Nissan Sentra named to Cars.com’s Honor Roll in  2021 Car Seat Fit Report Card

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – The 2021 Nissan Sentra was announced as one of four, model year 2021-22, vehicles to receive straight A’s in Cars.com’s 2021 Car Seat Fit Report Card. The Car Seat Fit Report Card provides parents and caregivers with essential information on family vehicles that “best fit car seats for infants, toddlers and young children.”

Cars.com’s certified child-passenger safety technicians evaluated 51 family vehicles for this year’s report. Calling the Nissan Sentra “a budget-friendly option for small families,” the Cars.com editors wrote, “Sentra’s roomy backseat played nicely with our new car seats.”

A recent Cars.com survey showed that 56% of parents stated they have installed a car seat incorrectly, while 84% of parents find some level of the process frustrating. To earn an “A” grade, a vehicle must show it has plenty of room for the car seat and the child, without affecting legroom for the driver or front passenger. Vehicles must also demonstrate their Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children (LATCH) System is easy to find and use, without any fit issues.

“What serves as icing on the cake, is that the other three vehicles called out by Cars.com Honor Roll are larger vehicles,” said Jared Haslam, vice president, Product and Services Planning, Nissan U.S. and Canada. “Not all car seats fit in all vehicles and choosing the appropriate child restraint system can be confusing. We appreciate Cars.com bringing attention to this important issue.”

The 2021 Sentra is available in three well-equipped grade levels, S, SV and SR. Pricing1 starts at $19,510 for the Sentra S. Further information on Sentra is available [here].
