2026 Nissan Versa

The Nissan Versa is one of the least expensive new cars you can buy. But that might not be the case for much longer, as recent reports suggest Nissan may discontinue the Versa following the 2025 model year. We're waiting on Nissan to make things official, but if there is a 2026 Nissan Versa, expect it to be a carbon copy of the 2025. The Versa is on the small side and its acceleration is sluggish, but it's well-made and a perfectly fine car if you're looking to keep monthly payments low. 

Edmunds spotlight: Is this the end of the Nissan Versa?

The Nissan Versa has long been a great value and that value has become, well, even more valuable as other companies discontinue their small, budget-friendly sedans. There are very few new vehicles that start under $20,000 and the Versa is one of them. It doesn't spark excitement or a legion of diehard fans, but the Versa is a quality car with a low starting price and the automotive world is better with the Versa in it. 

Competitors to consider

The Versa is in a class all by itself as all automakers have given up on cheap subcompact sedans. The next least expensive cars are compact sedans, which have higher price tags but are more spacious and have nicely appointed interiors.

We'll keep you updated on whether or not Nissan will bring the Versa back for 2026.
