The Worst Car Ever Made? Lets Review The 2018 Nissan Versa! 

Even tho I complimented this car mid way through the review, watch the flame and hate comments roll in. While everything I said is true, most of the things I say I am just kidding. Folks this is a comedy review, just based on some facts.

Let's clear something up here, you don't buy a Nissan Versa for performance. This is not a driver's car, this is for the college student or the family needing a low-budget sedan. This is what cars were like 20-30 years ago and people were generally content. This car is a counter answer to the modern trends in automotive manufacturing. There's very few electronics, only basic controls, and the price is basic as well. If Ford took a truck and stripped all the fancy stuff out of it, it would be about 18k, but they won't do that because there's no money in it.

it's a car takes you where you need to go.

that car will run twice as long as any dodge or Chrysler product if you weren't aware Chrysler has the worst reliability out of any automotive manufacturer and has for the past 20 years

More tech = more problems. I have a versa, and am grateful for the low tech hand crank windows. Ive had to replace a few electric window motors, and it aint fun. For the money you spend on the versa , you wil get many years of worry free and gas saving mileage.

He's reviewing this car with a "caviar" taste. It's an economy car and a great one at that. It gets you where you need to go and not break your wallet.

This is the worst video have ever made! 🤣

its because its a budget economy car.stop complaining!

You act like ita a 60,000 doller car its good for the cheap price it has

My local Nissan has these for $12k new, I don't think its that bad for the price.

Lol, dude complaining about that stock radio. It has front USB, bluetooth, Aux Input, CD player, MP3, bluetooth A2DP and handsfree, steering controls and dedicated answer and hangup controls on the head unit and steering wheel. I don't know what else you expect, that is a very complete product and the Compact Disc player is very welcomed.

My parents got me a 2017 versa for my first car last month and I thinks its held up so far.

Negative Nancy over here.

Good car fuel efficient, but they have a lot of cvt transmission issues, our car barely has 43,000 mileage and its having transmission issues. But this guy is exaggerating the car is actually very spacious, even the glove compartment, and trunk is spacious hes being very exaggerating

lol if you hate the car, why bother wasting your time with it...

I have owned a 2018.5 Nissan Versa SV, for a few months now, and I am very pleased with it! Very roomy, smooth, quiet comfortable ride, very well appointed interior and trunk space. Interior cabin is very roomy and comfortable, especially the seats. I have been averaging over 40 MPG combined City and Highway! What more could you ask for?

I rented one of these a few years back. It was shockingly adequate! Seriously, I was surprised how... okay it was. Up through the 80s, 90s, into the 2000s... driving the cheapest cars on the market was just a horrible experience. It felt like punishment. You got something like a 1980s Ford Escort or even like an early 2000s Kia Rio and everything was flimsy, you didn't get antilock brakes, the stereo sounded like a clock radio, the cars didn't feel stable over 60mph, and they were so underpowered that you dreaded highway driving. Even the turn signal stalks felt like they'd snap off at some point. None of those things is true about the current Versa sedan. It's perfectly adequate transportation. Drove it to and from work every day for about a week on a rather hellish hourlong commute. I seriously had zero complaints. Comfort was fine, and I'm 6'1" 250lbs. Had plenty of headroom. I don't know how this reviewer dude felt cramped. Absolutely nothing on this car was what you'd call nice, but... nothing (aside from how dorky it looked) was really bad either. Even the radio was fine. I am really shocked and impressed that Nissan can sell these for 12 grand new or whatever they cost.

I have a 2018 versa s 5 speed manual, and it's perfectly fine. has alot of back seat space, great truck space, and the manual responds really well. It does need a bit more power but over all it's a really great car. I would get the manual if you can drive one, it's much better than the cvt

I worked at a rent a car company the big 3 (Alamo/Enterprise/National). And i move 2 cars per day, to different branches over a 25 mile trip. This car had the best mpg in the fleet. My record is 57 mpg with this car.

