"Or so starts the 1960 commercial for a recently revived car name and in my opinion this is THAT car for the 21st century. As many others have said don’t believe the "professional" reviewers this car provides adequate styling, power, handling, and standard features making the Versa an outstanding value on its own but we haven’t even mentioned the roominess, the ridiculous reliability, the huge trunk all wrapped up in a 40mpg compact car. It’s not a neck jerking sports car nor a couch on wheels and reviewers should not consider it as such. With all of this I do believe the Versa is the best car dollar per dollar on the market at this time."

"The Versa gives alot of value for your money, but creature comforts have largely scurried away on this model.
Fuel economy is awesome. Price points to buy are several thousand dollars cheaper at $14k, 15k, and 16-17,000 for a brand new current 2013. Another thing I really like about the versa is that it's easy to get in and out for a big fella like myself.
That being said, it's a commuter vehicle not a dragster. You can pass other cars effectively, but only if they are willing. The sipper of an engine gets 40+hwy, but will only impress you in the wallet. An ash tray is gone, but the cigarette lighter for your plug in remains. The only enclosed compartment for your stuff is a door hinged indentation on the passenger side. Nissan designers must like grab and go, because if you don't, your stuff will fall on the floor.
When all is said and done, despite some of the perks missing, its a solid car that will save you alot of money at the pump and it's easy to buy one at a great price. Good job Nissan! - U.C."

"I bought my daughter a fully loaded, power everything SV model in fresh powder with the cvt trans, I was extremely impressed with how large the inside felt and with all the power options the car has a more exspensive feel. Gas milaege is excellent and it meets the 2016 mpg mandate. I compared vehicle models in this category and after test driving all, I felt the versa was the best choice for money spent and factory options on car. My daughter loves the car and with 2 small children the versa should meet all her car needs."

"Have close to 200 miles in and the Versa SV is terrific. It get's me from point A to point B without spending lot's of hard earned cash. If you are looking for luxury then the Acura line is better, but for normal commute, it's been terrific. Getting about 40 mpg average and loving it. The CVT doesn't bother me so far - actually it is smoother than most normal tranny cars I've driven. I did own a Datsun B-210 (manual) and an Altima so I do like Nissan, but the my fact remains is that this car's ingenuity sticks out at me and I'm definitely loving it.
Take it for a test drive and you'll see. I did, and now I own one!!"

"Was looking for an economical car that was comfortable affordable and great on gas. I found it! Average 38 mpg. Roomy enough for a big guy like me and can still get 4 others in the car, not feeling like circus clowns. The price was SUPER! Only thing it does ride a little rough on bad roads, as do most cars its size. Peppy 1.6l engine. CVT is awesome. Don't overlook this car."

"I bought the Versa S Sedan with the automatic transmission. It is giving me great gas mileage, 35-38 mpg driving in the snow and warming it up. Very roomy for a big guy like myself, a plug in for my ipod and surprisingly good speakers. Good pep on highway acceleration for a 109 hp engine. Huge trunk though I would have preferred a fold down back seat. I don't mind not having power windows, but I'm getting used to reaching across and back to unlock doors manually! At least Nissan could have put a key entry on the passenger side so I can let my wife in first like the gentleman that I am. I had to buy a couple cheap mirrors to attach to the visors so she can put on her eye makeup.
But overall- I love this car for the price I paid!

"I read a lot of car reviews before purchasing a car. I recommend that you don't waste your time reading the so called "expert reviews" because they are a waste of time especially if you are looking for a practical car. They think that everyone is looking for luxury, fancy style and extreme performance in every car they review. For the price of this car and it's class, it is the best value I have found. If you are looking for what the "experts" think, this is probably not the car for you. If your looking for a very practical car with excellent gas milage, this is a great car. I get 41mpg driving to work going between 45 and 65 MPH with a handfull of stop lights/signs. I haven't taken it on vacation, but when I compared all of the cars in it's class it has the most passenger room and cargo space. The only thing that this car lacks is a cubby hole to put your sunglasses, but I solved that by buying a clip that holds them on the visor (only reason for 4 on interior design rating). Hope this helps you to make a decision on your new car."

