Overview & Reviews
The 2010 Nissan Sentra receives a new optional navigation system (late availability) that includes a 5-inch color screen and real-time traffic information. Other tweaks include revised headlights and taillights for all models, a new grille and front fascia for the 2.0, 2.0 S and 2.0 SL, a standard 4.3-inch color-display audio head unit with iPod and Bluetooth controls for 2.0 SL and the SE-R models, and an optional back-up camera for the navigation system. Also, the 2.0SL receives standard stability control, but its leather upholstery is now optional rather than standard. Finally, the slight fuel economy increase provided by last year's "FE+" trim level has been added to all models with the 2.0-liter engine and continuously variable transmission (CVT).
- Spacious seating, intuitive control layout, varied engine lineup.
- Droning acceleration with CVT, flinty ride, forgettable handling in all but the SE-R models.

Underrated! - 2010 Nissan Sentra
By lawrence - October 5 - 9:30 pmPut my first 800 miles driving from south Florida to East Tennessee. Entering North Carolinas Appalachian mountain region on interstate 26, this little Sentra with 16 inch tires and CVT delivered exceedingly smooth and capable performance for a supposed compact. I wanted to buy American and wish Chevy would build such a great compact now that America needs to conserve gas more than ever - but they seem too interested in pushing their "onstar" instead of the virtues of the car itself. Looked at Kia Forte, Ford focus and Mazda3. The Mazda3 would have been my second choice. Honda Civic was not even considered because it, along with VW, in my opinion, were way overpriced in this segment.

Best Deal - 2010 Nissan Sentra
By ashes - August 31 - 3:16 pmI have had this car for just about 2 months now and I LOVE IT. The gas mileage is great, I am averaging about 31 with 50% city/50% highway. It is roomier than any other compact car I have had, I get more compliments on the design as well. I looked at several others in the same class, but always came back to the sentra and it has not let me down.

Simply love the Sentra. - 2010 Nissan Sentra
By Roger - August 11 - 1:00 amJust took delivery in mid-July, but very impressed so far. The Continuously Variable Transmission fascinated me and it is so far ahead of competitor offerings. Initial impressions are: dash and controls are well designed and positioned, the ride is as good or better than much larger and more expensive cars, ample storage compartments, quality is evident with exterior finish and interior upholstery, surprising amount of head and legroom, and the gas mileage is all that had been hoped. I have long been a GM owner, but now a Nissan convert. I never expected such value, quality, and amenities for the price. I wanted value and Nissan delivered. This is a second car, but now my favorite.

2010 Sentra 2.0S - 2010 Nissan Sentra
By haveaclue - August 9 - 3:16 pmWhat a nice car, especially with the I- pod interface as standard. Rides nice/quiet on the road. Base price was down $600.00 from 2009 in the S line. Been driving GM cars for the last 20 years, purchased 10 Brand New, and with the new change they are not for me no longer, cmon a Colbalt more money then the Sentra. Way to go Nissan!

2010 first impressions - 2010 Nissan Sentra
By new buyer - July 23 - 10:20 pmI really like the ride and handling of the Sentra S. I test drove several others and preferred the Sentra as it had a smooth ride and plenty of power. The Convenience Package is great, especially the keyless system. The VDC Package is also excellent . These 2 options on the 2.0 S make it great to drive and easy to use. It just felt more of a solid ride to me than the others. Excellent runabout or road ride with safety ratings.

It has it all over the 07 Matrix - 2010 Nissan Sentra
By Dennis - December 9 - 8:23 pmIve only had this car a few days so the above numbers can and will change. I traded in my 07 Matrix which was under powered and had an extremely loud engine. It was literately trying me crazy. Especially on the highway The car had only 25000 miles on it. I have to say when test driving the the SR it made me realized I could no longer tolerate my noisy but dependable Matrix.

2nd Nissan bought in a month time - 2010 Nissan Sentra
By Jay - October 4 - 10:00 amI bought an Altima 2.5 SL last month and absolutely found this to be a joy to drive. I didnt want to buy another Altima but I was surely sold on Nissan so I bought a Sentra. I enjoy driving this as much as the Altima. I would sincerely like to offer a word to a new car looker, buy one of these cars. You will be pleasantly surprised. I came real close to buy a Honda Accord, but found that the pricing and quality are far superior in the Nissan. I didnt even give the Civic a look see.

Love my Sentra - 2010 Nissan Sentra
By Jay - January 10 - 10:23 pmI love my Nissan Sentra. It has a lot of interior room, handles well, and gets good gas mileage. One of the best things I like about it is the CVT transmission. It is so smooth and feels like a turbine. Handles well in the snow and ice. Dealer said they are so high on this transmission that they extended the warranty on them to 125,000 miles. Ive put a lot of miles on it in the past 2 months and am very pleased with it.
