Year to Year Changes
2001 Nissan Sentra:
Except for the addition of an in-trunk emergency release, little was new for 2001. The base XE edition lost its driver's-seat height adjuster.
2002 Nissan Sentra:
Gone was the 145-hp SE model, replaced at the top of the line by the SE-R and SE-R Spec V. These new models had a larger engine with 165 hp in the SE-R and 175 in the Spec V. The SE-R had unique interior trim, a sport suspension, and 16-inch wheels vs. other Sentras' 14s or 15s. The SE-R Spec V got further suspension revisions, 17-inch wheels, distinct exterior styling touches, and its own interior decor, including sport front seats.
2003 Nissan Sentra:
The Limited Edition, basically a GXE with a 165-hp 2.5-liter engine, plus standard automatic transmission, ABS, and front side airbags was added to the lineup for '03.
2004 Nissan Sentra:
The Sentra got minor front and rear exterior changes in 2004.
2005 Nissan Sentra:
Availability of satellite radio is among the few changes to Nissan's smallest sedan for 2005. All models get new upholstery fabrics for 2005, and the 1.8 S adds cruise control and a trip computer as standard.
2006 Nissan Sentra:
No 2006 changes for Sentra.
