Responsive and Fun-to-Drive

Sentras powerful 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine designed to combine
responsive acceleration with good fuel economy and efficient operation.
It is mated to a standard Xtronic CVT or 6-speed manual (Sentra 2.0
only).
The advanced 2.0-liter Nissan MR20DE aluminum block engine is designed
to offer an exceptional balance of responsive acceleration, excellent
low and mid-range torque and increased thermal efficiency. The engine is
rated at 140 horsepower and 147 lb-ft of torque. Up to 90 percent of
the torque is achieved by 2,400 rpm providing comfortable driving and
excellent fuel consumption in real world driving when mated to the
Xtronic CVT.
Fuel economy is rated at 27/34 miles per gallon City/Highway with the
CVT and 24/31 City/Highway miles per gallon with the 6-speed manual
transmission (Sentra 2.0 only).
The 2011 Sentra again offers responsive handling. The front suspension
is an independent strut design with coil springs and stabilizer bar. The
rear features a torsion beam with integral stabilizer bar, with the
rear shock absorbers mounted below the trunk floor for improved trunk
roominess. Sentras ride comfort is enhanced through use of special ripple control shock absorbers, an insulated front cradle-type
subframe with pendulum engine mount system, roller-type front strut
bearings and large, tuned rear beam isolators.
All 2011 Sentra models feature standard Anti-lock Braking System (ABS)
with Electronic Brake force Distribution (EBD), along with standard
Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC) and Traction Control System (TCS).
Other standard safety features for the Sentra include the Nissan
Advanced Air Bag System (AABS) with dual-stage supplemental front air
bags with seat belt and occupant classification sensors; front
seat-mounted side impact supplemental air bags; roof-mounted curtain
side impact supplemental air bags for front and rear-seat outboard
occupant head protection; and front seat Active Head Restraints.
