nissan e-nv200 electric minivan concept


the 'e-nv200' near-future concept vehicle by nissan


debuted at the detroit auto show 2012 as a near-future production concept, the e-nv200 by nissan
is an all-electric version of the company's nv200 multiuse minivan.

the car is designed to support a driving range similar to nissan's electric 'leaf', featuring a similar zero-emission drivetrain
composed of a 48-module lithium-ion battery and 80kW synchronous motor, engineered to deliver 100% of its torque
immediately for instant response.

the 4-door vehicle's exterior includes large glass roof panels. its charging port is located behind a small panel
on the vehicle's hood. inside, the dashboard features a flat central touch display and LCD instrument panel.
the car seats five, and the three rear seats can be folded towards the front of the vehicle to increase cargo space.



front and side view


prototype electric vans similar to the e-NV200 are currently in beta testing in london, in conjunction with fedex.
the vehicle is designed for versatile family use as well as potentially in the commercial sector. the combustion-engine
nv200, off of which the van's design is based, is to be the official taxi of new york city beginning in 2013
through the 'taxi of tomorrow' project.

Wow I can't wait for this to arrive on the market! Small business will gobble this up! I run my business vehicle on LPG and as far as I'm concerned, the greedy fuel companies have removed the cost benefits of LPG, so I'm done with that and I'm now eagerly awaiting electric vehicles (especially for business use!). Hurry up Nissan! Free us from those disgusting oil companies!
