2018 Nissan Versa Note review

1. Tailor-made engine for the city 

The driving experience that the 2018 Nissan Versa Note offers is exactly what you would expect from a subcompact hatchback. It’s a nimble and agile car, that’s ideal for crowded streets and parking garages. With a 109-hp 107-lb-ft, 1.6L four-cylinder engine, it has just the right power for your daily commute and weekend errands. 

2. Doesn’t sip too much gas 

Mileage is always a factor to consider when talking about a commuter car. This is where the 2018 Nissan Versa Note truly delivers. It’s a prudent choice, returning great mileage thanks to its small size and aerodynamic shape. It gets an EPA-estimated 30 mpg combined when powered by the standard 1.6L four-cylinder engine.

3. Ample room for cargo 

On top of being a great choice for economy-minded commuters, the 2018 Nissan Versa Note is also a fitting option for families that need some room for cargo. Despite being small and compact, it has a lot to offer in terms of utility and cargo carrying, in particular. The trunk of the 2018 Nissan Versa Note has 18.8 cu-ft of space, and you get as much as 38.3 cu-ft of cargo capacity with the rear seats folded. That’s plenty of room for storage, enough to fit more than a few grocery bags, your kids’ sporting equipment, or a couple of suitcases for a family road trip. 

4. Interior focused on simplicity and functionality 

The interior of the 2018 Nissan Versa Note is a continuation of the simplicity that’s woven into its exterior and under the hood. It’s a cozy environment that doesn’t try too hard but rather provides the basic features that you need for a productive trip. There are a couple of useful amenities that come standard, including Bluetooth® phone connectivity and a four-speaker audio system, as well as cloth upholstery, power mirrors, and air conditioning. 

5. Passenger comfort 

In addition to being cozy and offering a quiet ride, the cabin of the 2018 Nissan Versa Note is also spacious enough. Passenger comfort is a guarantee, with wide and supportive seats and a second row that looks more like that of a midsize sedan. Front-row passengers get 40.8 inches of head- and 41.3 inches of legroom, respectively. Headroom for second-row passengers measures 38 inches, with 38.3 inches of legroom.
