Nissan Sentra fuel consumption

Alex by Alex

Expert answer:

0

Quick answer

A Nissan Sentra typically sees 28 to 34 mpg combined, with newer CVT models often hitting the higher end. Gentle driving can approach 36+ on highways.

Detailed answer

The Nissan Sentra, especially from the 2010s onward, runs on small, efficient four-cylinder engines. Many drivers report combined mpg around 30, with city usage in the high-20s and highway cruising in the mid-30s. The continuously variable transmission (CVT) aims to keep engine revs low, boosting efficiency if you keep speeds moderate.

Driving style matters: quick starts or 75+ mph highways dip your mpg. Regular oil changes, proper tire pressure, and minimal weight in the trunk maintain top numbers. Some modern Sentra trims also include Eco modes or start-stop systems for marginal gains.

While not as sporty as some rivals, the Sentra suits those who prioritize comfort and a quiet ride, delivering respectable fuel economy for a daily commuter. If you baby the throttle, it can push near or above 35 mpg on extended trips.
