Nissan Versa N18

2020–2026 · N18 · sedan

Third-generation Versa sedan. 1.6L HR16DE I4 (~122hp). Xtronic CVT or 5-speed manual (the manual is one of the cheapest new-car options still available in the US). FWD. Significantly improved styling vs the C13, the floating-roof / V-Motion design borrowed from the bigger sedans. Still aimed at the absolute-cheapest new-car shopper, but no longer the embarrassing-to-park car the C13 was.

Watch out: Xtronic CVT remains the long-term variable. The N18 doesn't have a developed failure pattern yet, too new, but the CVT family is unchanged in basic architecture. If you're hunting value, the 5-speed manual sidesteps the CVT entirely.
