Introduction of vehicle series
Versa is a two-compartment car. From the side, Versa’s line is softer, the two-compartment without the tail is more exquisite, the tail line is more smooth, the triangle window on the side of the C-pillar is trapezoidal, with the feeling of downward contraction, making the tail produce a sinking visual effect, and the body is more stable. The reasonable shape design makes the Versa’s wind resistance coefficient reach 0.297, which is smaller than the Versa’s 0.314.
The Versa has a 2,700mm wheelbase and is 89mm longer than the Golf. The length/width/height is 4205mm/1695mm/1540mm, which is not very large in the car of the same level, but the space from the front seat to the head reaches 960mm, and the rear seat space is slightly smaller, and it also reaches 940mm. The Versa’s front row is 70mm higher than the golf. The Versa also has the largest front and rear legroom in its class, and both front and rear passengers enjoy plenty of legroom when sitting in the Versa. But the inner width of the front and back of the golf is 1430/1410mm, both 40mm wider than the Versa. At 40mm, the Versa is only two knuckles long, but with three people in the back seat, the Versa is significantly more crowded than the Golf. As with Eida, the problem of interference between the handbrake and the front center armrest still exists.
Versa’s interior is relatively wide, but the trunk space is not very large. The Versa has only 289 liters of trunk space, compared to 330 liters for the Golf. The Versa sacrificed trunk space for the pursuit of legroom, and although the back seat of the Versa can reach 463l when the back seat is moved forward, the back seat cannot be seated when the back seat is moved forward.
Unlike the Versa, the interior comes in two colors: black and light. The black interior is more sporty and more suitable for young people.
The Versa uses the same engine as the Versa, with no changes in power performance. The Versa is equipped with the hr16de, a new engine jointly developed by Nissan and Renault, and China is the first user of this new engine in the world. The in-line 4-cylinder engine uses dohc dual overhead camshaft construction with cvtc (Continuously variable valve Timing Control) technology. It can control the camshaft phase of the intake and exhaust according to the driving state of the vehicle to ensure the best ignition time, thereby greatly improving the output torque and fuel economy, and the fuel consumption is only 5.6l/100km, which is 20% less than the engine with the same displacement. At the same time, the aviation lightweight aluminum alloy manufacturing technology is used to reduce the weight of nearly 30% compared with the same engine, so that the 1.6l engine torque (153n.m/4400rpm), output power (80kw/6000rpm), fuel consumption (5.6l/100km) three have a higher technical level. Its matching 4-speed automatic transmission, although not advanced in its class, can reduce the driver’s labor intensity and is also a manifestation of the comfort selling point.
Because the Versa has a smaller wind drag coefficient than the Versa, the same engine has better dynamic performance than the Versa. The Versa’s start speed was fast, the gear shift was smooth and the throttle response was fast. However, in the actual test, the fuel consumption is generally between 8 and 9, although not too high, but compared with the 5.6l/100km marked by the manufacturer, there is a lot of difference.
Although the Versa’s sunroof area is slightly larger than that of the Octavia, it is the smallest of the several models that can be opened in the standard way, namely the air exchange state and the full open state, which can be opened with one click.
The new Versa has a wheelbase of 2700mm and more open space.
■ Power
In terms of power performance, the Versa 100km theoretical fuel consumption is only 5.6 liters. Although it is not very abundant in terms of power, its smooth driving performance and ultra-low fuel consumption can be called the model of an intermediate hatchback. HRV still appears to be somewhat “meat” in terms of power performance, but as a “common disease” of American cars, HRV still can’t get rid of the “characteristics” of relatively high fuel consumption. The “strong” power performance can be said to be the biggest highlight of the hatchback Fox. The 5-speed manual transmission allows the driver to carry out frequent shifts without feeling tired, but the shortage is that the interior noise will increase a lot at high speeds. The hatchback Elantra uses a 1.6L4DOCHCVVT engine, which is a small highlight, and the power performance is not outstanding. It is worth mentioning that the automatic transmission has memory and adjustment functions, which can be stored and optimized for speed changes according to the driver’s driving habits.
