2007 Nissan Sentra perfect for work days, weekends

TEMECULA — The all-new 2007 Nissan Sentra, on sale now at Quality in Temecula, is designed to live in two worlds — weekdays and weekends. It offers all the expected attributes of the previous generations of Sentra — good fuel economy, high levels of durability, quality and reliability, safety, an affordable price and low cost of ownership — and adds a completely unexpected level of style, roominess, responsiveness and versatility to meet the needs of its young, active, highly social target buyers.

The new Sentra is much larger than the previous generation and should offer one of the largest interior volumes in the compact car class (final specifications will be available closer to on-sale date). Built on Nissan’s new “C” platform, this sixth generation Sentra has a 5.9-inch longer wheelbase than the 2006 model. It is 2.3 inches longer in overall length, 3.2 inches wider and sits 4.0 inches taller for easier ingress and egress and enhanced headroom.

The new, roomy interior also features an array of innovative comfort and convenience features with the use of high-quality materials, large gauges and a spacious, flexible center console, a 60/40 split double-folding rear seat with a fold-flat seat back angle for better utilization of the wide trunk pass-through opening, a special trunk divider panel that creates a hidden trunk storage compartment and an integrated overhead compact disc holder.

Under the dramatically styled body is an all-new two-liter four-cylinder engine designed to combine responsive acceleration with good fuel economy and efficient operation. The new Sentra will be available with a standard six-speed manual transmission or optional Nissan Xtronic CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission).

Along with enhanced performance, the 2007 Sentra will be offered with the widest array of premium equipment ever — including leather-appointed seating, Intelligent Key keyless entry system, Bluetooth Hands-Free Phone System and premium Rockford Fosgate-powered audio system with six-disc autochanger, eight-channel amplifier and eight speakers.

“The biggest change in the new Sentra is in concept, moving from ‘entry-level’ to ‘aspirational,’” said Bill Bosley, vice president and general manager, Nissan Division, Nissan North America, Inc. “The addition of the new Nissan Versa hatchback and sedan allows us to move Sentra up in terms of both size and style. As a result, the new Sentra is a much stronger match for the image and usage needs of its active target buyers who lead highly social, morning-to-morning lifestyles.”

“Nissan has sold over 3.8 million Sentras in the United States alone since it was introduced in 1982. It has a well-earned reputation for quality, dependability, value, performance and style,” said Bosley. “But this is the Sentra that people won’t believe is a Sentra — unlike any Sentra ever seen.”

The 2007 Sentra is available for sale now at Quality Nissan in Temecula with MSRP starting at $14,750 (nicely equipped with power door locks and windows, side-impact and curtain air bags, AM/FM/CD stereo with auxiliary input and air conditioning).
