Sentra DET Concept
Nissan’s popular Sentra compact sedan gets a serious injection of speed with the Sentra DET Concept1. Inspired by the cars used in the Sentra Cup spec-racing series in Canada, which adds a U.S. round in 2024, the dynamic concept pays homage to Nissan’s past, beloved SE-R models and NISMO heritage. Showcasing exciting performance upgrades for today’s Sentra enthusiasts, it captures the spirit of Nissan's performance legacy, offering an exciting blend of style and dynamic enhancements.
Even before reviewing the build sheet, Nissan fans will have a hint as to the concept car’s powertrain thanks to its DET name – referencing some of the most popular Nissan performance engines of years past. Translating to “Dual overhead cam, Electronic Fuel Injection, Turbo,” the acronym has adorned the engines of thrilling Nissans like the Silvia / 180SX, Pulsar GTI-R, Skyline and Stagea.
Fittingly, the heart of the Sentra DET concept is a performance-built turbocharged MR20DD 2.0-liter engine mated to a 6-speed manual transmission and a prototype stainless-steel NISMO B18 performance exhaust that adds a deep engine tone.
Complementing the increased power, the concept rides on a prototype NISMO coilover suspension featuring twin-tube shocks and linear-rate springs, fine-tuned with the input of GT4 professional racer Bryan Heitkotter.
The concept also includes new 18-inch NISMO LM-RS6 wheels with various finish options, wrapped in high-performance Yokohama ADVAN Neova® AD09 tires. Inside are Recaro Sportster CS front seats and a NISMO GT shift knob.
