetic to be charging a full price for that
that's Mr. 10 more hp to you, Sir.
It needs the extra hp since it weighs about 500 lbs more. The hp/weight ratio is 0.048 for both the 1997 Sentra SE and the 2022 Sentra SR; hp/weight ratio for the 1997 SE-R was .056.
Generally the bigger car would have more insulation from noise and vibration. It would have been good to test the interior sounds
My grandma had a silver 1996 Sentra she got for her birthday of that year, she drove it until 2014 when she traded it in for 2014kia rio hatch, it was such a reliable car!
Hope these new gen nissians keep up with their old reliable reputation.
i have a few videos of the car i just got last week, it's a 2020 nissan versa sv. i love toyota but this will help build my credit for now. love watching these types of videos.
I have 0 interest in a Sentra or Altima but watch this vid cause you guys are awesome.
🙌
Like some have mentioned, I'm still waiting for an SE-R Sentra. Also missing my NX2000. Nissan is okay, but they used to have really good/fun cheap cars, if you knew what to get. Now they're just OK.
Great share appreciate all you do
Jakub, your watch has ultimate 90' polish vibe! Greetings from Poland!
I'm surprised they didn't mention the sport mode button on the Altima, definitely makes the difference.
They have it on all Nissan models
They did lol
The Sentra is hitting the right RPMs it would be cool to have a performance version of it.
i’ve got a 2018 midnight edition altima and i gotta say, for the price i picked it up for it’s a great car. i keep on top of maintenance (coolant, transmission fluid, oil, brakes, and tires) and she runs like a champ.
i’ve made a few minor modifications to mine for that fun factor too. z rated tires, catback exhaust, injen SRI, and a 93 octane fuel map+speed limiter removal. the 2.5 actually sounds really good given the right exhaust setup, and so far i’ve managed to top mine out at 140ish. that’s all the speed and fun i need, and the factory SR suspension handles surprisingly well for a FWD car of its size.
The Nissan Sentra is my Grandma's Dream car these two almost look the same but Great video and Congrats Jakub 1.5M Subscribers
This comparison is good to know in case I have to pick one at airport car rental
It wasn't until 3 minutes in I was able to figure out which was which. I think I prefer the more angular Sentra front end but probably better shape on the Altima.
The new sentras are growing on me, I have a 03 specV, which is a good mix of fun and looks, it will smoke first, spin 2nd, and bark 3rd and 4th, but the 91 se-r I have is the go to car if ya like passing cars while smoking the tires in 2nd gear
Sucks that Nissan uses Jatco CVT's really hurts the brand's reliability. But at least you can get the Sentra in a 6-speed manual.
That CVT is really holding Nissan back
@@TheBreakfastLover cvt is Nissan deathbed and the quality control is bad 🫢
Okay, Scotty. Lol you’re all clueless parrots.
Sucks that people just parrot BS without scientific evidence.
@@bjornironsides6474 parrot BS on CVT’s? Have you not done the research, have you not talked to people who owned these things? What are you a CVT sales rep? Everything points to these trans being abysmal.
This brand used to be a star back in 90’s to 2000’s, now that recongnition goes to hyundai-kia :(
Hyundai are awesome
@BradIey's Car Reviews Hyundai are awesome. The improvement they have made in the past decade is unreal.
@BradIey's Car Reviews Hyundai is most definitely a better brand than Nissan hands down. Genesis as well pretty much craps on Infiniti.
Hyundai is definitely not better then Nissan wth hahaha Hyundai/Kia are complete crap now matter how much gimmicks they add to their cars
@@BoldBrandFlakes Hyundai? The brand that still has their cars catching on fire? 🔥🔥
AWD is great to have where I live so I actually bought a 22 Altima SV AWD. It's not fast but faster than the Impreza Sport I had while getting better gas mileage with more space for family trips so I'm happy. Besides the AWD the Altima is bigger in width and length.
