All-New Nissan Versa Loads Up with Safety Technology

Nissan caused quite a surprise earlier this year when it unveiled the new, completely redesigned Nissan Versa. The Versa sedan has disappeared from Canada since 2014, and the subcompact sedan segment in general has shrunk considerably over time. Nissan still believes in it and will offer us a new Versa later this year for buyers looking for an economical, efficient and well-equipped vehicle.

One of the most surprising things about the Versa is its level of equipment, particularly its safety technologies. The new Nissan Versa offers a long list of driver assistance devices as standard or as optional equipment. For a car that wants to be affordable, the advanced technologies of the Versa are unexpected, but certainly appreciated.

Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection

The emergency braking system with pedestrian detection helps prevent accidents caused by a vehicle suddenly braking or a pedestrian crossing in front with no warning. Particularly useful in the city, these two systems allow you to navigate the urban jungle with confidence.

Intelligent Emergency Reverse Braking System

The intelligent reverse braking system will automatically apply the brakes for you if you are in reverse and an object is approaching, and you do not react. This system makes it easier to maneuver in underground garages or when backing out of your driveway.

Lane Departure Detection System

The lane departure detection system alerts the driver when the vehicle is about to veer off the lane. It is then possible to correct the trajectory before an accident occurs.

High-Beam Assist Headlights

The high beam assist headlights automatically switch from high beams to low beams when you pass another vehicle. It's a simple technology, but one that you will likely use every day.

Other technologies that stand out include a blind spot warning system and a rear cross-traffic monitoring system. These two technologies provide exemplary visibility even in situations where there is a lot of traffic or you are in a parking lot and cannot see vehicles approaching perpendicularly.
