Nissan NV200 Concept

A Smart Business Tool of New Generation - for Active Professionals

• A substantial, rugged-looking exterior, combining a dramatic front cab with a traditional box-like storage space, creates an emotional looking body form never before seen in the LCV class.
• An interior created to combine efficiency and a human touch, mentally refreshing its occupants when traveling to or from a job site. The customizable cargo area houses a unique pod that can smartly accommodate a variety of business needs. The pod is divided into customizable trays and boxes for efficient storage of profession-specific equipment, materials, work gear and apparel.
• The displayed NV200 has been outfitted specifically for use by a professional ocean photographer. The work area is equipped with a remote control panel for a spider camera, as well as equipment for organizing and editing photographs and images while on assignment.

Is this the end for the geriatric Vanette-badged Mazda Bongo?

I like how they integrated the headlights & grill.

[loki]

more original in execution than alot of things.

don't know if i agree with purdue guy, but it is pretty original.

other than the concept-only slide-out interior, it's a pretty standard European-style commercial van. Expect to see models made by GM and Nissan and wearing Opel, Vauxhall, Nissan and Renault badges.

I love it!

That grille is awesome. Also the integration with the lights.

The rest I could have gone without.

That could be true. But do not forget that Nissan are developing a family of Vans/Trucks based on the Global LCV Platform that underpins the Cabstar/Atlas Truck.

Having said that, would make a great Primastar replacement, but without the pod arrangement. Do not sell to many divers

Sure, it's cool in concept form, but I have a feeling it will be just another van when it hits production. The grillework and other details, the wheel/tire combo, etc., liven it up for the show. Nothing wrong with that, I guess, as I'm sure business owners are looking for something durable, economical and cheap to fix.

Much better than the Toyota concept, but wait a minute - didn't I see a GM concept van like this 35 years ago? This styling trend looks very familiar. I'll dig around my archives and see if I can find the pic, but there were cool 'future concepts' coming out of Detroit in the early '70s that looked just like this...........

[Intrepidation]

That front end is awesome...as other have said, I love the integration of the headlights with the grill...I hope that design appears in a production Nissan in the future.

Hmmm...so are GM and Nissan doing a van together? Maybe they could do one for the US...this could make an interesting Chevy or GMC..
