The Most Frugal Car in America 2023 Nissan Versa In-Person First Look

Rating: 4.5; Vote: 2
The 2023 Versa proves that Nissan is still committed to giving Americans solid options for under 20, 000 that aren't crossovers or hatchbacks. How committed? Cheapest car in America committed. That's right, for 2023 the Versa undercuts even the Mitsubishi Mirage to once again be the least expensive set of new wheels with a factory warranty. Oh, and you also get 40 MPG on the highway. discerningmind: As an SUV hater, I'm just glad that Nissan continues making cars. While I'm leery of Nissan's because of weak transmissions and other issues, I have to say that they've managed to hang in there and not fold. I'd include the Versa on my shopping list were I looking for a new car. But on the other hand, the Chevy Spark is in the same price field and by-and-large they're known to be trouble free.

Yep Every Time someone does a Nissan Video. CVT this and that. I dont own a Nissan but have had 2 Altimas with CVTs and ZERO issues with mines & they had very high miles when i traded.
The Current Gen Nissans have not had as many Problems with the CVT as the prior and the Altima esp. with CVT been out 3 years hitting 4 with few documented issues. You guys hitting on the CVT talking about Long time ago gens not this one.

Alex, while I'm glad Nissan is making the Versa, Nissan is being disingenuous by presenting this as cheap. Only the base S version with a manual is well under 20k. Most buyers will end up paying close to 20K for a SV automatic model. The SR model shown in your video is over 21k. BTW, the 2023 Corolla LE gets 41 mpg on the highway.

would love to see alex do a nissan versa vs kia rio vs mitsubishi mirage alex on autos direct comparison. alex says he rarely ever mentions reliability which is interesting because he says it is fairly reliable despite versa s being well documented to have a cvt in that gives up at 60, 000miles
reply

Its great to know the car is very cheap but with the kind of power it produces, it can't get out of it's own way with just driver let alone with 3 or 4 people in the car. I rather have a hybrid and have fuel eco and power to get onto busy roads/highways and even in snowy conditions.
reply

Do the rear seats fold down and can it fit a 60cm road bike? Does it have cruise control and/or radar? Because now that android auto/apple carplay is a thing, I can't see why you'd get anything else. There's nothing 30k better than this. Used cars are a joke these days.

Interestingly, the last gen Versa's trunk at 17 cu ft. was larger than the Sentra's, Altima's, and Maxima's. Go figure. But I think the Sentra strikes the right balance as far as efficiency, interior look and feel, and proportions are concerned.
reply

The argument used to be, this or 4-5 year old Toyota or Honda. Now the argument is, this or a 10 year old Toyota or Honda. That makes the Versa much more compelling. And if you don t drive it like and idiot, you ll never notice the CVT.
reply

This is a sedan.
Not really an excuse to not have rear headroom. You should not need a crossover unless you need to carry bulky cargo that won t fit in a trunk.
Coupes are for those who don t need room in the back.

reply

The Mitsubishi Mirage doesn't have an excuse anymore as to why it has just 78hp and looks like a 5000 car on the inside. This is miles better, and it's cheaper than the Mirage. I wonder why that car still exists anyway.
reply

I had the versa back in 2008 was a very good car, I sold around 2012, then I rent a versa in 2019 and i was so disappointed with the 2018 model. Very slow, ugly and the cvt pathetic! I hope the new one is better
reply

Versa was my first car. It runs 14 years for now and doesn t give us any trouble. It was unbelievable comfortable when compared to Corolla and civic, with an unbeatable price! It is a very nice city car.
reply

That low price is for the manual transmission only base model with fixed rear seats (no way to extend trunk and carry long items, for most buyers, who want an automatic, this is poor value.
reply

What I don't get is how camrys and accords can give you 40mpg on the highway with 200hp and 192hp respectively, but then a much smaller car with a much smaller engine (122hp) gives the same 40mpg.
reply

I don't have anything bad to say about Nissan except for their one glaring problem. Those horrible CVTs. I don't care about how they drive, it's just long-term reliability that concerns me.
