Salut, bonami2!
I did drive a Nissan Versa 1.6l with probably the ((((cvt tranny ))).
I want to know if anyone had any experience or know if a cvt is sluggish vs a Manual one.
You haven't tried the Micra yet? Je pense que tu l'aimerais, compared to the Versa CVT. The Micra manual is much more responsive (manual is my preference). Even the Micra's conventional 4-speed automatic is more responsive than a CVT.
A CVT is better at saving fuel than a conventional automatic, and it cruises at a nice, relaxed RPM on the highway. But some people don't like the way the CVT drives (like a snowmobile or motorboat). Would you choose a manual or automatic?
