Nissan Versa
Introduced just at the right time, the Versa is Nissan's most popular vehicle in Canada. For 2009, changes are somewhat limited, though we have noticed the temporary withdrawal of the sedan which is now offered at a lower price. The Versa is up against the Honda Fit, Toyota Yaris, and Hyundai Accent, but stands out with a more powerful engine, more comfort, and a larger than the norm interior. With a base price of $13,598,the Versa comes in the 1.8 S and 1.8 SL versions.
