After years of merely purchasing hybrid technology from Toyota, Nissan is now introducing its own compact hybrid. Watch the 2017 Nissan Versa Note hybrid e-POWER. Utilizing a 1.2 liter gas three-cylinder as a generator for its electric battery, the brand-new Versa Note series hybrid benefits 87.4 MPG.
