Small outside, big inside. Intelligent technology for next-generation efficiency. MSRP $ 10,990 base, and low. New dual injector system, and part of the CVT on the planet. Since combined city / highway fuel consumption of 33 miles per gallon. A new world of "V" (rich) surface. Sophisticated design and high quality interior.
There are thousands of ways for the new 2012 Nissan Versa sedan innovative entry-level compact sedan. And many ways to sum it all up. Perhaps a simple statement is the best: innovation in hand.
"The compact cars are a lot of attention lately due to rising fuel costs and concern for the environment however, many buyers are disappointed by what they find -. vehicles in the grip of a commitment," said Al Castignetti , vice president and general manager, Nissan Division, Nissan North America, Inc. "The Versa sedan, I usually design a" blank sheet ", taking into small cars in a new direction - which shows you do not have to sacrifice style for affordability, habitability of a smaller size, or handling high mpg.

Small when you need it, wherever you want Big
Given that entry-level vehicles used as "workhorse" - for travel on weekdays, weekends racing and running on the transport of family and friends all week - the designers of the new sedan Nissan Versa has attempted to combine practical five passengers with a high degree of comfort and refinement. It also provides an unexpected level of entertainment available and connectivity features like Bluetooth ® navigation system with 5-inch touch screen display, satellite radio and an iPod ® / USB.
"We see buyers in this segment, as people who are always busy, even while you relax," said Castignetti. "With the amount of time they normally use in their vehicles, we want to make them feel good about their purchases after the new car smell is gone so we invested in areas they see and affect most of the available instrumentation -. similar vision fine, quality fabrics, bright and before finishing work on comfortable seats and rear passengers.

Nissan Versa Sedan Interior to 90.0 cubic feet and the trunk space of 14.8 cubic feet (104.8 cubic feet in total) are designed not only look great on a spec sheet - passengers and cargo spaces are set for actual use. Nissan Versa sedan, for example, more legroom in the back as some midsize sedans - surpassing even luxury cars like the Lexus LS460, BMW 5 Series and Mercedes-Benz E-Class and the design of the boot focuses on the useful space, considering everything from the size of the hinges to the shape of the flanks. A 60-40 folding rear seat is available on SL models for greater versatility.
Other available interior features include trip computer, power windows with driver one-touch down, the speed sensing auto door locks, lever remote trunk release and steering wheel mounted audio controls. Two interior colors are available, sandstone and coal.
The Nissan Versa sedan new exterior design is a departure from most recent compact sedan that offers a sleek design, cool character who is sophisticated and very aerodynamic.
"The Versa sedan stands out as the only car in the cost of searching in the segment - with great power of the eye," said Castignetti "The proportions of the modern dynamic sculpture are without apparatus, projecting a big part. The higher the value of design as one might expect in a vehicle with a starting MSRP of $ 10 990 "

To achieve the style Versa Sedan, Nissan designers have given the outward form of a strong sense of volume, with wide broad shoulders and a shapely figure. In front, the Nissan Versa sedan design with new grille and jewel-like headlights sedan.
The front blends smoothly into the cabin, which provides fluid curves, while design elements such as the shape trunklid help give the new Nissan Versa sedan aerodynamic quality, including a low drag coefficient of only 0, 31.
In addition, to help ensure superior functionality, initially discussed new ideas between designers and design teams. For example, the jagged line in the middle of the roofline sweep the Nissan Versa sedan is not only a design feature, but the functional innovation, which helps to reduce the amplitude of vibration of the roof panel to create an interior passenger compartment more Quiet, the strengthening of the devices known as "bumper".
"The design and engineering met in an extraordinary collaboration to create a level of sophistication not only see but also feel," said Castignetti. "This helps give a sense of" modern values "that goes beyond the simple purchase price, as was expected, more expensive sedan."

