The 2017 Nissan NV200 is a quick, reliable and lively vehicle. It is compact and fast – making it easy to operate in tight spaces and city streets, whilst still having ample cargo space. The 2017 NV200 is an excellent middle ground from the often too large vans or pick-ups. Additionally, the NV200 is fuel-efficient, compact and reasonably priced.
The Nissan NV200 is built with some of Nissan’s best compact car concepts. This means it has great manoeuvrability, easy handling and a tight turning diameter, as well as well-designed, compact dimensions – which permits parking in smaller spaces. Some appreciated features of the NV200 include a spacious 3474.4771-liter cargo-hold, full-cover rims, chrome grille, colour mirrors and bumper and a range of great additional features to suit the needs of small-business owners. The dual-sliding side doors provide access to the cargo space from both sides. The rear doors are French-style and are designed to facilitate easy loading and off-loading. The NV200 reportedly has a payload of almost 700kg.
The 2017 NV200 has six airbags – anterior, side and curtain, four-wheel anti-lock brakes and stability control.
Driving the NV200 is much the same overall experience as with driving a regular car, except you have a large cargo box too. A few appreciated skills of the NV200 include the accurate, yet easy steering and the excellent suspension, which eliminates the usual discord experienced with other truck-like labour vans when driving over bumps and uneven roads. The interior is practical, functional and tough, whereas the exterior boasts a compact footprint and is actually smaller than various SUV crossovers. Under the hood – the NV200’s engine kicks up 188 Nm of torque and delivers smooth and easy acceleration.
