Sentra 2016

Throughout more than 3 decades, the Nissan Sentra has been among the standards of the Japanese manufacturer in America. Hence, the Hall of the city of Los Angeles has been chosen to teach the continent its new countenance and updated technological proposal with the intention of doing in front of opponents increasingly better prepared.

While it is a local model, the Nissan Sentra two thousand and sixteen now adopts global design language of the house. The V-shaped radiator grille and sharp headlights are the protagonists of updating; in the rear just change pilots and, to a lesser extent, the bumper.

At least in U.S.A., equipping Nissan Sentra is quite complete in relation to their cost. For less than US $ veinte.000 -17,700 € - already provides navigation system, infotenimientoNissanConnect mobile applications, monitoring and alarm deceased angle cross traffic, other than electric controls, air conditioning and 6 airbags.

The equipment options can be extended to ignition button and opening doors unlocked, Bose sound system with 8 altífonos, heated seats covered in leather, automatic dual zone climate control, sunroof, collision alarm and adaptive cruise control.

As regards its mechanical configuration, it is offered only with a gasoline engine 1.8-liter hundred thirty CV and one hundred seventy three Nm of torque, with an option to manual 6-speed gearbox or automatic type CVT. Leveraging its aesthetic and technological update also strengthened the chassis to increase rigidity and promote stability at high speeds.

The Nissan Sentra continue being exclusive to the other side of the Atlantic. Its sales will begin in its most essential during the first quarter of two thousand and sixteen markets. In Spain, the site is covered indirectly by the Nissan Pulsar, with which it shares platform.

Engine and transmission.

Bring a small engine 1.8-liter 4-pipe hundred thirty horsepower and one hundred twenty-eight lbs-ft of torque. A 6-speed manual transmission is standard on the S and FE + S, whereas an automatic CVT comes with leftover models.

Variable transmission continuously (CVT) has been readapted for better responsiveness, as their suspension.

The EPA estimated mpg combined reach thirty (twenty-seven in city / highway thirty six) with the manual gearbox. With the CVT up to thirty-two mpg combined (twenty-nine in city / highway thirty eight). The economy model, the FE + S, achieves a good thirty four mpg combined (thirty in city / highway forty).

Security

For two thousand and sixteen, Nissan added but safety while comes with antilock brakes, stability control, monitoring tire pressure, side airbags for the front seats, side curtain airbags long-term, active front head restraints and rearview camera.

The SL comes standard with a blind spot monitor with rear cross-traffic alert, while free features include collision mitigation system with automatic braking, all these systems are a rare benefit in this class.

INTERIOR DESIGN

On the inside I found that taller passengers will be fine comfortable, something not so common in a solid. Both the front and rear seats are class-leading space case. Indeed, the back rooms are so extensive that the Sentra almost feels like a midsize sedan from the back seat. The materials are of quality.

There is a new steering wheel and certain elements of the revised instrument panel, while an information screen for the driver high resolution to the SV, SR and S.L. models added ..

The interior features that stand out include mobile intelligent application integration through NissanConnect, which lets you do want Google via touch screen interface 8/5 inches. The boot capacity is 15.1 cubic feet, making it comparable to some midsize sedans

ON THE HIGHWAY

I could try in the elevated areas of Newport Beach and along a stretch of highway five. stealthier than the preceding is appreciated, while accelerating moderately at highway speeds. The CVT is among the best automatic transmissions on the market. That itself is not to hurry with her.

The path of this Nissan is quite smooth and cornering is respectable, responsive and reassuring direction. The brakes are also more convenient and give plenty of stopping power and pedal feel intuitive.

The Nissan Sentra two thousand and sixteen not necessarily represent the segment of solid sedans, but that does not mean it is a penalty area. Perhaps most notable is the back seat of the Sentra offers more space and comfort that rivals some midsize sedans, and the wood is very generous. Indeed it is not an exciting car, but its power train is low consumption of combustion air and generally looks really good.

CONCLUSION

The new Nissan Sentra two thousand and sixteen, already resembles the Altima and Maxima sedans triumphant. Its exterior design has been revised and now enters another category, and with a delicious and new technology and security features that are a great choice for buyers inside.
