Beats The Competition
Competitive pricing in lower trim models.
Cabin roominess and trunk space.
NISMO performance edition adds more aggressive looks.
Our Take
The Sentra remains one of the best selling economy sedans in America, but misses its mark in entirely too many categories. Unfortunately, both the turbo version and the overpriced NISMO edition are sure to disappoint enthusiasts.
Nissan has the means to turn the Sentra into an amazing entry-level sedan.
The low trim levels are good for basic transportation, but the model lacks excitement.
