2008 Nissan Versa Review

The affordably priced 2008 Nissan Versa compact is available as a 4-door sedan and a 5-door hatchback. Both models are exceptionally spacious for their class and provide ample room in all directions for 4 passengers. Although it is a 5-passenger vehicle, that can get a little tight during long highway rides-which is where the Versa excels. Nissan has raised the quality standards associated with compact cars by providing exceptional fuel economy without sacrificing comfort and convenience. For the 2008 model year, the Versa Sedan SL gains a Sport Options Package that includes a lower body kit.

Both body styles are available as the base model 1.8 S and the more upscale 1.8 SL. The 1.8 S comes with 15-inch steel wheels, power side view mirrors, air conditioning, a tilt steering wheel, a 4 speaker AM/FM/CD stereo and a split-folding rear seat. The Hatchback models also feature a, a rear windshield wiper and a cargo cover. The Versa 1.8 SL replaces the steel wheels with alloy rims, and upgrades the upholstery while adding power windows and locks, cruise control, keyless entry, a height adjustable driver seat; front and rear armrests, lots of useful storage bins and a 6 speaker audio system with MP3 capabilities and an auxiliary jack. Additional options for the 1.8 S include keyless entry and full power accessories while the 1.8 SL offers an optional Rockford Fosgate premium audio system, satellite radio and a sunroof. Option packages are available for both model that include features such as Bluetooth connectivity, remote keyless entry and ignition, and a leather-wrapped steering wheel with audio controls. The SL can be equipped with a Sport Package, which enhances its sporty appearance with a rear spoiler, side sill extensions and an extended front fascia with fog lights.

The Nissan Versa is front wheel drive and comes equipped with a 1.8 liter 4 cylinder engine that is rated for 122 horsepower. The standard transmission is a 6 speed manual, however a 4 speed automatic is optional for the 1.8 S and the 1.8 SL can be equipped with a continuously variable transmission. Gas mileage estimates are appreciated by the frugal, with the Versa coming in at 27 mpg in the city and 33 mpg on the highway.

The 2008 Nissan Versa incorporates advanced safety, technology and performance attributes to deliver a smooth ride. The Versa's high quality materials and abundance of features rival some of the more expensive mid size sedans and helps make this fuel efficient compact a commuters dream car.
