About Nissan Versa
The Nissan Versa sedan is available in four trim levels for 2015: S, S Plus, SV, and SL. The Versa Note hatchback offers a fifth trim level, the SR, which lies between the entry-level SV and the top-tier SL.
Standard features on the S model include an auxiliary audio input jack, Bluetooth, and steering wheel-mounted audio controls. The S Plus adds cruise control and a fuel-efficient continuously variable automatic transmission, while the SV adds power windows, door locks, and a USB port. For the majority of buyers, the SV trim is the best option. It boasts a long list of features for a low price.
Trims on the Versa split in two directions from there. The SL adds keyless entry with push-button start, a hands-free text messaging assistance, and an audio system with a 5-inch display and satellite radio to the SV. The hatchback’s SR trim, which builds on the SV, adds a leather-wrapped steering wheel, a rear spoiler, and sport-themed exterior refinements.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration gives both 2015 Versa body designs four out of five stars overall, with three stars in the frontal collision test and four stars in the rollover test. In the side impact test, the sedan received four stars, while the hatchback received five stars.
In four crash tests undertaken by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, the Versa sedan achieved the highest possible rating of Good. The Versa sedan received the lowest rating of Poor from the IIHS for the driver-side small overlap front crash test. The Versa hatchback was not put through its paces.
The Versa, like many other cheap cars, lacks standard driver aid equipment. The sedan includes a rearview camera, while the hatchback has a 360-degree parking camera as an option.
A 109-horsepower four-cylinder engine powers the 2015 Nissan Versa. The standard sedan and hatchback are equipped with a five-speed manual transmission. The base Versa sedan has a four-speed automatic transmission, and the higher trims of the sedan and Versa Note have a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT).
The Versa has adequate power, but it is hesitant to start and labors while climbing steep slopes. It can be rather noisy when equipped with the optional CVT.
