I had 2007 Note. Roomy car and big trunk. Very little problems. I don't understand why so many thinks it's ugly. It's a car. 5 guys fit to it with computers if you want to go lan party. I can confirm.
My mom also has a 2015 Versa Note SL and I want to say a few points about your video: 1. The key’s battery usually lasts for a year, even Nissan says that’s normal. 2. The Note has the exact same platform and powertrain as the Versa except the body. 3. 2017 added the CVT with fake shifts, until 2016 the CVT was conventional. 4. The rear window is actually one of the biggest in its class it’s just how cars have become. 5. The Fit it’s terrible if you are tall, has a harsher ride, it’s more expensive and the armrest is useless I would prefer driving it but living with it I would rather have the Note. Still a good video and we love our Note, it’s been a great car!
i drive a 2013 Mazda 6, 6spd manual. my 2nd mazda 6, first was a 5spd and a hatchback, but both had the 4cyl option in common. I used to work at Toyota and came quite familiar with the yaris. At one point after a minor accident with the first mazda, I had a versa note for a rental and I couldnt get over how impressed I was with it in comparison to the Yaris. (Ive also driven the fit and Mazda 2, accent, fiesta...) IF I had to choose a car in that class, It would be the versa note.. but with a manual! ;) The CVT is a little weird, but does what its' suppossed to do. Nissan does the CVT best.
I have a 2006 Nissan Note 1.6 auto, it is a 4 speed auto not the notoriously unreliable cvt which are made by Jatco (part owned by Nissan) . My car has been very reliable only one duff battery and a cv joint needed replacing in 142350 miles .
*Everyone* in the comment section is talking about the Honda Fit... That car will always remind me of almost getting hit by one when I was 9. Irrelevant, I know.
I'd like to drive a vehicle having a CVT sometime. I find it kind of surprising that the engine doesn't develop a little more power (and deliver its peak torque rating earlier), but maybe that is so the CVT won't hurt itself. I'm not a fan of the styling, though at least the AM radio doesn't seem as "boomy" as most.
I've got a 2015 Honda Fit with a CVT and while it's weird to not hear it go through gear changes, it seems to deliver power a lot more smoothly than a standard auto. A lot of people said I'd have problems with the CVT, or that it would be worse but I've got great mileage out of it so far at 45K miles.
The first-gen Versa was my first brand-new car, and I didn't hate it. The earlier CVTs were not pretending to be normal "Automatic" transmissions, as the newer ones allegedly do. The car was good for what it was, but build quality sucked. I dumped it after the warranty was up, which was a good idea...
BBISHOPPCM's World Yeah I don't really understand that whole new trend with CVTs. My 2015 Fit still acts like a normal CVT and makes people wig out but I love it.
I have a little Suzuki Ignis with a CVT, it’s a bit strange to drive but it’s got very good power delivery. It’s only got about 66kw (1.2L 4cyl) but it hauls good when you put your boot into it even with heavy passengers in the car.
we have those here in the uk they're just called the nissan note though, they're great little cars. i learned to drive in one (it was a diesel manual transmission) and it was excellent to drive and surprisingly comfortable for a cheap car
I have a 2015 versa note,(manual) and its revs high even while cruising. 3500rpm at around 70mph and 4100 at 80mph,3000 at 60mph,am i the only one with this situation,ive had it for 4 years and its always been like that
Only thing I would have added to this review is testing out the overdrive off switch. I had a 2010 Nissan Versa Hatchback with a 4 speed automatic transmission that also had this button. Given it was a traditional automatic versus the Note's CVT, it might act differently. What I liked about it was for in town driving below 40 MPH. You could switch the overdrive off and the transmission would top out in 3rd gear to keep the engine reved up in a higher powerband. It really made the car lively in traffic for quicker lane changes and more responsiveness. Curious how it works in the CVT short of having to go out and endure a test drive at a local dealership.
