We know it as the Nissan Sylphy in Malaysia, while in other parts of the world, the C-segment sedan is called the Pulsar (Australia) and Sentra (USA). Here, we see a Sentra mule with covered front and rear ends, hinting that a midlife facelift is just around the corner.
It was said that the B17 is going to be totally redesigned for this facelift, but we can now confirm that the sides will remain unchanged save for perhaps the wings that connect with the new and sharper headlamps. There should be a new V-motion grille under there too – could we be seeing a new front look like that from the European Pulsar hatchback?
The fully undisguised rear lights have rearranged elements while the rear bumpers seems only a tad more curvy than before. It remains to be seen if the 1.8 litre MRA8DE engine with 130 hp and 174 Nm will soldier on. Nissan’s Xtronic CVT surely will.
The US market Sentra could transform to be sportier, following the path of the latest Maxima and Altima facelift, but the new look may not reach our shores, as it’s common for North America to receive sportier looks than the rest of the world. That’s generally the case with Toyota as well.

I thought the pre face-lift was launched not long ago but now-
Is the Latio old model still on sale omg…as foe the Sylphy hardly see any wit new number plate on the road..even Civic no see, mosly new Altis for c segment…oter brands like Ford Focus oso completely dissapeRed
This is a total failure hardly see on the road how to compete with other c segment player?
Nissan will also introduce D step shift logic programming to the CVT, that mimic a regular automatic transmission.The CVt will have the feel and sound like it is shifting like a six or seven speed automatic, but also drives like it.A turbo version may also appear as a concept was shown already.
Welcome to Altis CVT.
It makes me think our nissan range in malaysia is a confused mess with old models and new ones sold side by side under different names pretending they’re different series.
look at the driver

nissan always gives underpowered engine..
because most Nissan drivers always hog the right lane. Give powerful engine to them also useless and some more increases the car price.