Thank you for this video guys. I actually just subscribed because of this. I am also looking for a new car and I was thinking a Nissan Sentra would be the right car for me although I'm having a hard time finding one
Tsp.truecar.com
Brands having a consistent design language across all their models can go too far to make them all look alike.
These cars are actually both underrated. The Altima will pull .93Gs on a skidpad on all-seasons--Nissan also uses a lot of aluminum in the Altima's suspension. It's unfortunate that Renault doesn't do much for the Sentra's chassis calibrations as it shares a platform with the Megane. Also, the Sentra deserves an engine which matches the design and chassis, both of which are well-regarded. The cars both have unfortunate reputations, meaning very few people order the Altima with that excellent turbo. My choice would be the Altima as the 2.5 liter has enough power to enable aggressive driving, where the Sentra doesn't. Also, it's a Nissan through and through. Against the Sentra, I'd probably choose a new Civic or Jetta.
YESSSS you noticed! IF they put effort back into the Sentra its a wrap for this segment. They will dominate.
I love the size of the Sentra but wish it had the engine of the Altima
Ah yes... "aggressive driving" in an Altima
Got a 2014 Altima love it, but eventually I hope to upgrade to a newer Altima soon.
Wow !! 1.52M , started watching you guys back in the baby days lol
They just turned the Sentra into a baby Altima but they are both horrendously slow and don't get me started on the CVT that's the worst transmission you can ever have
@BradIey's Car Reviews CVTs suck who wants simulated gears that's just plain dumb. they're more prone to failure than a actual automatic transmission and also the acceleration is God awful with a CVT
@@avrggamer69 while I agree about CVT sucking, you know most cars are now CVT as well. Civic-CTV, Corolla-CVT, Elantra-CVT. Only real exception now a days is Vw with either dual clutch or regular transmissions. Unless!!! You get the highest models, like a civic si,
@@avrggamer69 What i hate about CVTs is that some manufacturers program them to only a finite number of gear ratios. That really kills the advantage of a CVT, that is, ideal gear ratio at every speed.
Some manufacturers, like Honda and Toyota, have mastered CVTs, while some like JATCO (the brand supplying CVTs for Nissan) suck.
Just get the 6 speed like I did, drives like a completely different car. Ain’t no sports car but its way more fun to drive.
@@jdawg9481 Mazda doesn’t have cvt’s on any of its line up
Those midnight editions look good, but I'd want something a bit quicker to match the look. I think if you just need to buy one of these two, a used low-miles Sentra in base form is where you can get your $$$'s worth. You can find it with a 6-speed manual which makes it quicker and gets rid of the CVT which has been the only significant reliability issue with them.
Altima offers an optional turbo engine
Honestly the SR altima has come a along way in style! Looks good. To bad the 3.5 was discontinued!
showing love for the working folk, appreciate it.
I love my sentra but every time I pulled up next to an altima I couldn't help but think "yeah that's got to be a much nicer ride" Always wondered the deference though other than all wheel drive
Much difference as deference
I legitimately enjoy the "regular car" videos. The exotic car reviews are fun and all, but realistically I can only relate to cars such as those featured in this video.
Side note though...how come it seems like every other Altima driver has a death wish when behind the wheel? lol.
Because they drive a Nissan Altima. If I drove a crappy Nissan I would have a death wish also
Young drivers/ first cars
Great Video
I like the Sentra’s front bumper design over Altima’s, it looks sharper and sportier, but for me Altima is better in other qualities like AWD, size and engine..
The sentra just looks better to me, but to be honest I would never buy either. I don't have anything bad to say about them as for why I would never buy either. I just don't drive cars, I have only had trucks for the last 17 years.
Great video as always.
I have something bad to say about them ..."jatco CVT"
Interior shots...Altima on the right.
Exterior shots...Altima on the left.
Me...never sure which car I was looking at.
😂
Altima fog lights on top. Sentra fog lights on bottom.
You can absolutely get a 360 camera in the Sentra with the SR premium package. and congrats on 1.5 million.
Amazing video as always
How about a Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk 4XE vs Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 4XE review??
