Compared to sedans and coupes, five-door hatchbacks like the Versa are, well, versatile. And while this little Nissan may indeed be more cargo-friendly than a Honda Civic Coupe, it has its limitations, such as a trunk opening that's a bit narrow and a low tailgate when it's raised – watch your head. The second-row split bench seatbacks don't fold flat and lack a tumble mechanism, serving to limit available space. A handy cargo cover attaches to the seatback with Velcro, making for quick and easy removal. The trunk is ample when the second-row bench is raised, but the combination of forward-angled rear glass and the reclined seatbacks may prove to be a problem when attempting to transport tall boxes. And for models with the optional Rockford-Fosgate sound system, a large subwoofer eats up valuable real estate on the left side of the cargo area.
