Reviews SummaryAfter decades of being the frumpy leader of the fuel-efficiency movement, the Prius emerges as one of the better-looking new cars to hit the market recently. This fifth-generation revelation in looks is then backed up by a huge jump in power without sacrificing any of the fuel-sipping ways of the earlier model. Add in impressive standard safety features and a reasonable suite of interior tech and comfort goodies, and you have an impressive hatchback that just now happens to be a hybrid. | |
Reviews SummaryWith nearly 10,000 Versas sold in the U.S. every month for the past half-decade, you’ve likely seen a few on the road. More likely, you’ve passed them. In order to infuse some hatchback heat into the brand, Nissan took its very successful Note from Asian markets and added the Versa name for U.S. shores. For 2015 it offers two new trims, the SR and SL, which add some sport pretensions and tech chops to the compact crossover. | |
