Buy Used Nissan Hatchback Models

Nissan hatchbacks are great little runabouts; they’re exceptionally frugal, highly practical, and have all the safety and reliability qualities that an ideal family-friendly transport should have. To top it all off, they are generally quite affordable automobiles, too.

List of Nissan Hatchback Models and Prices

What to Consider When Buying Nissan Hatchback Cars

Only a few hatchbacks cars remain, and Nissan models have to be extremely competitive to survive in this ever-shrinking segment. Most automakers only have a single model in the list of hatches they sell, and that is true for Nissan, too. However, it boasts many, if not all, of the qualities that make the automaker such a popular choice among US shoppers.

Pros

  • Competitive fuel economy
  • Easy routine drivability
  • Plenty of practicality
  • Great safety ratings
  • Top-notch reliability

Cons

  • Mundane to drive
  • Mid-grade interior quality
  • Limited selection

FAQs about Nissan Hatches

Is the Nissan Leaf a good car?

The only hatch Nissan sells is an electric vehicle that is now in its second generation and boasts more standard features than it did a decade ago. The specs include a 147 horsepower electric powertrain and a 40-kWh battery that is good for 147 miles or a 60-kWh unit that increases the range to 212 miles. Neither mileage figure is class-leading, though. The Leaf makes up for this shortcoming with an impressive amount of cargo space, even if the rear passenger room isn’t the best.

What is the price of a new Nissan hatchback?

The Leaf is the only model in the lineup, but it doesn’t cost that much. The entry-level trim starts at a little under $30,000, while even the top-tier model only asks for a mid-$30k investment.

Are Nissan hatches safe?

A small car can put one ill at ease when it comes to safety. However, like all models from the Japanese automaker, the Leaf hatch boasts some impressive safety ratings according to the NHTSA crash tests.

Will Nissan make new hatchbacks?

The automaker has already dropped the Versa hatchback and Versa Note from its line of small cars, and while it is adding electric configurations for many of its popular models, there is little enthusiasm for additional liftback vehicles from the brand.
