2009 Nissan Versa (continued)
|
|
|
Summary
The Nissan Versa delivers decent performance and has a surprising amount of interior space. It feels bigger than it actually is, which is a good thing. There's lots of room for back-seat riders. The hatch offers big cargo space. The Versa gets excellent fuel economy, particularly on the highway. The CVT works well, though it will feel a bit different at first.
New Car Test Drive contributor John Rettie filed this report from Nashville, Tennessee. John F. Katz added some commentary.
