Nissan Note for sale in Kenya

About the Nissan Note

The Nissan Note supermini/subcompact hatchback, referred to as the Versa Note in other markets, was introduced in 2004. Its first generation rapidly gained popularity when it hit the Kenyan used car market because of its affordability, practicality, and high fuel economy. That popularity grew even more when its improved second generation models hit in 2012. The Note is ideal for urban travel, and makes an excellent daily driver or point A to point B car. In recent years, the Note has also become a favorite among taxi drivers in Nairobi and other major towns in Kenya.

How spacious is the Nissan Note?

The 2^nd-generation Note models look deceptively small on the outside, but offer a surprisingly roomy cabin with plenty of headroom and legroom in both rows for tall adults. They are notably roomier than the 1^st-generation models, so if cabin space is important to you, those are the ones you should go after. The increased cabin space can be attributed to a slight reduction in the size of the wheelbase and clever repackaging of the fuel tank and the rear bumper, according to Nissan.
