Fun to drive, fresh styling, available nationwide.
Interior
This year's reclining front seats are more supportive than last year's and the head restraints are adjustable.

Tilt steering has been added. All models now get Nissan's sporty white-faced instruments with a big speedometer

and tachometer. Also, the nice seat fabric is carried through the entire model line.

The SE comes standard with nicer seats, air conditioning, cruise control, a new AM/FM/CD stereo, power windows

and door locks and split fold-down rear seats. Fog lights, side sill extensions, along with a rear spoiler, give

it a sporty look.

The SE-R takes the trappings of the SE and adds a nice leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob and a

remote keyless entry system.

It's easy to get in and out of the 200SX, which offers more headroom than other cars in its class, something

taller drivers should appreciate. The sporty seats are very comfortable, providing better than average lateral

support. The 200SX offers an excellent view of the road and no distracting squeaks or rattles.

The instrument panel is straightforward, with a large tachometer and gauges that are easy to read. The dash is

attractive and functional, almost like a German car with its straightforward approach. We've always liked the

sporty black-on-white instruments that were introduced on the Maxima SE and we're glad to see them on the 200SX

line; they turn into a traditional white-on-black display at night. The heating and ventilation knobs are easy to operate, and commuters will enjoy one of the best cup holders in this class.

The 200SX offers roomier back seats than most of the other cars in its class. The trunk doesn't hold as much as some, but it offers a generous cargo capacity when the 60/40 split rear seatbacks are folded down. The trunk lid lifts from the top edge of the bumper, making it easier to load groceries and other cargo. Next Page
