The 2014 Nissan Versa Note, which goes on sale this month at Nissan dealers nationwide, is more than just the fourth all-new product to appear in Nissan showrooms in recent months – following the redesigns of Altima, Pathfinder and Sentra. It is also the dynamic next-generation of the vehicle that, combined with Versa Sedan, held the entry segment sales leadership for 20 consecutive months and 38 of the last 44 months.
The dynamic new styling, interior versatility and advanced technology of the Versa Note hatchback are expected to strengthen Nissan’s leadership in this critical segment of the U.S. car market.
