The 2010 Nissan Sentra ranks 24 out of 29 Affordable Small Cars. This ranking is based on our analysis of 63 published reviews and test drives of the Nissan Sentra, and our analysis of reliability and safety data.
For 2010 Nissan has reworked its pricing structure so that all six trims of the new Sentra are offered with more features at a lower starting price, which means a savings ranging from a of little over $100 on the base trim to over $1,000 on the top-of-the-line models. That said, between its underpowered engine and bland exterior styling, there are definitely other options that are worth a look.
Little has changed about the 2010 Sentra since its redesign three years ago, but there are a few changes. To begin with, the Sentra receives a slightly updated look with new headlights, taillights and a redesigned grille. All trims are also getting higher quality cloth interiors.
The 2010 Nissan Sentra has a lot going for it -- decent gas mileage, a comfortable and roomy cabin and an impressive list of interior features -- so reviewers agree that it's a good choice as a daily driver. Nonetheless, for the most part, the automotive press is unimpressed with the Sentra. The biggest complaints concern the unimpressive engine and abundant interior plastics. If performance is important to you, you should definitely check out the Mazda3 for both its higher "fun-to-drive" quotient and starting price of about $1,000 less than the Sentra. The Volkswagen Jetta is also worth considering for its considerably smoother ride, although you will pay about $1,000 extra for the additional comfort. Moreover, if you're looking for a higher quality interior with a similarly long list of features in the same general price range, have a look at the Volkswagen Rabbit.
The Sentra's four basic trims (2.0, 2.0 S, 2.0 SR and 2.0 SL) are offered with a two-liter four-cylinder engine while the two more upscale trims (SE-R and SE-R Spec V) boast stronger engines.
