  • 18-inch alloy wheels
  • LED headlights
  • Remote engine start
  • Heated exterior mirrors

Which Sentra trim does Edmunds recommend?

For the best blend of features and value, go with the SV. Better brakes, a larger touchscreen, and adaptive cruise control upgrades make it worth the minor upcharge from the base trim. It's also available with appealing option packages. Don't be tempted by the SR trim. Despite its sporty looks, it costs the same as a base trim Honda Civic, which, while lacking some of the SR's features, is the better car overall.
