2027 Nissan Sentra Price, Trims, and Features in Ontario, CA
The 2027 Nissan Sentra starts at $22,890 MSRP. It comes in four grades: S, SV, SR, and SL. Every grade pairs a 149-horsepower 2.0-liter four-cylinder with an Xtronic CVT and front-wheel drive.

What changes as you move up the ladder is wheels, screens, seat material, audio, and driver-assistance technology.

Nissan Sentra S
The S is the value entry. It rides on 16-inch steel wheels with full covers. Its cabin already includes the 12.3-inch NissanConnect touchscreen, a 7-inch multi-information display, cloth seats, manual air conditioning, and a four-speaker audio system. LED headlights and LED tail lights are standard.
Nissan Sentra SV
The SV is the volume grade. It swaps in 16-inch machined aluminum-alloy wheels. It also trades the S model’s 7-inch gauge display for a 12.3-inch enhanced display, so the driver faces two 12.3-inch screens. The SV adds Nissan Intelligent Key entry, remote engine start, automatic climate control, upgraded cloth upholstery, and a vehicle security system.
Nissan Sentra SR
The SR is the appearance grade. It gets the lineup’s largest wheels: 18-inch 10-spoke aluminum-alloy. The grille switches to dark chrome. The other three grades use a gloss black grille with a chrome finisher. LED signature headlights and a full-width LED signature tail light are standard. So are sport cloth seats with accent stitching, a six-speaker audio system, and heated mirrors with turn signal indicators. Outside, the SR adds body side sill extensions, a rear spoiler, a chrome exhaust tip finisher, and red badging.
Nissan Sentra SL
The SL is the comfort grade. It moves down to 17-inch machined aluminum-alloy wheels and puts the money inside. Standard equipment includes quilted TailorFit soft-touch leatherette seating, heated front seats, and a heated synthetic-leather-wrapped steering wheel. You also get a power tilt and sliding glass moonroof with a manual sunshade, a Bose Premium Audio system with eight speakers, a six-way power driver seat with four-way power lumbar support, and dual-zone automatic climate control.

What Is New for the 2027 Nissan Sentra?
The Sentra was redesigned from the ground up for 2026. That makes 2027 a second-year refinement, so the changes are targeted rather than sweeping. Nissan made three.
| What Changed | What It Means for You |
|---|---|
| Retuned Xtronic CVT | Smoother, more linear acceleration with crisper response to accelerator inputs. Nissan credits customer feedback on the previous calibration. |
| SR Midnight Edition Package ($650 MSRP) | A Super Black two-tone roof, black exterior trim and badging, a Midnight badge, and black 18-inch wheels. SR grade only. |
| Qi2 wireless device charger | Faster, more consistent charging and compatibility with more phones. Standard on SR and SL, available on SV. |
Everything else carries over. The engine, transmission architecture, dimensions, and interior layout are unchanged from 2026.
What Factory Option Packages Are Available on the 2027 Sentra?
Grade choice sets the floor. Factory packages are where a Sentra’s window sticker actually moves. The lineup offers six substantive packages, and the SR carries four of them.
| Package | Price | Available On | Includes |
|---|---|---|---|
| S Cold Weather Package | $500 MSRP | S | Heated front seats, heated mirrors |
| SV Convenience Package | $990 MSRP | SV | Auto-dimming rearview mirror, heated front seats, heated mirrors with LED turn signals, heated steering wheel, Intelligent Key with approach unlock and walk-away lock, LED-lit sun visors, wrapped steering wheel |
| Moonroof Package | $650 MSRP | SV, SR | Power tilt and sliding moonroof with manual sunshade |
| SR All Weather Package | $650 MSRP | SR | Dual-zone automatic climate control, heated front seats, heated steering wheel |
| SR Midnight Edition Package | $650 MSRP | SR | Two-tone Super Black roof, black exterior trim, black exterior badging, black Midnight badge, black 18-inch wheels |
| SR Premium Package | $2,300 MSRP | SR | Sport leatherette seating with six-way power driver seat, eight-speaker Bose Premium Audio, ambient lighting, soft knee pad, HD Around View Monitor with Moving Object Detection, ProPILOT Assist with Lane Keep Assist and Cyclist Detection, auto-dimming inside mirror, LED-lit sun visors |
Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) for new vehicles includes manufacturer and distributor options and delivery, process and handling fees, which may be subject to change at any time. MSRP excludes taxes, title, license and dealer installed options, accessories, fees and charges. MSRP is not the dealer advertised price. Dealer price will vary. The dealer sets the final price.
Two packages deserve a closer look. Midnight Edition is why you will see “SR Midnight Edition” listed as a build configuration rather than a grade. It is a $650 MSRP option on the SR, not a fifth trim. The SR Premium Package is the biggest jump at $2,300 MSRP. It is also the only way to get ProPILOT Assist and the HD Around View Monitor outside the SL.
Standalone options are offered too. They include premium paint, a two-tone treatment on the SR, black 18-inch alloy wheels for the SR, and a body-colored spoiler for the SV and SL.
What Engine and Powertrain Power the 2027 Nissan Sentra?
Every 2027 Sentra uses the same powertrain. It is a 2.0-liter DOHC 16-valve four-cylinder rated at 149 horsepower at 6,000 rpm and 146 lb-ft of torque at 4,000 rpm. Power reaches the front wheels through an Xtronic continuously variable transmission.
The transmission is where the notable change happened for 2027. Nissan retuned the Xtronic CVT to deliver a smoother, more linear acceleration profile. Throttle response is crisper as well. Underneath, an independent strut front suspension with coil springs and a stabilizer bar pairs with an independent multi-link rear suspension.
| Specification | 2027 Sentra (All Grades) |
|---|---|
| Engine | 2.0-liter DOHC 16-valve inline-four |
| Horsepower | 149 hp @ 6,000 rpm |
| Torque | 146 lb-ft @ 4,000 rpm |
| Transmission | Xtronic CVT |
| Drivetrain | Front-wheel drive |

