2013 Nissan Versa Hatchback and sedan

2013 Nissan Versa Press Kit: At a Glance


The second-generation Nissan Versa Sedan, introduced just last year, is designed to redefine entry-level car value. It combines a sophisticated exterior design, well-appointed interior and exceptional room for five adults - including more rear legroom than many mid-size sedans.


Key enhancements for the 2013 model year are led by the addition of a new Versa Sedan 1.6 S AT model with 4-speed automatic transmission and an increase in fuel economy to 40 miles per gallon Highway (from 38 mpg) for all CVT-equipped models (S Plus CVT, SV, SL). Helping to achieve the two extra miles per gallon are new low-rolling resistance tires, new air intake guide, new rear spoiler and rear wheel and underbody air deflectors.

Other changes for 2013 include the addition of the previous Cruise Control Package content to the Versa Sedan S CVT model, which is now renamed the Versa Sedan S Plus CVT; the SV Convenience Package adds a 60/40-split rear seat; the SL Tech Package adds RearView Monitor; CVT-equipped models add a standard rear spoiler; SV models add cloth door trim, chrome interior door handles, driver's seat armrest and painted shift knob; SL models add Intelligent Key, remote key fob trunk release and driver's seat armrest; and S models add a standard trunk light. Sunvisor extensions are added to all models.

The 2013 Nissan Versa Sedan is built on Nissan's front-wheel drive global "V" platform, which utilizes nearly 20 percent fewer platform components and weighs around 150 pounds less than the previous generation "B" platform.

The standard second-generation 1.6-liter HR16DE 4-cylinder engine includes a range of cutting-edge technologies, such a dual fuel injector system that allows a wider injection of fuel, with the smaller nozzles delivering a finer spray (approximately 57 percent finer than the previous generation single injector design's particle size) to help achieve more complete combustion.  The engine also utilizes a twin Continuously Variable Timing Control (CVTC) system mounted on both intake and exhaust ports (conventionally mounted only on the intake port), similar to the system used on the flagship Nissan Maxima. The engine is rated at 109 horsepower and 107 lb-ft of torque.

The available next-generation Xtronic CVT transmission utilizes an auxiliary gearbox using planetary gearing, helping enhance efficiency.  It also features a transmission ratio of 7.3:1, which is broader than those of conventional CVTs and even typical 7-speed automatic transmissions. Fuel economy is now rated at 31 mpg City, 40 mpg Highway and 35 mpg Combined with the CVT transmission; 27/36/30 mpg with the 5-speed manual transmission; and 26/35/30 mpg with the 4-speed automatic transmission.

Every 2013 Versa Sedan also offers an exterior design that is both sophisticated and aerodynamic, along with an open, airy, high-quality interior with 60/40-split fold-down rear seat and Fine Vision instrumentation.

Versa Sedan's long list of available equipment includes available Bluetooth Hands-free Phone System, SiriusXM Satellite Radio (SiriusXM subscription required, sold separately) and an in-dash 5-inch touch screen navigation system with NavTraffic (SiriusXM subscription required, sold separately) and USB input for iPod and other compatible devices.

Versa Sedan is available in four models - 1.6 S (5-speed manual and 4-speed automatic), 1.6 S Plus CVT, 1.6 SV (CVT) and 1.6 SL (CVT).
