Nissan Tiida

The Nissan Tiida is a subcompact car manufactured by Nissan, replacing both the long-running Pulsar and the Sunny models in its home market as of September 30, 2004. The Tiida is not based on the Nissan C platform like the Renault Mégane, but rather the Nissan B platform with the wheelbase stretched.

Its styling was previewed with the Nissan C-Note show car a year before its launch. The models are characterized by being quite tall, a trend that resurfaced in the late 1990s. The range consists of a five-door hatchback and a four-door sedan called the Nissan Tiida Latio.

In North America, it is called the Versa. North and Latin American models of the Tiida uses a DOHC 1.8 L gasoline engine and is assembled at Nissan's Aguascalientes, Mexico assembly plant. In China, the Tiida is produced by the Dongfeng Motor Company, a joint venture between Nissan and a local company.
