The Nissan Sentra hit US showrooms in 1982 and became an instant success, thanks in no small part to its fuel efficiency. Over the years, it has taken a number of forms—sedan, coupe, wagon and hatchback—but the current Sentra is available only as a sedan after a complete redesign for 2013.
While the Sentra offers lots of value for the money and optional features you might not expect—automatic climate control, for instance—the compact car hasn’t thrilled the motoring press with its driving dynamics.
