2007 Nissan Sentra price goes north
2007 Nissan Sentra
The facelifted 2007 Nissan Sentra will sell at a significantly higher price than the outgoing model. According to the Japanese company, the new version of the compact sedan is going to bear a hefty price tag of $15,365.
Although still more or less affordable, the base model of the car is $1560 more expensive than the current model. By the way, a version equipped with an automatic gearbox will set you back at even more impressive $16,265.
Sentra’s with Nissan’s well-known CVT transmission are a hundred bucks cheaper and will set you back for $16,165 with shipping included.
The price increase is justified by the fact that the 2007 MY vehicle features larger body, offers a spacer interior with more leg room and higher luggage capacity.
It is also powered by a new 2.0-liter engine, which will replace the current 1.8-liter powerplant. With its 130hp of maximum power output and 140 lb-ft (190 Nm) of torque, the engine offers bearable 0-62mph acceleration time of 9 seconds and returns fuel economy of 28 / 34 mpg in city and highway cycles respectively.
Competing against the new Chevrolet Cobalt, Mitsubishi Lancer, Honda Civic and Pontiac G5, the new Sentra returns better performance, comparable cargo volume and, to my knowledge, offers better overall driving experience.
