Now that Mitsubishi has buried the Mirage, Nissan's subcompact sedan remains the least expensive new car you can buy.

With the Mitsubishi Mirage G4 Sedan already having one foot out the door, the Nissan Versa will enter the 2025 model year as the cheapest brand-new car one can buy on US soil. That still holds true in spite of the significant price hike coming for the Nissan sedan, reflecting at least a $500 increase across the range.

$16,130 before destination charge at launch made the 2024 Nissan Versa the most affordable new car in the United States for said model year. Be that as it may, the subcompact car has lost said title for 2025 to the Mitsubishi Mirage hatchback due to pricing adjustments across the board.

All Versa models are equipped with a 1.6-liter four-cylinder that produces 122 horsepower and 114 pound-feet of torque. Other than the manual-equipped S, all other Versas get the Xtronic CVT. The five-speed manual Versa will fetch you an EPA-rated 30 mpg in combined driving. The CVT fuel economy improves to 35 mpg combined.
