The price difference between the Kicks and the Versa sedan is considerable, yet consumers visiting Nissan showrooms are only interested in the pocket-sized crossover. That’S just where the customers are these days, and it’s almost a social faux-pas to be seen in a car, especially a small one.

In fact, customers are so averse to the Versa sedan nowadays that Nissan, like Kia with its Rio, didn't see fit to raise the entry price of its most affordable car for 2022. A bargain last year remains a bargain this year.
