2023 Nissan Versa Awarded Car and Driver Editors’ Choice

Nissan of Rochester is proud to announce that the Nissan Versa has been named in Car and Driver Editors’ Choice winner list. The honor goes to what the publication considers to be the top vehicles in their respective segments. The award comes only after vehicles have been instrument tested for on-road performance, real-world analysis of fuel economy, and subjective evaluation by their expert staff. The Versa was one of only two sub-compact sedans named.

Revised for 2023

For the 2023 model year, Versa builds on its already impressive customer value with refreshed exterior styling and the addition of newly available features including a class-exclusive wireless smartphone charging pad, a built-in Wi-Fi hotspot, and an 8-inch touchscreen. A new S Plus package enhances the most affordable Versa grade with the addition of Apple CarPlay^® and Android Auto™, 16-inch alloy wheels, and a 60/40 split-folding rear seat.

With its 122 hp engine but without the complexity of a hybrid drivetrain, the Versa still delivers an EPA-estimated 40 mpg on the highway with the automatic transmission. A manual transmission is also available. Carrying all the Nissan family design cues, the Versa can easily be confused with larger sedans in the Nissan lineup.

Having to Do a Lot for a Little

The Sub-Compact Sedan category is the most affordable of Car and Driver’s segmentation. These vehicles have the challenge of passing many scopes of specifications, along with being cost-effective. Vehicles chosen are expected to be reasonably comfortable, provide high-level smartphone interaction, be economical, and have all the expected safety features, among other requirements. With a starting MSRP of $15,730, Versa certainly delivers on the low price, the Versa was also praised as being well-appointed with “a surprising number of driver-assistance features”, along with its impressive highway fuel economy and comfortable ride.

Affordability, feasibility, technology-driven, with comfort and style, stop by Nissan of Rochester and experience the Versa for yourself.
