I'm getting almost 39mpg with the manual transmission. I do a balance of city and highway driving. The stereo sounds great, and the suspension is pretty comfortable.
I purchased my 2012 Versa in 2011 and still driving it daily. It has accumulated 130,000 km as of today. Had to replace the front struts when it was 4 years old. The CVT gave in before 5 years ended. The dealer fixed it and costed me nothing but never told me what’s wrong. I cannot see any evidence under the hood that the CVT has been worked on or replaced. My mechanic friend told me it was likely a computer software issue? I believe it is time to replace it the near future? The 2024 looks good but the back seat leg room is a lot less. It’s a 50/50 decision if I have to make the choice today. After all, I honestly believe it’s good value IMO.
I bought my 2024 Nissan Versa SV and I love it....... Im getting 43 Miles per gallon you really cant beat this! This is the closest you come to not buying an Electric car which is definitely coming soon. I love driving this car its an incredibly great ride for $21,000 dollars believe me I was quoted more than $21,000 dollars on used cars. Nissan Versa is the last subcompact car on the market but worth every penny.
Hard to complain about anything here. My daily was a 2001 Civic that didn’t have AC, was leaking left & right, & had analog everything. Unfortunately, you need a car to really exist in a lot of cities here in the US. Having an affordable (compared to other manufacturers) option like this one makes Nissan alright in my book.
Agreed, we've had 4 Nissan CVT's and I change fluid every 25k including the small paper filter. Screen about 60k. Use scan tool to level off. Curranty have 140k on '13 Sentra. Runs the same as new.
I'd say using the Nissan NS-3 (3 qt at around $14 a qt plus the paper filter around $10 online) $50ish plus my time. Mind you, having a scan tool that can access transmission temp helps too. @@stealthis
Me and my wife went to niagra falls 4yrs ago with our 2013 nissan versa without any problem. And we still have it until now. But in need repairs 😅 and time to let it go soon.
This is not cheap in any parameter. Cars became expensive in USA due to inflation. I must still say that cars are far better in India if I were to compare the cost vs features vs affordability matrix. This was not the case earlier. This car can be compared to Honda City which is sold in India by similar Japanese manufacturer, but that car is very nice and roomy. Also I don't know why there are not many car decors shops in USA who can do custom car covers, car floor matting, floor mats. This is another segment which I like in India where you can choose your car cover fabric and get it custom stitched to your liking. This makes a lot of difference in affordability too. I only wish American people could experience such kind of options available and come up with business ideas to make it viable to mass market.
Wonder why the back seat is small in new versas. I remember older models there was lots of space in the back seat even for 6 foot plus people. That was one of it’s biggest advantages over other cars in its class.
you can actually get Apple Carplay/Android Auto on the S model if it comes with the S plus package, it also gives you bigger/nicer wheels like on the SV. i got a 23 SR a year go in N TX, first one to drop in the whole area, lucked out! been a great little car, and the sound system pretty decent too, since you get 6 speakers, instead of 4 like the S and SV. it's gotta be a Bose, sounds too good ☮
15" wheels on a subcompact car are not "pretty small". They are actually, fairly large. If I were buying a higher trim level of Versa, part of the deal would be that they put the 15" wheels back on. Better ride, less likely for pot holes to cause wheel damage, more inexpensive to replace.
You’re telling me that a puddle jumper gets only 30-35 mpg on a good day? I’m old enough to remember when there was no versa; and all but the California spec Sentra got over 40mpg..
I saw one like this the other day same color too, they seem rare and hard to find. What is the color? Really nice car in person for a small car! Currently own '13 Sentra SR around 140k. Going to run it till the CVT drops... fluid changes every 25k including filter.
Only 2k $ more for automatic transmission & better fuel economy? it's not a deal: stick with the stick. In the long term this will avoid costly cvt transmission repairs .We are lucky to choose a manual gearbox here, it is worth learning for dummies. I prefer replacing many clutches rather than the entire trany.
It may be affordable but I wish I hadn't bought mine. This car is shorter than the 2015 Versa I had. Rear seats have no leg room. Trunk is smaller. Front passenger seat can not be changed in height. Glove compartment is smaller. You have to buy your own screws to attach the front license plate. At this time you can't get the cameraa (which cover a large part of the windshield), auto dim rear view mirror factory installed. The worst part is they built the car with crevices that can't be cleaned of debris all over the car ( too many recessed gaps between top and sides of car and front and rear windows. Not worth the cheap price.
The problem is when you add the useless nitrous that you don't want and many other serious markups, it could easily get to $40,000 or more in dealer markups. I will not pay $40,000 or more for a cheap Nissan Versa. Buy from a private individual. I can't believe all the markups at various dealerships I've been to. I will never buy from a dealer after seeing car prices at least double. It's funny how all car reviewers lie about being 6 feet tall, and I guess because they are salesmen of 2024.
Tony Serra Highland Nissan. Bought a manual from them earlier this week. Paid sticker price, only questionable extra fee was a less than $300 "Doc" fee. No unwanted dealer add-ons, no high pressure tactics. You need to find some better dealers. My out the door cost was just under $20,000, that included destination, tax, title, registration. On top of that, they drove my old truck back to my house the next day (close to four hours round trip for two people). No charge for delivering my truck.

