Buying the 2017 Nissan Versa
No 2017 Nissan Versa is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. For anyone shopping for the 2017 Nissan Versa, here are the facts that matter.
A buyer's checks
Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. NHTSA lists 3 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered.
What the figures tell you
The powertrain here is the 1.6L 4-cylinder with front-wheel drive and an automatic (CVT). It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
Rated at 6.9 L/100 km combined, it needs around 21 litres for a 300 km round trip. In money, 1,000 km costs about $107 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$1,950 a year for 15,000 miles.
Size and space
A car body like this keeps the weight low, so it feels settled on the highway. For luggage, 538 litres means bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.
Who the Versa suits
It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while.
Drive it on your own roads
A test week in the Versa tells you more than any review. If the Versa is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. Rent the Versa first, and buy only if it fits your life.
What it costs to run
The EPA estimates US$1,950 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $10.70 in fuel. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $107 at our price setting.
Picking a year and a trim
Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first.
Ask us
Send a request to rent the model first, or ask us what we can do.
Rent it for a week before you buy
A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a 2017 Nissan Versa from us first.

Tell us your budget and when you want to buy; we look for a 2017 Nissan Versa for you and reply within one business day.
