THE BEST OF THE BEST: Nissan e-NV200

 Take the finest elements from two award-winning vehicles, add some Nissan know-how and the result is a genuine game-changer.

• e-NV200 brings Nissan’s global EV leadership into the LCV market
• e-NV200 combines class-leading cargo volume with…
• … award winning zero-emission technology…
• … 40% lower servicing costs and up to four times cheaper to fuel than diesel vehicles
• … and results in a practical and sustainable city delivery vehicle

Highlights include:

• Vibration-free, emission-free, noise-free drivetrain
• Practical 170 km range, 120 km/h maximum speed
• Built in Europe, available as LCV or five-seat passenger car

 Nissan’s zero-emission revolution is entering its next important phase with the launch of e-NV200, the company’s second 100 percent electric vehicle.

Launched at a time when air quality in city centres is taking on even greater significance, e-NV200 promises emission-free running thanks to its advanced battery-powered electric motor. As a commercial vehicle the e-NV200 promises to take on an even greater role in reducing emissions and improving air quality as it operates day and night with van and taxi fleets in city centres.

 As well as producing no tail-pipe pollution at all – and thus having a hugely positive effect on city centre NOx levels – e-NV200’s electric motor produces no noise while its smooth, gear-change-free drivetrain means a less stressed, more relaxed and therefore safer driver.

 The Nissan e-NV200 combines the award-winning electric drivetrain from Nissan LEAF, 2011 World Car of the Year, with the best-in-class cargo volume and practicality of the Nissan NV200, 2010 International Van of the Year.

 But e-NV200 is far more than a simple conversion of an existing conventionally powered vehicle.

Motor and battery

The Nissan e-NV200 is powered by the acclaimed Nissan-developed high response AC synchronous motor from Nissan LEAF. Developing 80kW and 254Nm of torque, it is powered by a 48 module compact lithium-ion battery pack.

Battery cells are made by Nissan in the UK and then shipped to Spain where they are assembled into a bespoke battery pack designed to fit beneath the vehicle floor so as not to encroach on cargo space.