Scott Warmbier the Honda would retain that value when sold, though. And the fit is much more reliable than the Note which saves a lot of money in the long run.
Hi friend. tell me nissan note 2016 year, how to translate consumption in miles to kilometers on the dashboard, and temperature from faringates in Celsius ??
In Australia, the Nissan Versa Note is called the Pulsar (which they don't sell anymore in Australia) and basically every car in the US from Nissan, are usually renamed something else (Leaf says the same, just 2019 comes out late)
My uncle has owned a succession of Toyota Yaris cars (he is on his fourth), usually top of the range models. He once had a problem with his keyless car entry system, but when he eventually solved the problem it was nothing to do with the car..... it turned out to be a wireless outdoor weather station transmitter operating on the same frequency as the car and interfering with it! The Yaris seems very similar to the NIssan except the Yaris is of much higher build quality.
Before the four Yaris cars he briefly had a Toyota Starlet, and before this he owned a Toyota Corolla from 1985 to 1998. Before the Toyota cars I think he had a Datsun Cherry, and before that a few English cars like Morris Minor although I forget the exact models.
I do like Nissan myself, I have a Nissan Micra/March from 2004 with nearly 300,000 miles on the original engine. Although a lot of the newer Nissan products are in conjunction with Renault and the quality has slipped somewhat.....
I had a similar issue with the battery in my 09 fiesta going flat too quickly , it was making por contact ( not sure why this would drain it) i bent the spring contacts for the positive and negative up a bit so its tighter and now its fine.
I need help installing Ubuntu Linux, I want to completely replace, no dual boot, my laptop has no DVD drive, when I download Ubuntu it installs a D Drive and I need an ISO, how do I convert that to use Rufus?
Not sure about the Versa Note but the Versa Sedan(Which is also known as the Nissan Almera or Sunny at some locations), that car does come with automatic climate control for the range topping model from where I am. But then at where I am, the Nissan Note was not offered at all. Just the Almera.
I think this car is way better than a Honda Fit, both in looks and in features. If the Fit is like the Jazz over here in Europe, it's closer to a Nissan Micra than a Note.
The Fit is better. It has more power but still gets better gas mileage. The 1.5 Honda engine sounds better and doesn't get coarse as does the Nissan's old 1.6. The magic seats on the Fit transform the vehicle into something much better for hauling cargo. Interior quality is a notch up on the Fit as well. Also, if you're buying new, the Fit holds its value heaps more than the Versa. the problem with the Versa is that it's the #1 choice for rental fleets on their economy lineup so the depreciation is quite severe (although if you don't mind buying used, the Versa can be good in this regard)
You might be right, but in the end it's a matter of taste, and I'm sure they did some research and testing before choosing a car and figured this is good enough. This is like the turntable argument all over again.
there are many variations of CVTs, the old ones usually worked well for speed but less good for torque. i think its a shame that modern ones dont have the ability to go full speed in reverse.
As somebody with a very comparative car-owning history as mine, and the same sort of enthusiasm towards older European cars, and diesels, how would you sum this car up? I find a lot of newer vehicles tend to have smaller rear windows, and absolutely horrendous blind spots. Currently driving a Mini Cooper, and contemplating replacing it; rather a lot especially when something else breaks on it, which as of late seems to be happening frequently. It's nice to drive, but reliable it doesn't seem to be. I've often wondered how CVT cars get better fuel mileage because they rev up so much - one of the driving clips in the video you're driving and getting up to speed at 3,500rpm, I just wouldn't drive my manual car like that, and automatics seem to shift around 2,500 under normal acceleration. I've yet to drive a CVT vehicle, and although understanding the basic principle of how they drive I still would like to actually experience it first hand.
DeWALTer_White how has it been doing for you so far? I just bought a 2017 Versa note SR. Lots of people are saying it won’t last long which is kind of scaring me n now it’s making me think I want a Honda Fit instead but idk
Amir Sejdic I just bought a 2018 with 6 thousand on it. Base model. Seems fine after a few weeks.. It’s really depends on the maintenance in all cars. Just take care of it.
