Nissan Sentra Horsepower by Year
The Nissan Sentra’s listed horsepower ranges from 115 to 200 hp across catalog years 1999-2022. These figures describe the range shown for the vehicle, not a single rating that applies to every Sentra. The horsepower can change by model year and engine, so use the figure that matches the specific vehicle rather than assuming all Sentras share one output.
Read the catalog range as a summary across 24 years of listings. It does not identify the horsepower for an individual year, trim, or engine, and the facts provided do not assign either endpoint to a particular version. If you need a specific Sentra’s rating, confirm it on the door jamb or in the owner’s manual.
