A diverse lineup includes the hot-selling Altima, quirky Cube, and rugged Pathfinder.
Nissan Sentra
The Sentra is a particularly spacious compact sedan, and it gets reworked front and rear ends for 2010. Nicer interior materials are also new, along with an optional in-dash navigation system and an available rearview camera, which is unusual in this segment. The trunk is large and tall drivers will find plenty of headroom. Buyers looking for more performance will find it in the SE-R and SE-R Spec V models, which feature sport suspensions and more powerful 2.5-liter 4-cylinders with 177 hp and 200 hp, respectively.
