Nissan Motors Philippines recently launched the Nissan Sentra 200 at the NBC Tent in Fort Bonifacio. It is positioned as a top class sedan with a 2.0 liter engine displacement. Price starts at P1,050,000.00
The Sentra 200 is equipped with Xtronic CVT technology which allows for smoother acceleration and delivers continuous engine power. It features a 60/40 split double folding rear seats which allow you to carry large luggage. Its promotion says that it can even fit a mountain bike.
Nissan has long been a number 4 in the Philippine car market. It has lost ground especially in the passenger car market. It has failed to launch new models for the Sentra line fast enough to catch up with its competitors. The Sentra has never been known for its stylishness. This latest model in my opinion lacks the curve and sleekness of the Altis and the good looks of the Civic. This model looks more like the Suzuki Swift from the front end and the Chevrolet Optra from the rear end.
It also doesn't come in 1.6 or 1.8 liter model which is a disadvantage compared to the Altis or Civic. The price could have been much lower if they offered lower variants. I think the Sentra 200 will be another tough sell.