The Versa is a pretty good cheap vehicle for around 12k new. The new Versa does not have a CD player anymore. I never seen any new vehicles have HD Radio as I am hearing HD Radio may phase out soon as many areas still hot have HD available due to costs of running them. The resale value isn't as good as Kelley Blue Book, N.A.D.A. & Black Book show bad resale value after 2 years. I had one made in Mexico & had problems with it noises & paint chips etc. I also had one made in US & part Japan & was much better than the one I had made in Mexico. I had a Ford also made in Mexico & had issues with it.
mY dad has a 2011 nissan versa. he has had it since new. and car runs great. they made the 2015 different but i dont know maybe it's same. kinda. the radio is different his isnt digital. also whats a good thing it doesn't have that power drive transmission. I drove a rental that had it and it seemed to just reg to 2 to 3 grand and it wouldn't have the normal shifting of a reg transmission
We Americans drive automatics because big-ass American cars and tightly packed urban areas don’t mix well, and makes all driving more of a pain. If we drove small cars from the beginning, we would be more inclined to drive stick.
Hopefully the smartkey system itself doesn't go out, if does it can cost between hundreds to a couple thousand dollars to repair or replace. I still like the old fashioned keys better. I have a link to a video that explains why push button start systems are not so cool when they break. th-cam.com/video/tbhHcxscu4Q/w-d-xo.html
Not a fan of CVT. My sister has had nothing but problems with her Rogue and to me it feels the engine will blow before the gears change. My Dodge Dart shifts at about 2-3000rpm and my sisters Rogue shifts at about 5500-6000rpm.
I know the first gen Rogues are known for having CVTs that die pre maturely, but most CVTs are well matched to the engine. The CVT in my 04 Murano lets the RPMs rise to about 2000-2500 rpm when I take off from a stop, then it does its best to force RPMs to stay at 1200 the rest of the way. Although I'm sure the 4 cylinder CVT cars tend to stick to higher rpms since they don't have as much low end power.
I rented one and loved it! Beat a late model Mustang GT driving through interstate traffic. The guy met me at rest area, and thought the Versa had a turbo. LOL! Nice review. Thanks.
New Jersey? I always thought that was a Philly accent lol I wonder if the battery in the keyfob runs down because it's being pressed constantly when your dad has it in his pocket or something. I remember our TV remotes would always die more quickly when they fell in between the cushions and buttons were always being pressed.
The Versa sedan always scares me. It's a top choice of those who've just wrecked and totaled their previous car sometimes by way of a DUI/OMVI or being piloted and co-piloted by a crew of tweakerz. I always give the Versa sedan wide birth....
Yo man I just got a cool old watch from a friend SEALED from 1997 , its a Timex Ironman Triathlon with data link, basically it talks with a CRT monitor. Pretty cool.
I like this class of car (practical, small but roomy inside), and frankly I think Nissan styled this nicely, but the CVT in this (and many Nissans) are just a hard pass. The same year Honda Fit is just much better imho and slightly roomier (and available with a 6 speed manual), but that said, it's $4K more (used) than this. Like many "ok" cars, this wouldn't be so bad except for the existence of better competitors.
I had a 2013 versa sedan. I hated it so damn much. The thing was dangerously slow, handled horribly and I had to drive 10mph on dirt roads. I was exited to trade it for a 08 Ford focus, a much better car.
The digital compression artifacts make HD Radio sound worse than analog FM, and in poor reception areas the receiver constantly switches back and forth between analog and digital, often with an echo because the two signals are not perfectly time-aligned.
Be glad it's not a Nissan Micra, I'm about 6ft and I don't fit in those, dunno if the more recent versions have changed, but, compared to the old 80s ones, they're not big enough inside, they make a 2CV seem roomy...
