Pain in the neck.... literally

When I purchased this car at just 1 years old and a little under 20,000 miles I only had if for 1 month before having to take it to the dealership for repair. The CVT transmission on this thing is complete crap and Nissan needs to just do a total recall and replace them. There is absolutely no acceleration with this car, so don't think you can jump across a busy street safely. You're either not going to be fast enough or the transmission is going to stutter and leave you sputtering in first gear. Now let's talk about the most uncomfortable car seats I've ever sat in, my neck is absolutely killing me after my 45 min drive to work. I dread driving home. Theres no real adjustments you can make to the seat or steering wheel. There's actually plenty of leg and head room, so I'll give it that. The trunk space isn't too bad either for the size of the car. Overall though this purchase has been the worst mistake of my life. I would advise to avoid it.

45 mpg on the highway, not a hybrid. Wow.

The five speed manual transmission gets remarkable gas mileage. If I do highway driving only average 45 MPG. If I do mostly city I average 36.8 MPG. That’s awesome lots of headroom and fun to drive.

Good mileage and a perfect first car with plenty of space for my music equipment. Not super exciting or flashy just gets the job done at an amazing price. Ideal for me, being 17

I got it as a rental. AT first I was surprised with how much space was in such a small car for the passengers at least, as the trunk space is rather symbolic. Nonetheless, once I started driving it all the charm disappeared. Was traveling alone, doing about 400 miles trip. Actually had to do more frequent stops than in any other car I drove in so far due to the pain in my back. The driver's seat is poorly made and absolutely not ergonomic at all. Not to mention it does not have any adjustments that could make it at least bearable. Road behavior of this car was not terrible, till it got hilly, and I had to stick to the slow, right line as its acceleration was marginal at best. The only good thing about tis car is it was cheap to rent and got about 36 MPG. That's about it. I've got a similarly weak car in the past, it was 1994 mazda cx3 with 1.6 motor and automatic transmission, yet the mazda's front seats were way better than this nissan's ones.
