Hey guys, not sure if this was already posted but the details of the completely redesigned Versa have been released, and there are some really interesting details that I noticed:

-Completely new chassis platform, redesigned from the ground up
- Completely new powertrain, 1.6 engine has been redesigned with major upgrades including continuously variable valve timing, 2 fuel injectors per cylinder, addition of piston cooling jets etc
- Completely new CVT transmission, Nissan first roll-out of the next-gen CVT with the addition of an external planetary gear set

Check out all the details here, this should be on sale within a matter of weeks:

I saw this on the NicoClub front page. It looks... Nice! Kind of skimmed it thought, so no plans for a hatchback redesign? Thanks for posting this.

Looks a little better than the most recent model, also a great engine swap for us!

It will probably be a while before we get that redesigned model here in the states. The new sedan looks A LOT better though. It actually looks like they tried to design it and not take a hatch and cut out a trunk. We've got a white one here at the dealership that just got loaded up with accessories and it's pretty nice actually.
