Used 2022 Nissan Sentra for Sale nearLongueuil, QC

How much does the 2022 Nissan Sentra cost?

Prices have softened 12.33% compared to this time last year, making it a favourable time to shop this model year.

There are 264 listings available, which gives you a reasonable amount of inventory to compare.

Is the 2022 Nissan Sentra a good car?

Yes — the 2022 Nissan Sentra earns 5/5 from users and 7.67/10 from our experts. The standout strength is Safety at 9/10.

It is a well-rounded compact sedan that aims to be a competent, affordable daily driver rather than a car built around one dramatic strength. That makes it a sensible fit if you want a straightforward entry point into the Nissan brand, especially in a segment where small sedans often get overshadowed by crossovers.

The market also shows 29.5% of listings as good or great deals, which suggests there are still some attractive opportunities if you shop carefully.

Is the 2022 Nissan Sentra reliable?

Owners rate it 5/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

The 2022 Sentra benefits from being two years removed from a significant redesign, which helps it feel like a newer-generation car without being brand new. Its expert evaluation also points to a balanced, competent package with few shortcomings, and the powertrain is described as solid and consistent for commuting, town driving, and the occasional road trip.

The available five-year/100,000-kilometre powertrain warranty adds some reassurance for used buyers, and the model’s broad competence should help reduce ownership surprises. For a used shopper, the main long-term risk is less about a glaring flaw and more about whether the car’s modest performance and refinement will meet your expectations over time.

What should I look for when buying a used 2022 Nissan Sentra?

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The base S trim gets the essentials, including a 7-inch touchscreen, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and a 4.2-inch driver’s display, but the SV adds useful upgrades like an 8-inch touchscreen, premium cloth upholstery, dual-zone automatic climate control, and intelligent cruise control. The SR brings the most visual flair with 18-inch wheels, LED headlights, remote start, and sport cloth seats, so it suits you best if you want the most distinctive look and extra equipment.
• Powertrain: Every model uses a 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine with 149 horsepower and 146 pound-feet of torque. In Canada, the six-speed manual is standard and the CVT is available, and the setup is described as consistent rather than exciting, with solid low-end acceleration and good highway manners.
• Safety package: Standard driver-assistance features include forward and reverse automatic emergency braking, forward collision warning, pedestrian detection, driver drowsiness monitoring, lane-departure warning, blind spot monitoring, and rear cross-traffic alert. The available adaptive cruise control and surround-view parking monitor add convenience, but the adaptive cruise can brake abruptly when closing in on traffic.
• Infotainment: The base car gets a 7-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, Bluetooth, and a USB port. SV and SR trims upgrade to an 8-inch screen, but there is no wireless Apple CarPlay or Android Auto.
• Fuel efficiency: The Sentra returns 9.2 L/100 km city, 6.2 highway, and 7.9 combined with the manual transmission, while the CVT uses 8.0 city, 6.0 highway, and 7.1 combined. In SR trim, those figures rise slightly to 9.4/6.4/8.1 with the manual and 8.2/6.1/7.3 with the CVT.

Which 2022 Nissan Sentra trim should I buy?

The 2022 Nissan Sentra is offered in 3 trim levels: S, SV, SR.

Here's the short version:

• S: This is the value play if you want the lowest-cost way into the Sentra. You still get the core tech and safety basics, including the 7-inch touchscreen, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and the standard driver-assistance suite.
• SV: This is the best-value trim for most shoppers because it adds the 8-inch touchscreen, premium cloth upholstery, dual-zone automatic climate control, intelligent cruise control, and a leather-wrapped steering wheel without jumping to the sportier look of the SR.
• SR: Choose this if you want the most distinctive appearance and extra equipment, including 18-inch alloy wheels, LED headlights, remote start, unique exterior styling, and sport cloth seats with orange stitching.

The standard safety package is strong across the lineup, so you do not need to move up a trim just to get a solid set of driver-assistance features.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2022 Nissan Sentra?

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can afford to compare listings carefully before committing.

• Deal availability: 29.5% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 264 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 12.33% compared with last year.

If you find a listing below $18,982 CAD, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2022 Nissan Sentra's resale value?

The current average of $18,982 CAD sits slightly below last year's $21,651 CAD.

That softer pricing suggests the Sentra is currently more buyer-friendly than it was a year ago, which can make it easier for you to get into one now. For a future seller, that also means resale value may depend more on condition, mileage, and trim appeal than on broad market momentum.

Because the model is positioned as a practical compact sedan with strong safety and value, well-kept examples should still attract steady interest. Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 5/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2022 Nissan Sentra safe?

The 2022 Nissan Sentra earns a Top Safety Pick award from IIHS and five-star ratings from NHTSA.

It earns a 9/10 safety score from our experts.

The Sentra comes with forward and reverse automatic emergency braking, forward collision warning, pedestrian detection, driver drowsiness monitoring, lane-departure warning, blind spot monitoring, and rear cross-traffic alert. Available extras include adaptive cruise control and a surround-view parking monitor.

One caveat is that the adaptive cruise control can brake abruptly when it closes in on traffic, and the IIHS award comes with lower headlight ratings despite otherwise strong crash results.

Should I buy a 2022 Nissan Sentra or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2022 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2022 if:

• 29.5% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 12.33% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• It benefits from being two years removed from the 2020 redesign, which helps it feel modern and well sorted.

Consider the 2021 if:

• At $17,677 CAD, the 2021 costs less than the current year's $18,982 CAD average.
• It blends style, efficiency, technology, and performance into a smart, polished compact sedan.

The bottom line: If you want the better current-market balance of price, inventory, and a newer-feeling used car, the 2022 is the stronger default choice. If your priority is spending less up front, the 2021 is the sensible alternative and still delivers the Sentra’s core strengths.