| Rear suspension | Independent multi-link, coil springs, stabilizer bar |
| Fuel tank | 12.4 gallons |

2027 Sentra Fuel Economy by Grade
Nissan publishes two sets of EPA estimates for the 2027 Sentra. The S and SV are rated at 30 mpg city, 38 mpg highway, and 33 mpg combined. The SR and SL are rated at 29 mpg city, 36 mpg highway, and 32 mpg combined. Drivers covering daily highway miles on Interstate 10 between Ontario and Fontana are looking at 36 to 38 mpg depending on grade.
EPA-estimated fuel economy figures are for comparison purposes only. Your actual mileage will vary depending on driving conditions, how you drive and maintain your vehicle, battery age/condition, and other factors.
What Driver-Assistance and Safety Features Does the 2027 Nissan Sentra Include?
Every 2027 Sentra grade carries a substantial set of standard driver-assistance technology. That includes Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection, Intelligent Forward Collision Warning, Blind Spot Warning, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, Lane Departure Warning, High Beam Assist, and Intelligent Driver Alertness.
Intelligent Forward Collision Warning is worth calling out. Nissan rates it as able to detect up to two vehicles ahead. That means it can react to a sudden slowdown one car beyond the vehicle directly in front of you.
Availability separates the grades at the top of the range. ProPILOT Assist and the HD Around View Monitor are standard on the SL and optional on the SR through the Premium Package. On the SL, Intelligent Cruise Control operates across the full speed range with stop-and-go capability. Rear Automatic Braking is exclusive to the SL.
| Feature | S | SV | SR | SL |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection | Standard | Standard | Standard | Standard |
| Intelligent Forward Collision Warning | Standard | Standard | Standard | Standard |
| Blind Spot Warning | Standard | Standard | Standard | Standard |
| Rear Cross Traffic Alert | Standard | Standard | Standard | Standard |
| Lane Departure Warning | Standard | Standard | Standard | Standard |
| High Beam Assist | Standard | Standard | Standard | Standard |
| Intelligent Driver Alertness | Standard | Standard | Standard | Standard |
| Intelligent Cruise Control | Standard | Standard | Standard | Full-speed range with stop-and-go |
| ProPILOT Assist | Not available | Not available | Optional, Premium Package | Standard |
| HD Around View Monitor | Not available | Not available | Optional, Premium Package | Standard |
| Rear Automatic Braking | Not available | Not available | Not available | Standard |
Driver-assistance and advanced safety systems are supplemental aids and are not substitutes for safe and attentive driving. Availability, operation, and effectiveness vary by trim and equipment and depend on factors including road, weather, traffic, and vehicle condition. Always keep your hands on the wheel and your eyes on the road. See your owner’s manual for system limitations and details.

What Are the Main Strengths and Trade-Offs of the 2027 Sentra?
Where the Sentra Delivers
Up to 38 mpg on the highway. A 12.3-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and wireless Android Auto standard on the base grade. A broad set of standard driver-assistance technology. All of it starting under $23,000 MSRP.
Where It Compromises
At 149 horsepower, the powertrain is tuned for efficiency rather than acceleration. The retuned CVT smooths delivery but does not add output. There is no all-wheel-drive option and no manual transmission.
If those trade-offs matter to you, they matter before you drive one. Our Nissan Sentra performance guide covers the powertrain in more depth. Our 2026 Nissan Sentra vs. Honda Civic vs. Toyota Corolla comparison shows how it stacks up against its closest rivals.