A car payment of 100 bucks a month on a 12000 dollar car would take 6000 down plus tax and plates assuming you got 0% interest for 60 months. C'mon man, I realize it's not the greatest but let's be serious about the math.

When you described the Versa tires, I thought you were talking about your legs.. 😂😂

worst car is the mitsubishi mirage😂

I have a 2017 Nissan Versa and I absolutely love it. It’s my first car and I’ll drive it until the wheels fall off! It’s the perfect car for a new driver, or college student. It’s genuinely a good car.

I have a 2009 Versa and it's still running but it's a 5-speed

that s not how that car was built, its made to transfort you from a to b, its a simple car, it kind of a old school, no t=electronic much

I have the 2019 and I love it mine does have a touchscreen radio with backup camera

I have a 2018 nissan versa sv and it's the best car I ever had ! I absolutely love it, this guy is just a hater, my bro is 6'5" and fits just fine in it. And the glove box is very deep! Pretty much everything this hater said is false

I bought my 2014 Nissan Versa SV brand new and now has 145000 miles, NO ISSUES at all. Maintenance has always been done and have spent about $3000 in maintenance in 6 years (bought in 2013 as a 2014). People maintain your vehicles! I have changed the transmission oil 3 times already and no issues at all. This little car literally drove me to a mechanical engineering degree! Drove 3 days a weeks for 2.5 he's one way, then drove back same day for 3 years to school.

I have driven my 2015 Versa from Texas to NYC and back three years in a row now. I love the way it handled the road with four people and a trunk full of stuff. It was comfortable to drive, but the best thing was the money I saved on gasoline. Stop complaining so much about the Versa.

All these 'negatives' seem to be actual positives

Supposedly slow but it accelerates a hell of alot faster than my Accent did.

DON'T EVER WEAR SHORTS AGAIN!!!!! 🐔🐔🐔🐔🐔🐔🐔🐔🐔🐔🐔🐔🐔🐔🐔🐔🐔🐔🐔🐔

Great car for the money and gas mileage. I actually like the old school manual components. I bought the S model for a commuter that's cheap and dependable. It does the job well. Also more interior space than any of the other subcompacts I looked at. Gets me where I need to go economically.

I had a 2016 Nissan Versa SV . It was actually a great car . I was getting 41 miles a gallon . The car is so spacious. He's very dramatic! I have to say that It was very light on the hwy. But overall the car is great . I traded it at 37,000 miles for an 2018 Toyota Corolla LE .

I bought a 2018 Nissan Versa 5sp mt brand new at 20 years old with absolutely no credit and no co sign. Low maintenance cost great gas mileage and I can replace all 4 tires for less than $130. Also I’m 6’4 and fit in this car just fine. I’m beyond happy with how my versa has treated me.

This review is terrible

How can u say this is bad? Why don't u mention the price? For that price, it's awesome..

Own a 2012, it has been decent, A few warranty repairs such as the transmission. That engine loves to rev, great in the hills. Fantastic mileage, very roomy. Tons of trunk space. It is basic having owned a 90 geo metro, this is way above. That geo went 350k without issue. Did i mention the fantastic air conditioning? Simplicity is great, don't need all the distractions of modern cars. Maintenance has been cheap oil change for $25 A set of tires only because they were old, had plenty of tread at 80k, still on original brakes.

Dude what do you expect from a new $12000 car?

I have rarely (never) listened to a more dishonest review. Start with the seats--they are extremely comfortable. The car is plenty big--plenty of room--it has a bigger trunk than most of the subcompact. the handling is great etc. etc. the review is absurd and totally dishonest.

I have the 1.2L manual version. In my country it's called the Almera. It has parking sensors, Caska multimedia, rear camera, automatic windows and all the basic stuffs and no useless fancy tech. It's very economic and reliable. The manual version is quite fast for 79HP. No need to rev above 2500rpm for good acceleration, and easily gets way above 60mi/h.

