What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2011 Nissan Versa

2011 Nissan Versa Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2012 4dr Sedan 109-horsepower 1.6L I4
CVT FWD
Only subcompact we test drove that could actually fit four adults. More rear leg room than many midsize cars. see full Nissan Versa review
2011 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4
6-speed manual FWD
The seats were ample, and well supported. In my last two cars (a Corolla and a Legacy) I needed a lumbar cushion, but not in the Versa. The seat bottoms also supported my thighs for enough of their length for comfort. see full Nissan Versa review
