2021 Nissan Sentra®
Overview
The Nissan Sentra has been long celebrated for being a perfect daily driver. Last year, Nissan redesigned this popular sedan to better fit the design direction of the brand. The new exterior design is complemented by a more luxe interior and improved safety features. Still, the Sentra remains a great option for drivers seeking fuel economy, technology, and comfort.
The Perfect Ride For...
Young professionals. The Nissan Sentra is smaller than your typical crossover or full-size sedan, so it’s easy to navigate city streets and the fuel economy makes it great for road trips. The ample technology meets the needs of any young driver who needs the latest connectivity options and the style is mature enough to make it feel as though you’ve graduated from your college car. However, it’s still got the reliability you’d expect from Nissan, and the luxurious interior looks as though it belongs in a much more expensive car.
Drive and Handling
The 2021 Nissan Sentra is powered by a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine that boasts up to 149 horsepower and 146 pound-feet of torque, giving it 20 percent more horsepower and 15 percent more than previous generations. Even more impressive, the Sentra made these power gains without increasing fuel consumption. Engine vibrations have been reduced thanks to a balancer shaft that smooths out the rumble of the engine, for a more comfortable ride.
Thanks to the sport sedan suspension and advanced steering system, the 2021 Sentra feels more confident and agile on the road. With the independent rear multi-link suspension that filters out any shocks or impacts, you’ll be rewarded with a smooth and comfortable ride. Capable of up to 39 mpg on the highway and 29 mpg in the city, the Sentra is ideal for people who drive a lot and want to keep their fuel costs down.*
Key Features
Nissan Safety Shield® 360
The standard new Nissan Safety Shield 360 offers a complete suite of safety technologies to help you stay safer and more confidently command the road. Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection and Rear Automatic Braking can step in before the driver has a chance to react to possible collisions. Lane Departure monitors lane markings and can warn you when you drift from your lane. Blind Spot Warning keeps an eye out for you where you may not be able to see. If a car is in your blind spot, you’ll be alerted. High Beam Assist instinctively activates the high beam lights when you need them while deactivating them if it senses oncoming traffic. Rear Automatic Braking works to scan the area behind your vehicle. And if it detects an object you may not see, it can automatically apply the brakes to avoid or lessen the severity of an impact.
Connectivity
No modern car is complete without the technology to keep you connected on the road, and the Nissan Sentra delivers. With available Android Auto™ and Apple CarPlay®, you can seamlessly connect your smartphone for access to your favorite apps and playlists, as well as your contacts for texting and calling. An available USB-C port and Bluetooth® connectivity give you even more flexibility for connecting to your infotainment system. The available Bose® Premium Audio System features 8 speakers and can reproduce your favorite songs with the clarity you’d expect from a professional concert hall.
Alternative Options
Need more space but still want the technology and luxurious comfort of the Sentra? The Nissan Altima is what you’re looking for. The available VC-Turbo engine balances performance and fuel economy for a sedan that feels like a sporty yet safe option. For those who want a higher seating position for a better view of the road, the unique and stylish Nissan Kicks offers a commanding position and nimble handling.
