These are all CVT. The names just denote different trim levels. Unless the engine is the DIG-S the car struggles just to get along and the three-cylinder 1.2 DIG-S is anyway nothing like as good as the four-cylinder 1.2 DIG-T fitted to the Qashqai.

Here's a test of the car with a manual transmission: www.honestjohn.co.uk/road-tests/nissan/nissan-note.../ Even though it will be replaced this year, the Honda Jazz 1.4iVTEC CVT-7 is better.
