I bought my 2010 Versa SL Hatchback new in 2010. Options included the premium package and floor mats. The mileage rating on the window sticker indicated 28 city and 34 highway. In several 500 plus mile trips on interstate highways through the mountains of PA it did indeed get 34 mpg's, no more, no less. In city driving it has gotten close to 28 mpg's, sometime a little more, sometimes less. I have discovered that running the a/c or the defroster has a negative effect on gas mileage to the tune of 4 or 5 less miles per gallon in city driving. Very reliable, no issues.
Tire pressure monitoring/front bumper

All of the good things you have read about the Nissan Versa are true. Unfortunately, the front bumper cover is too low to the ground and the clips that hold the cover on are too fragile. Half my clips broke within the first month of driving, the cover bottoms-out exiting driveways of all kinds. The impact causes the too fragile clips that hold it on to the car to break. The cover is now held on with epoxy and aquarium glue. The Nissan Versa also has a multi-year history of faulty tire pressure monitoring systems and this has not been fixed for 2010. Dealerships have no fix for this since the problem apparently is the result of poor engineering and manufacturing of the air valve stems.

Great Basic Car!

This is a great basic, 1st car. It is a cute vehicle for a teen who needs transportation and will eventually want something more. It runs great, gets great mileage and has lots of visibility. It is a basic car - no power door locks, no power windows. It does have power steering, AC, a CD player and an Aux port, so your teen will be able to hook up their phone music. It is a great starter car, and I look forward to eventually buying a more luxury version.

I purchased a used 2010 Nissan Versa 1.8SL with 110K miles on it for my teen daughter & son, they drove it 662 miles over 30 days. On the 30th day the CVT transmission totally went out. Having to pay $3600 for a new transmission, $100 more than we paid for the car. Nissan extended the warranty on these transmissions because of the major issues they had, went from 5 yrs/ 60K miles to 10 yrs/ 120K miles. I contacted Nissan to see if they would honor this warranty because they knew it was a problem, they declined to do so because we missed the timeline (apparently ended in 2019) even though the mileage was still under 120K. I will never buy another Nissan again or vehicle with a CVT transmission. If you’re thinking about it, DON’T, they are garbage. Most expensive mistake I’ve ever made!
Great deal for a practical commuter!

I bought this car for my mother and initially felt bad that I could not afford a nicer car for her. This completely changed once I got a chance to drive it! With the CVT, hatchback, upgraded interior this car is absolutely wonderful. I drove over 600 miles in one day and felt comfortable (I'm 6'4"!) and relaxed. The CVT is extraordinarily smooth and efficient and had no problem with power up mountains. This car is awesome, a great commuter, and I managed an average of 34-35 MPG during the trip!
