Honestly, I was test driving these with a friend of mine from work and we were racing around Nashville and it was a blast. Not fast, but fun like a go cart - incredible gas mileage no matter how you’re flooring it and kind of fun handling. Also, it’s good looming and feature packed. For the price, it’s great.
Just a quick rant... but I really do get now why some reviewers (like all 2 of them) go against the grain and talk about why regular cars need not behave like a sports car. I'm 37 now, and have driven everything from BMWs to VW Golf R's to Subaru STI's. Few things are as rewarding as a finely tuned chassis, feel-some steering, and power-a-plenty EXCEPT when you've worked 8-9 hours stairing at a computer screen, and getting up in the years. There's something to be said for cars that isolate and cosset you when all you want is relaxation and quiet. Car reviews should take the position of the car's intended use as opposed to always unfairly comparing them to a Ferrari or something. I'm very much an enthusiast, and on weekends etc I love nothing more than carving up a mountain road, but that being the case I'd simply get a weekend toy for that, because there's no way this type of commuter car will be thrilling to drive, even if it had great steering and handling. 120hp and a CVT assures that, anyway
damieg82 Totally age with this statement! As an avid review watcher and someone who works at an automaker, it ticks me off when reviewers don’t understand the intended use of the vehicle and that they are quite possibly not the target customer ha
Hey, well said ! It's not a Ferrari so why do most (not all) car reviewers compare them to performance vehicles? They're not designed for that. I love it when they point out a feature common 'in it's class' but proceed to rag on them for lackluster handling and (lol) 0-60 times. Who cares? I have an econobox grocery-getter (2015 Versa SV) that is just what I wanted it for...the closest thing to a battery car minus the battery. 42MPG avg. and no expensive, complicated electrical system. Simple. And I LOVE that. I also have a car that I enjoy taking out on nice days and yes it is satisfying to zoom and twist around the curves since it was built with handling in mind, but I'm more of the age now where I just want my vehicle to stay out of a dealer's repair shop and get me there while throwing the least amount of $$ at the money-vacuuming-out-of-your-wallet auto industry. If the performance car craps out, I'd be just as happy with a 2020 Versa or similar. I no longer care what the guy next to me at the red light thinks of my ride.
I drove a FIAT 500 Abarth for almost 7 years, using it for delivery with Amazon the last year and a half I had it (rear ended and totalled by a Wrangler). I now drive the much hated cousin to the Versa, the Mirage G4, cvt even. And you know what? I have almost as much fun in my G4 as I did in my Abarth. My G4 is so easy to live with too, amazing MPG, and I've done 19,000 problems free miles since I got it in August of 2019. If I'd listened to the reviews and comparisons, I'd have never bought it. But I liked it enough anyways, and got a smoking deal. And now I defend the G4, against unwarranted bashing and comparisons. And honestly, I just think the act of driving itself is fun, no matter what I'm driving!
People who default to 'Nissan cvt is crap' I think are parroting what they hear on another RUclips channel. I have a '15 Versa with zero problems at almost 50K and 42mpg average. Simple. I love that. Nissan is no worse than Toyota, or any other, pick one. They ALL need to be prodded with a class-action suit to address a problem. I had a Highlander, it was crap and dealers were worse. I have a Versa and I love it, no problems. If you get a good one of.....whatever it is, be nice to it and keep it.
Drove an orange SR yesterday and loved it. Going to buy one. Never thought I would actually want an orange car, but that Monarch Orange is downright gorgeous. I currently have a Mirage G4 W/CVT. I've put 19,000 hard and trouble free miles on the car since I got it in August of 2019. Go on the forums, and you find the CVT issues, at least for the Mirage, are blown out of proportion. I love my G4, and the size of the car, but the driving position is not good for my frame. And the Versa does. Still wowed by it. :)
AGREED!!!! Every manufacturer should be using that!!! Its really a great feature. But I don't think even ppl who drive newer models know about it!!! Lol
*You da man!* Great review. Too bad about the driving position. Otherwise, the design looks nice for the money, especially the steering wheel and dashboard design. Looking forward to your 2020 Hyundai Sonata review. That car looks sweet.
i just bought one yesterday in blue. all eyes were looking at it too. its a sweet little car. Nissan did good on it. You get so much for what you pay for. The finance guy cut a me a break and gave me the 100k mile extended warranty for just 1 dollar more a month cuz i was his last guy of the evening :)
Sounds like way to many people watch Scotty Kilmer and take his opinion for the gospel truth. I have a 2015 versa with a 5 speed manual and have had no mechanical issues. I live in Ohio and have no rust issues with this vehicle. The Honda civic type r may be a better car but for $35,000 dollars it better be. I can replace a lot of head gaskets for the $20,000 price difference, but I doubt this vehicle will have any serious issues if taken care of. If a vehicle is neglected, beat, and never washed even the best Toyota will become an unreliable vehicle. People's opinions are helpful but you have to formulate your own opinion based on your personal experience, what you want, what you need and your vehicle budget. Don't run out and buy a Ford F-350 just because some guy says that it's the perfect vehicle and everything else on the road is junk. If you have a 500 acre ranch in Texas the F-350 may be your perfect vehicle, but if you live in Ohio and own a half acre of land and work 10 miles from where you live the Nissan versa or something similar may be your perfect vehicle.
