2015 Nissan Versa Note Hatchback 1.6 SV 4dr Hatchback (1.6L 4cyl CVT)
Note-Worthy update
 This is an update on my previous review.  After 26,190 miles, the Nissan Versa Note keeps on going with no complaints.  The front seat are comfortable for my 5' 10" medium frame, especially when considering that some of my trips are 12 hours at a stretch.  The back seats and leg room are huge.  The A/c and heater work fine for the Texas, New Mexico, and Colorado environments.  My driving characteristics are moderate, but I like driving to the legal limit, and taking it faster on mountain roads as the standard tires grip well, and the brakes are excellent in spite of deer and elk seem to have a death wish by Nissan Note proxy.  It handles well in light snow and wet weather.  The wipers are very good.  While the power is certainly not its strong suit, it still makes it up Vail or Wolf Creek Pass in remarkable form, especially considering its small engine.  The night driving lights are very adequate.  I find the car quiet; as quiet as our Toyota Avalon [wife tends to disagree on the Note is not as comfortable, but then we are talking about a high end Toyota], which is again surprising when considering that the Note is essentially an entry level car.  It was unfortunately so quiet, especially with an absence of wind noise, that I got caught in west Texas doing 78 in a 65 mile zone.  Visibility is very good.  A odd finding is that my gas mileage is amazing, particularly in the mountains of northern New Mexico and Colorado, my August and September monthly averages being 45.1 mpg by computer and calculations.  This is also noteworthy when you consider that we were carrying a full load during our trips.  In Texas, my monthly average is lower at 38.1 mpg, presumably due to the higher density of air [1,000 ft elevation vs. 8,400 ft].  We have had no service, mechanical, or electrical problems, just oil changes and tire rotation every 5,000 miles, and the people at Bates Nissan in Killeen, Tx have been most courteous and prompt in their servicing of this vehicle.  Even the standard radio on the SV version is fairly good.  The CVT transmission takes a little getting use to, but using both the "power" button on the transmission shifter and your right foot permitted us to pass some slow moving vehicles on mountain roads where forward visibility was limited.  One more thing; It feels like you are driving a much bigger car than it is Cons:  We wish that the car came with an outside temperature indicator, and the horn seems a bit tinny.  Also, on some cold mountain mornings, the dashboard indicated "low tire pressure" but did not indicate which tire it was.  There was never a problem once the outside temperature warmed up, but we spent needless time checking to see if we picked up a nail in any of the tires.  Also, our previous car had a in-dash compass, which was handy when driving on mountain dirt roads, and hoping that you were going in the right direction.  While we found the car essentially basic versus other more expensive "loaded" vehicles, it was user friendly in its relative simplicity.  While I could afford a much more expensive vehicle, its excellent gas mileage and low maintenance cost of the Nissan Note, plus the above comments, why spend more on a vehicle that depreciates the instant you take it off the lot when this car seems to satisfy the needs for getting where you want to go in economical and quiet safety.  If you need a vehicle to enhance your ego, or need the latest tech stuff, or air-conditioned/heated seats, or a car that tears up concrete, then don't get this car.
