2006 Nissan Sentra Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2007	4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 2.0L I4 CVT FWD	Seats are hard. Headrest forces your head to bend too far forward. Sculpted seat backs forces your shoulders too far forward from your spine. see full Nissan Sentra review
2006	4dr Sedan 126-horsepower 1.8L I4 4-speed automatic FWD	With the front seats all the way back, children can barely fit their legs behind the seats. see full Nissan Sentra review
