Introducing the Nissan Sentra
Eastern auto makers Nissan Motors produced a compact automobile called the Nissan Sentra as early as 1982. In fact this line was actually the Nissan sunny that was rebadged for export. Thus, the name’Sentra’ is only used outside Japan, while the name’Sunny’ is only known within Japan. In the united states market, the Nissan Sentra is the vehicle manufacturer’s line of compact automobiles. A base model for the Sentra is at present priced in the region of $15,000. The luxurious mode in the meantime, fetches for a minimum of $21,000. Thru the generations, the Sentra has developed and gained a lot of mass. Nowadays, it is not an entry-level automobile anymore, as this difference has been handed to the Nissan Versa. The US EPA has rated the existing Sentra generation as medium sized car, not a compact anymore, thanks to the volume of its interior. The first generation of Maximas, made available from 1983 to 1985 came in various body styles : 2-door sedan , 3-door hatch , 3-door coupe, 4-door sedan , and 5-door station truck . Its engine was either a 1.5L E15 ( s ) I4, a 1.6L E16 ( s ) I4, or a1.7L CD17 diesel I4. Transmissions included 4 speed or 5-speed manual or 3-speed automated.
since that point, 5 generations of Sentras have been introduced to the general public : the second or the B12 generation ( from 1985 to 1990 ) ; the 3rd or B13 generation ( from 1991 to 1994 ), which introduced the sporty 2-door SE-R model ; the 4th B14 generation ( 1995-1999 ) which introduced varied trims : Base, XE, GXE, GLE, SE and SE Limited ; the fifth or generation ( 2000-2006 ) which introduced torsion beam setup instead of an independent rear suspension. The existing 6th or B16 generation has been available since 2007. Introduced at the northern US world vehicle Show in Jan of 2006, this was the Sentra generation that was graded by the US EPA as a mid-size automobile. Certain classy and technol9ogiical advances will be introduced in its 2010 model.
