- The ALL NEW Sentra has arrived and it is ready to be the compact car king. It's exterior has been enlarged and re-shaped to make it look like a mini Maxima. Under the hood is a 2.0L inline-4 that produces 149HP & mated to a CVT. On the inside you will see a highly improved interior with full leather seating and a ton of safety features. Is the redesigned 2020 Nissan Sentra a BETTER compact car to buy?

Thanks for testing base trims Joe
Not everyone can afford the “top of the line “
That's how I totally feel!
Exactly! Thanks Joe!
Especially a Sentra
This is not the base trim. The "S" trim is the base model. Which has steel wheel hub caps, single zone climate. This is the mid-level "SV" trim. "SR" is the top trim.
@@RaitisRides Nissan and all other car brands should make the ac vents on the second row seats standard. For those families with limited budget and want a brand new car even at base trim can provide a comfortable ride at the back special those with kids.
I know this comment has been stated a million times but you’re the best Joe! Testing all trims for all price levels and needs. Can’t wait till you hit 500k and 1m+ subs!! You definitely deserve it brother
That really means the world Jeremy! Thanks for your great support!
If I see no complaints about the CVT in this car 5 years later, I could probably see myself trading in my older car for this.
CVT is still weak. If you maintain cvt with every 25k miles or 30k kms rather than factory recommended protocol, then it should be okay. Still, CVT is very weak and plague with problems as today and not durable at all.
Teddy Bunny Awesome so CVT must have been maintained regularly. 👍
Supposedly this Xtronic CVT should be more reliable, we should wait a couple of years or months then we will know
I think most people think that CVT is not good because they are driving like crazy.. this car is not Mustang or Lambo..
The most broke comment I've ever seen in my entire life
I own a 2020 Nissan Sentra SV with almost 40,000 miles and I can honestly say that I absolutely love love love this car I highly recommend this Sentra SV to everybody that likes style and safistication crafted for great gas mileage and monthly payments Joe keep producing quality videos to the consumer and safe driving out there!!!!!
I'm looking at one now, wasn't sure because all I hear of the Nissan cvt. Should one be worried on these newer models?was looking for a corolla, but same price is about 2017-18. I liked the sentra so on a test drive. Good in snow?
Yes you are being different and showing different levels. Everyone dont own a BMW lol. Much Much Much appreciated. By seeing this when people that i know make only certain mount of money, i can tell them sorta what to look for that they can afford. Thank u man.
Of course my friend! I appreciate you having my back!
@@RaitisRides Actually the entry level trim is the S model for the Sentra, which doesn't come with a 8" infotainment system, remote start, SiriusXM. SV is the mid level. And I bet the SV will be the volume seller out of the S and SR.
The dashboard looks like a Kia Stinger. I think now the Sentra is a good competitor to the Corolla and the Civic design wise. Love the interior
Not reliability wise tho
@@Npowa2.0 do you say this because of the CVT?
The SV isn't the entry trim, there is a lower "S" trim.
Exactly.
What a great value!.. As usual super job Mr Raiti and must say Tom is absolutely spot on with videography. 👍
i love how you do the base models. its one of the reasons i love your channel so much. well that and i love how you use food as a measurement lol
Thanks for letting me share it all with you!
Joe I love when you test the base models! Another nice touch like you said, that Raiti's Rides does!!!!! No one else does this. Keep doing this.
You got it!
Thank you Joe for so many amazing videos sir. You’re truly the best!
You are so very welcome Landon! Thanks for the great support!
love the new styling even in the entry level trim. Thank you for testing it.
Thank you for this review, Joe. I was on the fence about trading in my 16 Sentra, but this video was very informative. At the end of the day, I just need to get from point A to point B, safely. This car (even just the S) has so many safety features, it even brought down my insurance. As a parent, knowing my daughter is in a safe vehicle is a plus. The new look is just a bonus;). Oh!! Tom did an amazing job, btw. Thanks guys.
The Nissan Sentra is almost impossible to buy in Germany. I think the model don't exists here. Thanks for this review. Greetings from Berlin and stay healthy.
Oh wow that is really crazy! Thanks for your support and please stay safe as well.
Raiti's Rides Actually, it is not surprise. Europeans are more of hatchback types; however, Nissan Rogue Sport/Qashqai with dual clutch is very popular in Europe. 👍
You don't have the Nissan Sunny over there in Europe?