I like basic transportation. I have a 2015 versa with a 5 speed, roll down windows and regular radio/ CD player. I like the big trunk. You really don't need a Bentley to drive back and forth to work. A fuel economy of 30+ is nice. The money you save on up front cost and gas over 5-10 years will save you enough money to remodel your house and pay cash for a 2 or 3 year old versa with around 30,000 miles that will last you another 10 years. A vehicle is typically a depreciating asset. If you spend $40,000 on a vehicle that gets 15mpg and drive 10,000 miles per year for 10 years you now have a vehicle that is worth $7,500 and has cost you $2,000 per year in gas plus tires, brakes and regular maintenance items cost more. So you have lost around $55,000 to $60,000 over the course of 10 years. Now if you take a $15,000 car that gets an average of 32 mpg on a 10,000 mile year times 10 years your car may be worth $2,500, and you'll spend around $900 per year in gas, tires and regular maintenance items will be cheaper, you'll lose $12,500 to depreciation, spend around $12,000 to $13,000 on gas and maintenance which would be around $25,000 to $26,000 over 10 years which would save you roughly $30,000 over owning the $40,000 vehicle that gets an average of 15mpg.
Yes they are fine. Your fourth gear gets you a 1:1 and fifth gear puts you in OD, typically somewhere in the .70:1 to .80:1 range. I get 38-40 mpg highway with the 5 speed and 26-28 mpg around town. You really don't need more than a 5 speed for a small car. If they put any more gears in these things then they'll have to put an air compressor on the engine to run the air splitter on the downsized version of the eaton/fuller 18 speed, then people would skip gears anyhow.
If Nissan drops their crappy Jatco CVT out of all their vehicles and fixes their corruption issues, then they'll be attractive to me. Until then, boooo
I am yet to be convinced that a CVT can be reliable, still need more proof,I need to see one reach at least 250 thousand miles then I would get one ,until then I will keep my car for as long as I possibly can.
My wife has 2006 murano with 223k miles. The transmission was shuddering really bad a couple years ago. Mechanics told her it was going out and that it was a "sealed transmission". I found the drain plug bought some genuine nissan cvt fluid on Amazon. A hundred dollars and 50k miles later transmission has been running like new ever since.
I used to own a nissan versa hatchback. While it was a decent car for college the cheap plastic interior rattle like mad every time you drive over a bump and the infamous clunking noise when you turn left or right. NIssan knows the poor design of the intermediate steering shaft, they refused to recalled it. I had to have it replaced 4 times but only find out that it work for about 4-6 months before the clunking make a come back. Eventually I trade it in and got a Hyundai Sonata and never look back. It is one of those case you get what you pay for.
I test drive several in the segment and now own a Versa (Manual) my opinion about handling is the opposite of this reviewer. Handling feels great IMO. Motor power is it's downside but the manual shift makes it feel better and also it gets rid of the cvt transmission noise.
@@jrwaters943 yet Google doesnt know any of my text messages or what's on my phone. The goverment loves Android users not too mention being an actual product. You dont own an Android phone, Google owns you. Enjoy having nothing private about you. Google is everyones overlord.
I want the middle level versa from 2020 to 2021 model so it has Android auto and I'm sure it'll save me more gas then any of the three cars I've had combined
I purchased a brand new versa in 2015 and was told that the car would do up to 40 mpg hwy. I travel hwy to work and back everyday and drive very humbly! i never hit over 29 mpg which was a big let down!! over all i liked the car! but i question the 40 mpg quote!
@Mike P i wish that was true mike..but no..Thats thw reason i bought it! And they swore up and down it should get 40 hwy... But no. Im thinking ill get the reguler one next..the 5 speed stick shift. Will prob be better.
@@NOFATCHICK1 Guaranteed, the entire muffler system will need to be replaced in less than 6 years, if you're in the rust belt. Super annoying and expensive. And that CVT is still a big issue (And that's mostly a big issue in the warmer areas) Perhaps for a discounted price it's worth it, but if you're looking for a car that will not have these issue i'd look elsewhere.
