Versa versus others

2007 Nissan Versa 1.8 SL 4dr Sedan (1.8L 4cyl CVT)

Review

We spent quite a bit of time looking over the Toyota Corolla, and the Honda Civic. What impressed us most about the Versa was the smooth ride, quality, price, and the roominess. It had the others beat hands down. Having had the Versa for about a year, we are very happy owners of this delightful car. It is a fun car to drive.

Favorite Features

Love the sun roof, the auxiliary MP3 slot for my iPod, and the Blue tooth technology. Lots of room in the trunk of our sedan!

Suggested Improvements

Better cup holder placement - closer to the driver and passenger. How can you improve the gas mileage closer to 40 mpg?

Review

My son and I both own 2007 Versas. Both are 4 dr "S" sedans that we purchased about 4 months apart from the same dealer. I have 14000 miles on mine and average 27 mpg. Everyone from the big to the little people in our family loves these cars and I am going to buy a 2008 model soon.

Favorite Features

Strong engine, easy access with tall roof line. Perfect if you have neck or back problems, most of the cars sold today do not have tall roofs. Four 300 lb men can enjoy the room and comfort that this car gives. It is AMAZING!!!

Suggested Improvements

Moving the handle for the seat back release away from the seat belt clip lock mechanism. Also please move the overdrive button on the shifter from the side to the front. My knee keeps hitting the button.

18000 fun miles

2007 Nissan Versa 1.8 S 4dr Hatchback (1.8L 4cyl 4A)

Review

Had my Versa for almost two years and 18k trouble free miles. I get 30 in town and 35 on hwy (if you keep it under 70 mph). Drop air pressure to around 28-30psi and the bumpy ride disappears without hurting mileage. Big comfortable interior and very quiet ride. Enough engine power for high speed crusing unless you are carrying 4 people with luggage and ac on. Best hatchback on market and 2-3 grand cheaper than its competitors. Needs console armrest. Had aftermarket cruise added for $350.00 which works great. Good standard sound system. A baby Murano at half the price.

Favorite Features

MPG.

Suggested Improvements

Armrest.

Review

The Nissan Versa gives near-SUV interior room along w/ subcompact fuel economy. The engine has good power. Trunk space is excellent. The hatchback version of the car has a very attractive exterior styling. Many of my friends give wanting glances to my beautiful little car. I've had the auto for sixteen months now. With 28000 miles, it's giving me 28 mpg. Considering this car is one of the three cheapest on the market, I'm an enormously satisfied customer.

Favorite Features

Interior room. Gas mileage. Price. Styling (inside and out), mid-range acceleration.

Suggested Improvements

None.

Review

I purchased mine slightly used. This is my first car. I enjoy it and like it a lot. The only problem I've had so far is the hubcaps. They come off too easy. The fuel economy could be better but I get about 25-26. Which is nowhere near the posted. I have noticed the blind spot in the rear caused by the back window. It may just be mine but there is nearly no tint on my windows which causes a big problem with headlights blinding me at night, esp with bigger trucks.

Favorite Features

Comfortable and roomy interior. Great design.

Suggested Improvements

Get better hubcaps. Improve the fuel economy, more tint on the rear window.

Worst car I've ever owned

Vehicle

2007 Nissan Versa 1.8 S 4dr Hatchback (1.8L 4cyl 4A)

Review

I get worse mileage than I got from the 17 year old Grand Am this car replaced. Can't even count the minor problems I've had. Wouldn't recommend this car at any price.

Favorite Features

It was cheap.

Suggested Improvements

Fix the mileage. Fix the doors that lock themselves. Fix the windows that stick.

Best Economic Decision

2007 Nissan Versa 1.8 S 4dr Hatchback (1.8L 4cyl 4A)

Review

I traded in my 2003 Pathfinder LE for this vehicle. I was no longer towing heavy trailers so I didn't need it. I am 6'1" at 185 lbs, plenty of room. This car has much more head and leg room than my wife's 2003 Sentra. Fuel economy was much lower than the EPA estimates but still acceptable. The fit and finish is very good for this price category.

Favorite Features

Ease to drive, this car is very stable on the highway. Acceleration to hwy speed is acceptable. Seat comfort is outstanding.

Suggested Improvements

Aux input to base stereo. Fold flat rear seats.

Fuel Mileage

2007 Nissan Versa 1.8 S 4dr Sedan (1.8L 4cyl 4A)

Review

We traded in a 1998 Toyota Corolla to purchase our 2007 Nissan Versa in order to save gas. The sticker on the window indicated that we would be getting 28 city and 35 highway miles. We have now owned this car for almost a year and are barely getting 23 miles to the gallon, a far cry from our old toyota that ran perfect. So not only due we now have a car payment but a car that gets horrible gas mileage. We've tried several times to off load this to purchase a car that gets good gas mileage only to find out that a car we paid $14,000 for less than a year ago is only worth around 9 or 10 thousand dollars. I'm so sad that we no longer own our toyota. Cute car, fun to drive but don't buy it to save.

Favorite Features

Cute little car, fun to drive and a very roomy interior. Great cup holders.

Suggested Improvements

Poor Fuel Economy

Written by: C. Townshend on 05/19/2008

Vehicle

2007 Nissan Versa 1.8 SL 4dr Sedan (1.8L 4cyl CVT)

Review

I bought this car because I was persuaded by the dealer that the CVT sedan would get far better fuel economy than my Honda Civic. Having driven this car for almost a year and averaged little more than 21 miles per gallon, I feel cheated by both the dealership, and by Nissan who make the original claim in conjunction with the EPA. With gas prices as they are I cannot afford a vehicle that does not even come close to the advertized MPG, and I would warn anybody against buying a Nissan Versa if it's fuel economy you're after. I am not an aggressive driver and yet this car seems to drink gas like an SUV. I have a complaint in with Nissan and it has still not been resolved after 7 months!

Favorite Features
