Nissan Versa 
Nissan is introducing an all-new version of its Versa sedan, while the hatchback remains unchanged. With a competitive starting price of under $12,000, the sedan is equipped with a 1.6L 4-cylinder engine and either a 5-speed manual transmission or a CVT. Meanwhile, the hatchback keeps its 1.8L engine and 6-speed manual gearbox, though automatic and CVT transmissions are also available.
Pros
- The most affordable car on the market – for now
- More elegant exterior
- One of the largest trunks in the category
- The CVT suits the low-output engine
Cons
- Soundproofing just OK (preproduction vehicles)
- Rear bench no longer folds down (base trim)
- Still waiting for the hatchback
- Interior inspired from last decade's trends