Other features include an external antenna fixed roof, body-color front and rear bumpers, and is available in chrome-accented grille, black-out B-pillars, door handles and chrome front.
The 2012 Versa sedan is offered in eight exterior colors, including Metallic Blue, Blue Onyx, Super Black, Bright Silver, magnetic gray, brick red, fresh powder and titanium - which has already been reserved for the Nissan GT-R models Nissan.
Next-Generation Performance and a brand new V-platform
One of the biggest challenges for the design of a compact sedan which is, of course, to all - members of persons, goods, engine, gearbox and other mechanical parts. Often the solution is to bring fractional inches here, a fraction there and I hope that will add up to a service useful. The new Nissan Versa sedan, the approach was a little 'more radical - to create a whole new global platform and transmission, reducing the size of the engine and transmission, reducing parts and reduces the weight of the platform.
"It is unusual to develop a new platform for a vehicle in only its second generation, but when driven by a culture of innovation, such investments are easy to do," said Castignetti.

"It is unusual to develop a new platform for a vehicle in only its second generation, but when driven by a culture of innovation, such investments are easy to do," said Castignetti.
The new Versa sedan with front wheel drive 2012 global "V", the platform, called "V" versatile uses components from around 20 percent of the platform and weighs about 150 pounds lighter than the previous "B" platform form. While retaining the same wheelbase of 102.4 inches wide and 66.7 inches from the previous generation Nissan Versa sedan, the new model is 1.2 inches lower in height (59.6 inches) and less than 0 6 inches overall length (175.4 inches). The greatest gain size, however, is the gain in body length - provided by a more compact engine / transmission design allows for increased rear overhang of 2.7 inches (the distance between the center wheel back to the rear bumper).
"The new Versa sedan shows that when it comes to the aerodynamic efficiency of the packaging and are not all created equal small sedans," said Castignetti. "The same can be said about the engine that combines very many outstanding environmental performance, flexible and reactive power, quiet operation. "
HR16DE The second generation 1.6-liter 4-cylinder includes a wide range of technologies, making it one of the most advanced engines in the class. For example, while the engine uses an average of one injector per cylinder with fuel injection, the new Nissan Versa sedan engine is equipped with two injectors mounted simplified near the intake valve of each cylinder. This double-injection system provides greater fuel injection spray nozzles with a thinner lower (about 57 percent thinner than the particle size of the previous generation of single injection of design) to help achieve stable combustion.

This double-injection system provides greater fuel injection spray nozzles with a thinner lower (about 57 percent thinner than the particle size of the previous generation of single injection of design) to help achieve stable combustion.
The new compact, lighter engine also uses a dual-time control of continuous variation (CVTC) mounted on the intake and exhaust system (CVTC against conventional systems that are mounted at the entrance only), similar to the system used in Nissan's flagship Maxima. The use of CVTC in the port of departure increases the thermal efficiency, reduces inhalation resistance and offers a four percent improvement in energy efficiency.
Other improvements include the addition of the oil jet piston, piston Tune in top condition and the expansion of the diameter of the exhaust manifold.
"In order to integrate the new system of double injectors in a vehicle entry level is very appropriate to Nissan corporate philosophy of" Innovation for All "- to bring the technology to high-volume segments, instead of saving them only for high-end machines, "said Castignetti. "The new system also uses dual-injection about half the amount of rare metals in the catalyst by reducing the amount of unburned fuel and hydrocarbon emissions."

The new 1.6-liter engine is rated at 109 hp @ 6000 rpm and 107 lb-ft of torque at 4400 rpm.
Nissan Versa Sedan is available in 5-speed transmission (1.6 S model), and the next generation Xtronic CVT ™. CVT can constantly change gear ratio of transmission by connecting two pulleys and a belt made of metal, changing the diameter of the use of hydraulic pressure. The new design adds an additional CVT gear ratio, using the planet to help improve efficiency.
CVT is also a gear ratio is 7.3:1, which is wider than the traditional CVTS and also a typical 7-speed automatic transmission. Friction is reduced by about 30 percent by weight to about 13 percent, and the size of about 10 percent over the previous CVT design Nissan Versa hatchback.
Nissan Versa also offers low rolling resistance P185/65R15 all-season tires with 15-inch aluminum alloy available.
"The result of these improvements and progress is the engine new Nissan Versa sedan burns cleaner and uses less fuel, which, combined with improved aerodynamic performance and better CVT reduces total fuel consumption by about five miles gallon compared with the Versa sedan 2011, "said Castignetti. "Better mileage means fewer stops at stations -. Y" The room in the portfolio "for further work"
