2021 Nissan Sentra Reviews SummaryFollowing a makeover for the 2020 model year, the Nissan Sentra has ripened into a prime specimen of the compact sedan genre. With competitive safety, technology, and fuel efficiency now supplemented by an attractive exterior and interior design, the Sentra no longer feels like a compromise—it feels like a smart choice. | |
2022 Hyundai Sonata Reviews SummaryDespite having the onerous task of competing against segment mainstays like the Toyota Camry and Honda Accord—and combating waning consumer interest in midsize sedans—the Hyundai Sonata continues to play to its strengths. By offering tremendous value, exceptional quality, and a surprisingly sporty N Line variant, the Sonata can more than hold its own against the segment favourites. | |
