2024 Nissan Versa S | Manual Transmission | +5k miles Owner's Review (Part 2)

[@cmbiker]

Thanks for the detailed review. Definitely want to see more driving videos, including footage of you shifting.

[@plin20000]

Yes, please share a sporty driving vid. I am thinking about ordering one of the 5spd soon and would like to see how it handles the twisty fun roads.

I love the versa so easy to drive and maintain. Nissan already announced that 2025 will be the last year for the Versa here in NA, good thing though they'll still offer the base model with the manual transmission.

Your driving video yes please. Ideally with someone in the backseat doing the filming. I'm more interested in how the clutch and the transmission work at low speed and high speed. With detailed descriptions of clutching and shifting. Like how much tension you feel on the clutch when you press it and how much the car jumps in first gear from a stop. Going through the gears slowly without talking so I can hear it would be nice. Can you shift it with just your thumb and one or two fingers?

I'm curious how aggressive the VDC (stability control) if you drive the Versa very aggressive on turns (i.e. engine cutting off power).

Does it have transmission fluid drain plug and stick to check the fluid, a spare tyre and temperature gauge in the dash board? Lot of these are gone from latest cars these days. I am looking to buy 2025 model.

Thank you for the update. I am interested in a manual Versa. Mainly because it's a manual, and a CHEAP new car! I wish there was a hatchback. Do you use a bike rack on it at all? Curious how that would go? Let me know.

I don't only because I have one for my SUV. I believe a trunk-latching bike rack would work well; I used that on a smaller car I had way back and I had no issues.