■ Appearance
The hatchback “shows” its true colors
Since the cooperation with France Renault, the appearance of Nissan models also reflects a more artistic romantic atmosphere, which is not difficult to see from the Dongfeng Nissan’s continuous launch of Xuanyi, Versa, Junyi and other models. In particular, the Versa’s sleek, sporty lines and stylish design style, strong tail shape and exaggerated large area diamond-shaped taillights bring this flavor into full play. However, everything has two sides, and the design of individuality also makes some “moderate” consumers discouraged. In terms of body size, the Versa is similar to the other car in the same class, but the interior is so spacious that crossing the legs in the back is not a problem. HRV tail shape is one of the highlights, its line outline and the combination of taillights, so that the vehicle shape smooth and powerful, full of dynamic vitality without losing a stable atmosphere.
In terms of body design, the rear hatchback of the Fox hatchback is its biggest highlight, and the taillight group distributed on both sides of the rear window and the high spoiler match is very inspiring. Compared with Versa and HRV, the tail design of the hatchback Fox is more sharp, and the design of each part is more concise. In terms of the vehicle, the Fox hatchback has distinct sports characteristics. The hatchback Elantra is based on the appearance of the hatchback, the front face horizontal air intake grille, the new wheel shape and the use of polygonal design of the rear triangle window, and the addition of the tail fin enhance its sporty atmosphere. However, from the overall appearance, although the revised hatchback Elantra is more fashionable and sporty than the hatchback, the hatchback Elantra still appears to have some “moderation”.
■ Safety
In addition to the basic configuration of ABS, EBD, BA brake assist system, dual airbags, etc., the 07 Versa also configured the “intelligent reverse radar system” and the “intelligent intelligence internal rearview mirror” information security system, creating a safer driving environment. The HRV’s braking system is an exact copy of the Hyatt. The 15-inch star-shaped 12 aluminum alloy wheels not only have a dynamic appearance, but also provide a better heat dissipation effect for the brake disc, and the rigidity of the Korean American-made body is also very good. The rear high-brightness warning light of the hatchback Focus can be said to be a highlight of the car. In addition, it is also equipped with front and rear bumper anti-collision beams, anti-collision reinforcement beams between pillars, four high-rigidity diagonal anti-collision steel beams, and all-round astern radar. The hatchback Elantra is equipped with smart dual airbags, enhanced safety body, side anti-collision beams and energy-absorbing materials filled in the body to improve the passive safety performance of the hatchback Elantra. In addition, the automatic release system of the collision door lock ensures that the occupants of the car can leave safely after the collision.
Car interior
Keyless activation system
In addition to space and fuel consumption, the interior design of the Versa is also excellent, with a dark interior seat that is wide and comfortable, soft and elastic, and can clearly feel the seat wrap supporting the passenger’s body when it is inside. Like the seat, the interior and other parts of the Versa’s body are covered with a soft, low-elastic material that gives the car a comfortable feel and body feel, which is rare in its class. The central console is simple and clear, and the operation is very fast; Circular controls reduce excessive menu operations, and less operating time improves safe driving. Versa’s configuration is equally exciting.
The one-button start system and the I-Key smart remote control key (the I-KEY smart key system was once only used in premium cars, but the Versa became the first hatchback to use a keyless start system in China).
* Intelligent remote key, just touch the door handle to unlock/lock, convenient and easy.
The security system has various configurations
The safety system of the whole car is rich in configuration, ABS anti-lock brake system +EBD electronic brake force distribution system, BA brake assist system, rear windshield with wiper, high brightness high brake light and other active safety systems are standard configuration. The passive safety equipment provides more safety protection for the driver, and on the basis of the standard SRS dual airbags, the large curtain auxiliary airbag, the driver’s seat limited force type two-way pre-tension seat belt, and the assistant seat limited force type pre-tension seat belt are added.
Full power and easy control
Like the Versa, it’s powered by a new 1.6lHR 16DE all-aluminum engine with a maximum power of 80kW and a maximum torque of 153Nm at 4,400rpm. This is an engine jointly developed by Nissan and Renault, equipped with Nissan’s patented CVTC continuously variable valve timing control system, which can control the camshaft phase of the inlet and exhaust according to the vehicle’s driving state, so as to ensure the best ignition time, thereby greatly improving the output torque and fuel economy. Due to the use of aviation lightweight aluminum alloy manufacturing technology, the HR16DE is nearly 30% lighter than the same engine, which not only helps the vehicle acceleration and braking, but also reduces the excess fuel consumption caused by the engine’s own load to a certain extent.
In the actual test drive, the ignition switch was twisted to start the engine, the interior noise was slight, and the steering wheel did not shake significantly.