@@gtrzdaddy No, at least not in Germany. I don't know what it's like in other EU countries.
I just bought this car a week ago and I love it. Smooth ride and it exceeded my expectations
You know what Raiti I am really digging this car man.
Im leasing a 2020 and love it. Its smooth ride, fast and comfortable. I asked my svc advisor on cvt trans he adviced to change oil every 30,000 miles
Another excellent review from the best in the business!!! 👍
Great review! I am really liking the new design
This guy is good, thanks for the information man.
Joe this Sentra looks decent...not even in a "for an entry level Nissan " way. They really went to work in the looks department. Alloy wheels, color-matched everything, mini-Maxima look, spacious trunk, good safety features, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, decent interior appointments..even on this base model!!! .....but man, that CVT needs to go all the way away!!! It'd be an absolute dealbreaker if I was in the market for a car like this. Great review beginning to end as usual Joe!!! Stay safe out there man!!! 👍🚗💨💨💨💨
Really Great Video! Absolutely enjoyed it because of the presentation style, the filming and cutting. I do also really like this car. Except for the CVT, but otherwise it seems to be a nice car!.
That is so wonderful of you to say Daniel!
@@RaitisRides You´re Welcome.
Good review! Always test the trim which sells most..
Hot damn, nobody is pumping out car reviews as much as you are! I finish watching the Jeep review and BOOM!! Another review uploaded. Quality reviews too, not some kid off the street pretending to know what their talking about.
great review. i may buy one in my local market today.
The S trim level is the base model. The SV trim is the mid range, SR is the top fully loaded model
Hello Mr Raiti! I have a 2015 sentra and I really really hope this car is a huge improvement
Oh it is !
nice review Joe... Any chance you can review the 2020 Kia Sportage with SX trim? keep them coming ...
Isn’t there an “S” trim?? Still a fantastic review though, love how you do multiple trims my guy!!
I test drove one with the sv premium package. Loved the interior with the tan leather. I think the car drove real nice and it was loaded with features for the price. I Also feel this cvt is way better tuned than previous models.
You are so very right Dean!
How come every car place in the world has a nerdy looking guy that ain’t attractive showing cars like seriously hire an attractive guy to do this and get rid of him
good review im thinking wich one a take so with this video i will go with the sentra sv its enough for me thanks you from canada quebec ;)
I watched this video a while back and today I purchased the SV Premium Sentra with the tan leather, sun roof and 17s. I traded from a 2013 Nissan Sentra which was a great car never had problems with it. It's crazy to think how nice this car is compared to the one I had.
Congrats Julio! They made some big changes!
Just got mine today! Sv grey charcoal
Thanks for the review. Great looking design and love that color. Wish they offered the base model with a manual transmission like they do in Canada. I would buy it. Something like the Honda Civic Sport sedan with a firmed up suspension and a manual transmission would be even better.
Thats what i got!! 2020 honda cuvic sport 2.0 ivtec with 6 speed manual!! I love the car
Joe, watching your test drive videos is like watching a formula one race. You drove a Nissan Sentra with 16 inch wheels like it was a GT3 . Next time I'm in the Tampa bay area you have to show me those race tracks lol .
Thanks Marcus! I really appreciate your support. You got it! LOL
Joseph! Thank you for giving us car models that are not the fully loaded option.But the title says "S" and not "SV." :)
Thanks for having my back! I fixed it!
Raiti's Rides You got it!
His name is Joseph? I thought it was Joe...
Good review & great Sentra.
Thanks man!
The blue color on this car looks so sharp!!
See if you can review the sv premium package. Picked up one and the interior is phenomenal in person for this price point. It should get more attention. So many features for the price point.
Hey my brothaaa checking in
I think this nissan sentra base model having remote start and safety shield🛡 is a really great buy!!👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
The Sentra S model is the entry level trim for the Sentra, which doesn't come with an 8 inch infotainment system, remote start or SiriusXM. SV is the mid level
The blue diffusers look good
The sunny, altima and the sentra have the same overall body design.
Great review
Sentra definitely stepped up their competitiveness . It's a fun car and has a lot of features. It's more sporty than a corolla and can stand up against a civic. Great gas also
Good that you’re not all about big buck cars. That’s why you’re the best auto reviewer on TH-cam!
