Performance and handling

The 4 trims are offered with a single engine but varying transmission options, responsible for differences in the power output as well as fuel efficiency.

Review of Interior and Exterior Looks and Features of the 2016 Nissan Versa

June 8, 2016 By Admin

Posted in General, Uncategorized

The 2016 Nissan Versa is vying for attention in the highly competitive subcompact space with the likes of the Hyundai Accent, Kia Rio, Chevrolet Sonic and Ford Fiesta to go against. The advantage that the Versa holds over all of them is that it provides a level of value and features that is virtually impossible to beat.

Interior looks and features

What really draws you to this Nissan offering is its bucket loads of space inside the cabin, be it the front or the rear or the cargo. This is probably the only subcompact sedan where a 6-foot tall person can sit without his head touching the headline of the car confidently. The front seats are comfortable for city rides and offer amenities to be a realistic vehicle for everyday use for a driver and several passengers.

The dash is easy to read. There is the standard trip meter, the analogue tachometer and speedometer, etc. There is a large glove box and also 3-knob climate control. The audio display and controls are simple yet practical and provide the expected features for a modern vehicle.

Exterior

The Versa has an appealing design, particularly considering its very reasonable sale price. You get 15inch steel wheels on the base model which gets upgraded to 15inch aluminum alloy on SV and 16inch alloy on SL. The design keeps up with modern trends and focus has been kept on comfort rather than looks or breakneck speed. The car gets all season tires and there are options like rear trunk spoiler, splash guards and accented chrome trunk that you can choose from. The side panels however, get character lines, which Nissan has named “squash lines”.

Nissan’s Impressive Autonomous Driving Technology Tested in Tokyo

October 28, 2015 By Admin

Posted in General, Uncategorized

Earlier this week, before the start of the Tokyo Motor Show, Nissan took its Intelligent Driving prototype out on the streets of Tokyo, during one of the busiest times of the day – to see what this car can really do. Early morning commuting in Tokyo is considered one of the worst times to drive, which is why Nissan thought it would be the perfect scenario testing. The car handled itself with ease; in fact, the Nissan Engineer, Tetsuya Lijima, only had to take control of the vehicle one time – when they were at an intersection, turning left and there were no lines in the road for the car to follow. “This is not perfect. The driver must be prepared and we must keep the driver involved.” Lijima believes that the technology’s biggest obstacle to overcome will be driver complacency. It is easy for the driver to forget that he is still responsible for maneuvering the vehicle. Lijima admits that it is easy for the driver to become complacent. However, the technology’s most impressive feature is its ability to react smoothly and quickly when being cut off. Automotive News said: “The braking was controlled and precise rather than panicked. The car functioned like an experienced driver.”
