2015 Nissan Versa Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2014 | 0 | I was expecting zero room in the back, but I sat in the backseat even with the drivers seat adjusted far back (I'm 5'11" but long legs and tend to adjust seats to the back end of their travel), I had reasonable legroom for a very compact car. The seat covering material was pleasant as well. see full Nissan Versa review |
