The Nissan Versa is a well-built small sedan, with plenty of space inside and enough standard technology and safety features to easily justify its price. Solid fuel economy is another bonus. The Versa's slow acceleration is a bummer, but overall it's a smart pick for an affordable small sedan.

Pros
- Lots of features for the money
- Generous cargo capacity
- Impressive fuel economy
- User-friendly infotainment system
Cons
- Sluggish acceleration
- Not much interior storage for small items
What's new
- No significant changes expected for the 2024 Versa
- Part of the third Versa generation introduced for 2020
Overview
We expect the Versa to continue into 2024 with few, in any, changes. Nissan has peddled its smallest car for a decade and half on the merits of its low cost, value and high fuel economy. And we expect it to continue to shine in those areas in 2024. It won't surprise us if Nissan does away with the manual-transmission version, which trails the CVT-equipped models by 5 mpg in combined fuel economy. And it's plausible Nissan will make more technology and safety-related driver aids standard equipment, though the Versa certainly doesn't embarrass itself in those areas now.
Cost to DriveCost to drive estimates for the 2024 Nissan Versa S 4dr Sedan (1.6L 4cyl 5M) and comparison vehicles are based on 15,000 miles per year (with a mix of 55% city and 45% highway driving) and energy estimates of $3.12 per gallon for regular unleaded in Virginia.

Edmunds spotlight: A good pick for tech and safety
Among subcompacts the Versa leverages its value. Its list of standard and optional equipment downright embarrasses competitors. Standard on every Versa are: automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, lane departure warning, rear automatic braking and high-beam assist. A blind-spot warning system with rear cross-traffic warning is included on the midlevel SV model. So is wireless phone charging, a feature often reserved for luxury cars. Remote start and adaptive cruise control are included with the top-level SR trim. Those are features not found in the Kia Rio or Mitsubishi Mirage. The Versa makes a solid case for itself on features alone, but among cars in this segment it's also the most enjoyable to drive, offering comfort and predictable handling.
Competitors to consider
As SUVs continue to proliferate, there are fewer and fewer inexpensive subcompacts like the Versa. In fact, we can now count them all on one hand: Nissan Versa, Kia Rio and Mitsubishi Mirage. The Mini Cooper fits into the subcompact size category but costs considerably more than the other models. So if you're shopping this category on price, the Versa has only two true competitors. Read our Expert Rating for all of the Versa's strengths and weaknesses.

Rated for you by America's best test team.
Performance
7.0/10
How does the Versa drive? You can't expect an economy-minded sedan to be quick but the Versa's four-cylinder engine takes its time getting you up to speed. There's little issue in typical driving around town or fitting in with traffic. But in cases where you need to pull away quickly or have limited space to make a pass, the Versa leaves you wanting. At the Edmunds test track, our Versa accelerated from 0 to 60 mph in a leisurely, and somewhat noisy, 10.4 seconds. It's one of the slower vehicles we've tested in a while.
You'll be more satisfied with the Versa's handling. It stays composed when going around turns. The steering is a little numb and can feel a little too heavy at times, but the Versa will follow your directions surprisingly well. The Versa's brakes also work well in emergency situations, and and the brake pedal makes it easy to stop smoothly in routine driving.

Comfort
7.5/10
How comfortable is the Versa? The seats in the Versa SR, which is what we tested, have comfortable cloth that is generally firm. But the seats run a little narrow under the shoulders. They offer good support on short- and medium-length drives, though the lack of sufficient lumbar support might require breaks over longer trips. The rear seats are similarly firm but still comfortable.
The Versa rides smoothly over most surfaces, but like most inexpensive vehicles, it can get bouncy over lesser-quality roads. Wind noise is prevalent inside the cabin, and if the car hits any bumps, you will hear it. We appreciate the climate control's straightforward arrangement of real buttons and knobs and found the vents to be easily adjustable and well placed.

Interior
8.0/10
How’s the interior? The Versa scores high for its interior design. It's easy to get inside and adjust the seat to your preferred driving position. The cabin is relatively roomy too. Even at the highest driving position, which feels almost like you're in an SUV, there is plenty of headroom with space to stretch your legs. It's similarly spacious for passengers in the back, but taller people might feel their head brush against the headliner.
The touchscreen is responsive and provides a clear picture. The controls on the center stack and steering wheel are straightforward, and you can use the tuning button to scroll through screens, which is easier than poking the touchscreen while driving. It's pretty easy to see out of the Versa thanks to the short hood and large windows.

