The all-new 2020 Sentra and 2021 Rogue both have the most standard safety features in their respective classes. 

Nissan Safety Shield 360 includes six advanced systems:

  • Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection – which uses forward-facing radar and camera technology to track vehicles and crossing pedestrians, can give audible and visual warnings and apply braking to help avoid or reduce the severity of frontal collisions

  • Lane Departure Warning – which can alert driver of drifting from lane with a visual warning and audible or haptic signals

  • High Beam Assist – automatically switches to low beam headlights when it detects a vehicle ahead and turns the high beams back on when appropriate

  • Blind Spot Warning – helps spot vehicles in driver's blind spot areas

  • Rear Cross Traffic Alert – can warn the driver about detected approaching vehicles when reversing out of a parking spot

  • Rear Automatic Braking – helps detect stationary objects when backing up and, if necessary, applies the brakes to help avoid a collision
