Four Nissan Models Named Most Satisfying in Respective Segments

For the 25th year in a row, Auto Pacific released its Vehicle Satisfaction Awards, which recognizes vehicles in specific segments that leave customers the most satisfied. For the 2021 awards, four Nissan models — the 2021 Nissan Rogue, 2021 Nissan Armada, 2021 Nissan Sentra, and 2021 Nissan Versa — earned top marks in their segments.

Specifically:

  • The 2021 Nissan Rogue is the most satisfying midsize crossover SUV.
  • The 2021 Nissan Armada is the most satisfying large SUV.
  • The 2021 Nissan Sentra is the most satisfying compact car.
  • The 2021 Nissan Versa is the most satisfying subcompact car.

All four models are available at Bert Ogden McAllen Nissan in McAllen, Texas.

How Auto Pacific chooses the winners

The awards are a completely objective process. Auto Pacific surveys new vehicle owners (nearly 90,000) every year. They must rank their satisfaction across 36 different categories. The vehicles in each segment with the highest rating earns the award.

2021 Nissan Rogue: Most Satisfying Midsize Crossover SUV

The Rogue is a stylish, efficient, and, most of all, safe crossover SUV; that’s probably why families choose it more than any other SUV in the industry. In 27 out of the 36 measured attributes, the Rogue ranked the highest in its segment. Specifically, new drivers of the Rogue lauded its roomy cabin, easy cargo access, great interior styling, and available ProPILOT Assist, a semi-autonomous highway driving technology. Standard safety technology is one of the major hallmarks of the 2021 Nissan Rogue. The 2020 Nissan Rogue, the current model’s predecessor, also nabbed this award.

2021 Nissan Armada: Most Satisfying Large SUV

The Nissan Armada is a massive three-row SUV that delivers power, safety, and plenty of cargo room. Drivers of the Armada gave it top marks in 29 out of 36 categories compared to competitors like the Toyota Sequoia, Ford Expedition, GMC Yukon, GMC Yukon XL, Chevy Tahoe, and Chevy Suburban. Chief among those areas that drivers especially praise the Armada are its ride comfort, visibility, passenger roominess, handling, and driving enjoyment. Drivers also say it’s easy to get in and out of the 2021 Armada. This is the third year in a row that the Armada has brought home the Vehicle Satisfaction Award in the large SUV category.

2021 Nissan Sentra: Most Satisfying Compact Car

Compact cars remain ever popular because of their impressive fuel economy, especially in a time when gas prices continue to climb once again. And the best compact car on the market? Well, that’s the Nissan Sentra, according to drivers themselves. The Sentra was ranked equally or more satisfying than its competitors (think the Volkswagen Jetta, Honda Civic, and Toyota Corolla) in all 36 categories. That is extremely rare! Among the broad range of features that drivers appreciate about the 2021 Sentra are visibility, fuel economy, handling, power, acceleration, exterior styling, paint color choices, the modern cabin, braking, and passenger roominess.

2021 Nissan Versa: Most Satisfying Subcompact Car

Even smaller than the Sentra, the 2021 Versa is a subcompact car — and the most satisfying one on the market, to boot. In 33 out of the 36 surveyed attributes, the Nissan Versa came out on top (or tied for the top). The Versa is no stranger to the top of the pack; in fact, Auto Pacific awarded the 2020 Versa with the title of most satisfying subcompact car just last year. Among the features that new drivers most commonly cited as the reason for their satisfaction with the 2021 Nissan Versa are the list of standard safety features, interior design, seat comfort, fuel economy, braking, handling, bang-for-buck value, sleek styling, and standard equipment.
