Crunching Some Important Numbers
The Corolla and the Sentra offer seating for up to five and are within a fraction of an inch in size. However, the front seat passengers in the Sentra will enjoy up to two inches more space when comparing leg, shoulder, and headroom. In addition, the Sentra provides an additional cubic foot of cargo capacity over the Corolla. Finally, these similar sedans are within a single mile per gallon in terms of their blended fuel economy. But the really impressive number is that the average price buyers pay for a 2024 Sentra is nearly $1,800 less than they would pay for a similarly equipped Toyota Corolla, according to Edmunds.
Safety Is Always The Priority At Nissan
Every 2024 Sentra produced includes Nissan’s Safety Shield 360 suite to protect drivers and their precious cargo. Features like forward collision warning and automatic emergency braking, pedestrian detection, lane departure warning, blind spot monitoring, and rear cross-traffic alert are all standard safety features on the Sentra, while not all features are mirrored in all Corolla trims.
Creature Comforts You Will Appreciate
Nissan has invested in creating an affordable sedan that buyers will enjoy driving across town or the country. The zero-gravity front seats are a significant upgrade over the average sedan seating. However, the Corolla does offer a more comfortable seat for an added price if you want comfort equal to the standard front seat in all Sentra trims. It appears that Toyota is more focused on offering an upgraded appearance package, touting blacked-out badges to focus on driver and passenger comfort.
Total Tech In The Sentra
Buyers of the 2024 Sentra will find that Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are standard features in all models, unlike the competition. They also love the standard 7” color touchscreen, which is increased to 8” in the SV and SR trims, as well as an added USB-C port and satellite radio in those trims. So when you stop by Natchez Nissan for your test drive, be sure to allot some extra time to check out the tech features as you enjoy a few more minutes in the zero-gravity seats.
Make The Wise Investment
The Edmunds rating system is one of the most thorough and used to evaluate and compare vehicles, making it a trusted and trustworthy resource for millions. In the case of the Sentra versus the Corolla, the scores are typically within a fraction of a point. However, what cannot be overlooked is that the 2024 Nissan Sentra is offering something equal to or better than the Toyota Corolla at a significantly lower average cost.
