QOTD: What Do You Want To Know About The 2026 Nissan Sentra?
I am in Arizona to test the 2026 Nissan Sentra -- hence the relatively late-ward shift of posts today -- and I want to know what you want to know about the car.
Ask a legit (aka non trolling question) and I will try to get it answered, though there are no promises. The embargo on this one is also a bit long, so some questions can't be answered just yet.
That said, I will do what I can to help y'all out.

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

CVT, CVT, CVT.
Isn't that a problem from about a decade ago?
Is Nissan just using exactly the same design and materials?
Does anyone have any actual data on CVT failures for Nissans by year, and model?
Or is this just more of 'the engine in my cousin's Vega blew up so I won't buy any GM product'. Or 'the transmission in our 1995 Dodge Caravan crapped out so I won't buy any Chrysler products'. Or 'I once knew someone who owned a Hyundai Pony, so I won't buy and Hyundais'.
Finally, does this generation of Sentra have an available manual transmission option?
I wish Nissan would offer the manual (at least as an option) transmission version on the Sentra. They do in Canada. I like to cohesive styling of the Versa,Sentra,Altima. The interior of most Nissans in my opinion are well done and intuitive.
