The Versa sales are up 45.3% year-over-year for the second quarter of 2024. The current high cost of food and shelter combined with high interest rates leave little for transportation. The days of the 80-100k+ trophy trucks are largely over.
Just got a GSP 23 SR like 2 months ago, amazing mpg, drives really well, not intrusive at highway speeds, good Continental tires stock. It’s everything I asked for after getting Destoyed on gas with my Nissan Frontier the past few years. I would expect the CVT to last a very long time, they have been refining it for years now.
I can’t find any competitors who offer as many extras in a low budget car then the versa and Sentra. The options you get for the price is damn good. Now will the dealers bend people over or not is the question.
Love the Versa SR. The Electric Blue is hard to come by and dealers aren't dealing on the Versa because they are limited. I'd really like to get one through.
Nissan would be out of the their minds if they stop offering the Versa. Lots of people are not willing to spend more than $20k for a new car! Or they can't afford it. I doubt they stop selling it. I hope I'm right. I'll probably get one as a first car for my daughter. Still thinking about it
Only 19,000 units sold in one year screams: NOT Profitable. NOT wanted. The American dream car: MSRP $18000; 0-60 time 4.5 seconds; 300 HP turbo engine; 70 mpg at 70 MPH!!!
My only complaint as an owner are the rear censors.. when parallel parking, the car will make a loud noise and disable the throttle when coming only kind of close to the car behind you. You can only disable the beeping. As I live in the city, this is the absolute worst. It makes it incapable of parallel parking in tight spaces. Not the choice if you parallel park every day. Great gas mileage though
How close can you get to the car behind it before the throttle cuts out? I too have to do parallel parking frequently and I can squeeze a car into spaces others have to pass on, so this info is really important to me. Thanks.
@@scottdean27 having trouble finding the exact distance. It is called rear automatic braking. They might be a way to ask the dealership to turn it off but Im not sure. But its about a little more than the distance needed to walk between two cars. Maybe btwn 1 ft to 2ft.
Thanks for answering my question. I appreciate it. Just one last question. As a fellow stick shift driver, I see the Versa 5-speed manual doesn’t come with the 60/40 fold down rear seat. Bummer. Does the back seat fold down as one piece, or is it fixed in place and not fold down at all? Thanks again.
@@scottdean27 I have never tried.Thats pretty unfortunate. The trunk is pretty spacious though. You could ask a Nissan dealership, sometimes they can give some options if not recommend another model.
This was a good review, but please show under the trunk floor so we know if there is a compact spare tire or just a can of crappy Fix A Flat tire goo. Also, you should check the tire pressure. I sure hope it wasn’t 47 psi as that could be really way too high. I could see it getting elevated if it was a super hot day and the car was out in the sunshine all day, but it sure looked like an overcast and mild temperature day.
Can you help me understand why the sport mode button is on the shifter, but if you look very closely at the bottom of the dashboard next to the odometer, it has a the word sport written, however I don’t know how to get it up
Its not more spacious than the sentra. Without looking at the figures i can tell you that's not true. The last generation was bigger but don't be fooled. The sentra is significantly wider and feels mores spacious when inside.
I don’t disagree, just really tough finding empty areas in the heart of Tampa without being somewhere pretty sketchy lol Only reason I choose this spot by the airport 👍🏼
My boss bought a 2023 versa brand new and the cvt went out at 18,000 miles. The company knows it sucks, the dealers know it sucks, and customer should know it sucks.
@@KingDread666Bad luck. I have a 2017 nissan versa and i love it. it’s at 98k miles and it hasn’t given me a single problem. been on many road trips with it. I am looking at a bigger car now tho for diff reasons. I’ll miss my versa.
@@JenniferKellyagreed, my 2014 versa is at 100k miles and is still a powerhouse, unfortunately it has given me a TON of problems with the AC but I’m not sure if that’s just limited to the 2014 models
from around 16k for the past half decade to around 20k, up a few thousand dollars just like every other entry 2024 model. the perfect car if you like to buy high and sell low. don't be a pawn to current financial conditions. source a used Camry instead.
Most Camrys are going for around 19-24k used with roughly 24k miles on them, although Toyotas are known to be reliable buying a new car seems worth it at this price point

you can order them trimmed out the way you want from the factory ( through the dealership ) . Takes about 3 weeks for delivery from what I've read .

Why are they limited?

simply great review. we now live in a world where even the cheapest cars have seriously great features. and even design.
Amazing review bro.
My son has a 2023 Sentra SR and loves it. Electric blue.
Can you tell me about the sound system?
How did you feel in it as far as comfortable driving position? Im also 6'2 and wondering if its even worth a look. Thanks
If your looking for something sporty in the same price range the ki forte gt is a good pick

There is a secret sport mode button on the Versa SR, on the shifter, it's a button marked with a line that you press.

Drum brakes out back? Really? come on this isn't the 1950's anymore. I thought they went bye bye with rear drums years ago on all cars.
, l really get attention over this car Nissan nice price 💲👍
Insane new Nissan Versa SR sedan to buy.
Eye damaging headlights. Woo Woo!
Anybody have experience with the 5 speed manual transmission model?
I got it. Nice that its much cheaper. Less options in color and only basic trim available. Super simple car, but great price
Also, im getting a combined 39.2 mpg. Spending only 30 bucks for a full tank is a luxury
All new??? No it isn't it is just a midcicle refresh....

Is not a worst location to show a new car? The background is terrible bad looking😊

I want the 5 speed base model
Paint on these chips easily, CVTs are garbage. Long shifts, will shit the bed before the car hits 100k is my prediction'
A car that’ll put me to sleep while driving and leave me stranded at 75,000 when the cvt dies
the CVT is fine it's not 2015 anymore lol

Don't buy this cause of the cvt. With little cars going away, I don't know if buyers can wait out the pandemic mark up.
I got the manual for 17.5K. Cheapest car of the year. Used car prices are unreasonable around me

This car is not reliable.
Bro the car is an automatic.
This is sad. Where did you pop up man?. I thought you were going to test a manual. You dont even know cars dude.
96% of cars sold in the U.S. are automatics 🤡🤡🤡🤡
That JATCO cvt is sus tho.