It's pretty easy to see out of the Versa thanks to the short hood and large windows.
Technology
7.0/10
How’s the tech? Our test car, equipped in the top-of-the-line SR trim, came with an 8-inch touchscreen and a six-speed audio system. Clarity at normal volumes is good, but you'll need to turn up the volume all the way up to drown out noise at freeway speeds. Onboard navigation isn't offered on the Versa, but most trims come with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone compatibility that allows you to get directions on screen powered by your smartphone. Integrating your phone happens quickly. The SR trim also includes a wireless charging pad.
The Versa's advanced driver aids are helpful without being intrusive. Forward collision warning activates with a simple string of beeps. Lane keeping warnings are also gentle buzzes. The biggest weak points are a low-resolution rearview camera and an overly sensitive backup collision mitigation system. During our testing, this system mistakenly triggered when one of our drivers was backing into a street from a mildly inclined driveway. It slammed the car to a stop.

Storage
7.0/10
How’s the storage? The Versa has a lot of trunk space for this class of car. Cargo capacity maxes out at 15 cubic feet, more than most competitors, and the trunk is deep enough to accommodate larger items. The load floor is relatively low for a sedan, and the rear seats fold down if needed.
Small-item storage is not a strong suit. The center armrest is optional and can barely fit a smartphone. Child seat accommodation is better. There is good space for a rear-facing seat in the back. The lower car-seat anchor points are hidden between cushions, but they're easy to locate and attach to. The rear seats have integrated headrests, requiring you to wrap the strap around them to attach to the rear tether hooks.

The rear seats have integrated headrests, requiring you to wrap the strap around them to attach to the rear tether hooks.
Fuel Economy
8.5/10
How’s the fuel economy? The Versa equipped with the CVT automatic has EPA-estimated fuel economy of 35 mpg combined (32 city/40 highway). That's right up at the top of the class. Our test Versa soared above that with a 41.1 mpg average on our 115-mile test route that combines street, mountain roads and freeway driving.
Value
8.0/10
Is the Versa a good value? The Versa offers basic affordability without feeling like you're punishing yourself. It feels tightly built, with higher-quality materials than typical for the class, and provides more pizzazz than your usual econo-sedan. There is interesting tech and enough safety equipment to easily justify the cost of entry, with room to add options and still stay close to $20,000.
Nissan offers a pretty middle-of-the-road warranty with basic coverage for three years/36,000 miles and powertrain coverage for five years/60,000 miles. Hyundai, Kia and Mitsubishi all go up to 10 years/100,000 miles. Roadside assistance is offered for three years/36,000 miles. Most rivals offer better coverage, and some provide free maintenance for up to three years.

Wildcard
7.0/10
The Versa has no delusions of grandeur. There are no superfluous paddle shifters, fake vents or Sport mode. It's an economy car that offers space and safety technology at an attractive value. That said, the steering and handling are decent for the price, and even a few of us will admit we like the style and feel of the flat-bottom steering wheel. This is a slow car. There's no getting around it. But the Versa makes a good effort to avoid being soulless and feeling cheap.
Which Versa does Edmunds recommend?
Nissan hasn't released official information on the 2024 Versa as of this writing. We'll update our recommendation if anything changes, but based on last year's Versa, we think the SV is the best value. It rids the Versa of the cheap-looking steel wheels with hubcaps and replaces them with alloy wheels. It also adds rear cross-traffic warning and blind-spot warning, two valuable safety features.
Nissan Versa models
[Editor's note: The following unofficial information is based on last year's Versa. We expect the 2024 model will have a similar lineup and we'll update this section once we have complete information.] The Nissan Versa is a subcompact sedan available in three trims: S, SV and SR. Every Versa is powered by a 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine (122 horsepower and 114 lb-ft of torque) that sends power to the front wheels. A five-speed manual is standard on the S, and a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT) is optional. The CVT is standard on SV and SR models.

5/5 stars, Outstanding!
Spiderman,
SR 4dr Sedan (1.6L 4cyl CVT)
I researched this car to death before I bought it. I got the SR fully loaded. Love the technology of Android Audio, blind spot, and sensors. Gives a very nimble ride. Get 41 mpg when drive 70-75 mph. Get 50 mpg when drive 60 mph. Seats very comfortable. Very nice sound system. This car is the best deal out there.
5/5 stars, Fun, zippy, gas saver!
MistaT,
S 4dr Sedan (1.6L 4cyl 5M)
I am a car guy, and the Versa is not really know for being for us car guys/gals. BUT, this car is very fun!
The interior and exterior styling looks awesome, and is easy to clean/wash. Truck space is huge, and space is plentiful.
I have the 5-speed with the 1.6 liter engine (HR16DE). Contrary to what others say, it accelerates nicely, and I am currently getting 45 mpg (empty car, … highway miles).
The only complaint I have is I feel there should have been a 6-speed transmission. The engine screams at 3,500RPM @ 70mph.
As for reliability, it has not given me any issues. I'll come back in a few years and let you know...
UPDATE: The infotainment (which is also the radio) is very picky with what devices to use, if you have an iPhone, good luck.
Also, the rev-hang got so bad for me with the 5-speed, I ended up trading it in. It started to annoy me and did not fit my lifestyle. I would still keep it at a 5-star though, as that is just personal complaints, not really about the car though.
5/5 stars, Manual transmission

