Discover the Nissan Sentra

The Nissan Sentra is a small sedan. It is known for providing a comfortable ride and having plenty of standard driver-assist technologies. Under the hood, the Sentra is powered by a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine that pumps out 149 horsepower and 146 pound-feet of torque. A continuously variable transmission (CVT) comes tied to the engine. Front-wheel drive is standard.

Some car shoppers may also enjoy knowing that the Sentra comes standard with the Nissan Safety Shield® 360 suite of safety features, as well as tech features like Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™.

Explore the Nissan Altima

If you want to compare the Sentra to the Altima, you may want to start with size. The Nissan Altima is a midsize sedan, so it is bigger than the Sentra. Like the Sentra, the Altima also impresses car buyers with its smooth ride and host of standard driver-assist technologies.

People who explore the Altima will find that it has two potential engine options. You can opt for the standard 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine that generates 188 horsepower and 180 pound-feet of torque, or the available 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine that delivers 248 horsepower and 273 pound-feet of torque. Both engines are mated to a continuously variable transmission (CVT). Front-wheel drive is standard, but the Altima comes available with all-wheel drive.
rn
Anyone who wants to buy or lease a new Altima will also see that it comes standard with the Nissan Safety Shield® 360 suite of safety features. Wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™, as well as Nissan Door-to-Door navigation come available with the Altima.
