SENTRA B16

About the Sentra B16

The B16 Sentra served Nissan faithfully between 2006 and 2012 with a 2.0-liter MR20DE engine that prioritized efficiency over excitement. The CVT was smooth by the standards of the era, and the cabin was quiet enough for highway commuting. What distinguished the B16 was its value play — Nissan loaded it with features that competitors reserved for higher trims. The SE-R Spec V variant kept the performance torch burning with a 2.5-liter and a six-speed manual. Two cars in one nameplate, serving two very different buyers.
