NAN said the vehicle has been designed as a “solution to the needs of today’s commercial van customers.” The company noted that each NV model is offered in two “grades,” S and SV, and that each delivers “smart functionality through a combination of the comfort and roominess of a pickup with the utility of a cargo van.”

Other key features of the NV noted by NNA include:

  • Full access rear doors (maximum opening angle of 243 degrees)
  • Reinforced integrated cargo area mounting points for durability and ease of cargo-management system installation
  • Vertical side walls in cargo area maximize usable space
  • Water-repellant cloth seating surfaces
  • ‘Durability patch’ built into the front seat bolsters to hold up to commercial use
  • Multifunctional lockable center console offering space to hang files and store a laptop

NNA noted that the van’s “rugged, masculine design combines a full-length hood with access to the engine for service and maintenance, along with signature Nissan styling cues such as large headlights and vertical grille… broad body sides project a serious commercial vehicle appearance and provide ample room for company logos and advertising messages…. tall, wide doors offer easy access to the cargo area.”

The NV provides exceptional utility, thanks to a long, wide cargo floor, square-top wheelwell housings and nearly vertical sidewalls, stated NNA. “Along with maximizing cargo space, the sidewalls accommodate aftermarket storage systems without excessive modification,” according to the company. “The cargo area also features a full-length inner panel to prevent cargo from denting the vehicle’s outer skin (SV models)…. [and] multiple integrated reinforced mounting points for durable installation of cargo customization equipment.

Inside the cab, said NNA, is a “roomy comfortable interior with wide, supportive seating and an expansive instrument panel….passenger seat includes a segment-exclusive fold-down feature, providing a convenient worktable… available lockable center console offers innovative storage compartments and space to hold binders, hanging file folders and a laptop computer.”
