 2014 Nissan Versa Review, Specs, Photo. - Meanwhile some rumors told that 2014 Nissan Versa release date will be in late this year. You can get in touch with certified traders of the Nissan to discover out more about the 2014 Nissan Versa price. There is no purpose why you should be eventually missed when it comes to the high-class and relaxation that comes with Nissan vehicles. This car is made in a way that they will provide you even more than you predicted. We promise that we will update soon after Nissan announces 2014 Nissan Versa release date.

Exterior
Picture an economy car in your mind, and you’ll likely visualize something akin to the 2014 Nissan Versa. This budget sedan has conservative looks, with few elements that stand out. Among those that do are its wide and shapely grille and the rear spoiler that helps spruce up the look of models equipped with the CVT automatic transmission. Higher-trim SV and SL models are distinguished by chrome highlights. Wheels are 15- or 16-inch, and steel or aluminum-alloy, depending on the trim and option package.

Interior
The front seats are fine for short hops, but comfort wanes on longer drives. Taller drivers might find it hard to achieve a comfortable position due to the lack of a telescoping steering wheel. The quality of the interior materials is low, even for the subcompact segment, but gauges and controls are at least well placed and intuitive. The availability of desirable features such as keyless ignition/entry and a rearview camera is a nice touch for a car with a sub-$20,000 sticker price.

Features and Safety
Safety on 2014 Nissan Versa comes from six standard airbags, tire pressure monitoring, anti-lock brakes with panic assist, front seat belt pretensioners, side impact beams in all doors and electronic stability/traction control.

Powertrain :
The front-wheel-drive 2014 Nissan Versa is powered by a 1.6-liter four-cylinder that produces 109 horsepower and 107 pound-feet of torque. A five-speed manual transmission is standard on the S, and a four-speed automatic is optional. A CVT is standard on all other Versas.

Engine
Both the Note and the sedan are based on the same new B-segment architecture that's fresher but designed to remain more compact that the outgoing Versa's underpinnings. There's not a lot to grab headlines – the 1.6-liter, 109 horsepower, 107 lb-ft. of torque four-cylinder makes use of continuously variable valve timing to net 31/40 mpg with the optional CVT. Base Versa Notes will include a five-speed manual gearbox.

Helping to achieve such numbers are improvements in aerodynamics, which now yield a 0.298 drag coefficient, which the brand is quick to say is lower than many sports cars. Such tricks like a radically swept-back windshield, shorter overhangs, Nissan’s first active grille shutters and under-body deflectors all play a part in cheating the effects of wind on fuel consumption.

Inside, the cabin is relatively frill-free - and in this case that’s good. Simplified controls and buttons adorn the hard-plastic dashboard, with the most complications coming from how to set the clock on the optional navigation screen’s 5.8-inch display monitor. One feature that is usually found in higher line vehicles that still managed to find its way into the Note is the pushbutton starter.

Drive time
The Versa Note’s 1.6-liter proved stout at slow speeds but still required extra effort to get into the groove. Although this is the world’s first CVT with a sub-planetary gear, the engine managed to get past the rather tall gearing (in place for increased fuel economy) but not without letting us know it was working its behind off to do so.

In the twisties, we did feel a touch of torque steer present itself, which means you might need to keep both hands on the wheels. But with such limited power on tap, the Versa Note is easy to control.

The ride was smooth but softly sprung, which allowed it to absorb the rough roads found around fiscally-challenged Southern California. Credit the simple MacPherson strut/torsion beam suspension setup. On the other hand, we were pleasantly surprised by the relatively quiet ride that came (or didn’t come) from the Note. Thanks to countermeasures including double-sealed doors, acoustic windshields and Thinsulate material throughout, the overall package managed to keep the interior relatively quiet.

2014 Nissan Versa Note base price $13,990.
