The Nissan Versa is a compact sedan that offers excellent value, fuel efficiency, and strong safety ratings. This small sedan is a standout in its class with a well-equipped cabin, room for five adults, and robust technology, including a long list of standard and available safety features. Here's a closer look at what you'll get with the 2024 Nissan Versa to help keep you safe on Tracy roads.
The Comprehensive Suite of Safety Features in the 2024 Nissan Versa
The long list of safety systems that are either standard or available on the 2024 Nissan Versa includes both active driver-assist systems and passive features that work behind the scenes to keep you safe. The latest Versa has more safety technologies, including Nissan Safety Shield 360, than other sedans in its class.
Advanced Driver-Assist Systems
Safety features on the 2024 Nissan Versa include everything in the Nissan Safety Shield 360 suite. This bundle protects the Versa on all sides with a variety of technologies.
Automatic Emergency Braking With Pedestrian Detection
The automatic emergency braking system with pedestrian detection will provide the driver with audio and visual alerts to let them know if there is a potential collision with the vehicle in front of them. If they don't apply the brakes, the Versa will do it for them. When the Versa detects a pedestrian in a crosswalk, it will stop the car right in its tracks.
Lane Departure Warning
This system provides a warning to the driver if they are drifting too close to the edge of their lane of travel when the turn signal is not activated.
Rear Automatic Braking
Rear automatic braking uses cameras at the rear of the vehicle to detect stationary objects that the driver might miss. It will send an audio and visual alert to the driver so they can stop and apply the brakes to avoid a collision.
High Beam Assist
High beam assist helps the driver see better at night by automatically switching between high and low beams when it senses oncoming traffic.
Blind-Spot Warning
The blind-spot warning system can detect a vehicle in the Versa's blind spot. It will send an audio alert to let the driver know when something is there so they don't change lanes.
Rear Cross-Traffic Alert
The rear cross-traffic alert system helps drivers back out of parking spots with more confidence by alerting them when cars approach out of their line of sight.
Rearview Monitor
The rearview monitor uses cameras mounted at the rear of the Versa to provide a view of what's behind the car. The center display screen gives the driver a crisp, clear view so they can keep an eye on what is behind them.
In addition to these standard safety systems that come with every trim level of the 2024 Nissan Versa, Nissan's intelligent cruise control system is also available. This feature uses a system of cameras and sensors to measure the distance between the Versa and the vehicle in front of it. Then, it controls the acceleration and braking to maintain a set distance from that vehicle. It will automatically adjust the distance according to the speed you and the vehicle in front of you are traveling, up to the speed you initially set.
The intelligent driver alertness system monitors the driver's steering patterns. If it detects a change, it could be an indication that the driver is getting drowsy. The system will send an alert with an audible chime and a light that looks like a coffee cup.
Passive Safety Systems
The 2024 Nissan Versa has a long list of passive Nissan safety technologies, including the Nissan advanced air bag system, which includes dual-stage supplemental air bags in the front with sensors in the seat belts. It also has side-impact air bags, knee air bags for both the driver and front-seat passenger, and roof-mounted side-impact air bags for both the front and back-seat passengers.
The Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children system for car seats comes standard in the Versa. There are two complete sets of connectors for the outboard rear seats and a tether anchor for the middle seat. The Versa also helps keep kids safe with standard child safety rear door locks to help prevent children from opening the doors, and lockout buttons for the power windows.
An anti-lock braking system comes with every Nissan Versa, along with electronic brake force distribution. The Versa also has a tire pressure monitoring system with easy fill alert. If the tire pressure is not correct, a light will appear on the driver information display. When you stop to fill the tire, the easy-fill alert system helps make sure you get the correct pressure by sounding the horn to let you know when you've reached the optimal pressure.
Safety Design Features of the 2024 Nissan Versa
Nissan designed the 2024 Versa with zone body construction. This means that it has both front and rear crumple zones to help absorb the impact in the event of a collision. This design will protect passengers from most of the impact.
It also features hood buckling creases and safety stops. This design feature controls how the hood deforms during a frontal collision to prevent it from being forced into the passenger space of the vehicle. If you're looking for a small but safe car, you can't beat the Nissan Versa.
