Recent Changes[]

Styles and Major Options[]
2007[]
The 2007 Nissan Versa is a small four-door available as a hatchback or sedan. Two trim levels are offered: Versa 1.8 S and Versa 1.8 SL. The 1.8 S is pretty basic. The base Versa S model comes with a 5-speed manual gearbox or optional 4-speed automatic transmission. Pricing with the manual is rock-bottom, but fuel economy sinks to an EPA-estimated 30 mpg Combined, and performance does not improve
2015[]
After a mild styling update for 2015, the Versa continues largely unchanged for the 2016 model year. Body-colored power mirrors are now standard; the 2016 Versa S model adds a rear speaker; and the 2016 Versa SL gains a leather-wrapped steering wheel. This second-generation Versa was introduced as a 2012 model.
2021[]
Nissan makes the 2021 Versa in three trim levels: S, SV, and SR. All three have a 1.6-liter engine and front-wheel drive. The S is the only trim that can be had with a manual or continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT); all others come exclusively with the CVT.

Unique Attributes[]
If there are any features of this vehicle that sets it apart from other vehicles in its class, then mention those unique attributes here.
Interior[]
Seating[]
Both the sedan and hatchback seat up to five people on standard cloth upholstery. Upgraded cloth, a driver’s seat armrest, and a leather-wrapped steering wheel are available. Faux suede seats are available in the Note only.
The Nissan Versa has spacious seats. There’s plenty of head- and legroom for two adults in the front or back, which is a rarity in this class. While the seats are generally comfortable for short trips, they feel less so on longer trips.
The Versa sedan and Note hatchback both have two sets of lower LATCH anchors in the rear outboard seats and a third upper tether anchor in the middle seat. The lower anchors are set deep in the seats and difficult to access.
Interior Features[]
Standard features in every Nissan Versa include air conditioning, a rearview camera, Siri Eyes Free, a four-speaker sound system, voice controls, Bluetooth, a USB port, and a 7-inch touch screen. Available features include remote keyless entry, proximity keyless entry, push-button start, power windows and door locks, cruise control, satellite radio, and NissanConnect with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
The Versa has one of the shortest standard features lists in the class. Even features such as power windows and locks aren't included in the base trim, though upper trims have these items. Some advanced safety features available in competitors, like forward collision warning and lane departure warning, are absent.
On the plus side, the infotainment system is intuitive. There are redundant physical controls for audio and climate settings, and everything is well-positioned for the driver to easily see and use.
Cargo[]
The Nissan Versa sedan has 14.9 cubic feet of cargo room. That’s a bigger trunk than most rivals. The Versa Note hatchback has 18.8 cubic feet behind the rear seats and 38.3 cubic feet with them folded down. Those figures are average for a subcompact hatchback. The Note’s rear seats don’t fold down completely flat, leaving an uneven cargo floor.
