The Nissan NV200 Van is a compact cargo van that has been in production since 2009. The 2021 model year marks the last iteration of this versatile and practical work vehicle. The NV200 offers a spacious and functional interior, making it a popular choice among small business owners, contractors, and delivery companies. In this article, we’ll take a closer look at the Nissan NV200 van and what it has to offer.

Exterior
The exterior of the Nissan NV200 van has been refreshed with a new front grille and headlights, giving it a more modern and updated look. The van is available in several colors, including Super Black, Fresh Powder, and Brilliant Silver. The body of the NV200 is aerodynamically designed to reduce wind resistance and improve fuel efficiency, and it features large cargo doors that open 180 degrees, making loading and unloading a breeze.
Interior
The interior of the Nissan NV200 van is functional and practical, with plenty of storage options and a spacious cargo area. The van has a maximum cargo volume of 122.7 cubic feet, making it ideal for transporting large items and equipment. The rear doors open wide, making it easy to load and unload cargo, and there are also tie-down points in the cargo area for securing heavy items. The driver’s seat is adjustable and comfortable, and the NV200 also comes with a 6-speaker audio system, air conditioning, and power windows and locks.
Cargo Or Passenger?
The cargo van version of the Nissan NV200 Van is designed for commercial use and features a spacious cargo area for transporting goods and materials. It can be configured with options such as a rearview camera, a navigation system, and a rear sonar system.

The passenger van version of the Nissan NV200, known as the NV200 Taxi, is designed to transport passengers and features seating for up to seven people. If you have ever been to NY City you probably have seen them all over the place. It comes with features such as an overhead storage shelf, front and rear air conditioning, and an AM/FM audio system with USB connectivity.  The Taxi drivers never grew enamored of the Nissan, complaining about bumpy rides, frequent mechanical problems, gas-guzzling engines and the vehicle’s small interior that only fits a maximum of four passengers. Bumpy ride? what do you expect from a compact cargo van….

Both the cargo and passenger versions of the Nissan NV200 are available in a variety of trim levels and with different options and packages, so you can choose the configuration that best meets your needs and budget.

Performance
The Nissan NV200 van is powered by a 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine that produces 131 horsepower and 139 lb-ft of torque. The engine is paired with an Xtronic Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) that provides smooth and responsive acceleration. The NV200 has a fuel efficiency rating of 24 mpg in the city and 26 mpg on the highway, making it an economical choice for small businesses and delivery companies. The van is also equipped with a front-wheel-drive system and a MacPherson strut front suspension and multi-link rear suspension for a smooth and comfortable ride.
Safety Features
The Nissan NV200 van is equipped with several safety features to help protect drivers and passengers. These include anti-lock brakes, traction control, stability control, and a backup camera. The van also has airbags for the driver and front passenger, as well as side-impact airbags for added protection. The Nissan Safety Shield suite of driver-assist technologies is also available on the NV200, including automatic emergency braking, lane departure warning, and blind-spot monitoring.
Warranty
Nissan’s basic warranty package on the NV200 is significantly longer than the warranties offered on the ProMaster City, Transit Connect, and Metris. Nissan, however, does not include any scheduled maintenance. The NV200 Limited warranty covers five years or 100,000 miles and the Powertrain warranty covers five years or 100,000 miles
Conclusion
The Nissan NV200 van is a versatile and practical work vehicle that is perfect for small business owners, contractors, and delivery companies. With its spacious and functional interior, economical engine, and excellent fuel efficiency, the NV200 is a smart choice for anyone looking for a reliable and practical van. Since the Nissan NV is no longer in production there is extremely limited availability but you can still find some at the dealership or go to the used car market and find one. Right now you can find a used Nissan NV200 from $14,000-$25,000 depending on mileage and condition. Ford and Chevy are probably Nissan’s biggest rivals in this segment. The former boasts the Transit van that allows for configurations for cargo or passengers, too.
