Nissan Versa

With a price that’s affordable for almost everyone shopping for a new car, and an unrivaled number of active-safety features, the 2023 Nissan Versa is a competent and appealing subcompact sedan. It also boasts comfortable seats and a tranquil ride that help make daily commutes a pleasant experience. While the little Nissan isn’t exactly entertaining to drive or zippy, it is very fuel efficient—especially on the highway. The base model costs less than $16,000 with the manual transmission, but you’ll have to step up to one of the two higher trims to get popular features such as Apple CarPlay and Android Auto as well as desirable options such as adaptive cruise control and heated front seats. Still, the 2023 Versa has the attractiveness and refinement to deserve consideration alongside classmates such as the Hyundai Accent.