I’ve never had any problems you’re listing. The interior is one of the biggest for a sub compact sedan. The suspension is comfortable and I live in Michigan so that’s all I’m gonna say. Steering is a bit light at highway speeds but after driving it an hour or two you get used to it, it was never “unsafe” feeling as you said though. The only thing I disliked was the CVT transmission. The HR16DE is a very solid engine with very minimal issues compared to many modern vehicles. If you can find one in manual I’d recommend you keep one in the back of your garage. I’m calling it now these cars will be loved one day!

I noticed it gets squirrelly at 80mph. I used to do 90mph in my Cobalt without even noticing. It’s probably good I have the Versa now that I have a kid. It keeps my driving at a safe speed

Yes the car is made from cheap material but come on do you really need a touch screen in the middle or a back up camera. Does nobody know how to use a mirror anymore.

It is faster than most sports cars. I have gone 160 mph on a dry lake bed. It is so fricken light the engine barely has to push it.

no my friend versa is very good car for 12000 dollars sir

Doesn't know what he is talking about. It's a good little car.

I like the way this car looks, I like the fact that it's affordable, but all the negative reviews are really preventing me from buying one. Based on those reviews, the biggest issue with the Versa, and Nissan cars in general, is the transmission. It's a CVT, which is a sealed unit that can't be repaired when it fails. You have to buy a new one, meaning that what you save in the short term, is paid in the long term, because in the long term, everything fails.

I’m 6’2 and fit in it perfectly

I own a 2016 versa, used. I got it because of exactly as you mentioned in this video: nothing but decent gas mileage. I think that's the audience Nissan was going for with this line of vehicles. While all these downsides should go without saying, you're deeefinitely coming at it from a very unrealistic angle. Very accurate nonetheless!

I came in heated, pressed play, saw it was an automatic, immediately stopped caring... I have a 2017 S manual and its the bare bones daily that gives me no problems, manual seats and windows, cloth seats, no annoying alarm, full spare, and cheap on gas.

What do you need a backup camera for

My first car 2016 Versa sv I got in college. However the suspension is very sensitive. Also the usb is not for charging phone but for playing music if u have an iPhone 🥲😅

I own a 2017 Versa SV and it's great on gas. I just hope it doesn't have transmission problems like some comments mention.

This car is actually really good for the money. Compared to it's closest competition, the Mitsubishi Mirage which starts at around 1-2k more, the Nissan Versa is the better choice, especially with the manual transmission. It has a lot of things you'd expect from a modern car of it's class, without charging you a little extra for things you can't have. This car is faster than the Mirage, it's more spacious, it's more reliable, it has more features for it's price, road noise isn't noticeable, ride quality is better, build quality is better, and unlike the Mirage; it can go up a hill without stalling, making weird noises, and rattling like crazy. I owned both the Mirage and the Versa, and I can say that the Nissan Versa is a winner.

This thing is perfect for a hockey player just going across America to play. It's not a high performance car. I own one and it's the best car I've had it does everything I need.

I was in my 2008 Lexus IS 250 and one these was in my way on the freeway. Had to zoom around him. Did so effortlessly but damn these cars seem so weak. They also seem tall, like if you turn too hard you’ll flip the thing over. I own a 2018 Toyota Corolla also... for the purpose of driving for Uber. I wouldn’t take passengers in this thing!

Got my 2015 for $14k with taxes and fees. Don't regret it for a second. Make sure you get the 4 speed automatic, as the CVT has been known to have issues.

