Welcome!
In Canada anyway, i've found the government mpg ratings fluctuate yearly, even when no changes were made, so take the ratings with a grain of salt.
Also i think, Nissan has added a planetary gear set after the cvt to reduce the gearing and engine revs for the new Versas[2012 and up i believe], and people are seeing a real world difference in their mpgs with cvts. Same with the 2013 Altimas i believe, and probably the 2013 Sentras too. So you can expect some nice results, if ya don't wear out the floorboards under the accelerator lol. edit so far my 16 year old has been kind to our Versa and Altima, so i hear ya
