The 2025 Nissan Versa Is the Last Car to Buy for Under $20,000

November 20th, 2024 by

There used to be a time when you could easily purchase a brand-new car for under $20,000. If you could not afford a vehicle that could give you more than what you needed, there were plenty of affordable vehicles that could give you great value. However, there is one vehicle that is built to the highest standards possible but with a price that is still affordable to many—the 2025 Nissan Versa.

Not only is it the smallest sedan in our lineup, but the Nissan Versa was designed and engineered to be a “class above.” Nissan made it clear it was not building the Versa just for price. The manufacturer added quality to everything that you see in this smaller sedan, quality you can feel and touch with a higher level of technology and safety features.  

First of all, the 2025 Versa is all about giving you maximum comfort in a small sedan. It offers the largest interior volume in its size class. Adults can sit comfortably in the back seat. There is also up to 15 cubic feet of trunk space available, with fold-down rear seatbacks for longer cargo.

On the 2025 Versa, you have the choice of adding smartphone integration with Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. Our SR model features NissanConnect Services, along with a Wi-Fi Mobile Hotspot. All models offer Bluetooth connectivity for hands-free calling and music file playback.  

Every 2025 Versa is powered by a 122-horsepower 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine. Depending on the grade you select, you have the choice of a five-speed manual gearbox or the Xtronic CVT transmission. This nimble driveline can yield an average of 40 mpg on the highway and 32 mpg in the city. 

Each 2025 Versa offers the standard Nissan Safety Shield 360 suite of driver assistance features. These features include Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection, Lane Departure Warning, Rear Automatic Braking, and High Beam Assist. Available safety technologies include Blind Spot Warning and Rear Cross Traffic Alert. Neither of these features are found standard on other vehicles at the Versa’s price point.

All of this is wrapped in a handsome package—one that throws away the word “cheap” for “high value with high style.” Wide-opening doors, comfortable seats…what more could you ask for in a sedan? 

There is one more thing. All 2025 Nissan Versa models come with Nissan Maintenance Care, offering up to three scheduled oil changes within two years or 24,000 miles, whichever occurs first. 

How much for all of this? The 2025 Nissan Versa starts at an MSRP of $17,190. You have a choice of three trim levels. In all, this is a great price for a sedan that gives you more than you expect.
