Nissan Announces 2012 NV Commercial Van Lineup Pricing

Nissan North America Inc. will launch its 2012 Nissan NV, the company's first entry into the U.S. commercial vehicle market, in spring 2011.

The 2012 NV starts at $24,590 and will be produced at Nissan's Canton, Miss. assembly facility. The new vehicle will be available through select Nissan Commercial Vehicle dealers.

The NV lineup offers durable body-on-frame construction and choice of standard roof or high roof configurations. Models include the NV1500 with standard 4.0-liter V6 engine, the NV2500 HD with a choice of 4.0-liter V6 or 5.6-liter V8 and the NV3500 HD with standard 5.6-liter V8. All 2012 NV models are equipped with a 5-speed automatic transmission and are available in two grades, the S and SV.

The NV's design combines a full-length hood with access to the engine for service and maintenance, along with large headlights and vertical grille. The broad body sides project a commercial vehicle appearance and provide ample room for company logos and advertising messages. The tall, wide doors offer easy access to the cargo area.

Inside the cab is a spacious interior with wide, supportive seating and an expansive instrument panel. The passenger seat includes a fold-down feature, providing a convenient worktable. An available lockable center console offers storage compartments and space to hold binders, hanging file folders and a laptop computer. Other storage spaces include a wide overhead console (available with high-roof models), underseat storage drawers (NV2500 HD and NV3500 HD models) and large door pockets.

The NV also provides exceptional utility, due to long, wide cargo floor, square-top wheel well housings and nearly vertical sidewalls. Along with maximizing cargo space, the sidewalls accommodate aftermarket storage systems without excessive modification. The cargo area also features a full-length inner panel to prevent cargo from denting the vehicle's outer skin (SV models). There are also multiple integrated reinforced mounting points for durable installation of cargo customization equipment.
