After 3 months of putting our 2024 Nissan Sentra through its paces, we are finally saying goodbye to this long-term test vehicle. With 6,700 MotorWeek miles on the odometer and multiple road trips under its belt, we have truly gotten to know this compact sedan inside and out.
One standout feature of the Sentra is its nimble nature, allowing it to effortlessly navigate traffic whether on daily commutes or weekend getaways. The 2.0-liter inline-four engine provides adequate power for passing maneuvers, although the CVT can be a bit laggy during sudden acceleration.
Despite a few minor gripes such as connectivity issues and a slightly buzzy transmission, the Sentra has proven to be a reliable and efficient companion. With a combined fuel economy of 34.5 mpg, the sedan exceeded our expectations in terms of efficiency.
Priced starting in the low $20,000s, the Nissan Sentra offers excellent value for money, especially in well-equipped trim levels like the SR model we tested. Its sport-tuned suspension adds a touch of fun to the driving experience, making it a joy to push through spirited back road adventures.
As we bid farewell to our 2024 Nissan Sentra, we can’t help but reflect on the memories made during our time together. From daily commutes to long-haul road trips, this compact sedan has proven itself to be a versatile and capable vehicle.

Overall, the Nissan Sentra has left a lasting impression as a true bargain and an enjoyable vehicle to drive.
