Why is the old model of Sentra called Bluebird?
The predecessor of the classic Sentra was called Bluebird. The classic Sentra was originally written as BLUEBIRD, and then it became BLUEBIRD (bluebird) above and SYLPHY (Sentra) below. The new Sentra no longer has the word "BLUEBIRD".
To trace the development history of Sentra, we can go back to 1959, when it was called Bluebird, a small passenger car with a five-seat layout. The first generation of the car was sold to several countries, and it won over many consumers with its light and agile handling. The success of the brand also saw its potential and invested more in it.
The new Sentra was released in autumn 2006, positioning itself between Teana and Bluebird. It was a new medium and high-end sedan with a beautiful shape and spacious interior, equipped with the NISSAN developed 2.0L engine and new CVT transmission. Sentra is a global model developed by NISSAN, with the English name Bluebird SYLPHY.
The body design of the Sentra is smooth and elegant, inherited from the design elements of NISSAN's medium and high-end cars, such as Teana and FENGA. It has a unique and charming new fashion style.
The Sentra is equipped with the NISSAN developed 2.0L engine and CVT, which not only enhances the acceleration effect but also achieves low fuel consumption compared to other models in the same level, with excellent driving comfort and fuel economy.
According to the introduction of Dongfeng Nissan, the domestic "Sentra" has some upgrades compared to the Japanese Bluebird SYLPHY. The engine capacity is higher than that of the Japanese version, and the internal decoration of the car body is also relatively improved compared to other models in the same level.