What's with the Finger @ 6:37.... I loved it, another great video. Stay Safe!!
Thanks Todd!
Thanks for reviewing the base trim joe I show my girlfriend this video and she wants the new
Sentra after telling her how good the car is 😂
Very nice elegant car for the price. I bought one today. Fits my budget. I love my car . I love the new design they did on the sentra, inside and out. Very economical car .
I lease a 2020 grey gun metal, beautiful, gives me 29.6 miles in city
I love nissans even though they let me down a lot these last days.
I know how you feel!
Yeah Nissan! Welcome back to the conversation!
I just bought a new 2022 Sentra SV and got lucky has leather seats and sunroof for $25k and no market adjustment. It's for my daughter so I hope she takes care of it same blue color.
Hey Joe!! I love PayDay bars!!! Don’t forget about those!! I mean who doesn’t like a PayDay? But hey this is a great review of an affordable car! Nissan apparently tried. I agree with you tho and many others that a CVT earns a Big Ass Zonk! Otherwise I can live with the faux carbon fiber... instead of piano black plastic. Nice package!
Love your channel. Can you start telling us where the cars are assembled in your reviews? It matters to some of us.
Thanks for taking the time to say that. I will start to do that.
Sentras are assembled in Aguas Calientes, Mexico
Subscribed! Great job. How would you compare this to the kia forte? Which one carries the higher value? Bang for the buck? Thank you
Thanks Miguel for joining the Raiti's Rides family! You are getting more with the Forte GT.
Dat homie Joe putting in work! Dont even plan on buying this type of car, but always wanting to know how many twinkies fit.
Same !
I own a 2020 Sentra SV in white with over 30,000 miles on it I am very happy with this car!!!
That is so awesome to hear!
Great vid kept safe
Thanks Xavier! Will do!
Yh
@@xavierbeckford926 Thank you !
I own a white 2020 Sentra SV with almost 30,000 miles on it I have had this car since early May 2022 I'm the 2nd owner no complaints so far gets very good fule milage even on long road trips from ocean county New Jersey to Nassau county New York I really love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love my Sentra SV....SAFE DRIVING OUT THERE EVERYONE!!
Idk but there is something about Nissan that always attracts me lol. Ik they are not very reliable nowadays but i still buy it. Maybe because it runs in my family, my dad always owned a Nissan and surprisingly they were not at all unreliable for us. No transmission problems, no engine problems, nothing! Just some wear and tear as with any car used for more than 5 to 7 years.
I own 2020 Sentra SV with almost 28,000 miles on it.....I ABSOLUTELY LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE MY CAR.....
Great looks, but it’s a no because of the Continuously Volatile Transmission.
I like the spec of this Sentra my favorite color
This Blue is awesome isn't it
It’s a nice look. They were in desperate need of a redesign
This is so true Alex!
Yeah mine was a 2019 loner 0 to 60 in 10 seconds the dealership messed up my Honda Accord and how to give me a loaner for 2 days and I did my own reveal as a driving enthusiast so that 20/20 could be better I'm sure it is but the 19's are was the biggest piece of crap I've ever driven in my life
U can actually get the 6mt in Sr trim in Canada for 2021. I think that would give a good competition to civic and Corolla se 6mt.
Oh wow! Thank you for sharing that info with me!
Over all really good overview, but I think you could have gone a little further in answering the question - value compared to the competition. But like I said really good overview. ;-)
Thanks John.
Car showroom guy: Ok Joe, what features would like to see before you proceed to buy our car?
Joe: do you have a car with a large space to store twinkies?
I like the way that you think. LOL
I wish they had the led day time running lights
Seems like a great value. The Sentra has usually been a nice looking car, too.
Spend $1000 more and get a Toyota Corolla SE instead. You'll thank me later avoiding the problems Nissans are infamous for.
9:42 "You can put some candies in there..flip it back. Lets go check out the trunk...time to check out the junk in the trunk.." Where are the candies? LOL
Thanks for letting me share some laughs with you!
I don't mean to give this safety feature a zonk but the parking emergency rear brake having to turn it off upon entry . The front collision brake is fine
Beautiful car but I don't like CVT's and still under powered considering it's power/weight ratio...... If they had a manual turbo I'd go to my Nissan dealer right now.
I know how you feel Gary! Fingers crossed they do something about it.
