2020 Subaru WRX vs. 2019 Nissan Sentra
The 2020 Subaru WRX makes a mark with its debut simply because of its exceptional handling that goes well with its powerful engines. Also something to look forward to in the ride is its user-friendly infotainment system and comfortable seats.
As for the 2019 Nissan Sentra, there is already a larger standard touchscreen display inside when compared to its predecessor. Manual transmission is no longer available in its SR Turbo trim.
Design & Style
A compact car with the looks of a beautifully-crafted exterior, the 2020 Subaru WRX knows how to wow avid followers of the car brand. It has plenty of legroom and headroom both in the front and rear seats, thus making taller passengers able to stretch out even during long rides. It has a well-constructed cabin too which is evident with its excellent quality materials.
The 2019 Sentra, just like the WRX, can carry up to five adults in its spacious cabin. The comfort inside is impeccable, but the car does not garner points for its outdated interior. The cabin misses points because of the decision of not updating the overall look.
Technology & Safety
Fitted with the StarLink infotainment system, the 2020 Subaru WRX has functionalities supported by its 6.5-inch touch screen display on the dash. It integrated both Apple CarPlay and Android Autoand uses two USB ports, Bluetooth interface, satellite radio, and a six-speaker audio system. For your safety, you get to enjoy the standard rearview camera, together with adaptive cruise control, pre-collision braking, forward collision warning, reverse automatic braking, and a whole lot more.
The 2019 Nissan Sentra has a seven-inch touchscreen with its infotainment system. This works with the four-speaker audio, Bluetooth, and USB port. For safety, you can only count on the rearview camera as a standard. All other driver aids come with a price.
Performance
The 2020 Subaru WRX, like its predecessor, carries with it turbo engines in two variations. The first types if the base engine that rates up to 268 horsepower. The second engine version is found in its STI model, one that scores up to 310 horsepower. The four-cylinder base engine in the Sentra, on the other hand, only yields output of 124 horsepower, while its turbo-four version reaches up to 188 horsepower only.
The Bottom Line

It is stylish, loaded with technology and safety features, and has those powerful engines that easily topples down in its opponent in this bout.
