Used 2020 Nissan Sentra Sedan Trims Comparison
Trim level differences
The Nissan Sentra is a small sedan offered in three trims with a short list of option packages. The base S model is relatively lightly equipped but comes with numerous advanced driver aids. The SV is only a little more expensive but adds a wealth of upgrades. The SR is the reasonably priced range-topping model with a few sport-themed touches.
Which Sentra trim does Edmunds recommend?
The bargain-priced S is loaded with safety and tech features, but we think most buyers would be better served by the SV. It adds quality-of-life upgrades that include Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration, adaptive cruise control and more. It's a supremely good buy when you consider all these additions cost less than $1,200.