Sorry to tell you, you were trying so hard, this review is a complete BS 🤭 First of all you are talking about entry level car, so don’t expect to see luxury setting 🤔 Nissan Versa is a low parts count, low maintenance reliable vehicle 🚗 We have 2007 hatchback, 1.8L engine with over 100K MLS no big issues (third set of brakes, second set of tires, one ball joint replaced) and 2012 sedan for my son who is taller than you and feels comfortable driving it, with 1.6L engine his car hauling 4 people and some cargo like it should and going up hills with no big effort. I upgraded both cars with sound systems and reverse cameras. Driving long distance No problems, steering is tight, rides soft, very roomy for the size! You cannot compare Versa to more expensive cars and there is no such a thing as “cheap plastic” plastic is plastic and not any composite material or leather 😜 BTW, Your enthusiasm is impressive 🥳

I agree about the SV, not nearly as cute as the SV Special Edition. SV Special Edition has an upgraded interior. But I disagree about the trunk storage, it's bigger than my old Kia Spectra, oddly enough. For a small car, it's very well designed for seating and trunk. My boyfriend is bigger than you, and he was surprised how comfortable he is in it. It's not a speed racer, but great for what I need it for - driving in a city, with streets designed for horse carts. Versa gets the last laugh, because it's easy to parallel park anywhere and easy to get around on the narrow streets. My Kia was more fun to drive, but the Versa is more fun to deal with the awful gas prices, and city driving is a breeze.

At least you get cruise control. I’m buying an 07 and I’ll have to suffer

You sound like my old aunt complaining about this car. Take you $12K and buy a Ferrari or Lambo instead of this car.

I bought this car new in 2017 the money I saved in gas vs my expedition payed for the car $11,000 out the door

The car has more room than you stated......coming from a 6ft 1 in 260lb man.

Some of y’all just WANT to waste money on gas. I drive my Nissan Versa 6 hours from desert to valley for $30 bucks.... and fits my family perfectly and comfortably. If you want all the finer things in life then fine get something else but it does its job well and I’m not broke cuz of it.

Wait hold up my versa doesn’t even have an arm rest 💀

The thing is u have to review the car based on what is was made to do, its not a sports car its an affordadble economy car made to get u from point a to b on a budget I have personally drove one its not some luxery sedan but it does what it was made to do. What can you really expect for how much it cost. You get what you pay for, I feel it comes equiped with the essientials and what more do you "really" need.

I have a almost 10 year old Versa...... I have had it 3+ years. No issues. It’s not comfortable but other than that it’s fine. Don’t really worry about it getting dirty or scratched lol.

I beg to differ, it is a cheap car but it's very roomy. My daughter had one.

The cvt automatics are absolute trash But you can have a little bit of fun with a manual transmission model

I’ll take it if it’s so bad.

Lots of comments. I own a ‘17 Versa 5M. Peppy with the 5-speed. Altima-sized trunk and glove box is fine. Back seat room almost equals Altima as well. Sure, lots of plastique, it’s a $12k car. I love mine!

Inherited my fathers 2011 1 Versa in 2016 (1.8sl automatic). I already had a '13 Camry that I had purchased new for around 24K. Figured it would be nice to have a extra car around. Even thou the Camry cost twice as much and is a better looking car (I got Attitude Black), the seats in the Camry are uncomfortable, it's loaded with cheap plastic (two pieces of plastic actually fell off of the seats in the car), and I had to take it back to the dealer at 30k miles to have work done on the breaks (which was still under warranty). On top of that the paint on the car was so cheap my front bumper got damaged from rock chips on the road. NONE of these issues occurred with my father's old Versa. The seats are comfortable, it's had no major issues and it's now hitting 95K miles (and the seats are WAYYY more comfortable than the new Camry that I bought). Now my wife (who talks crap about the Versa all the time similar to yourself), wants to drive the Versa all the time not the Camry????. So don't take some of the comments as being negative and "hateful". It's just that people are passionate about their Versa's!!!

I have a strong dislike for the 2nd gen Versa, but it's not even on the top 50 of worst cars ever made. I have owned multiple cars worse than this before I turned 25 years old.

I got a 2017 manual versa and I love it....

Hi just drove one as a rental for a week and I disagree with everything he says.

It's a car that today still a Car 🚗 Not a smartphone or Computer with wheels, Real Car don't need unnecessary features that my phone has already💡

I've been keeping my eye on a 2014 Nissan Versa sedan for $3,000 with very low miles. Now I'm having second thoughts.

