Compare the Nissan Sentra to the Volkswagen Jetta and Kia Forte at Ciocca Nissan of Quakertown
Affordable sedans might seem like a dime a dozen, but that's not the case with a special few, like the Nissan Sentra. The new Sentra offers a unique way to take on your morning drive to work or weekend trip away from home. The lineup comes with an array of innovative features and affordable technology that you're hard-pressed to find on other models in the Sentra's segment.
However, the Sentra isn't alone. Rivals like the Volkswagen Jetta and Kia Forte are respectable in their own right. You'll find a similar experience to the Nissan Sentra in its competition, but you can't match what the Sentra offers for reliability, convenience, and enjoyment. Check out our comparisons of the models to the Sentra and see why we prefer it over the competition.
Nissan Sentra vs. Volkswagen Jetta
Looking to hit the road and enjoy your drive without feeling cramped? While both the Sentra and Jetta are considered compact sedans, the Sentra ensures that those in the front seats can stretch out a bit more. The Nissan Sentra offers 44 inches of legroom and 38.9 inches of headroom in the front row - an ample amount of space for even taller adult passengers. In the Volkswagen Jetta, you won't get as much room. The Volkswagen sedan only offers 41.1 inches of legroom and 38.5 inches of headroom in the front.
When it comes to your safety, you deserve the peace of mind to travel the road confidently. The Nissan Sentra comes with many class-exclusive features that help you navigate thick traffic and tricky road conditions, including Rear Automatic Braking, Intelligent Forward Collision Warning, and the available Intelligent Around View® Monitor. You'll also get standard features like Rear Cross-Traffic Alert, Blind Spot Warning, and so much more! While the Volkswagen Jetta offers many safety features, you'll need to pay more to take advantage of its safety benefits.
Nissan Sentra vs. Kia Forte
While compact sedans aren't known for their powerful engines and supercharged capability, the Nissan Sentra doesn't putter along. The sedan comes equipped with a peppy 2.0-liter DOHC four-cylinder engine that delivers 149 horsepower and 146 pound-feet of torque. Under the hood of the Kia Forte, you'll also find a standard 2.0-liter four-cylinder powertrain, but it doesn't offer the same amount of power. Its four-cylinder engine only manages 147 horsepower and 132 pound-feet of torque. The Sentra pairs its engine with the Xtronic CVT®, while the Forte utilizes an Intelligent Variable Transmission.
Once again, the Sentra puts itself ahead of the competition with more standard driver assistance features. The Nissan sedan offers Nissan Safety Shield® 360 with every Sentra, including features like Intelligent Forward Collision Warning, Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection, Lane Departure Warning, Rear Automatic Braking, Rear Cross-Traffic Alert, and Blind Spot Warning. The available Intelligent Around View® Monitor is also available, should you upgrade to higher trim levels. While the Forte offers numerous features to help you manage your commute, you'll lack options like blind-spot warning, rear cross-traffic alert, and rear automatic braking standard. The Sentra offers the more affordable route for your drive.
