Nissan North America, Inc. today announced pricing on the 2009 Nissan Versa, which went on sale June 16th at Nissan dealers nationwide. Versa remains a leading choice for consumers seeking fuel efficiency without sacrificing performance or roominess. Versa sales have increased 19.6% to date in 2008, with demand increasing every month.
For 2009, Versa again offers the highest standard horsepower/torque ratings and the largest interior in the entry-level segment – along with excellent quality, reliability and durability. Fuel economy is rated at 27 mpg City/33 mpg Highway when equipped with the Xtronic CVT(Continuously Variable Transmission). Changes for 2009 include minor adjustments to content and packaging, along with reducing ordering complexity for consumers.
The front-wheel drive Versa is available in two body styles, a 5-door Hatchback and 4-door Sedan, and in two well-equipped trims, S and SL. The Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price (MSRP)* of each model is:
$12, 990 for the Versa 1.8 S with 6-speed manual transmission (Sedan and Hatchback)
$13,990 for the Versa 1.8 S with 4-speed automatic transmission (Sedan and Hatchback)
$15,990 for the Versa Sedan 1.8 SL with 4-speed automatic transmission
$16,210 for the Versa Hatchback 1.8 SL with CVT
“When Versa joined the Nissan lineup two years ago, we called it the right vehicle with the right size, economy, performance, quality, safety and features – at the right value,” said Al Castignetti, vice president and general manager, Nissan Division, Nissan North America, Inc.
“That equation makes even more sense today as buyers look for higher fuel economy without compromising style, durability or driving enjoyment.”
Built on Nissan’s proven B-platform, every 2009 Versa is powered by a standard 122-horsepower 1.8-liter DOHC 4-cylinder engine. The stylish Versa also offers a spacious cabin with best-in-class total passenger volume and rear leg room and a comfortable, stress-free environment. Both Versa Hatchback and Versa Sedan models are offered with a long list of standard and available equipment, including available Nissan Intelligent Key, Bluetooth® Hands-free Phone System, XM® Satellite Radio (XM® subscription required, sold separately) and power moonroof.