You have a great build in anti theft device as well, a manual transmission.

Wireless charging pad was a real surprise on a car in this price point, especially when you have to step up to SL trim on Rogue or Altima

Most trustworthy car reviewer I’ve ever watched on this website. 😭
I bought the new version of versa today I think it is a good car for the price today
Nissan is not good car don't loose your money transmission is not good
It is cute, comes loaded with stuff, and gets great gas mileage.
Thank you for the manual gearbox Nissan!!!
Perfect car for a new driver. Minimal , simple gets your from a to b.
Fantastic Presentation Champ.
Personally CTV transmission fuid drain and fill Never do a flush. I say every 15,000 miles help keep CTV transmission.

I have a 2023 Versa and I absolutely love it!!!
CVT Fluid every 30K NOT 60K, sell it once you get to 100K.
I don’t expect to do 30k in 15 years
The fluid breaks down over time. Havoline CVT Fluid has a shelf life of 60 Months.@@Tom-sg4iv
I have done it every 45k miles and no issues so far at 120k miles
It has not look burnt or stinky when changing fluid
Manufactures generally recommend 60K. The shelf life of CVT fluid is 60 months. 45K should be fine.@@reyperez3424
Wise statement about CVT fluid change
Get the 5speed manual.
Why so 👀
@@tylerbuck9347 Because driving a stick shift is fun. Driving an automatic is boring.

Wish a hatchback like older models
Versa Note was a good little vehicle

Only if equipped with the cvt. S plus package is not available with manual transmission
for an Uber driver that needs a cheap reliable beater or a Turo host this car could be a gold mine. As both, I like it
Sad thats its a dying segment in our market because it was entry way into getting into a new vehicle all these crossovers cost way more
Nissan should offer a Hatchback option, like the Note.
They do, it’s called the “Kicks”.
Tried to build and price on the Nissan Canada website, and it doesn't look like a manual transmission is an option.
Will 17 tires fit on my sv? I noticed my sv tires are a tad smaller than the sr, im looking to buy new tires if i can

Great review and I may consider one now over a small SUV?
Is that the equivalent of Nissan Sunny in Middle East and Indian markets?
...how come we don't get a manual in Canada..... dang it Nissan! As for the CVT's, just change your fluids and filters on a regular basis..
Cool car
A very amazing car and my cousin had one. She even paid cash for it to.
the height of the roof from the ground is far lower than what the versa was back in 2016... the 2024 versa seems way smaller than the 2016 versa

Grey sky pearl. Nissan has the nicest grey colors. I also love the boulder gray pearl. My car is white. That's all they had when I bought it.
@@Jan96106 Thanks! Really a different color!
Great car
Time definitely changed
I want one! I like small cars!
Bruh this car not small lol
@@goga.games18 In the USA, it's the smallest car you can buy. The Mitsubishi Mirage, Chevy Spark, Hyundai Accent & Kia Rio have all been cancelled.

change my nissan 2023 for 2024🤩 from dominican republic
You didn’t push the turbo button
What's the towing capacity with the manual transmission?
You towing with a subcompact sedan?
Malaysia have 1.0 Turbo
seems to be the last car in US that offers manual transmission in budget car line. Everyone is going cvt. Ugh.😢
What's the fastest that it can go?
110 mph
The height of the 2024 Nissan versa is lower and the ground Clearance is lower than the 2016 Nissan versa ...the car feels much smaller.