Are the new Micras really THAT bad? I must be glad that I drive a 20 year old one and since everything works just fine, I have no ambition to get a new one. I love that EVERYTHING is manual in my car.
The micra I didn't fit in was the older ones with the headlights so far up the bonnet they would work great in floodwaters (not that the car would be much use!), just felt like I was being crammed into something designed for people smaller than Richard Hammond...
That must be the 3rd or 4th generation. I'm also about 6feet tall and I have plenty of headroom in my 2nd generation Micra. It's not super spacious, but you can't expect that from such a small car. But it's cheap to run and extremely relieable.
Thing is, I'd been in 1st & 2nd gen Micras and they were quite roomy, but the 3rd gen (with the flood-ready headlamps up the top of the bonnet) just seemed to be far too small inside, especially the ex's micra, even with the seat rolled back, I still felt crammed in, like I say, they seemed to have been built for short people... Don't know what the 4th & 5th gens are like though, have managed to avoid them nicely so far... :)
i'm surprised it doesn't have climate control, only base model micras don't get climate control in Britain (at least the previous non-Renault version) and also no tweeters?! again all cars fitted with the Nissan Connect system in the uk have a six speaker system (woofer in the front and rear doors tweeter in the a pillar or top of the front door)
Zetorek my car is like that, pull the door handle and it unlocks, to lock it, you hold your hand on the handle on a specific sensor On door handle (on either side) and it locks
That's funny. I drive the european version of the Note in the same color. Motor is a 3 Cylinder 1.2L with 80 HP and Manual Transmission. Looks identical except the different front grill. Radio looks nealy the same but with FM/DAB and the USB Port is in the upper glovebox. Also mine have speaker in the A pillar. But no cameras. :-( The AC is the automatic version. Also have automatic Lights and Wiper. My average fuel consumption is 5.2L /100km or 54 MPG
uglier by far than most cars in general I'd say - the hatch isn't bad though there were a few years where even the hatch was at the bottom of automotive aesthetics list.
archechme The Versa Sedan/Almera/Sunny had the same style of door handles as well. They look really terrible. Especially the chrome finished ones on the range topping models(The lower range models had just matte black door handles which looks better. A little better.).
I had 2007 Note. Roomy car and big trunk. Very little problems. I don't understand why so many thinks it's ugly. It's a car.

Is the note still holding up? The today's market is telling me I should get one and with a manual transmission lol
The microphone quality sounds unusually superior most of the time. It's near radio-like quality
That's because the Sony camcorder I used compresses the audio nearly as much as a radio station does.
VWestlife Compresses as in good or bad? It can go either way you know.
Viou I think he is talking about compression as a sound effect, it reduces the peaks in practise. It's not a bitrate/quality related thing

A CVT doesn't have gears, so the OD Off switch just forces it to a higher ratio.
I own a 2017 Versa sedan, pretty decent cars for driving around the city, mine has manual transmission though.
Oh god I had the 2013 sedan version of this car and the CVT died at 70,000 miles ;~;
2014 version up is much better
Did they repair it for free under the warranty?
Yeah same here worst car u can by better by toyota
Nissan have good cars, but that CVT Transmission is the worth transmissions.
A Honda Fit would have been a much better choice
but you'd have to add about $3000 to get a similar equipped Fit - the Honda would be a nicer car for sure...
Scott Warmbier the Honda would retain that value when sold, though. And the fit is much more reliable than the Note which saves a lot of money in the long run.
I dunno man, the Versa is pretty damn reliable from my own experience.

Looks like a decent little cruiser. Rear seat legroom looks very, very good. And getting 35+ mpg? Not bad at all.
Am thinking of buying this exact model different color from a dealer $7000 manual transmission. Really thinking about it
I have a 2014 SV and whenever i use the cruise control i can tell when its adjusting the acceleration, its definitely a "dumb" cruise control.
Good review & great Nissan.

I'd imagine that since the key transmitter is by necessity transmitting all the time that it would drain the battery.
