Drivers looking to spend used car prices for a car that offers one of the lowest overall ownership costs available often gravitate toward the Nissan Versa.  And for good reason: it provides far more comfort and interior space than you might think. It has, in fact, been roomier than many of the other subcompacts competing in the segment (i.e., the Yaris, Fit, Fiesta, Aveo, and forthcoming Sonic).

The Nissan Leaf is still only available in a few US markets. It's the first 100% electric vehicles Nissan has announced, but more are expected in coming years - especially if sales of Leaf continue to impress the powers that be at the Japanese auto maker.
