What Our Members Are Saying about the Real Nissan Versa MPG

Nissan Versa Fuel Economy: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2012 4dr Sedan 109-horsepower 1.6L I4
CVT FWD		 Better than EPA estimates. Averaging 38 mpg combined - 42 mpg + on hwy.
2009 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4
6-speed manual FWD		 Averaging 30-31 miles per gallon, mostly highway miles, lowest average was 29.12 mpg. At around 2.50 a gallon, it takes me less than $30 to fill up. Range gives for about 360 or so miles.
2009 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4
4-speed automatic FWD		 Great mileage for this car. I am consistently getting 34+ mpg on 80% highway driving.
2009 4dr Sedan 122-horsepower 1.8L I4
6-speed manual FWD		 34 mpg on long (3200 mile) road trip
2009 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4
CVT FWD		 just got 44 miles per gallon on a trip with cruise control set at 65mph. I could not believe it.. This was all on flat terrain.
2008 4dr Sedan 122-horsepower 1.8L I4
CVT FWD		 While not as high as advertised, it does have decent economy for a car with such great volume and body profile.
2008 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4
CVT FWD		 For a car this size its economy is really pretty good. I average 30mpg in mixed driving. On the freeway it will get 35mpg. Not too bad for a car I actually fit in.
2008 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4
CVT FWD		 Very Economical to drive
2008 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4
CVT FWD		 Fuel economy is well above average for this size car.
2008 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4
4-speed automatic FWD		 Nearly 30mpg around town, 34+ on the highway.
2008 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4
CVT FWD		 Fair gas mileage. Nothing outstanding, but way better than an SUV.
2008 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4
CVT FWD		 I am getting on average 30MPG
2008 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4
CVT FWD		 Good fuel econ considering the size of the car.
2008 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4
6-speed manual FWD		 I average 10 to 15 stops per day since I am in outside sales and I still get between 31 and 34 which is WAY over the sticker suggestion. I have YET to get under 30 on any tank and I now have 8700 miles on it.
2008 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4
6-speed manual FWD		 While the Versa does not have the greatest fuel economy, it was significantly better than any of the Subarus I wanted, and the fuel economy is comparable to other compact hatchbacks.
2008 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4
6-speed manual FWD		 Good gas mileage, especially for the good amount of room in the front and back seats. Also,lots of cars with good mileage have poor safety ratings due to their lack of mass. The Versa has the best safety rating of the small cars, and sits up higher.
2008 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4
6-speed manual FWD		 i loved that when i did my 1000KM Brisbane to Sydney trip i only had to fill up 1 and a half times
2008 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4
6-speed manual FWD		 The car gets around 30mpg with the 6speed even if driven hard and/or faster than 60mph.
2007 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4
CVT FWD		 Not having owned a small car before the economy is hard to compare to other small cars but compared to what we are used to we are very pleased. It goes a long way on a full tank, especially on a trip, and is great in-city as well.
2007 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4
CVT FWD		 Working with the CVT and not accelerating or braking excessively hard, I still pass more than I get passed and still manage to average over 32 mpg year around.
2007 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4
CVT FWD		 I bought it for the fuel economy but it had not lived up to the advertisements.
2007 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4
4-speed automatic FWD		 In the city & highway, it gets great mileage.
2007 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4
CVT FWD		 Overall very good, one can pretty much time their next fuel stop if putt-putting around town.
2007 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4
4-speed automatic FWD		 Currently getting about 30 MPG mixed
2007 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4
4-speed automatic FWD		 for the price/performance/cargo capacity and interior room it was on par with everything else in the class despite feeling much more solidly built
2007 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4
4-speed automatic FWD		 Excellent highway mileage, 35 MPG to 40 MPG at steady speed below 70 MPH on long trips on flat freeways with Max AC On. Highway MPG drop below 35 MPG at higher cruise speed above 70 MPH. Stop & Go driving, city mileage vary, 18 MPG to 22 MPG average.
2007 4dr Sedan 122-horsepower 1.8L I4
CVT FWD		 comparable fuel economy to other small sedans of that year
2007 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4
CVT FWD		 The Versa has consistently maintained 30+ mpg, considering that the most of our driving is in stop and go traffic I would say that is very good. In instances where we take longer trips with less stops we usually get 34 mpg or better.
2007 4dr Sedan 122-horsepower 1.8L I4
4-speed automatic FWD		 Its decent, but not near what a car that size should be getting.
Nissan Versa Fuel Economy: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2008 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4
CVT FWD		 Not as good as sticker read, 33 HWY is very hard to come by unless you drive every where 50 mph.
2008 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4
6-speed manual FWD		 Anecdotally I have heard that the Versa gets significantly worse mileage than it is supposed to get (which is worse than the Fit to start with), whereas I get better mileage with my Fit than it is rated for.
2007 4dr Sedan 122-horsepower 1.8L I4
CVT FWD		 The EPA revised the fuel economy downward soon after I purchased the car, my fuel economy is very unimpressive despite careful, moderate driving habits.
2007 4dr Sedan 122-horsepower 1.8L I4
4-speed automatic FWD		 less than Fit
2007 4dr Sedan 122-horsepower 1.8L I4
CVT FWD		 poor economy for sacrifice of space, did not get promised fuel economy by 25%
2007 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4
CVT FWD		 In a recent all highway drive over 200 miles each way I was lucky to 33 MPG (using imperial gallons) at 120 kilometres/hour.
