NASHVILLE – Autotrader has named the all-new 2020 Nissan Sentra to its "Best New Cars for 2020" list, which judges newly introduced vehicles on the basis of value, available technology and driving dynamics. The 2020 Sentra represents a breakthrough for Nissan's popular compact sedan – with eye-catching new styling, refined interior craftsmanship, intelligent driving technologies including standard Nissan Safety Shield® 360, and confident performance provided by a new platform and engine.

"The 2020 Nissan Sentra is a very good compact sedan for buyers looking for comfort and value. Nissan has been making big strides in interior quality and design in recent years, and it shows on the new Sentra – which also has improved exterior styling and a quiet ride," Autotrader wrote citing its editorial and data teams' unanimous selection of Sentra to the 2020 Best New Cars list.

"Recognition from a leading independent authority like Autotrader is a strong validation for the all-new Sentra, which has been a big hit among our customers and dealers," said Scott Shirley, vice president, CMM & Marketing Operations, Nissan North America, Inc. "With a sleek and sporty design outside, premium materials inside and the most standard safety features in its class, Sentra offers a great value in the compact sedan class."

"Our goal was to provide a helpful list of cars that offer exceptional value for their class, regardless of vehicle type or price," said Brian Moody, executive editor for Autotrader. "Every vehicle Autotrader listed as a Best New Car for 2020 has 'that certain something' that makes it stand out in a very crowded field."
