2019 Nissan Sentra SR TURBO 4dr Sedan (1.6L 4cyl Turbo CVT)
UPDATE: 10/9/19: 9mos later & the drivers seat is still hard as a rock and causes my right leg to go numb and created a constant stiffness in my lower back. The sides of the seat curve upwards and my rear end rests on the highest part while driving. My masseuse even asked if I sat on thick Wallet because I was so stiff on one side! Anyone who rides in the passenger seat says it’s … uncomfortable and stiff also.
The Gigantic headrest which pushed my chin to my chest and caused a pinched nerve has since been turned backwards and I no longer have that issue. (The dealership said many people have this issue so he knew what to do right away)
The car is a reliable car that’s good on gas except if you’re stuck in NYC traffic on the BQE daily. I’ve noticed it eats 1/8 tank more than the 2015 Sentra.
Two more years on this lease and it can’t come fast enough! I can’t wait to get rid of it and Nissan has lost a loyal customer due to their lack of support. I filed a complaint with corporate consumer affairs within 3 days of getting this car- and they couldn’t care less.
——————-
I had a 2015 Sentra SR which I loved except that it was slow as snails so when i heard they came out with a Turbo with a 7" touch screen i was stoked. However this car misses the mark and after less than 2 weeks I have asked Nissan consumer affairs to step in and help me return the car.
Pros: 7" touch screen, 188HP opposed to 122HP on standard Sentra, extra large backseat, streamlined dash, climate & radio controls, smoother functioning radio all around.
CONS:
-the drivers seat is uncomfortable- Stiff, small and doesn't give. Not to mention the bottom portion of the seat tilts backwards which leaves your body in an awkward position you cannot adjust with the power seat. my right leg goes numb and i get a shooting pain down my leg & my lower back kills me. This is VERY uncomfortable esp. since I drive 61 miles round trip to work and it feels like i'm sitting on hard floors while driving.
-the headrest is awkward and protrudes from the backrest which extends my head an inch or 2 from the rest of my body- no matter how i adjust the seats or headrest. It is overstuffed and there are other reviews about the 2017 model about this too.
-the seats are HARD. different passengers mentioned their seat is uncomfortable and the drivers seat isn't much different
- GLARES! the matte-chrome accents on the vents and ultra illuminated dash board reflect off the drivers windows and side mirror so much that it obstructs my view. It's similar to a mirror reflection- and yes, I've dimmed the dash lights too. I've had to drive with the window DOWN in the RAIN in order to see on the highway when switching lanes.
Wouldnt do it

Full Edmunds Review: 2019 Nissan Sentra Sedan
Driving
6.0Performance is not a Sentra strong suit — far from it. Acceleration is among the worst in the class, and braking and handling are simply acceptable. But it is free of overtly bad habits, so while unremarkable to drive, it isn't irritating during A-to-B transport either.
Comfort
7.5The Sentra can be a quiet, comfortable-riding compact sedan. The trouble is that many rivals are as well, and they also provide superior marks in most other areas. The oddly high-mounted seats were an annoyance for several taller editors.
Interior
8.0The Sentra is straightforward and user-friendly, with controls that don't require navigating any high-tech interface. Visibility is also quite good, and the trunk is large. It's one of the more sensible compact cars.
Utility
8.0The 15.1-cubic-foot trunk is large for the class, and the Sentra's 60/40-split folding seat allows for some versatility. Center console storage and cupholders are sufficient but nothing clever. The rear seat has clearly marked LATCH anchors.
Technology
The infotainment system is easy to use, and this year most Sentras come with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. Automatic emergency braking is standard on all trims, and a full suite of active safety technologies and driver aids are available on higher trim levels.
