It’s kind of refreshing to see a car like this. It’s basic transportation that was designed as basic transportation but the designers obviously put effort into giving it a personality and they spent some money in places where it counts.

@Tsuter1978 Ай бұрын

Exactly my thoughts. Simple to maintain and repair. No added rear drive and all the weight and components that go with it.

@davidglad Ай бұрын

That is my impression of the Versa manual too from yt reviews, namely relatively inexpensive reliable transport and likely easy maintenance. Although other vehicles likely being twice the price or more, as long as it lasts at least half as long (likely much longer) it's a huge win. Assuming you like what you get

Yep, basic transport. It has a strengthened engine to take the extra power(for a small engine) which will make it cheap to fix when the 1st buyer is done with it.

Same thing happened with cars that’s happened with housing. People wanted as big as possible with as many features as possible and the manufacturers saw $$$. All of my friends have suvs and trucks, which is bizarre cause many are anti having a family but want these large vehicles. And for whatever reason the wealthy became drawn to $80k trucks. Since sedan sales are up for pretty much every major manufacturer I think it’s a miss for the Big 3 to not at least have one.

These things are selling like crazy compared to the old Trax; I've started to see a bunch of them around and I think they're a nice looking small car. I also think there's still a huge market for people looking for a new car that starts at 20k and doesn't look like an absolute turd (Ford EcoSport!), but still offers a lot of features if not world class performance. A nice value in a pretty package. My only hesitation might be to the longevity of the 1.2, I think owners would be wise to strongly adhere to a prompt and timely oil change interval that's more frequent than what the manual or car says.

Great review. Thanks. A few commenters mentioned that the engine has the timing belt inside the oil compartment and so is soaked in oil. This design can be a problem. Would love to hear your view on this design.

that underside makes for a LOT of drag and so does the wheel choice. And honestly for this size of car they should have used the 1.3 liter which with the Trailblazer gets noticeably better fuel economy than the 1.2.

That looks so well made. I'm really impressed. I have the same engine in my Peugeot 408. I love it. Just stick to the oil changes and only get them done at your dealer so you get the quality oil and filter and replace the wet belt before its too late. Give it a fresh oil and filter at 1000 miles to be on the safe side.
