2013 to 2020 Used Nissan Sentra Buying Guide

When you buy a used Nissan Sentra, you're getting a compact sedan that has always stood out for comfort, interior space, and reliability. There are many pre-owned Nissan Sentra options on the market today, as this model has been around for a long time. Here are a few reasons why you might like the pre-owned Nissan Sentra. The previous generation of the Sentra was first introduced in 2013 and underwent a significant facelift in 2017 with the launch of the SR Turbo model. Four other versions of the Sentra were available, including the S, SV, SR, and SL.


Impressive performance and efficiency


Let’s look at the engines first. A 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine powered the Nissan Sentra S, SV, SR, and SL and was paired with a continuously variable automatic gearbox in most versions to deliver 124 horsepower and 125 pound-feet of torque. However, the base model's engine delivered 130 horsepower and 128 pound-feet of torque, while the SR Turbo's turbo engine delivers 188 horsepower and 177 pound-feet of torque. A six-speed manual gearbox was also available for the base model and SR Turbo. Aside from their dependability and reliability, both engines and powertrains are very fuel-efficient. In actuality, the Nissan Sentra has always been among the most fuel efficient vehicle in its class. The Nissan Sentra should be high on your list if you are looking for a pre-owned compact sedan with impressive fuel economy.


The interior space of used Nissan Sentra models is another distinctive feature. Despite its compact size, the Nissan Sentra still offers over 400 liters of cargo space, making it one of the most spacious sedans in its class. Nissan Sentra models from 2013 to 2020 were also considered to be the most spacious vehicles in their class. If versatility is important to you, the Nissan Sentra makes a great pre-owned vehicle.
