The Nissan Sentra has been around since 1982, and there’s a reason you see so many old ones on the road still. They pack in value for money, and they tend to be dependable to the point of being hard to kill. The 2026 Nissan Sentra is technically a new generation, but it carries over the previous generation’s engine and dimensions. That means the 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine making 149 horsepower remains the same, but it has a whole new look, a new interior, and new technology as well as a push toward better ride quality.
