2016 Nissan Sentra Performance and Engine

Under the hood, this Sentra is powered by a 1.8-liter 4-cylinder engine paired with Nissan's Xtronic CVT automatic transmission. This combination produces around 130 horsepower — nothing that will pin you to your seat, but more than adequate for freeway merges, city driving, and everything in between. The real advantage of the CVT is fuel efficiency: the 2016 Sentra earns an EPA-estimated 29 MPG city and 37 MPG highway, making it one of the more economical options in the compact segment. For San Bernardino County commuters dealing with stop-and-go traffic on the I-10, Route 66 corridors, or the 215, that kind of fuel economy adds up to real savings over time.
 

Nissan Sentra SV Features and Interior

The SV trim level brings a solid suite of features that make everyday driving more comfortable and connected. Inside, you'll find a touchscreen audio system with Bluetooth connectivity, push-button start, a rearview camera, and automatic climate control — conveniences that make a noticeable difference in the daily driving experience. The Sentra's cabin offers surprising interior space for a compact sedan, with generous rear legroom that often catches passengers off guard. Fold-flat rear seats add cargo flexibility when you need it. The driver-focused dash layout keeps controls intuitive and within easy reach, and the Sentra's relatively quiet cabin makes highway driving noticeably more pleasant than many competitors in this class.
 

Nissan Sentra Reliability and Ownership

The 2016 Nissan Sentra has earned a reputation as a low-drama, low-cost vehicle to own.