Jash,
SV 4dr Sedan (1.6L 4cyl CVT)
I like the 2021 Versa because the name says it all. This is a versatile vehicle. The handling is awesome, the fuel economy is outstanding. But the thing I love the most has to be the technology built into this compact. This car has the technoloby of higher end cars which for its class makes it, I believe one of the safest and more reliable vehicles in the market. Nissan has a good … product in the versa at a fair price. I would recommend this vehicle, if you're looking for a safe, affordable, fuel efficient car (epecially with the price of gas these days) you will not go wrong with the Nissan Versa.

SPEAKER: So you're thinking of buying a new car this year, but you're tight on funds. And you're not quite sure where to start. Well, don't worry. We've got you covered. These are the top 10 cheapest cars you can buy in 2023. But before I get into it, make sure you subscribe to our channel and head over to visit edmunds.com to find your next car.
Now, keep in mind, these prices do change. So what I'm giving you are all accurate numbers as of this recording. OK, getting right into it at number 10. It's a vehicle that just got a slight overhaul last year. Well, it's arguably still a step behind, say, the Honda Civic and Hyundai Elantra. We think the 2023 Volkswagen Jetta S is a more viable alternative after its recent updates.
Oh, and another plus, at least, if you're a car enthusiast, it also comes with a standard 6-speed manual. Its price isn't as bad either. Its MSRP is a little over $21,700 and includes about $1,000 for destination. Overall, we think this Jetta S is a pleasingly smooth ride, has ample storage in the cabin, and is a pretty fun drive. So it could be a good choice that also won't empty [CLICKING] your pockets.
Moving on to number nine, the 2024 Chevy Trax LS. So here's the deal. The Trax was actually killed off for the 2023 model year. But Chevy had other plans for the plucky little crossover. And boom, a new model is back for 2024. And it looks so much better than it did before.
That said, what's that price looking like? Well, it's going to put you a smidge under the Jetta S at $21,500. And this baby doesn't go on sale until later this spring. I know, bummer. So we haven't tested it yet. And we're still waiting to hear about some of its specs. But you can expect a step up in the interior, some neat tech, and an exterior that could surprise you.
For number eight, it may not be surprising and that this manufacturer has a good range of cost-effective cars in its fleet. At $200 less than our number nine Chevy truck spot, it's the 2023 Kia Soul LX. Its MSRP is a little over $21,000. And that's with destination. So what will you get with that kind of cash?
Well, this boxy shaped soul-- say that 10 times fast-- delivers a roomy passenger cabin and cargo space. We also think it's a fun drive with above-average handling, and a smartly-tuned transmission. Now, despite some minor issues, this small SUV is one of the best out there.
Next up at the number seven spot, it's a vehicle that totally delivers on the most important aspects for a small sedan. It's stylish. It's comfortable. And it's well-stocked with some pretty advanced safety and tech features. I'm talking the 2023 Nissan Sentra S. Price point-wise, it's our last stop in the $21,000 range and at a little over that number. And it comes standard with a continuously variable transmission or CVT.
Now, though, its performance is a bit underwhelming, we overall think the Sentra S is a solid choice. It's bigger than a lot of the other cars on this list. And it's a good choice if safety features and value are your top priorities. Oh, and just to throw a little bonus out there, this one misses our list by just a hair. But if you like Nissan's and you want an SUV, this Nissan Kicks S. Full pun intended there. Seriously, though, the Kicks S Crossover also comes standard with CVT and is almost at the same price point as the Sentra S. So hey, you've got options.
Hyundai's smallest SUV is making our list at number six. It's the 2023 Hyundai Venue SE. And the Venue packs a lot into a very compact package like me. Anyway, what it does best, well, it excels at everyday tasks and is comfortable enough to take on a road trip too. It's a great value and comes with most of the latest safety and technology features. For all of that, you'll walk away paying under $21,000 for it. And that's with the CVT that comes standard. So if you want something more practical and stylish, then a subcompact sedan, it'll be worth your time to check out the venue.
All right, we've reached the halfway point of our list, number five. And this is where it gets really interesting because we're almost to the number one spot of the cheapest car you can buy. All right, now, yes, I'm excited. Now, this sedan at number five is roomy and provides extra traction in bad weather because of its standard all-wheel drive.
It's the 2023 Subaru Impreza Sedan. Now, it comes standard with a 5-speed manual. And it's going to run you around $20,800 or $22,000 with an automatic. So not bad. Now, it's worth noting, there is a new version of the Impreza coming on its way for 2024. It won't be available until this summer. And it will be too expensive to make our list, sorry. Prices will start at 24K. Yeah, not happening.
Well, at number fourish, it's a tie with number five. And you could think of it as a small sedan all grown up. So cute. It's the 2023 Kia Forte LX. Now, we think it has great value for the money with utility that's pretty much above average. So what's it going to cost you? Well, right now, its MSRP is at the same spot as the Impreza coming in at a couple hundred dollars under $21,000.
Now, the LX is comfortable has a healthy list of available features and comes with a generous 10-year warranty. Another plus in our book. Now, Kia is really starting to dominate our list here. At the number three spot, yet, another affordable sedan from the automaker, the 2023 Kia Rio LX.
Now, look, this is a smaller vehicle that will work well for you if you need something decent to get you from A to point B. It's easy to drive and reasonably comfortable. Kia's warranty is great on this one too. The price, well, it's well under $20,000. You'll save quite a bit if you choose this Kia over the Forte. And this Rio LX is pretty significant starting a couple hundred less than 18K, including destination.
To be honest, there's not much personality to this Rio. But hey, if you need something inexpensive and practical, the Rio might serve your needs perfectly. If the Rio doesn't get you all charged up, what about a car that's literally one of the lowest-priced cars you can buy on sale today? I mean, that's why we're here, right?
Sitting at number two on our list, it's the 2023 Mitsubishi Mirage ES hatchback. Now, you might consider it because it has good fuel economy, a long warranty, and, of course, its price. I know. You're dying to know what it is. It's just a few hundred less than the Rio. But savings is savings. Am I right?
Now, it comes in at a little over $17,600. That's nice, right? OK, yeah, it's a bit loud, and it's really slow. But it still comes in at an affordable price. And that's why it's on our list. Number one, it's the cheapest car you can buy right now. It's the 2023 Nissan Versa S. Now, we think it's a well-built small sedan with great fuel economy, plenty of space inside, and enough standard technology and safety features to easily justify its price. And that price is-- I feel like I need a drumroll somewhere.
[DRUMROLL]
Thank you, producers. OK, the cheapest car you can buy on the market right now comes in at 17K. Yes, get excited. With this price, the Versa S comes standard with a 5-speed manual. There's an option for CVT. But the cheapest model with that is a little over $18,000. Well, there you have it. We just did the facts and figures for you. So now, you can go pick what's best for you and your family and hit the road. Now, come on, get. I'm a go too.

