Nissan Launches Killer Sentra Lease Offer for July

The 2025 Nissan Sentra has never pretended to be a performance car. It's not especially fast, and it doesn't handle with much excitement. But for everyday drivers looking for an affordable, comfortable, and well-equipped small sedan, it's long been a strong contender. Now, thanks to a new lease offer from Nissan, it's one of the best bargains you can find in July. With gas prices still bouncing around and interest rates keeping new car loans high, leasing a compact car like the Sentra is a smart way to keep monthly costs down without settling for something stripped-down or outdated. This month, Nissan is offering the 2025 Sentra SV for just $239 per month on a 39-month lease. The deal requires $3,239 due at signing, not including taxes or fees, and it applies to vehicles equipped with splash guards and carpeted floor mats. You should find that deal in most major cities across the country, but exact figures can vary, so make sure to check with your local dealership if you're interested in the lease offer. While the down payment might feel steep for a compact car, the low monthly rate helps even things out over time. With many compact crossovers and rival sedans pushing well above $300 a month on comparable leases, this one stands out. Nissan's lease deal applies to the Sentra SV, the mid-level trim that balances affordability with added features. While the base model is fairly spartan, the SV trim brings in welcome upgrades like adaptive cruise control, reverse automatic emergency braking, and an 8-inch touchscreen display. The front and rear seats are surprisingly supportive, with quality materials that punch above the car's price point. You also get modern essentials like Bluetooth connectivity and automatic climate control. It's not perfect-the infotainment system can feel laggy, and the 2.0-liter engine doesn't offer much punch-but for daily commuting and city driving, the Sentra gets the job done with ease. What the Sentra lacks in excitement, it makes up for in usability. It's easy to drive, easy to park, and offers a quiet ride that's more refined than you might expect. Fuel economy is competitive for the class, and the safety tech included on the SV trim helps it feel more modern than some older competitors still using barebones equipment lists. The interior, while not flashy, is thoughtfully designed and relatively spacious for a compact sedan. You won't find luxury-grade materials, but the quality and comfort are better than average in this segment. If you're looking for a new car this summer and want to keep your monthly costs low without ending up in something bare or outdated, the 2025 Nissan Sentra SV should be on your radar. This lease offer makes it one of the most accessible and practical cars on the market right now. *Disclaimer: This article is provided for informational purposes only.

Nissan Recalls 444K Models for Potential VC-Turbo Engine Failure

Nissan is recalling 443,899 models for VC-Turbo engines that could possibly fail. The Nissan Altima, Rogue, and the Infiniti QX50/QX55 are models that have or had the complex variable-compression engine with bearings that could fail. Dealers will inspect the engines, and in cases where it's necessary, they will replace the engine for free. Nissan's novel variable-compression-ratio engine is at the center of a massive recall that involves nearly 444K models. The Nissan Rogue is the brand's most popular model in the United States, and as a result, it accounts for the majority of the recall population (348,554 total units). The Nissan Altima, as well as the Infiniti QX50 and QX55, are also among the models that are being recalled. According to a recall report that Nissan submitted to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) on June 26, 2025, the issue involves bearing failures. The report specifically identifies the engines' main bearing and the A-, C-, and L-links, which may be defective and could cause engine damage or failure. As a result, Nissan is recalling 2021–2024 Rogues and 2019–2020 Altimas (5685 total units); 84,536 Infiniti QX50s (2019–2022) and 5124 QX55s (2022) are also part of the recall. Marc Urbano | Car and Driver Marc Urbano | Car and Driver Nissan's VC-Turbo engine is the only one in production that can vary its compression ratio. It's designed to optimize either torque or fuel economy on the fly, and it took Nissan two decades and 300 patents to bring it to life. A turbocharged 2.0-liter version of the VC-Tfirst appeared on the 2019 Infiniti QX50 and then migrated to the Nissan Altima. The Rogue adopted a variable-compression 1.5-liter turbo three for the 2021 model year, and it remains the compact SUV's only engine. Nissan states that the bearing failures occur gradually rather than instantly, so drivers will likely have clues that their engine is on the fritz. Along with vehicle warning lights and messages, Nissan says drivers may hear an unusual engine noise or feel the engine running rough. Ideally, people who own vehicles involved in the recall will bring them into their dealer to address the issue before sustaining any damage or failure. Dealers will inspect oil pans for specific metal debris. If nothing is found in the three-pot VC-T, a technician will replace the oil pan gasket, engine oil, and reprogram the vehicle's ECU. Only the engine oil will need to be changed if no debris exists in the turbo four's oil pan. If there is debris where it's not supposed to be, Nissan says that it will replace either engine free of charge. A reimbursement plan will be available for owners whose warranty has expired. Dealers will be notified by July 15; owners will begin to be notified on Aug. 25, 2025.
