Consumer Reports takes its top picks, like Nissan
, seriously. Vehicles must have among the highest Overall Score in their category, considering owner satisfaction, safety, road tests, and predicted reliability. The top cars must also come with standard automatic emergency braking (AEB) with pedestrian detection and forward collision warning (FCW) on all trims.
Jerry
, the car ownership super app, checks out the 2022 Nissan Sentra
and the 2022 Nissan Rogue Sport, which offer exceptional safety, reliability, and performance. The Nissan Sentra: Compact car
The 2022 Nissan Sentra ranges between $19,950 and $22,700. The Consumer Reports Green Choice has an overall EPA certification of 32 mpg, with 22 mpg in the city and 44 mpg on the highway. The Nissan Sentra is a sharp-looking choice with premium value offered in its higher trims.
The auto sports a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine with 149 hp and a continuously variable transmission. Consumer Reports is a fan of the Nissan Sentra’s nimble handling, comfortable ride, roomy cabin, and intuitive controls. The four-door sedan is responsive, steady, and enjoyable to drive.
While the Nissan Sentra’s interior feels more upscale than we’d expect, buyers can still opt for a power seat, leather seats, or heated seats. The climate controls and infotainment system are easy to use, with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto standard on all trims. Also standard is the comprehensive and impressive Safety Shield 360.
The 2022 Nissan Sentra received an overall score of 77 from Consumer Reports and earned a 5 out of 5 rating for its braking, usability, and fuel economy.
The Nissan scored a 4 out of 5 for its acceleration, transmission, routine handling, emergency handling, ride, and noise. It received the same score for its rear seat comfort, front access, interior fit/finish, trunk/cargo area, and climate system.
The Nissan Rogue Sport: Subcompact SUV
The small but mighty Nissan Rogue Sport ranges from $24,960 to $31,090. The substantial SUV gives drivers an overall EPA of 26 mpg with 19 mpg in town and 34 mpg on the highway.
While it’s smaller than the regular Rogue, don’t let the “sport” name fool you, as it's actually slower than its older brother. Available in front or all-wheel drive, the Nissan Rogue Sport features a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine with 141 hp and a well-tuned continuously variable transmission.
The composed ride offers a quiet cabin, easy front access, and an elevated seat height for the driver. Readily accessible charging ports line the cabin with plenty of strategic storage bins.
Nissan Rogue Sport buyers will receive an infotainment system within the gauge cluster (between the speedometer and tachometer) that displays fuel economy, outside temperature, tire pressure, and trip information.
Nissan impressed Consumer Reports with the Nissan Rogue Sport’s standard forward collision warning and automatic emergency braking. The organization was also a fan of the SV trim’s split cargo floor that allows items to be corralled and stored and loved its sturdy cargo cover.
Consumer Reports gave the 2022 Nissan Rogue Sport a 77 overall rating and a 5 out of 5 for its predicted reliability and usability. The subcompact SUV earned a 4 out of 5 rating for its transmission, routine handling, braking, ride, noise, driving position, and front seat comfort. It received the same score for its front access, climate system, and fuel economy.
