Should I Buy the 2022 Nissan Sentra?

The Sentra faces stiff competition in the compact class, but it’s a decent value with lots of standard advanced safety features. We like the Sentra’s ride comfort, interior quality and multimedia usability, but its handling and forward visibility could be better.