"Good car for the money, and no else offers a car that starts at $10,700. A small car with a huge interior, back seat and the legroom is like a huge sedan. Mine is the base 'S' 1.6, only 'extra' is the automatic trans. For the base 'S', you don't get Nissan's CVT, but a regular 4-speed automatic, which is fine. Shifts very well and is quiet/smooth. Car rides well and is quiet, not much road or wind noise. Very good MPG's, the computer has me averaging 41 with highway and some city driving & traffic as well (my commute is around 150 miles r/t). A good, solid, comfortable car with a very roomy interior and trunk, from a premium automaker at an unheard-of price. I'm happy with my Nissan Versa."

"Great experience with Fontana Nissan, I did my homework and went to trade in my 2009 Versa, I knew what the value was, and what I expected to pay. I started with Leon he helped with my selection, we then went in and dealt with Marlon, the deal was closed pretty easily, they told me everything I expected to hear and didn't try to take advantage of me especially being a woman. Wes in finance finalized the paperwork quickly and professionally. I am now very happily driving a 2013 Versa. Thank you Fontana Nissan!"

"Just got the 2013 VERSA S PLUS w/ CVT and my girlfriend and I are loving it.
3 star for comfort due to a seat that's a little too small as in my legs aren't quite supported as well as I'd like. Feel like I'm hanging off the end and I'm not a tall guy. No center arm rest. Lot's of cup holders and quiet ride. Generous leg room in the back seats. Steering wheel tilts and headroom is nice!
5 star performance! It performs amazing for what it is. Sticker says 40mpg highway, we get 43.5 highway! And doing the math, we average between city/highway an impressive 40.1mpg due to the new CVT. Enough pep to march up steep hills and turning radius is fair!
4 star exterior. Looks way better then previous versa sedan (in my opinion). Enjoy the spoiler w/ LEDs and mud flaps are appreciated. But only 1 key hole on driver side? lame.
3 star interior. No trunk release! Easy to use media panel. No pockets for misc stuff in the dash. It's all very basic and average. But we didn't ask for more. Really wish there was a trunk release though.
5 value. Greater gas milage then stated and almost matching those of hybrids that double the price. 1st Tune up isn't required till 105,000 miles! Spacious for a compact. Brand new at $13,600! With that small price tag for a brand new car, I'm guessing sale value will not depreciate as badly either.
5 reliability. It's such a basic vehicle, there really isn't much to break. Manual windows and locks, I like. Two speed transmission. Chain driven, means far less tune ups. Advanced airbags surround the cabin. Doors give a healthy air tight sound when closing.
5 star OVERALL. Because, this is the car that fits our needs. Amazing on gas, made by a trusted brand, price tag is very reasonable, dumbfoundingly easy to maintain. It's very basic inside and out but in the end, we don't need anything more then a car that will just get us "there" safely and for less buck."

"I have owned many Nissans and only looked at the Versa SV after it was redesigned for 2013. Earlier models were just too small. This car represents a great value considering the safety features with the curtain air bags, antilock brakes, and the traction control.
The engine and automatic combination makes the car very easy to drive, and with 4 adults, the performance exceeded my expectations. This cars has decent power and great 38 plus MPG. I would have liked a larger gas tank, to get to the 500 mile range of an Altima.
This car was bought for my daughter, and her positive reaction to the styling, options, and interior space will keep her hooked on this brand. The visibility is great and access to the basic engine check points are benefits to this car.
It is a fact that the car lacks some quality in the interior, and does not have alot of fancy technology. In this car, less is really more."

"i have the base nissan. it comes with the essentials ac and a cd player. manual door looks are the only thing that is somewhat bothersome with small kids. and the drivers side door is the only one with a spot to unlock the door. other than that it is cheap good gas mileage. 39mpg with a light foot mixed. i have a manual. hvac is a liittle hard to get used to going from an fj cruiser to this. enough space to fit three kids in the back easy. its a pretty big back seat. and if you squint it looks like a sentra. some cheap rims and this thing will look good."

"It is cheap, fairly quiet, actually quite peppy for what it is. Mileage seems good with out a need to change my driving habits. Have to open the door to change the seat height or tilt. Did I mention it's cheap? No issues at highway speeds or rough roads.
I would not want to drive it across country but for short drives (100 miles) it seems fine. Grocery getter supreme.
