What’s New for 2026?
This is a full redesign. The 2026 Sentra arrives with sharper exterior styling inspired by Nissan’s latest design language, a fully updated interior, and the 12.3-inch NissanConnect® touchscreen now standard on every single trim. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are included across the board, along with the full Nissan Safety Shield 360 suite featuring automatic emergency braking, blind spot warning, and rear cross-traffic alert.
Breaking Down the Trims
The S is one of the strongest base models in its class. At $22,600, you’re getting a full suite of safety tech, modern connectivity, and a redesigned interior that punches well above its price point.
The SV adds heated front seats, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, and ProPILOT Assist, Nissan’s hands-on highway driving assistance system, making it the ideal pick for daily St. Louis commuters spending time on I-270 or Highway 40.
The SR brings a sportier personality with a more aggressive exterior treatment, sport-tuned suspension, and upgraded interior accents. If you want your sedan to have some attitude, this is your trim.
The SL is the top-of-the-line option, adding leather seating, a Bose premium audio system, a moonroof, and the most complete driver assistance package in the lineup. All the premium features, still well under $30,000.
How Does It Compare to the Honda Civic?
The Civic is a perennial favorite, but the 2026 Sentra undercuts it on price while matching it on standard technology—particularly the 12.3-inch display, which Honda still reserves for higher trims. For St. Louis buyers prioritizing value and monthly payment, the Sentra is a compelling alternative.
