2012 nissan versa review this car review is specific to this model, not the actual vehicle for sale. All-new sedan version easy on the wallet. introductionthe 2012 nissan versa lineup features a completely re-engineered version of the versa sedan. The 2012 versa is available in sedan and hatchback variants, but while the versa sedan is all-new, the 2012 versa hatchback carries over on the previous-generation platform. A new hatchback will be introduced as a 2013 model. both versa body styles offer spacious interiors with decent head- and legroom, making them a good choice for larger drivers. In short, the nissan versa is a roomy, practical small car. the 2012 versa sedan is all-new and therefore a better choice than the hatchback. A 5-speed manual transmission is standard on the 2012 versa sedan, while a continuously variable automatic transmission (cvt) is included on higher trim levels. The 2012 versa sedan also gets revised steering and suspension, which makes for more responsive handling. fuel economy is the name of the game for the new 2012 versa sedan. Thanks to weight savings and new engine technology including dual fuel injection, the all-new 2012 versa sedan achieves an epa-estimated 27/36 mpg city/highway and 30 mpg combined with the manual, or an admirable 30/38/33 miles per gallon with the cvt. the 2012 versa hatchback, unlike the sedan, carries over unchanged from 2011. The hatchback is essentially the same body style as the first-generation version that launched as a 2008 model. It rides on the previous-generation platform. On the base versa s hatch, a 6-speed manual transmission comes standard, with an optional 4-speed automatic. The hatchback's extra power and weight dings fuel economy, with an epa rating of 26/31/28 mpg city/highway/combined with the manual and 24/32/27 mpg with the automatic. The upper-level versa sl hatchback comes standard with a cvt, which brings fuel economy up to 28/34/30. the 2012 versa sedan beats the fuel economy of the 2012 hatchback by a wide margin, making the new sedan more economical in the long run than the hatch. An all-new 2013 versa hatchback will introduced in late 2012 or early 2013 as a 2013 model, so look for that. the versa subcompact competes with the honda fit, toyota yaris, ford fiesta, chevrolet sonic, and hyundai accent. Those looking primarily for space might like the versa's larger dimensions, which are larger than those of the fit or yaris. Versa s comes standard with a 5-speed manual transmission 10,990) or an optional cvt 13,120).

The new sedan is slightly more than six inches longer than the old hatchback. The old hatch is nearly an inch taller than the new sedan. The versa is slightly larger than many of the subcompacts, such as the ford fiesta and chevrolet sonic, but it's smaller than the compact-class cars such as the ford focus and chevrolet cruze. the all-new 2012 versa sedan is a friendly, approachable little car, without the aggressive, angry lines that many car companies are hooked on these days. The sedan's styling is clean, fluid and well proportioned. It's short on style and personality, however. in front, the versa sedan uses nissan's new signature sedan grille design and jewel-like headlights. Other exterior features include an available chrome-accented grille, chrome door handles and fog lights. the sedan employs clever design tactics that are not only aesthetic, but also practical. For example, the indented line in the middle of the roofline helps to reduce roof panel vibrations. The hatch has a broad, somewhat v-shaped grille flanked by triangular headlights. The versa sl hatchback, with its front spoiler below the bumper, has a more sporty look. It has an exceptionally short rear overhang, which means very little of the car extends past the rear wheels. In back, the side edges of the tailgate angle sharply inward to clear the cat's-eye taillights. Three large, conventional knobs operate the climate control system. The width and the substantial structure of the front seats makes the versa a good choice among subcompacts for larger drivers. back seat space on sedan and hatchback models is particularly impressive. Even a six-footer shouldn't feel cramped as the rear seat legroom is at or near the top of the class. The versa sedan gives up about half an inch of rear-seat headroom to the hatchback, but that's not all that much. the versa sedan boasts an enormous trunk for a subcompact, with 14. 8 cubic feet of space. The hatchback nets a generous 17. 8 cubic feet of cargo space with the rear seats in place and a maximum of 50. 4 cubic feet with the rear seats folded down. While this is quite large, it falls short of the honda fit and its flat load floor. driving impressionthe nissan versa has modest power and is a solid choice for a-to-b transport. Fuel economy depends on the model and powertrain. On the low end of the scal. Climate Control✔ Anti-lock Brakes✔ Cruise Control✔ CD Player✔ Bluetooth✔ Air Conditioning✔ Alloy Wheels
