Nissan Sentra: the technical characteristics of one of the best-selling Japanese sedans

Nissan Sentra – car, whose debut in Russia took place in 2014 in Moscow. How can it be described in a few words? Spacious, comfortable, tough, reliable – these are the four main qualities which it boasts. But this is not its only advantage.

About sizes

It is Worth noting that speaking about the dimensions, the Sentra is a leader in its class. The length of his body is 4625 mm, width – 1760 mm. In the height of the car is 1495 mm and the wheelbase reaches 2700 mm. measure the turning Radius on the front bumper is five and a half meters! The car's curb weight reaches the target of 1276 kg (which is a very small weight). Overall the machine is quite compact and lightweight which is very important. After all, Nissan Sentra, in fact, created for a comfortable ride around town and for short journeys. And for such purposes the car is not required.

Facelift for Russia

This model manufacturers have built on the stretched platform from Nissan which is known under the designation of “V”. It is, in fact, the same platform that was the basis for other cars in this group. For example, Note, Pulsar, Micra, as well as the Tilda hatchback (2nd generation).

This model is specially adapted for Russian roads. The process involved an international team made up of highly skilled professionals. Nissan Sentra before it was announced its premiere was held a full cycle of various tests on our roads, and then the developers started to work on the design of the machine. Had to make some changes. Appeared significantly reinforced suspension and floor panels, also, the engineers reconfigure the shock absorbers, increasing their energy intensity. Ground clearance is also not left without attention, increasing it up to 15.5 inches. And yet a car equipped with more powerful and capacious battery. In addition, the Nissan Sentra has improved the cooling of the variator, a new, more comfortable seats.

Interior

The Interior of the Nissan Sentra was originally designed to be placed inside the five. And with great comfort. Inside the machine a lot of space, and even after the place is all five, both the front and rear seats will remain enough free space.

The Nissan Sentra does not differ much rich interior – all done simply, but tastefully. In addition, the interior is quite ergonomic. And the materials used was not cheap. So the quality is difficult to fault. Experts have picked good materials and assembled interior to the conscience. Devices combined in the classic version. That is, the driver can see the four dials. Absolutely all the evidence can be read easily and quickly. Also not to mention the convenient steering wheel that can be adjusted for height and even angle. This feature even basic equipment.

And finally, the last thing I would like to say about the salon – it's in the trunk. Its volume is 511 liters, and it must be said, a good indicator for the Japanese sedan.

Technical parameters

And the last topic that needs to be kind and caring, to mention Nissan Sentra. Features – these are considered very important. But in this case, much diversity there. For Russian buyers is only one version – with atmospheric 1.6-liter engine that runs on gasoline. Very modest at 117 HP, but meets all ecological requirements Euro-5. The maximum available for this machine, – 192 km/h To “hundreds” the car can accelerate in 10.6 seconds. Not to say that the machine is not economical: the combined cycle engine consumes only 6.4 litres / 100 km.

In General, for the city the most it. This machine will satisfy the undemanding and neizoschrennyh driver, so if you need a car to drive to work and back – worth taking.
