It’s highly regarded as an excellent commuter car because of its affordable price, impressive gas mileage, high safety scores, spacious interior, and huge selection of features.

What is the Nissan Sentra SR Turbo?
The Nissan Sentra is currently offered in five trims: S, FE+ S, SV, SR, and SL. In terms of sales, the SR is currently killing it and has quickly become a popular favorite. Therefore, when decided which trim would get the turbocharged boost, Nissan decided on the SR grade level (always taking into consideration what its fans and owners have to say.)
