Is there a brand new vehicle less expensive than the Nissan Versa?

He posted "brand new vehicle". The Mirage was cancelled after 2024... Any "new" ones left are 2 years old

Yeah idc if it's new old stock like a 2023 even would be fine as long as it isn't preowned

I mean, it depends on the way you look at it. I’d assume a decent bit haven’t been sold to their first owner yet. So by that logic, you’re buying a new car.

Which market? In China there are so many good car options that’s cheaper than a Nissan

Cheapest new car in the US is the Hyundai Venue at around $20500, then Kia k4 and Nissan Sentra both around $23,500. The only way to get anything cheaper is to find dealer’s discounting heavily to move stagnant inventory. Nissan is known for doing that so try to look for 2025 inventory like a 2025 versa on clearance.

Here is a 2025 versa for under 18k: https://www.cars.com/vehicle/3584c3bc-9c02-472c-995c-1f029674490e/

You might be able to negotiate it down some more as these things don’t sell well.

The Mitsubishi Mirage, in theory. I say that because you'd be surprised how difficult it is to get a dealership to actually get you a base spec car. They always try to sell you what they have, and few dealers stock complete poverty spec cars. You also can't predict how many dealer charges they'll tack on.

Also it's not really a great car for the US because it's not great on highways but it can do it. You'll have to get the 5 speed manual for the cheapest price possible. Coupled with the engine's 78 ponies, this translates to the car equivalent of a scooter.

US? Brand new as in unsold yes. There's no such thing as a 2026 Versa in the US so you can't really compare it to other 26 models.
