Overview

Though basic even for a subcompact sedan, the 5-passenger Nissan Versa does have its share of redeeming qualities, not the least of which is a starting MSRP that will again have the Scrooges of the world dancing in the streets. Other redeeming qualities in this ultra-affordable 4-door include the roomiest rear seating in the segment, an impressive 14.9 cubic feet of trunk space, and a surprisingly comfortable ride.
Nissan has announced no changes for the upcoming year’s Versa lineup, so expect the 2017 version to again come in 4 trims: the S, S Plus, SV, and the flagship SL. All editions offer front-wheel drive (FWD) only, and lower trims have a distinctly low-end feel both inside and out.
The Versa, which debuted for the 2007 model year, last underwent a refresh for 2015. Upgrades included reworked exterior styling, a more upscale interior look, and upgraded cabin amenities like standard Bluetooth hands-free calling (which came on all trims). Now well into its second generation, the Versa, as well as its Versa Note hatchback sibling, won’t ever be plush, but it remains an almost perfect first new car. The Versa Note, by the way, is covered in a separate overview.
Powering this pint-size 4-door is a 1.6-liter inline 4-cylinder engine with three different transmissions. The entry-level S trim is delivered with a standard 5-speed manual transmission, while a 4-speed automatic transmission comes optional. All other trims feature a continuously variable transmission (CVT) that, though clunky, is the most fuel efficient.
Look for all trims boasting the CVT to get an EPA-estimated 31 mpg city/40 highway/35 combined, while a Versa S toting the 5-speed stick-shift gets 27/36/30, and the S with the 4-speed automatic is estimated at 26/35/30. One track test had the Versa going from 0 to 60 in 10.4 seconds, around a half-second slower than most rivals.
Nissan offers the Versa S with distinctly spartan features, for which there is no apology, since its starting price is lower than many similarly sized and equipped used vehicles. Move up to the higher trims and the bling factor rises exponentially, as does the MSRP. Costlier trims boast such standard features as a rear-view camera, power-adjustable outside mirrors, a rear spoiler, and satellite radio, while NissanConnect destination downloads and phone apps also come standard on the SL. The Versa's touted value means a number of glaring omissions, including a tilt-only steering wheel, little in the way of cabin soundproofing, and, in the S, no split-folding rear seatbacks. But, as a positive, an auto-dimming rear-view mirror with an integrated remote garage door opener is optional on all trims, including the base S.
Standard safety features aboard the Versa include the usual array of government-mandated equipment, such as front and front side-mounted airbags, front and rear head curtain airbags, and traction and stability control. Look, also, for front disc and rear drum antilock brakes (ABS). Higher Versa trims add standard front fog/driving lights, turn-signal-integrated mirrors, and a remote antitheft alarm to the list, with the SL also tossing in Nissan’s unique Easy-Fill tire-inflation alert system, which interfaces with the tire-pressure monitor when you’re inflating the tires and beeps the horn as an indication that the proper psi has been reached.
The National Highway Transportation Safety Administration (NHTSA) gives the current Versa its second-highest score of 4 stars overall in crashworthiness testing, while the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) awards it a best score of Good on all tests except for the small-overlap frontal offset, in which the Versa scored a worst-possible Poor. The IIHS also gave its second-highest score of Acceptable for the Versa's LATCH child-seat anchoring system’s ease of use.
Challengers to the Versa, all of which offer better performance and features, as well as a higher price tag, include the Ford Fiesta, Chevrolet Sonic, Scion iA, Hyundai Accent, and Kia Rio.

My 2017 Versa SV is fun to drive, dependable, has enough power for me (if I want 0-60 in 7 seconds I will drive my other car), and it gets incredible gas mileage. Comfortable, nice inside, roomy, good ride, handles well. I cant believe I bought it new for only $19,500 out the door including taxes etc. I also like the way it looks. It is a cleaner smoother design than the new Versas. Kind of reminds me of a modern strectched version of the old VW beetle. I plan to keep it until it falls apart, which will probably be 40 years from now or more.

I got the Versa S and it’s as basic as it gets besides A/C and power steering. Bought it as a commuter car only and it does exactly that. In the city / rural road driving I’m averaging 38 mpg. Feels reliable as can be every time it starts up. I’m sure they have better packages to improve comfort and accessory options but this car fits all of my needs. Definitely a value vehicle with MPG and reliability in front of mind.

Is the 2017 Nissan Versa a good car?
Yes — the 2017 Nissan Versa earns a 4.88/5 user rating, which points to strong owner satisfaction. Drivers commonly praise its reliable nature, comfortable ride, and great gas mileage, and many also like the spacious interior and solid value for the price. The main tradeoff is that some owners want more power and more advanced features, especially in the more basic trims. With 22.1% of listings marked as good or great deals, you still have room to shop selectively.
Is the 2017 Nissan Versa reliable?
Owners rate it 4.88/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.
User feedback repeatedly describes it as reliable, dependable, and a car people can count on over time. The same reviews also point to a trouble-free ownership experience for many drivers, especially when you prioritize the car’s core strengths: comfort, efficiency, and everyday usability. For used buyers, that kind of reputation can reduce long-term ownership risk, though condition still matters a lot on a budget-friendly car.
What should I look for when buying a used 2017 Nissan Versa?
At 58.7% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
You should start with a vehicle history report so you can separate clean examples from cars with prior damage. After that, put inspection priority on body condition, panel alignment, and signs of uneven wear that could point to past repairs or harder use. Because this model is often bought for value, you’ll want to focus on overall condition rather than just the asking price.
Is now a good time to buy a used 2017 Nissan Versa?
This is a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop patiently while still finding worthwhile opportunities.
- Deal availability: 22.1% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Inventory: There are 349 listings available.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 5.78% compared with last year.
- Clean inventory: 58.7% of listings are accident-free.
If you find a listing below $6,995.13, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.
What is the 2017 Nissan Versa's resale value?
The current average of $7,341 sits slightly below last year's $7,791.
That softer pricing suggests the market has already adjusted downward, which can help you buy at a more favorable entry point today. For a future seller, that also means resale value may depend heavily on how well you preserve condition and documentation. A clean history and strong maintenance record should matter more when it’s time to trade or sell.
Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.88/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.
Should I buy a 2017 Nissan Versa or consider a different year?
If you're weighing the 2017 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:
Choose the 2017 if:
- 22.1% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- At 58.7% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 5.78% compared with last year.
- Owners rate it 4.88/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
The bottom line:
The 2017 is a sensible choice if you want a budget-friendly used sedan with strong owner satisfaction and a softer price trend. If you’re price-sensitive, this year looks especially worth considering because the market has cooled and there are still enough listings to compare carefully. If you want the best odds of a clean, well-kept example, focus on condition and history first, then use price as the final filter.
