Nissan’s all-new 2013 Sentra is going to arrive this fall. Nissan hasn’t officially unveiled the next Sentra, although we’ve seen a teaser photo and the Chinese-market Nissan Sylphy, which is basically the Sentra.

Nissan’s all-new 2013 Sentra is going to arrive this fall. Nissan hasn’t officially unveiled the next Sentra, although we’ve seen a teaser photo and the Chinese-market Nissan Sylphy, which is basically the Sentra. Nissan just announced that the production of the 2013 Sentra is going to move to Nissan’s Canton, Mississippi plant this fall.
The addition of Sentra production, along with the planned November shift of the Frontier pickup and Xterra SUV to Canton from Nissan’s operations in Smyrna, Tenn., will create 1,000 jobs, growing Canton’s workforce to more than 4,500. “The addition of Sentra production is a testament to our dedicated Canton workforce and the high level of production quality that they deliver each and every day,” said Bill Krueger, vice chairman, Nissan Americas. “The Canton team has proved it can compete and win on a global scale, and it is due to this that we are adding three vehicles to our production roster in Mississippi.”
Production of the Sentra will also still take place at Nissan’s plant in Aguascalientes, Mexico, where the model is produced today. Nissan expects the two plants will be able to supply a greater volume of the all-new 2013 Sentra than ever before.
