It all starts with the fundamentals. The all-new Nissan Sentra is built on a new platform that provides greatly improved proportions and stance. The new body is about two inches lower and two inches wider than the previous generation giving it a more powerful stance. The premium presence of the exterior is highlighted by Nissan's latest sedan design language including the signature V-motion grille, thin LED headlamps and floating roof. In front, Sentra's striking new look is created through use of sharp creases that blend into the more muscular body sides. The rear has a lower roofline and wider shoulders, with wheels flush to the body adding to the strong stance.

The available thin LED projector headlamps are matched with signature LED Daytime Running Lights and rear combination lamp design. LED fog lights are also available. Intelligent Auto Headlights (I-AH) and High Beam Assist (HBA) are standard on all Sentra grade levels.

The Nissan Sentra SR provides an extra touch of sportiness with a sport-style rear spoiler, black painted side mirrors with integrated turn signals, lower body side sill extensions, 18-inch diamond-cut aluminum-alloy wheels, dark chrome V-motion grille and chrome exhaust finisher.

The fresh slate of available exterior colors includes eight single colors: Electric Blue Metallic, Brilliant Silver Metallic, Gun Metallic, Super Black, Aspen White TriCoat (premium color), Fresh Powder, Rosewood Metallic and Scarlet Ember TriCoat (premium color). Made popular in other Nissan models like LEAF and Kicks, the 2020 Sentra will also offer two-tone exterior paint combinations including Super Black/Gun Metallic, Super Black/Aspen White TriCoat and Super Black/Monarch Orange Metallic (premium color).
