In the market for a smart, efficient compact sedan that won’t break the bank? It’s tough out there for four-door shoppers, but rest assured that there is still at least one smart choice: the 2025 Nissan Sentra. This frugal and dependable economy car has everything you need for your commute without any of the unnecessary bells and whistles that drive up the price of some of today’s modern cars—and the critics agree.

In its recent review of the 2025 Sentra, Motor1 praised its 149-horsepower, 2.0-liter engine for motivating the little sedan “quickly enough” and noted its balanced chassis and smooth brakes. The Sentra’s four-cylinder is expected to return 30 miles per gallon in the city, 40 mpg on the highway, and 34 mpg combined—we did say it was frugal! And a lot of that is owed to the Sentra’s relatively basic front-wheel-drive layout and continuously variable transmission (CVT), both of which are standard on every 2025 model.  

The Sentra received some updates in 2024 that modernized the styling and brought it more in line with the rest of Nissan’s portfolio, but that didn’t stop the company from throwing a few more goodies at the little four-door for 2025, including a new fuel-saving auto-start/stop system that shuts the engine off while you’re stationary. No need to waste gas if you’re not moving, right?

And that wait will be comfortable, Motor1 says. The 2025 Nissan Sentra offers soft, supportive seats with plenty of room for all five occupants. The Sentra offers all of the basic safety features you need, including front and rear automatic emergency braking, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and cruise control.
