Nissan hit it out of the park!

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.

Great car, but needs more power.

Leasing a 2020 Sentra SR. I love the new redesign inside and out, however, the infotainment screen has a high glare, and not as clear and crisp as other vehicles. The road noise is annoying once you hit 50mph, have to turn up the volume on the radio. The ride quality is much improved from the previous year. I wish Nissan would give three engine options; standard 2.0, hybrid, and a small turbo version aka 250hp. Mainly to appeal to a wider range of customers, maybe even an AWD version as well. They are on the right track.

poorly manufactured.

I love my sentra, don't get me wrong but I bought the vehicle because I needed one and it was all I could get. The biggest issue with the vehicle is that even if you are driving, you can put the car all the way in park. Please don't try this because it can cause you to need a new transmission and it is not covered under warranty. I have OCD and the lines on the car do not line up. The interior door handles have two parts to them and the lines don't line up and are not identical to any of the other doors. so it does not look intentional. If you happen to get one with a hood gap (it comes after opening more than a few times) then nissan will not fix it. Also there is a problem with applecarplay, and I was told that their is not a fix to it. The problem is that it causes your screen to turn blue when in reverse. Some times it will come back right away and sometimes it will take a bit to come back. No dealership will fix it even when I had a video because they "don't know how to fix programming." There is also a hood gap and an issue with the chrome around the doors lining up.

2020 Nissan Sentra is sharp

The 2020 Nissan Sentra is a sharp vehicle. It is way better lookin than its previous year models. Drives good a ton of features at a fair price.

Love the design, temperature comfort and seat adju

I love the power seat adjustments and the air conditioning adjustments. Backup camera and fingertip choices. Luxury and easy to drive. So many fingertip control buttons.

Most Reliable Car I've Owned.

This car met all of my needs. It has plenty of legroom in the front and back, the ride is great compared to other cars I tested.