NOTE: This video is about the 2023 Nissan Versa, but since the 2024 Nissan Versa is part of the same generation, our earlier analysis still applies.
New cars these days are expensive, to say the least — the average price of a new car is currently standing at almost $50,000 — and trying to find something less expensive can feel like a daunting task. Fortunately, though, there are still a decent number of cheaper new cars available,… and we're here to help you find them.

Compare the Nissan Versa
Nissan Versa vs. Kia Rio
Probably the most meaningful difference between the Versa and the Rio is that the Rio is available as a hatchback. You'll pay more for the utility of five doors, but that may be worth it depending on your needs. The rest of the decision boils down largely to content and utility. Utility is a wash unless you spring for the Rio hatchback. We give the Versa the nod on content since it simply has more standard and available features. But the Rio balances the value equation with a better warranty. If you're shopping in this category, you should drive both of these cars and decide what's more important to you.
Nissan Versa vs. Mitsubishi Mirage
Certainly the allure of the Mirage's hatchback and sedan (G4) body styles coupled with its low price and strong warranty are considerations. We'd quickly guide you to the Versa anyway. It's bigger, drives better, has far more power, comes with many more features, and is built to a higher standard. Even if there were no other reasons to choose the Versa, its 46 (46!) additional horsepower with almost no penalty in fuel economy makes the choice easy.
Nissan Versa vs. Nissan Sentra
If the smallest Nissan car is just too small, maybe the Sentra, which is the second smallest Nissan car, is just right. Sure, the Sentra is more expensive to start than the Versa, but it's also bigger, more powerful, better-optioned, and more rewarding to drive. And it's a relatively inexpensive compact car, starting thousands less than, say, Honda's Civic. The Sentra is refreshed for 2024 and offers an abundance of tech and safety features (360-degree camera, adaptive cruise control and six other driver assist features). It does, however, use the same dated 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine that it's had for ages.
