mid sized sedan
It is a mid sized sedan with good gas mileage- good interior space, reliable and a good price. It is a great choice for the older couple because it feels safe and comfortable.

Good family sedan
It's bigger, yet lighter than its predecessor, with a more refined style. The cabin boasts higher-quality materials, even more passenger space and a full roster of technology features. The engine actually has less power this time around, but it's more fuel efficient

2015 Nissan Sentra

by Dianne2458 on 10-15-2017
Wonderful car all around!
This ride is purely a gem. It is very robust, rides very well on the highway, and is top notch on mileage. This car has air conditioning, heated seats, and push-button start. The car looks after you with the option of manual or automatic headlights on. Buttons for Bluetooth, radio, and apps selections are on the steering wheel for easy access. Also has an indicator to let you know how many miles/kilometers you can drive with amount of gas left. Remote is a smart key start. With this type of key, it is impossible to lock your keys in the car, because you need the smart key to lock it, plus the car will not lock if the smart key is left inside the car. Only thing is to make sure you have a spare battery to prevent intermittent issues with starting. All in all it is a great ride!

Sporty sedan
With 175hp under the hood, this car sure makes driving around cool. CVT transmission seems to 'sing' a bit after the 120 000km mark, perhaps it's normal wear?
This car is certainly not for hot-headed teens who might lose their license quickly thanks to the sporty performance. It may look like nothing from the outside, but the power and performance will surprise many....

2005 Nissan Sentra

Reliable
It doesn't turn heads but it gets you from point a to b with little to no problems. I've had the car over 12 years and have spent virtually no money to repair it. I will buy another sentra one day. If you are a person who wants 'reliability' and doesn't care about flashy cars this is the one for you!

2016 Nissan Sentra

Trim: 17 inch
by Good5028 on 06-18-2017
Great fuel efficiency and interior
I find that the Nissan Sentra has pretty good fuel efficiency,which helps reduce fuel cost and that is important for me. Additionally ,it has a very spacious interior which is fantastic as i tend to pickup multiple relatives and the interior helps make sure they are all comfortable.In fact, its proportions are so large that the EPA classifies it as a midsize car, despite Nissan designating it as a compact. Head- and legroom are generous, even for taller passengers. The Sentra's 37.4 inches of legroom make for really comfy long distance rides.

2012 Nissan Sentra

by Millie1865 on 06-12-2017
Good and versatile
We have the car for a few years and are very satisfied with the purchase. Lack of fuel economy is probably the greatest shortcoming of this car, but it gets more efficient in highways. It can fit two car seats easily with another (thin) person on the back seat if well arranged. Maintenance hasn't been a problem. We recommend it strongly.

by sleefe on 06-08-2017
its a very comfortable and roomy ride for a little economical car
I love my sentra sv,its very roomy and has all the buttons I need on the stearing wheel.heated seats are great back up cam is a bonus gets 45 miles per gallon and gets oil changes every 8000 kms.Lots of leg room in the back for my son who is 6foot 2 and it can fit two hockey bags in the trunk. The only negative thing I would have to say about it, is because it is so light of a frame when its windy out it gets pushed around easy and makes a weird sound where the passenger mirror is when its windy. Also I find it hard to sync my iPhone at times.

Great ride
My sentra was passed onto me from my grandfather. Even for being 15 years old, it's a great ride. Suspension could be better, rear brakes have always been an issue but really haven't had many problems with it even with the 2 major accidents it has been through. Recommend for someone learning stick.

Owned this car for 5-6 years, haven't had a SINGLE problem with it. Great build quality, great on gas, overall an amazing car to run around in. There is a few things Nissan could have done better (i.e. looks of the car, slightly more appealing interior for younger generations), but over all a very practical and sturdy built car. Can't go wrong with Japanese!

Great Car .. Great Exprience
I drove my 2009 Nissan Sentra for almost two years, never had any issue with it. Very reliable car and cheap on gas. I haven't own any Nissan product other than the Sentra, but it really encourages me to try other products from Nissan.

Nissan's best kept secret
This is the most surprising ride I've ever had with a Nissan.
this SE-R has a 2.5L motor, the same as a the much larger Altima. It has a manual mode with paddle shifters. This car is REALLY FUN to drive.

2010 Nissan Sentra

by TallguyEd on 02-26-2016
Great Daily Driver
I have been driving a nissan sentra for about a year now and have no real complaints about this car. It is exactly what you would expect it to be. You get in the car every morning, it starts and you drive to work. I wont get you there faster or slower than any other car, but you definitely feel connected to the car as you can feel everything that happens with it. This is in no way a bad thing as the car is extremely comfortable and quiet. Basically as long as you pay attention to the car and the feedback it gives you, you will never have any surprises. It is a surprisingly roomy car. I am 6'5" tall and I fit comfortably with someone sitting in the seat behind me. The stock sound system is again exactly what you would expect from your average daily driver and I have no complaints.

In summary:

-Great on gas
- Very confortable
- Perfect daily driver
- Roomy interior and trunk
- Dual folding down rear seats
- An average car that you can rely on

1993 Nissan Sentra

Trim: classic
by designdog on 11-25-2015
Just getting to appreciate this little gem an $800 winter beater
BC car so body is good by Canadian standards ( from ontario) since no salt. I suspect a lot of them were crushed due to rust back east which was a shame.
Owned a lot of cars over the years
Best way to describe this particular sedan is a light weight version of a small mercedes. Feels rigid, compliant over bumps, generally nimble and eager despite the (extended) classic model B12 only having 70 horses and an auto.
would probably be quite fun with the 5 speed
Had a few issues with the mechanical door locks but easily repairable due to simple design and no power features.
great visibility
quality plastics as only the japanese can do apparantly
ie no cracked dash covers broken glove boxes or cupholders as per euro cars Ive had.
real glass headlight covers that stay crystal clear
and no rediculous rubber timing belts buried deep in the engine.
timing chains for ever!!
Got lucky with just 142000 km but feels like its just getting started.

Think twice
The car is an average vehicle, we liked the ease of getting in and out. Unfortunately we put many km on the first year we had it. The rear tires wore out quickly. With a little research we found out that they are famous for poor alignment in the rear, a known problem. We managed to get it fixed, only $500! The exhaust broke right where it joins the muffler, another known problem - they wanted $300 to fix that, a friend who owns a garage fixed it for just over 100. The rad fans quit, $27 per fuse, took 4 to find out the problem, replaced fans - 700 new, 100 used, with some free fuses. Throttle control doesn't work right - 700 - 900 new- still coping with that one