For the 2022 Sentra, the US-spec SR trim’s with the optional premium package adds a 360° camera system.
I have the 2022 Sentra SR and I love it. Interior, exterior, even the curves are better in the Sentra than the Altima
Go Leafs Go!
And very good comparison btw.
Would be cool to see a maxima review, seems like an underrated sedan
The problem with the Maxima is that once you get into that price range there are lots of better alternatives
Yeah I have a 2017 and I've had a rental Altima recently and I still think the Max beats it in every way.
The Maxima would be such a great car if it didn’t have a CVT. I wish they would throw a 9 speed in there.
@@BoldBrandFlakes So true, I have a 2020 Maxima Platinum and that is the one thing I wish for. My Wife has the Toyota Avalon Limited and I wish I could combine to two. The Toyota has a very good 8 speed transmission but lacks the style of the Maxima.
To be honest the cars look REALLY cool. I love the headlights, tailights, the rims, the bodyshape, everything. This is the one car though that I would only get manual, and i LOVE automatics.
I rented the 2021 Sentra and drove it in mixed driving , it drives pretty nimble !
Terrific video. Congratulations on breaking 1.5 millions subscribers.
I live in Texas and don’t need awd. I would take the Sentra over the Altima
Nissan, along with Mitsubishi, has become the car brand for people with crappy credit. That’s who they sell to, so major innovations and adding more power aren’t that necessary, because it’s the car of last resort after a buyer got turned down for financing at other brands’ dealerships
Nissan is still in the top 3 japanese companies alongside with Toyota and honda lmao
...along with Chevrolet and Ford and Kia and Hyundai etc... With ALLY, Capital One Auto and NFCU's of the world with 72-84 month terms, its pretty much any high volume dealers from low/mid tier manufacturers these days.
Exactly! Buyers would have to be turned down from the Toyota dealership then turned down at the Honda dealership in order to want this. Nissan is like the last option for a Japanese car. Like your credit has to completely be in the toilet in order to want to get an Altima. You can tell who they sell their cars to by the way Nissan drivers drive. Rogues and Altimas are the most aggressive drivers on the road.
@@zigzag00 There’s a lot of people with shit credit here in the US
Put that new vc-turbo engine from the new altima into the sentra with 3 pedals.
I have a 2013 Nissan Altama coupe 2.5 with the red leather package, Daddy said the GTR was too expensive. Nissans are great cars! love mine!
Very nice comparison
Wish the maxima was here too but great video
Maxima got killed off already :(
This Sentra's 2.0L makes 9 more HP than the 1991 Sentra SE-R's 2.0L.
This literally made me scratch my head
@@jstephens1193 it’s pretty disappointing that they couldn’t get more power out of it over the course of 31 years.
@@stevend3753 when they said the power in the video, I couldn't believe it. There's no reason for a car in today's market to have less than 225ish horsepower... Especially with cars just getting heavier and heavier with safety and technology.
@@jstephens1193 it's an economy car what did you expect?
@@NOFATCHICK1 I expect power to increase as weight increased... They literally made more power a few years ago.
The Sentra SV with the premium package gives you the option for saddle brown quilted leather seats. Best in the class
they absolutely MUST continue their next line of vehicles with the same styling as this Sentra
Losing the CVT would be a game changer for Nissan. Literally.
Never going to happen, Nissan owns Jatco, the company that makes the crappy CVTs.
IRL i see more Sentra’s drive faster than Altimas.
Love Jakub’s “Big block 2.5”! 😆
Congratulations team straight pipes for the milestone. Now if only I too can live in Canada…
Altimas are a bad omen. Bound to get rear ended or end up a single dad with 3 kids.
Still loving my 2019 Altima SR
I like 'em both (and yes, they're very similar), but I have a soft spot for the Sentra, so Sentra for me.
I got the 2022 Nissan Sentra sr midnight and it look so good at every angle love tha car so much never gets old :).
