The Nissan Sentra will remain virtually unchanged for the 2025 model year. That’s news, because the Sentra may prove to be the long success in Nissan’s sedan lineup and, before long, the last Nissan four-door car standing.
A recent report says Nissan will kill off the rest of its sedan lineup within two years but keep the plucky little Sentra indefinitely. With America increasingly a nation of SUV drivers, Nissan could bet its future on its best-selling Rogue compact SUV, the midsize Pathfinder SUV, the smaller Kicks crossover, and other sport utilities.
But the Sentra will survive, the report says, because it often serves as a shopper’s first car.
Our editors have found it a reasonable one – expert test driver Colin Ryan calls it “a commuter special, performing everyday duties at a reasonable cost.”
For 2025, Nissan will make nearly no changes to the Sentra. The 2025 model arrives with the same styling, 149 horsepower 4-cylinder engine, and trim lineup as the 2024 model.
Mid-grade SV versions now get the option of NissanConnect, which adds in-car Wi-Fi and lets you control some car functions with a smartphone app. Buyers also get three free oil changes in the first two years/24,000 miles of ownership.
2025 Nissan Sentra Pricing
All prices include a mandatory $1,140 destination charge.
Since the 2024 and 2025 Sentra sedans are nearly identical, shoppers might want to try negotiating the price down on an outgoing 2024 model instead of buying a 2025 version. Dealers sometimes accept lower prices on the older model year to make space for newer versions, even if the two are substantially the same.