I thought you were going to tell us something, if you compare this car with a nice large truck, then this is unfair advantage, I'm a 6.2 238,lb man and I think is the BEST, and simply to maintain, I would buy another.

I have a Nissan Almera(Versa), bought it for work. Yes it’s not the fastest car, yes, it does not have all the fancy features, but for what I NEED it for, it does the job. Lots of space, low maintenance, takes me from A to B, and I can also use it on long trips when going on holiday. I also own a BMW X1 and that car fits what I NEED/WANT it for.

Not accurate at all! I'm 6 3 had to move the seat forward and the rear room is amazing for a small car. I'm not into this type of car but am buying one for my son's first car. Good car for a fair price.

My coworker has one and, despite a lot of these comments disagreeing with you, she agrees with you. She advised not buying it nor any Nissan.

Guy reviews a 12,000 dollar Nissan versa and complains its nothing like a Ferrari....LOL!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

The gas mileage is fantastic. The price totally made up for everything on my 16 Versa 😆

My versa might only have a 100 ponies but that didn’t stop me from getting subs in it 😂😂😂

Your view on it being a bargain with good gas mileage is definitely why I bought this car (the 2017 model). It has been a wonderful car for the last six and a half years. No major issues all the way to 140,000 miles. Also, I know it's not exciting...but how do you feel about the Mitsubishi Mirage? I think this one is better...lol.

Somewhat of an unpopular opinion, but in my defense I got to rent one in Florida. The car struggled to go up hills and revved a lot to get moving. There weren’t any check engine lights or anything, it’s just that the cvt transmission is garbage.

My Versa has a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine tuned to deliver 600 hp and 663 lb-ft of torque. Mated to a Sadev 6-Speed sequential gearbox and all-wheel drive system, it could sprint from 0-62 mph in less than two seconds.

I rented one of these. I agree it wasn't comfortable at all. But it was super easy to park !

In fairness, who would actually need a back-up camera in a car that small? If a person can't turn and look over their shoulder to see if something is back there, maybe wait until the neck brace comes off before driving a Versa. Also, still not as bad as a Mitsubishi Mirage. And if you hunt around just a tiny bit, the Mirage can be found awfully close to just $10K.

We just bought this exact year versa and my wife loves it!

My mom had a white Nissan versa and actually she have our car seats in there

Listen to me you dumb craps... I bought this car in 2013 (2014 model year with 10 miles on it), put about 85K miles in 3 years of commuting to college. Happy to say it never broke down on me on the freeway and guess what? Got me through engineering school? Besides me having the brains to complete a Mechanical Engineering degree, I'd like to think that this Versa also helped me in completing my college degree because it never broke down on me. It now has 156K miles, I still own it and has yet to break down on me and still has a quiet engine at iddle. Now I drive a $77K truck because this little Versa never broke down on me and because I treated it good (good maintenance).

I have a 2019 5sp. Nippon racing mag1 wheels. Bcracing Br coilovers. Nismo exhaust. Slotted and drilled rotors. I autox and trackday this car it's fun.

Its simple. Get a manual 4 cylinder without any bells and whistles and you avoid 90 percent of problems that people have with cars nowadays. Not because those things are better made, but because they just arent there!

I bought a Nissan Certified 2018.5 Versa SV in May 2019 and have owned it for 3 months now. I have been averaging over 40 MPG per tank of gas, and the ride is very smooth, and the seats are very comfortable! I highly recommend this Versa if you are looking for an affordable, comfortable, quiet, smooth riding car. The Versa SV is a lot of car for the money!!

An abomination of a car. Really dude? The Nissan Versa is a great car, and I don't see anything wrong with a budget-friendly car. So get your facts straight!

I own a 2011 manual 6 speed transmision with 235k miles runs like a champ I’ve put 20k miles in less than 4 months and I have been happy with the car is fun and zippy

Wrong, the mitsubishi mirage is worse😂

Great car!! Mine runs like a champ.
