When we at Route 46 Nissan found out our esteemed Japanese automaker had plans to refresh its midsize sedan, the Nissan Altima, for the 2016 model year, we initially didn't know what to make of the news. We were so fond of the outgoing iteration, we weren't sure how it could be improved.

Then, the 2016 model arrived; and in an instant, we knew why Nissan took the tack it did. Glean further insight to the Altima's makeover by watching the video below:

The Altima's beautiful base model definitely delivers the goods in a major way…

With its 3.8-liter twin-turbocharged, intercooled V-6 engine, capable of 600 horsepower and more than 481 pound-feet of torque, the Nissan GT-R can accelerate from a standstill to 60 mph in less than three seconds.

When it comes to keeping its sporty and modern lineup--well--sport and modern, Nissan has taken to frequent updates of its top models. Over the past year, the Maxima, Altima, and Titan have all debuted with new technology and sheet metal. Now, it's time for the compact Sentra to join the fray.

Is the revamped 2015 Nissan Sentra the most spectacular small sedan on the road today? Well, if it isn't already, it's definitely well on its way.

Don't simply take our word for it, though. Instead, get the straight dope from our pals at Autotrader. Their review of the Sentra is below:

At the summit of the Sentra's trim totem pole is where you'll discover the decked-out SL model. It fuses some of the best elements of the lower trim levels into one amazing package.

With a set of advanced safety technologies behind the wheel of popular Nissan models like the coveted Nissan Rogue, you'll feel safer than ever before while you're on the road.

Nissan Safety Shield technology helps to monitor your movement on the road, respond to potentially harmful situations, and protect you when a collision is unavoidable...

Although the leaves are beginning to turn and our days have grown shorter, summer isn't officially over yet...so that means there is still time for some exciting adventures. Why not drive a car that's just as exciting? It's time to hop behind the wheel of a Nissan and go exploring.
