Nissan has finally decided to replace (we hope!) the ugly Tiida-based Versa five-door, its base model in the US model lineup, with a car that’s a bit more pleasant to look at.
The replacement is called the Versa Note and will be aimed at the North American sub-compact market. Even though it will compete with models like the Ford Fiesta or Hyundai Accent, this is ore a minivan-shaped vehicle, which makes it a practical man’s choice.

The Versa Note will be powered by a familiar 1.6-liter engine (same as the Versa Sedan) that produces just 109-horsepower and 107 lb-ft of torque. It will be coupled to either the standard five-speed manual or an optional Xtronic CVT, which promises to return an impressive 40 mpg highway, 31 mpg city and 35 mpg combined.

Prices will start at $13,990 (excluding destination). Four trim levels will be available (S, S Plus, SV and SL). Deliveries will start this summer across the US.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
