2019 Versa Note Interior
The Versa Note boasts a mix-bag for an interior, matching cheap plastics on the dash and a simple layout with interesting dashes of color and quality on the soft surfaces, particularly on higher trims. Making the poorer quality materials bearable, solid ergonomics at least means you'll be able to avoid touching the hard plastics. In general, occupants will find enough space for short-distance travel, but the unsupportive seats and poor material quality on the entry-level model are far from comfortable, and taller drivers will find it difficult to reach controls with limited adjustment not helping the matter. It's overall an average effort, but there are rivals in the subcompact segment who bring far more to the party.

Seating and Interior Space
The Versa Note can comfortably seat five passengers, boasting a back seat that is more spacious than many larger sedans. The front seats offer 40.8 inches of headroom and 41.3 inches of legroom, while the rear seats have 38 inches and 38.3 inches available, respectively. However, the seats do lack adjustability and are constructed of low-quality materials, leaving the Note with a severe disadvantage in terms of comfort. Driver controls are also poorly placed for those of above-average height. Ingress and egress are easy at least, thanks to the large, wide-opening doors.

Interior Colors and Materials
The entry-level Note S makes do with a dull and drab interior upholstered in cheap-feeling charcoal cloth, which only looks marginally more premium than the gray plastics and faux aluminum trim spread throughout the cabin. The mid-spec SV's textured charcoal cloth is a notable step up in quality but only brings the Note on par with what other rivals offer in the segment. The top-spec SR gets a fairly premium feel to it, with seats upholstered in charcoal cloth with orange striping and contrast stitching. It feels great but is completely at odds with the cheap and nasty feel of the dashboard.
2019 Versa Note Trunk and Cargo Space
A large, spacious cargo area is one of the Versa's biggest selling points. A starting capacity of 18.8 cubic feet can be increased to 38.3 cubic feet when the rear seats are folded down in a 60/40 split, which is ideal for an extended vacation's luggage or larger items. The SV and SR trims can accommodate taller items in the trunk thanks to the Divide-N-Hide trunk floor feature, which allows the floor to be raised or lowered. This also creates an area of safe storage for valuables within the trunk.
Small-item storage is not as laudable, sadly. The glove compartment is quite large, but the front door pockets and front/rear cupholders are smaller than average.

2019 Versa Note Infotainment and Features
Features
The Versa Note doesn't offer many features as standard and is really bare-bones in comparison to other hatchbacks in the segment. What there is, is limited to a rearview camera, a trip computer, basic air conditioning, a four-way manual driver's seat, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, a 12-volt power outlet, and 60/40 split fold-down rear seats. As you move up the trims, this offering is mildly improved upon. The SV trim adds keyless entry, power accessories, cruise control, a six-way manual driver's seat, and an extra 12-volt power outlet. Keyless ignition, a Z-inspired leather-wrapped steering wheel, and an immobilizer are made standard with the SR trim.
Infotainment
The infotainment offering on the Versa Note is also rather limited and sub-par in terms of quality. The base S trim comes equipped with a seven-inch touchscreen display, Siri Eyes Free, Bluetooth calling and audio streaming, a USB port, and AM/FM radio with a four-speaker sound system, and an auxiliary audio jack. Nothing extra is added as standard on the SV trim, although many of the features available on the SR can be equipped to the SV by adding the Special Edition Package. The features added with the SV trim comprise the NissanConnect touchscreen display, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, as well as SiriusXM, which brings the infotainment in line with the segment standard. An optional Rockford Fosgate sound system improves audio quality and adds two subwoofers installed in the trunk of the Note.