@@lowspeed2000 I agree completely with the CVT, however that's the only major issue IMO. In today's date where manufacturers are moving away from sedans in favor for SUV's it's nice to see that Nissan still offers a fairly competitive car in the segment
Going to have to disagree with the use of boxes as a measurement of real world cargo practicality. Tribbles, yes the ones on Amazon that vibrate & make the classic Tribble sound would have been far more appropriate.
@@tacocruiser4238 yes, plenty of used cars that are made better then a piece of trash Nissan. Thats why they sell it for cheap. They know their users will buy a new one next year to replace this one.
@@trancross7040 A little joke there. Nissan and Honda need to go back to the 90s when they both made great cars but for now they're happy producing hideous cars and SUVs with CVT transmissions.
@@MLife1972man I agree 100%. They're both trying to keep up with the latest trend instead of being unique & starting new trends. They can miss me with that cvt crap!
After you drive a few cars you begin to be able to tell the difference between the quality builds . Some people see a car as just transportation while a vast majority sees it as an experience. I personally need an enjoyable experience when looking at a car that i will be in an average of 15 hours a week, budget or not. He gave the good and the bad. Now you decide if the bad is something you can live with on your investment
yaris and corolla about the same in reliability. yaris overall cheaper in operation. note i am talking about the real toyota yaris and not the yaris ia, i.e. which is the mazda 2 badge-engineered to be a toyota. that car is not at toyota level of reliability.
A 5 speed... in a 2019 car!? Cant even get a 6th gear, the yaris comes with like 7 gear man..... and if you go with the cvt its gonna blow up on you before you hit 70k (my uncles 2018 sentra cvt blew up at 62k)
The 5 speed is reliable. My 5 speed gets 38-40 mpg highway even though they only rate it at 35-36 mpg. Dividing the miles driven by the gallons used gives you an honest figure. The CVT may get a few mpg better around town but replacing a $3,000 CVT every 60,000 miles cancels that out. The biggest problem you will have with the 5 speed is having to replace a clutch every 150,000 miles or so. You may have $300-$400 in parts and about the same in labor. This is 1/4 of the cost of replacing a cvt.
Very disappointing that America is not in the car industry anymore with compact cars mid size cars an Xbox is very poor quality these days not the same that it used to be during original Xbox and 360 and the days of zenith another disappointment when America got out of the TV industry
When I got my first car I used confidentcarbuyer course given to me by my dad, so was lucky. There are many videos out there though, but this was just compact and free too
Great review until you mentioned the Plymouth Breeze. Now I have to deal with past trauma from Breeze ownership all over again. I'll send you the therapy bill?

I think the Versa look much better than before. Look at the tail lamps. They look great.
New Versa is aerodynamically quiet.
I just bought an orange Versa SR and I absolutely love it. It’s a great car.

How is your versa sr going so far? Any issues? I ask because I am interested in getting one.
This is a big improvement to it’s previous generations.
Who the hell spends $20,000 in apps per year? LMFAO
We own a Maxima and a Versa. I really like the Versa to bounce around town.
V-Motion grill looks fantastic and very cohesive to the Nissan lineup. Great job Nissan.
I don't see why chair mounted arm rests are seen as bad? How often is a center console arm rest actually comfortable.
Well written review. Funny and informative. Good job my friend.
I absolutely love the easy fill tires on Nissans, it's such an underrated feature.
AGREED!!!! Every manufacturer should be using that!!! Its really a great feature. But I don't think even ppl who drive newer models know about it!!! Lol
I didn’t know about it until I was filling in the air on the tires and I heard the car making a beep sound 😂
It's a huge factor in my decision. That and the upgraded screen with the tire pressure showing. I'm horrible with that stuff, so this would help a lot
I just bought it ❤❤❤
Me too ! I got the manual trans !!
They took their time with the new design THANK GOD

@@markc5677 I guess I was thinking of the Micra hatchback, but the Kicks is pretty much tailored to North American's SUV taste ...

I like basic transportation. I have a 2015 versa with a 5 speed, roll down windows and regular radio/ CD player. I like the big trunk. You really don't need a Bentley to drive back and forth to work. A fuel economy of 30+ is nice.

Awesome review!
I rented last gen model on my trip last year and I couldn’t get the thing below 33mpg!!
True. MPGs were understated I think. I have a '15 Versa SV and average 42mpg. Average. That's battery territory. No problems either yet.
Nice car am hoping mine will last at least 100k and ill be happy since i dont put many miles on it.
A good old 5 speed manual? That's almost tempting for a cheap runabout. Might even be a bit of fun.

@@NOFATCHICK1 that's an extremely expensive issue. Only thing more expensive is the engine.
Hatchback would boost its appeal 10x
There is the new Micra btw.
The reviewed spec will be considered excellent in my country ...
Including discounts you can get a much better Hyundai Elantra for the same $.
looks like my nissan sentra
Going to have to disagree with the use of boxes as a measurement of real world cargo practicality. Tribbles, yes the ones on Amazon that vibrate & make the classic Tribble sound would have been far more appropriate.
