Product Overview

Nissan Sentra / Sylphy 7 (code B17) is an entry-level compact sedan in production from 2012 to 2019. It was available with a range of inline-4 engines that displaced 1.6 to 1.8 liters.
Styling-wise, Nissan was finally making some progress, even though at this point it was lagging its Japanese compatriots and perhaps even the Koreans. The small I4 engines were not very competitive, and the automatic transmission of choice was a CVT.
A plus is the small 10.4m (34.1ft) turning circle.