I always get depressed driving by strip malls and office buildings and seeing all the generations of Sentras, Altimas, and Maxima's lined up and down the rows. Feels like they all gave up and settled. It's like going suit shopping and just wearing something right off the rack. They just lost their passion somewhere down the line.
Haha. Why you say that? You hate Nissan that much?!
The 5 spoke wheels on the Sentra look way better to me.
Love you guys, great vid! Really hard to justify the Altima
Sentra wins. Just bought a 22 sentra sr this week and mine DOES have a 360 camera and adaptive cruise. Wifi too. Also my seats are a different leatherette. Heated wheel, heated seats, sunroof, led lights. The only thing this didn't come with were the illuminated kick panels and led accent lighting. Went from a 2018 lexus rx 350 suv and honestly the engine feels like the biggest compromise. Everything else feels great
I actually had a base altima as a rental for a week or so last year. Totally agree with everything you guys said, i was honestly surprised with how nice it drove and felt for being such a cheap alternative to the camry/accord.
It’s just that though, a rental.
HP is hideous on the Altima to even be compared as a cheap alternative to the camry/accord plus the transmissions are way different on toyota and honda compared to nissan
@@squidwardshouse67 not a bad thing! that’s all a lot of people want. it’s more of an A-to-B appliance than a car, and for people that see driving more as a commuting necessity than a pastime, the value aspect of it is well worth it. i’m not going out to buy one lol, just saying, for what it is, it has some pros.
@@stevenrivera6159 A-toB commuters don’t care about HP. that’s who this car is marketed towards, and the lack of HP is well worth the price difference for those commuters who would not notice the difference.
this is a car i’d recommend to my mom, who is on a budget but likes some convenience features. doesn’t know what a CVT is lol and wouldn’t notice, i would probably tell her to lease it. those are the people that are buying this. with everything “fun and sporty” getting expensive, i think it’s good that there’s affordable entry options that may not be as refined or powerful for people that don’t notice or care about those things.
Know it's a long shot but I really hope there's another generation of Maxima on the way. The Altima/Sentra duo are boring me to death
I have a 2022 Altima and actually reeeeally like this car. I drive very conservatively and am currently getting 44mpg. Feels super comfy
I don’t believe ya man… can the mpg even get that high at all? Thought it maxed out around 35/36.
@@beerus0014 so that's what they rate it for the average driver, but if you're not accelerating and braking hard / driving the speed limit, I've gotten better than the ratings with every car. My 2021 ram 1500 was getting nearly 20
@@beerus0014 I brought my 2022 SR w/ 2 miles on it in December and the mpg is comparable to my husband’s rt Charger. It’s horrible! I drive mostly expressway and I can’t believe how quickly my gas dissipates.
How are they against the Mazda3 and the new Jetta? Which one one you will take?
They both are very good looking vehicles. Much better looking than the rivals. I review of the VC turbo Altima would be nice.
VC-Turbo isn't available in Canada outside of Infiniti products and the only Altima you can get in Canada is AWD.
Y’all should review the Nissan Maxima SR or 40tg anniversary edition
Do the VC Turbo Altima vs the Maxima. That would make for a more interesting discussion.
The "value" is going to go away when they breaks down at 80K Km
I wouldn’t bother getting any Nissan with a CVT. With their track record, the transmissions will break down way before 80K
@Abdullah Z Hyundai/Kia are definitely much better now, and Honda’s CVTs are also pretty good. I think Toyota’s CVTs are the best by far, but CVTs still have drawbacks regardless of what car they come attached to
I think Toyota's and Honda's CVTs are pretty good. CVTs are just one of the last few things to make internal combustion engines more efficient along with the small engines with a turbo like the latest Civics. But I don't think they'll be as reliable as older less efficient engines in the long run
lol all of you are just parroting Scotty Kilmer and have no clue or real science to support what you’re talking about. You’ll be fine with any of these cars with cvts these days.
Oh I th8nk Toyota cvts are pretty gooooood. Nweerraaah. Lol 😂. So many engineers and quality testers here eh? Nah, just Scotty repeaters