My first question is why the crap does it look like a Sentra I have a 2015 Versa and the older ones have that arm raise I’ve only used it a few times
Sorry about how GoT ended, homie.
Too soon….still
I'll say NO to this VERSA or to other current NISSAN vehicles out there, except to the NISSAN GTR.....
Who cares?
What I don't understand is why their design outside looks better in the front vs the Corolla or Yaris which look like fish.
Nice steering wheel.
Probably a really good car in the first 5 years. After 90k miles or so, it will fall apart. It's like every other Nissan cars ever
But that's ok because you aren't paying much for it.
@@tacocruiser4238 you can get better quality for the same price.
@@TheSjuris for under $15,000?
@@tacocruiser4238 yes, plenty of used cars that are made better then a piece of trash Nissan. Thats why they sell it for cheap. They know their users will buy a new one next year to replace this one.
Remember when Nissan made good shit 25 years ago
No
All throughout the 89s & 90s.
@@trancross7040 A little joke there. Nissan and Honda need to go back to the 90s when they both made great cars but for now they're happy producing hideous cars and SUVs with CVT transmissions.
@@MLife1972man I agree 100%. They're both trying to keep up with the latest trend instead of being unique & starting new trends. They can miss me with that cvt crap!
Very good car.
This dude complaint alot about that car. It's a budget car. So I'm not sure what he expect
After you drive a few cars you begin to be able to tell the difference between the quality builds . Some people see a car as just transportation while a vast majority sees it as an experience. I personally need an enjoyable experience when looking at a car that i will be in an average of 15 hours a week, budget or not. He gave the good and the bad. Now you decide if the bad is something you can live with on your investment
Where's Sammi?
Question is can you wear a cowboy hat in it to look cool as heck 👀
Exterior styling complaints ? Really ??! Not all cars can look like an Aston Martin
Aston Martin barely looks like Aston Martin these days, 🤷🏽♂️ can’t seem to win
I love Nissan compare to Toyota and Honda...
Canada Eh Nissan is the worst rated Japanese car company in all categories. It’s the poor mans car.
@@ELPJM09 its ok im poor im not rich like you...Really worst car?funny do you know Datsun car? Google it.
The Nissan CVT transmission is poorly built trash
Great, it you can get a Yaris for 15k or even better, a corolla for 19k. Which I think will be more reliable.
yaris and corolla about the same in reliability. yaris overall cheaper in operation. note i am talking about the real toyota yaris and not the yaris ia, i.e. which is the mazda 2 badge-engineered to be a toyota. that car is not at toyota level of reliability.
More like this!
At least they didn't copy the TP test...
That NEW Plymouth Breeze you've been hearing about huh??🤣🤣🤣
A 5 speed... in a 2019 car!? Cant even get a 6th gear, the yaris comes with like 7 gear man..... and if you go with the cvt its gonna blow up on you before you hit 70k (my uncles 2018 sentra cvt blew up at 62k)
Aah yes the Mazda Yaris.
Rear drums :/
Ehhh I owned a 2014 SL AWD Rogue. I didn't like it nor hate it. It did do its job deploying airbags. I was going 55mph and a dumbass ran a stop sign.
Not till they get rid of their crappy jatco cvts
The 5 speed is reliable. My 5 speed gets 38-40 mpg highway even though they only rate it at 35-36 mpg. Dividing the miles driven by the gallons used gives you an honest figure. The CVT may get a few mpg better around town but replacing a $3,000 CVT every 60,000 miles cancels that out. The biggest problem you will have with the 5 speed is having to replace a clutch every 150,000 miles or so. You may have $300-$400 in parts and about the same in labor. This is 1/4 of the cost of replacing a cvt.
Cool..
Very disappointing that America is not in the car industry anymore with compact cars mid size cars an Xbox is very poor quality these days not the same that it used to be during original Xbox and 360 and the days of zenith another disappointment when America got out of the TV industry
I think there are many aspects to consider when buying a used car. If it is not done he must suffer
When I got my first car I used confidentcarbuyer course given to me by my dad, so was lucky. There are many videos out there though,
but this was just compact and free too
Ok thanks I will check it...
I would never buy this trash car, but I always watch Craig's reviews for the comedy !
Can you manufacture a car? U can hate but still there are many people who love Nissan including me for ur information
@@grantfynn6241 i think you love spending extra for repairs for a Nissan ;)
I don't think u own a car because every car definitely will need a repair once you drive it
@@grantfynn6241 uuu that's cold 🤣
Great review until you mentioned the Plymouth Breeze. Now I have to deal with past trauma from Breeze ownership all over again. I'll send you the therapy bill?
Dude, America it's a continent...
