Should I Buy the 2025 Nissan Sentra?
The Sentra faces stiff competition in the compact class — most of which have more driving personality, better fuel economy and alternative powertrain options — but it’s an excellent dollar value with lots of advanced safety features standard. We like the Sentra’s ride comfort, no-nonsense controls and decent trunk space, but its handling and forward visibility could be better.
