I have to admit I really like the styling of the new Versa. But the roominess of my 2011 hatchback can't be beat-It's truly amazing! It is entirely the reason I choose a Versa.
I really wish my car had a height adjustable seat...And I was hoping the manual shift would improve a little with the miles...But after 5000 the shift quality is pretty bad.
And it cold wheather it is has quite a few rattles.
 
But the sheer roominess in such a small car far outweighs the negatives....I'm really happy with it si far..six months in.

It's not that I really dislike the new style, but I'm not in the group that disliked the old style either, well, I didn't like the look of the sedan. I'll be interested to see what the hatch will look like

If the 2012 hatch turns out to look like this Tiida design, I would count me as a LIKE

How do you turn this thing on, and is there a second windshield washer fluid tank for the rear window?

No second washer fluid tank. Instead of pulling the stalk back to spray the windshield, push it forward to send washer fluid to the rear window.

The fluid runs down in a stream, and it ends up all over the back trunk on the hatchback. There is no sprayer nozzle on the windshield washer dispenser..... How could Nissan be so cheap????

It's a rear window. The wind stream is working against you when it comes to keeping a spray on the window.

Wind works against the front windshield as well, so the point about wind stream working against us with respect tot he rear windshield is mute.... there are spray nozzles for the delivery of the front windshield wiper fluid....It should therefore be the same for the rear window on the hatch.
 
Pretend that you are at the curb, and that there is no wind.... the fluid still runs down the back of the hatch, and the rear window does not get cleaned.
 
Therefore I hold with my point that Nissan was cheap....

When you operate the rear washer, the rear wiper starts immediately. I made sure to try this on both my 2007 and 2011. So the rear window gets cleaned... every time. Yes, some fluid does go down the hatch as the wiper wipes it off the rear window, and I imagine the same thing would happen with a spray.
