The 2021 Nissan Sentra. An affordable compact sedan with surprisingly upscale styling and standard safety features.

Ongoing reliability nightmare

Fourteen months, more time at the dealer than my driveway. Turbo failed at 8,000 miles, infotainment blank at 11,000 miles, persistent vibration they cannot locate. First and last experience with this brand.

Great daily driver, small gripes

Eight months in — fuel efficiency, comfort, and city traffic handling are all impressive. Gripes: rear legroom slightly tight for tall adults, auto transmission occasionally hesitates. Minor. Overall package excellent.

Solid choice — does most things very well

Hits a sweet spot for me. Refined on the motorway, economical for commuting, practical for family. Only gripe is infotainment slow to connect to phone on startup. Build quality noticeably better than my previous car.

Not what I expected

Reliability has been below the brand's reputation. Two dealer visits in the first year for issues that shouldn't exist on a new car. Interior quality also doesn't match the asking price.

Family road trip approved

Just returned from a 1,200-mile round trip in our 2021 Nissan Sentra with two children and a labrador. Couldn't have asked for a better companion. Boot swallowed everything we packed, rear passenger space was comfortable even for a ten-hour day, and the fuel stops were infrequent. Kids slept most of…

Impressed after 12 months of ownership

I was sceptical about the 2021 Nissan Sentra when I ordered it — felt like I was playing it safe rather than exciting myself — but a year in I'm genuinely impressed. Far more refined than I expected, the seats are comfortable over long distances, and not one unexpected thing has gone wrong. Knocked …

Decent, but not outstanding

The 2021 Nissan Sentra is a solid car that does its job competently without really exciting me. The ride is comfortable, easy to drive, and the safety features work well. However, the interior materials feel a step below what the price suggests, and the engine is noticeably noisy when pushed. Expect…

Ongoing reliability nightmare

I've owned my 2021 Nissan Sentra for fourteen months and it has spent more time at the dealer than on my driveway. The turbo failed at 8,000 miles, the infotainment screen went blank at 11,000 miles, and there's a persistent vibration the dealer cannot locate. This is my first experience with this b…

Surprisingly fun to drive

I bought the 2021 Nissan Sentra primarily for practicality and expected it to be dull. I was wrong. The chassis is genuinely sorted — accurate steering, good body control, and an engine that's eager rather than just adequate. Great seats, solid visibility, and enough tech to feel modern. Makes you l…
