The 2026 Sentra SV Sedan sits in the middle of the Sentra lineup, offering a balance of comfort, technology, and value between the base S and the sport-oriented SR trim. It keeps the same efficient powertrain while adding more premium features such as upgraded infotainment, alloy wheels, and enhanced interior amenities.
Under the hood, the Sentra SV uses a 2.0-liter inline-four engine producing 149 horsepower and 146 lb-ft of torque, paired with Nissan’s Xtronic continuously variable transmission (CVT) and front-wheel drive. This setup prioritizes smooth acceleration and fuel efficiency rather than aggressive performance.