That car is the closest thing to My 2018 Honda Fit inluding the size, The Fit is a superb car in that category and cheaply priced too (17k)
It’s got the Nissan Juke stereo system and the interior handles.
It’s got some similarities from the Nissan Juke Bose edition
In Canada Nissan sells the Micra, even smaller than this car. It's the cheapest car in the country too, the base model is just under 10k.
Yes cars rolling over due to bad transmission knob designs are common these days, but the car company that had most problems was Chrysler.
This car is look okay to me. But I like previous generation of Honda Jazz (or FIT in the US) even more since recent model looks dull.

Do you have XM Subscription and did anyone tried it in Mexico or Alaska I would love to see how it dies when you are driving aroung
thanks youtube for bringing me here !
New Jersey? I always thought that was a Philly accent lol
I wonder if the battery in the keyfob runs down because it's being pressed constantly when your dad has it in his pocket or something. I remember our TV remotes would always die more quickly when they fell in between the cushions and buttons were always being pressed.
The Versa sedan always scares me. It's a top choice of those who've just wrecked and totaled their previous car sometimes by way of a DUI/OMVI or being piloted and co-piloted by a crew of tweakerz. I always give the Versa sedan wide birth....
Thank you
Hopefully it doesn't have the same CVT from the Sentra :(, two people I know have had lots of issues with them at only around 20k -30k miles
Yo man I just got a cool old watch from a friend SEALED from 1997 , its a Timex Ironman Triathlon with data link, basically it talks with a CRT monitor. Pretty cool.
Back up camera is now required by us law
Yes, on new cars manufactured beginning in March 2018.
It's sad that the manual transmission seems to be on its way out, I'll keep driving my 99 Cavalier 5-speed until it totally falls apart..
In Europe it is called Note
Do you have any updates about the eBay ssd?
Read the description of that video.
I like this class of car (practical, small but roomy inside), and frankly I think Nissan styled this nicely, but the CVT in this (and many Nissans) are just a hard pass. The same year Honda Fit is just much better imho and slightly roomier (and available with a 6 speed manual), but that said, it's $4K more (used) than this. Like many "ok" cars, this wouldn't be so bad except for the existence of better competitors.
I had a 2013 versa sedan. I hated it so damn much. The thing was dangerously slow, handled horribly and I had to drive 10mph on dirt roads. I was exited to trade it for a 08 Ford focus, a much better car.
Why do you not like HD radio?
John Beal it sounds terrible compared to regular FM radio. we have it turned off in both cars we own
Huh? You must have as shitty receiver then... HD Radio sounds much better.
Rogers Julianson I don't know. it sounds too harsh for my liking
Then maybe your equalizer settings are fucked
The digital compression artifacts make HD Radio sound worse than analog FM, and in poor reception areas the receiver constantly switches back and forth between analog and digital, often with an echo because the two signals are not perfectly time-aligned.
Your jetta(sold?) looked much better
You mean the red car? That was a Passat, not a Jetta.
What do you drive V? I see you as a early 80’s Mercedes type of guy.
I had two early '80s Mercedes-Benzes (a 1981 240D and a 1985 300D). But now I drive a 2012 Subaru Impreza. I have a video about it.
Be glad it's not a Nissan Micra, I'm about 6ft and I don't fit in those, dunno if the more recent versions have changed, but, compared to the old 80s ones, they're not big enough inside, they make a 2CV seem roomy...
Are the new Micras really THAT bad?
I must be glad that I drive a 20 year old one and since everything works just fine, I have no ambition to get a new one.
I love that EVERYTHING is manual in my car.
I'm 6'. I fit in the new Micra just fine.
The micra I didn't fit in was the older ones with the headlights so far up the bonnet they would work great in floodwaters (not that the car would be much use!), just felt like I was being crammed into something designed for people smaller than Richard Hammond...
That must be the 3rd or 4th generation.
