2022 Nissan Sentra

Engine Type

Active grille shutters control the airflow when traveling at different speeds, giving optimal fuel economy at all times. Drivers can keep the score of their fuel savings on the Fuel Economy screen through live numbers that can be reset when needed. Enjoy commendable fuel efficiency thanks to Sentra Eco Mode, which features a driver-customizable Eco Mode setting. Drivers can access this through the Advanced Drive-Assist Display, as it allows them to dial into their Sentra for further enhanced comfort and impeccable efficiency during every adventure. 

Each 2022 Nissan Sentra comes standard with a 2.0-liter 4-cylinder unit, giving it a whopping 149 Horsepower and 146 lb-ft of torque. It delivers all the power needed without using any extra fuel. It also offers a balancer shaft that helps to cancel out unwanted engine vibrations for a smoother feel, which was designed to give drivers more purr-factor when sought after! The latest and most updated version of the Xtronic CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission) is paired with the 2022 Sentra’s advanced engine. The Xtronic CVT, which also features Sports Mode, provides more aggressive transmission ration changes for enhanced throttle responses during vigorous driving.

Driving and Handling

New driving technologies added will have buyers driving with ease. Four main technologies highlighted are the Intelligent Engine Brake (which uses the Xtronic CVT to apply engine braking for a smoother stop), Intelligent Trace Control (which reads the situation and can brake each wheel individually for smoother steering through corners if needed), Active Ride Control (which automatically applies brakes and adjusts the engine torque for a smoother ride), Hill Start Assist (keeps the vehicle from rolling backward if on a hill). 

A communicative and responsive dual-pinion electric steering system, and the coveted balance between compliance and responsiveness (thanks to the independent rear multi-link suspension), all help to filter out any harsh or jarring impacts without taking the joy out of driving. The 2022 Sentra was curated with a more sculpted sports-car feel. It’s lower, and wider, with more perfect proportions dedicated to making any drive enjoyable as drivers weave through corners. It also offers quicker steering, sharp handling, and an even smoother ride thanks to the D-shaped steering wheel.

Exterior Features

The Sentra welcomes 4 two-tone colorways that include the Monarch Orange Metallic with Super Black, the Electric Blue Metallic with Super Black, the Gun Metallic with Super Black, and the Aspen White TriCoat with Super Black. Regular Colorways include the Scarlet Ember Tricoat, Rosewood Metallic, Electric Blue Metallic, Super Black, Gun Metallic, Brilliant Silver Metallic, Aspen White TriCoat, and Fresh Powder.

The 2022 Sentra’s contoured and more sculpted sport-car look gives it the right amount of sleekness to get anyone talking about it. The vehicle offers the favored “floating roof” rear pillar treatment that its sibling vehicles have, and can even come in a  contrasting black color when choosing the orange/bronze color option.

Interior Features

Drivers can feel comfortable along with their front passengers thanks to the available Dual-Zone Automatic Temperature Control. Each person can set their own temperature to their liking, without worrying about causing discomfort to anyone else. Enjoy a heated steering wheel, available to keep warm during the colder months, along with heated front seats whenever there’s a chilly morning or if there’s a need for a more soothing ride no matter the occasion. 

With the capability of seating up to five passengers, the 2022 Sentra is the epitome of comfort and relaxation. The vehicle features ZERO GRAVITY front seats which are arguable the most comfortable seats in any vehicle. It sports heated quilted leather front seats and offers a six-way power-adjustable driver’s seat with two-way lumbar support for those long trips anywhere. Rear legroom that measures 34.7-inches allows for greater comfort in the back and includes 14.3 cubic-ft of trunk space.

Standards

With the Push Button Ignition feature, drivers can worry less about losing their keys or spending time trying to locant them. As long as the key is in your vicinity and in the vicinity of the vehicle, just buckle up and push the ignition button to get going. Take advantage of the Remote Engine Start System that allows you to get into their vehicles comfortably as it turns the engine on with the push of one button on the key. Rear Door Alert is another feature that emphasizes the emphasis Nissan puts on safety, as it reminds drivers to check the rear seat when they arrive at their destinations if they’ve placed anything there.

The standards available with every 2022 Nissan Sentra include the impressive Nissan Safety Shield 360, which includes forward-collision warning with automatic braking, blind-spot monitoring, and the rear automatic emergency braking system. The infotainment system allows for Apple Carplay and Android Auto smartphone integration and includes a Bluetooth setup, a 7-inch touchscreen, a USB-A port, and four speakers for the driver’s enjoyment on the road. Standard 16-inch steel wheels, rear brake drums, and cloth upholstery are included as well.

Options

There are 4 trim levels to consider when buying the 2022 Nissan Sentra (The S, The SV, and the SR), but it is recommended to consider the Midnight Edition. LED headlights along with the sleek and mysterious look, make it the perfect partner on the road for any journey. It boasts a rear spoiler and diffuser, unique grille treatment, 18-inch alloy wheels in an all-black finish, new badges, and extra aerodynamic pieces with an exhaust tip.