JOE ~ I had a Datsun pick up truck & way later on in life a Nissan Frontier King Cab, great quality as far as change oil tires brakes & drive it for one hundred years, but man are they slow. 149 HP w/ a CVT my riding lawn mower could probably smoke it lol. nothing at all against Nissan, I just feel they miss the chance so often to rise above others in the same class & say it's on like Donkey Kong, but they never do, it's like they're happy always hovering around 3rd or 4th place in the ASIAN built car market. too bad because they're capable of catching Honda & Toyota in just a couple of generations, I doubt at this point anyone will be able to catch Hyundai/ KIA - they're long term big picture auto makers with a brilliant plan for success. just my thoughts & opinions oh GREAT ONE - your bro tony
A big improvement to the Sentra, but still falls short. Where is the Nismo, or Sentra GTR?
What is the difference between SV and SR??
Which is better to lease out? This or the Kia Forte? 🤔
I absolutely love my 19 sentra sv with almost 53,000 miles on it...I'm the 2nd owner looking forward to my next sentra sv or sentra sr later this year or later next year....people need to stop hating on this car and need to go get a life. Seriously!!!!!!!!!
Is this car worth a look and test drive?
I have 2010 Santra but i am not sure sv is too length to drive in garage? Sv Same size as 10 years ago sanetra can fit in to? My house community only have two space, dont want to hit garage door. I am worry higher horse power too fast to drive in local😳😲
Looks good
I am glad that you like this one.
I’m probably gonna say maybe idk I never really thought about it.
Actually the base model is the S trim, which doesn't come with an 8 inch infotainment system, remote start or SiriusXM. SV is the mid level. And I bet the SV will be the volume seller out of the S and SR.
Can you review a 2020 Hyundai Elantra Limited?
He is I think when the new one arrives.
Entry level trim is the “S”. Without the 8 inch display and Apple/Android. SV is the mid level trim.
Good looking car
How tall are you? I’m trying to figure out how big the car is.
Not bad for a base model. Reasonable price and the car does looking good. Just need more power though
I totally agree with you!
@@RaitisRides yep. It should / may be around 160-190hp at least for this one 🤔
I hear so much negative comments about the CVT . Back in 2012 I drove a rental Altima with a CVT. Not my first choice but the ride was very smooth . I floared it once and never again because I thought I would blow up the engine . Apparently the simulated shifts make the CVT more attractive. When it comes to reliability I don't know. Is it really that bad ? Hands off or hands on ?
It's Nissan CVT is bad. Their several lawsuits that Nissan owners filed because their CVT goes bad after 60k miles. Also Nissan are facing bankruptcy. Google the info.
@@jraheemjefcoat429 I wouldn't want to buy a car where transmission failures are common. I guess Nissan doesn't stand for reliability.
It just isn't a very engaging drive.
The SV isn't the base model, the S is, but half of the SV and SR models on the lots seem to have premium packages, and this doesn't, so it is pretty close to the bottom.
This may be a dumb question but does anyone know if you can put a cd player in there without disconnecting any features? 🤔 I have so many cds and like listening to physical media if I did choose to.
That is a great question.
You had me at heath bar😜🍫
Which is better tho, the SV or the SR model? Because i still cant decide😭
SR
Nissan makes really smooth performing cars. Still they struggle to sell against Toyota and Honda.
I just bought one!
Interior very similar as the new Altima my dude
Good job Nissan, the Sentra is a decent competitor, however, the Civic still is top dog in this segment.
Great review but the SV is not the base model. It is the middle trim. The base is the S and the top trim is the SR.
Thanks for that.
The dashboard looks like a Kia Stinger. I think now the Sentra is a good competitor to the Corolla and the Civic design wise. Love the interior but air vents at the back would have been appreciated
Heat and ac for rear comes out from under the seats, its hided
The "S" trim is the base model. "SV" is the mid-entry trim.
Thanks for the info.
man!these grocery getters look like sport cars nowadays.this is no exception...granted how many times nissan rebuilt the Sentra.do they have a winner here.
You are so very right!
Why do some people hate the auto start-stop feature that turns off the engine at stoplights, etc? Shouldn't you like it because it saves fuel?
Wear and tear on expensive starter and other components. Also, at long lights, in warm climates, the air conditioning turns off, as well, leaving only the fan.
