Positive Review

"Excellent value"

Traded in my Audi A4 for new 2020 Nissan Sentra. Although I loved my Audi, I do not feel that I’ve compromised at all. The SV premium model is fully equipped! It is like driving a mini Maxima. I love it. It has plenty of pep. The seats are very comfortable. All the controls are right there. It does not have Navigation, but I usually use Waze on my phone which connects through Bluetooth and iplay on the console. Great safety features too. I have driven a lot of rental cars. All different makes and models. Nissan cars are my favorite on the rental lots and they have hit it out of the park with the 2020 Nissan Sentra.

Underrated compact car

I would have never bought a Sentra until this new generation. The older generations were hot garbage. This one really was done right. Just as everyone mentions, it's a mini-Maxima. I originally drove it as a loaner car and was really impressed. I liked it better than the Altima. The interior design is perfect with great soft touch points all around. It is a little slow but that's what you get in this compact car market anyways. I have had zero issues other than regular maintenance and have 57k on it in less than 3 years. I would definitely buy again, except this time with the cold weather package.

Wouldn’t recommend

I bought a 2022 Nissan new off the lot. Slapped 35,000 miles on it in a year. Did all the maintenance on time such as oil changes,tire rotations, filters, bleeding brake lines, ect. Here’s what I had to replace once it hit 25,000-30,000. The strut bearings, wheel bearing, and motor mount. Oh and the seat also ripped just from wear and tear. So the dealership in the end crushed my rocker panels from negligence and I sold it back for what I owed and now have a Honda civic.

Beautiful car looks like a maxima but lacks power.
Pros

Comfortable, beautiful, safe, & affordable.

Cons

Slow, wind noise at high speeds, steering is too s

My 2022 Midnight black SR has been reliable and enjoyable but im embarrassed of how slow it is. Wish they would of made a turbo version especially since Nissan makes sports car like the new 400Z or GTR. It has the best exterior, interior, & safety features in my opinion. As long as it lacks power it will always fall short in its class.

Safety Experience

This car is made to be a good looking modern version of the older sentra model. However, the performance is lacking compared to other economical sedans because in certain driving environements other cars will drive fastly past the car making it somehow dangerous with the rear view being compromised when cars move so fast around the car. The tech is good though.

Nice Maxima, you mean that’s a Sentra?!?
Pros

People think it’s a Maxima or Altima!! 35 MPGs

Cons

Lacks power, 147HP is all she’s got

Sleek updated design, almost identical in appearance and size as an Altima. 35 MPGs on average!! Lots of tech and safety improvements

Nissan came a long way and delivered with this one

This car is truly my first new car purchase. Everything from inside and out is amazing. Eco Mode is great. Sports mode even though i dont use it that much, feels great and powerful enough. For the S Base model, its a great car and fuel economy is the best of the best. I would recommend this car and any other trim SR SV even Midnight Edition because you truly get what you pay for and more.
