Exterior
Headlights The Sentra looks distinctive, even in the dark. The design features the conjunction of chrome and colour into something jewel-like and dynamic. The headlights project a two-tier design, positioning the turn signal lamps inside a chrome framework while setting off the high-powered halogens for both looks and luminescence.
Taillights
Sentra’s clear-lens taillights add to the Sentra’s sleek appearance. The taillight elements shape light and colour into a visual signature that is unmistakably Nissan.
Wheels
Sentra comes standard with 15” steel wheels with wheel covers, or step it up to the available 16” aluminum-alloy wheels*.
*16” alloy wheels available on 2.0 S and 2.0 SL.
Interior
Divide-N-Hide™ Trunk System
The Divide-N-Hide™ trunk system* allows the trunk to be divided into short term or long term hidden storage compartments. This system creates a hidden compartment for valuables or keeps bags and balls from rolling around. You can even access the space from the cabin. The trunk side also has hooks for grocery bags that can be accessed from the passenger side. When laid flat, the dividing panel can be used to protect carpet from wet or muddy items.
*Available on the 2.0 S with Luxury Package and the 2.0 SL with Moonroof Package
Integrated Overhead CD Holder*

Driving Dynamics
Sentra’s Smart 2.0-Litre Engine Sentra’s engine revs way past shy. Its 140 HP is more accessible than ever, and low-end torque is now your best friend. With a lightweight all-aluminum core, weight is down and muscle is up, while performance-enhancing technologies like microfinished camshafts increase your smooth factor. All the while enjoying a thrifty fuel consumption of around 6.0 L/100 km (47 mpg.)1 No gas-hogging allowed. Just fun, and the entire road you can handle.
12008 fuel economy estimates of 8.2 L/100 km (34 mpg) city/6.0 L/100 km (47 mpg) highway forSentra equipped with Xtronic CVT transmission. Actual mileage may vary with driving conditions – use for comparison only.
175 HP 2.5-Litre 4-Cylinder Engine
Emphasis on class. Sentra's efficient 2.5-litre 4-cylinder gives you V6 levels of refinement. You’ll find an engine-mount system and a balance shaft to reduce vibrations. With 175 HP and 180 lb-ft of torque, performance is even more responsive, while microfinishing techniques make sure things are silky throughout the rev range. And thanks to a high-flow dual-exhaust system, being smooth never sounded better.
Xtronic CVT™ (Continuously Variable Transmission) If you’re into what’s next, Xtronic CVT™ (Continuously Variable Transmission) takes you there, to that “sweet spot” faster. Named the “gold standard” by AutoWeek2, Xtronic CVT is a virtually “gearless” transmission, unlike ordinary automatics. It keeps the engine performing at optimal rpm, for efficient cruising. You’re in for one quick rush of linear acceleration and a super-smooth ride.

Xtronic CVT™ with Manual Mode
Say goodbye to gears with Sentra’s revolutionary Xtronic CVT™ (Continuously Variable Transmission)*. With nearly infinite variable ratios, CVT custom-tailors the engine’s response to meet your demands, giving you a seamless flow of power. Unlike conventional automatic transmissions that experience gear hunting or shift shock, when you press on the accelerator, the CVT will maintain engine speed so you’re always in the sweetest part of the power band. To take full advantage of the extra power, V6 models feature a sport-tuned CVT for even quicker response.
*Xtronic CVT™ is standard on 3.5 S and is available on the 2.5 S and the 3.5 SE.
6-Speed Manual Transmission
Control is king and this standard 6-speed manual transmission keeps you close to the action. Triple-cone synchronizers in first and second make for brisk and precise shifting. While a smaller rpm drop with each upshift means a more seamless response to your demands.
Suspension
When conventional shock absorbers hit a bump, they tend to vibrate, sending little “ripples” through the suspension. But not the Sentra. Using suspension technologies developed for premium luxury sedans and sports cars, Nissan’s “ripple-control” shocks help damp out unwanted vibrations for a smooth ride.
Brakes Sentra’s available Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) helps prevent brakes from locking up during panic stops. It’s offered with Electronic Brake force Distribution (EBD), designed to compensate for any extra weight by increasing rear brake force.
Speed-Sensitive Steering Bring on the curves, you can handle it. Rebound springs help control motion during cornering and curves for a smoother, more secure ride. Sentra also has vehicle speed-sensitive steering for a more solid feel at higher speeds and more power assist at lower speeds.
Safety
Snug Kids®
Another Nissan first U.S. NHTSA-certified ‘Child Passenger Safety’ Technicians have dedicated over 1000 man-hours to checking over 4000 child seat installations in Nissans. The Snug Kids® Child Safety Seat Fit Guide. This guide lists child seats that fit the rear seats of Nissan vehicles, as well as offers invaluable tips on correct installation.
Nissan‘s Advanced Airbag System (AABS)
This comprehensive system includes dual-stage supplemental front airbags with seat belt sensors and an occupant-classification sensor. The inflation rate of these dual-stage airbags adjusts depending on crash severity and seat belt usage. If the front seat is empty, a sensor will deactivate the airbag.1
1Airbags are only a supplemental restraint system; always wear your seat belt. Even with the occupant-classification sensor, rear-facing child restraints should not be placed in the front-passenger's seat. Also, in addition to any other requirement of applicable law, all children 12 and under should ride in the rear seat properly secured in child restraints, booster seats, or seat belts according to their size. Airbags will only inflate in certain accidents; see your owner's manual for more details.
Standard Side-Impact Airbags Sentra’s driver and front-passenger side-impact supplemental airbags are actually built into the seats, so they move with you as you adjust the seat position.1
Standard Side-Curtain Airbags These help protect front and rear outboard passengers in side-impact collisions.
Front-Seat Active Head Restraints By moving up and forward in the event of a rear-end collision, Sentra’s active head restraints help reduce whiplash-type injuries to front-seat occupants.
Seat Belts
Still your primary restraint system, Sentra’s front seat belts feature pre-tensioners that automatically help tighten the belts when the airbags deploy, as well as load limiters that help give a little when too much force is put on the belt.
Zone Body Construction
Pipe-Style Steel Guard Beams are welded into every door to help protection in the event of side impacts.
Hood Buckling Crease allow the hood to buckle at predetermined points, to help prevent it from intruding into the passenger compartment in certain frontal impacts.
Energy-Absorbing Steering Column helps reduce the likelihood of injury in certain frontal impacts.
Front and Rear Crumple Zones help absorb impact energy.
