Nissan Versa – Best New Small Car: Roomy, comfortable, constructed with quality components and able to provide a smooth ride, the Nissan Versa is our pick for best small car of 2007. It’s got personality thanks to unique design, and it’s got spunk courtesy of a spirited four-cylinder engine. Add the versa-tility of a hatchback and the ability to outfit a Versa with upscale components like keyless ignition and a rocking Rockford Fosgate audio system, and small doesn’t necessarily mean cheap.
