If you have an automatic transmission in your 2014 Nissan Versa Note, then you cannot flat tow it. You would need to use a tow dolly like the Roadmaster Tow Dolly with Electric Brakes - 4,250 lbs # RM-2050-1.
If you have the manual transmission, then the Roadmaster EZ5 Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms # RM-52357-5 are a great start. I recommend using the Roadmaster Falcon 2 Tow Bar - Motorhome Mount - 2" Hitch - 6,000 lbs # RM-520 to connect your base plates to your motorhome. You will not use the crossbar with the EZ5 baseplates. You will also need the safety cables # RM-643.
For your tow bar wiring, I recommend the Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit # RM-15267. This kit will use diodes to utilize your factory wiring in your vehicle while protecting it and give you a clean connection on the front of your vehicle using the mount on your base plates.
For your supplemental braking system, I recommend the SMI Stay-IN-Play DUO Supplemental Braking System - Proportional # SM99251. This system is a plug and play system after the initial installation. It is one of our installation team's favorites because of its reliability and ease of use for the end user.
The final thing you will need for your system is a high-low adapter. I've attached an article to help you determine your need and linked the page to your options to make it convenient. This will help your tow bar and baseplates to be at the appropriate height for best function.
