The 2013 Nissan Versa breaks new ground in the entry-level car segment. Offering a sophisticated exterior design, well-appointed interior and exceptional room for five adults, the Versa has been engineered to redefine entry-level value in the automotive market. A 109-horsepower 1.6L engine powers the Versa, with a dual fuel-injection system and twin continuously variable valve timing. This is the first mass production 1.6L 4-cylinder to use a double-nozzle system; it delivers a 57 percent finer spray than the single injector design, which helps ensure stable fuel combustion. Safety is a high priority for the 2013 Nissan Versa, and it is a Top Safety Pick from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. It is also a 4-star overall performer in crash tests conducted by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The Versa's traction control safety is standard and helps maintain control if the vehicle get into snow. It can also be activated if chains are required on icy roads.
