We often receive inquiries about the differences between these two popular models, and we’re excited to provide you with the information you need to make an informed decision. Let’s explore critical distinctions between the 2023 Sentra and the 2023 Altima.

Performance

The 2023 Sentra offers three trim levels, each with a capable four-cylinder engine delivering 149 horsepower. Front-wheel drive and a continuously variable automatic transmission come standard, while the upper trims feature rear disc brakes. On the other hand, the 2023 Altima offers two engine options across its five trims. The first four trims come with a 2.5-liter, four-cylinder engine generating 188 horsepower, paired with a CVT. Most of these trims are available with front-wheel or all-wheel drive. The top Altima trim boasts a turbocharged four-cylinder engine with 182 horsepower, exclusively paired with front-wheel drive.

Appearance

The 2023 Sentra and the 2023 Altima showcase the signature V-Motion grille and sporty profiles. The Sentra’s grille is smaller and features chrome accents, while its nose stands out with long, arrow-like air vents and LED-enhanced headlights. The sides display powerful molding and defined rear haunches. In contrast, the 2023 Altima features a dark grille extending to the front end’s bottom. Its wide air vents and angled headlights create an aggressive, pointed look. The Altima’s roof has a bold rake, and sleek sides provide a touch of definition above the rear wheel well and across the lower door panels.

Features

Both the 2023 Sentra and the 2023 Altima offer impressive features across their trim levels. You can expect amenities such as a wireless internet hotspot, a Bose audio system, simulated or genuine leather upholstery, heated front seats, a sunroof, remote engine start, a heated steering wheel, a two-zone automatic climate control system, and assistive driver technologies. The 2023 Altima takes it further with additional features like traffic sign recognition, a navigation system, a 360-degree camera, a larger infotainment screen, and more.
