2024 NissanSentra S For Sale

The Nissan Sentra compact sedan is one of those cars that simply does the job without fuss or fanfare. Pricing starts at $20,890.

This might be the sort of car we’d expect to see around college towns or in the parking lots of office blocks. It’s a commuter special, performing everyday duties at a reasonable cost. This generation debuted for the 2020 model year, so a minor revamp for 2024 comes right on time.

Not that Nissan has dedicated a whole lot of resources to updating its compact contender. A design tweak here, an upgraded transmission there, plus a few other bits and pieces. In other words, not quite enough to raise the Sentra up from its standing as a minor character in the incredible success stories of the Honda Civic and Toyota Corolla.

We’ve spent hundreds of hours driving and evaluating the current collection of compact cars, including the Nissan Sentra. The test model seen here is a 2024 Sentra SR with the Premium package, Electric Blue Metallic two-tone paint, and a sticker price of $27,825.
