Refinement, comfort and versatility
The 2022 Sentra features a refined interior that features quality and comfort – creating a high-quality experience for driver and passengers that is unexpected in the compact sedan segment.

Attention to detail and craftsmanship can be found throughout the interior, with satin chrome aluminum accents, the intuitive placement of controls, contrast seat stitching and a standard D-shaped steering wheel. They combine to give the interior a premium feel, added to what is among the quietest cabins in its class.

Extra care is taken on driver touch points like the feel of the steering wheel in the driver's hand, the smooth operation of the dials and switches and available quilted leather-appointed seats.

Standard comfort and convenience features include Nissan's renowned Zero Gravity front seats, which help optimize posture positioning for enhanced comfort – along with best-in-class front legroom4 - during long distance driving. A 6-way manual driver's seat and 4-way manual front passenger's seat are standard, with a 6-way power driver's seat with 2-way lumbar support also available. The rear seat is a 60/40 split fold-down design. Heated front seats and a heated steering wheel are also available – part of Sentra's unexpected premium content.

Seating materials range from standard or upgraded cloth to Prima-TexTM leatherette and sport cloth with orange stitching (SR grade). Premium quilted leather-appointed seating (front and rear) is offered on SV grades as part of the SV Premium Package.

Other interior features include front and rear door pockets, front center console with padded armrest and cupholders, rear seat armrest with cupholders, tilt and telescopic steering column, power windows with driver's one-touch auto up/down with auto reverse, power door locks with auto-locking feature, remote keyless entry with push button start, RearView Monitor and Rear Door Alert5. Also available are Nissan Intelligent Key® and remote engine start6.

Enhanced convenience and connectivity
The 2022 Sentra is designed to make owners feel in control and safely connected to the world around them. At the heart of that connectivity is a 4.2-inch digital multi-information driver's display and a standard 7.0-inch color touchscreen with Bluetooth® Hands-free Phone System, Apple CarPlay® integration and Android Auto™. Available is a 7.0-inch digital Advanced Drive-Assist Display paired to a floating 8.0-inch NissanConnect® touchscreen center display.

In addition, Sentra offers driver assist technologies like available Intelligent Cruise Control and class-exclusive available Intelligent Around View® Monitor7 for a more confident drive.

Standard audio on Sentra is an AM/FM system with four speakers and ÚSB connection port (Type A) for iPod® and other compatible devices. Sentra SV and SR grades add two front ÚSB ports (1 Type A, 1 Type C) and one charge-only ÚSB port (Type A) at the rear of the center console. Other available audio systems include a 6-speaker AM/FM system and an 8-speaker Bose® Premium Audio system. Also available is SiriusXM® Radio (SiriusXM® subscription required, sold separately).

A confident driving experience
The 2022 Sentra provides a confident driving experience through a combination of generous power and a suspension design that carefully balances responsive handling and occupant ride comfort.

The fuel-efficient 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine is rated at 149 hp and 146 lb.-ft of torque, backed by the latest generation Xtronic transmission with a D-mode step shift program that simulates shifts and helps provide enhanced drivability with a stable, natural and crisp shift feel.

Fuel economy8 is rated at 29 mpg city, 39 mpg highway and 33 mpg combined for the S and SV grades and 28 mpg city, 37 mpg highway and 32 mpg combined for the SR grade.

Sentra's top-level driving dynamics start with the independent rear suspension, which is matched to a MacPherson strut front suspension. Twin-tube shock absorbers are utilized on every corner. A dual pinion rack electric power steering system aids steering feel and maneuverability. Sentra SV and SR grades include 4-wheel disc brakes.

Every Sentra also includes Nissan's advanced Intelligent Trace Control system. The system uses intelligent control logic and high-response brake actuators to lightly brake the inside front wheels during cornering (as required) to increase yaw-moment. The cumulative of all these changes is enhanced handling, stability and ride comfort, providing a greater sense of driver confidence and control.

Several stylish wheel and tire combinations are offered, starting with 16-inch wheels with 205/60R16 all-season tires with 205/60R16 all-season tires on S grade and 16- inch aluminum-alloy wheels 205/6R16 all-season tires on SV grade.