I'm also about 6feet tall and I have plenty of headroom in my 2nd generation Micra.
It's not super spacious, but you can't expect that from such a small car.
But it's cheap to run and extremely relieable.
Thing is, I'd been in 1st & 2nd gen Micras and they were quite roomy, but the 3rd gen (with the flood-ready headlamps up the top of the bonnet) just seemed to be far too small inside, especially the ex's micra, even with the seat rolled back, I still felt crammed in, like I say, they seemed to have been built for short people...
Don't know what the 4th & 5th gens are like though, have managed to avoid them nicely so far... :)
i'm surprised it doesn't have climate control, only base model micras don't get climate control in Britain (at least the previous non-Renault version) and also no tweeters?! again all cars fitted with the Nissan Connect system in the uk have a six speaker system (woofer in the front and rear doors tweeter in the a pillar or top of the front door)
Looks practical, but soulless. Definitely not a dream car, but for the price? Yeah, probably pretty decent.
i had my 2015 sv until 2018 got repoed late 2018
Well the boxers or briefs question has been answered, well at least for your dad. LOL Very similar to my Toyota Yaris.
Good review. I'd say you're damn close to SaabKyle04 or Top Gear style on this one. :)
wow cars are expensive in usa...
Hero & Poloolpp in singapore even more so!
Choo Kwang Zhee okay. but Aussie cars are more expensive. Our M'sia cars and Brunei is cheaper :)
Hero & Poloolpp you wouldn’t believe how expensive a car could be in Dominican Republic (not to mention gas prices)
The engine looks identical to the Renault/Dacia 1.6 16v SCE engine, but I guess this is expected since Renault owns a large chunk of Nissan.
Renault Clio 😉👍🏾
you dont have to push to button to open just just grab the door handle to open
At least on this model, you do have to push the button.
oh wow
Zetorek my car is like that, pull the door handle and it unlocks, to lock it, you hold your hand on the handle on a specific sensor On door handle (on either side) and it locks
Regular Car Reviews called they want thier content back
Great info
That's funny. I drive the european version of the Note in the same color. Motor is a 3 Cylinder 1.2L with 80 HP and Manual Transmission. Looks identical except the different front grill.
Radio looks nealy the same but with FM/DAB and the USB Port is in the upper glovebox. Also mine have speaker in the A pillar. But no cameras. :-(
The AC is the automatic version. Also have automatic Lights and Wiper.
My average fuel consumption is 5.2L /100km or 54 MPG
That's equal to 45 U.S. MPG.
Just seen, i used the wrong calculator. Silly me....
Honda fit?
Honda Fit!
Also known as the Honda Jazz elsewhere in the world, often driven by 90 year olds at 23mph... :)
twocvbloke meanwhile this car is drive by a 90 yr old.
My 2014 Sedan gets above 44 mpg
@5:50 damn.
Why don't you guys buy volkswagen anymore?
I have to say its very ugly like most modern cars
uglier by far than most cars in general I'd say - the hatch isn't bad though there were a few years where even the hatch was at the bottom of automotive aesthetics list.
I agree
I don’t think it’s too much of a low end car I would say more mid
Those interior door handles are ghastly... They don't fit in with the rest of the car.
archechme The Versa Sedan/Almera/Sunny had the same style of door handles as well. They look really terrible. Especially the chrome finished ones on the range topping models(The lower range models had just matte black door handles which looks better. A little better.).
A Fit would be a much better car, these are honestly poo.
Dell0304 better than a last gen Compass
Anything is better than a Compass, lol.
Gas saving car
this has a larger interir than my fisker karma
:sx:
Underpowered I4, CVT, FWD, and pretty bad in a crash, should have gotten a Focus or Fiesta ST
The Versa Note and Fiesta both have a four-star crash rating.
David Malinovsky I know that
Fiesta ST? you could buy 2 Versas for what the ST costs - though I'd opt for the Fiesta ST for sure but they have a different mission in life...
