2012 Nissan NV Cargo Review

This car review is specific to this model, not the actual vehicle for sale.

The Nissan NV Cargo Van debuts in 2012, introducing the Nissan Commercial Vehicles brand to North America. It represents a new alternative for those seeking a versatile work vehicle. Along with rugged body-on-frame construction and a comfortable front cabin area, it offers two roof heights, a sliding side door, full rear access, flexible storage and workspace solutions and over 300 cubic feet of available cargo capacity to meet commercial needs. The two-passenger rear-wheel drive NV Cargo NV1500 is available in two trim levels - S and SV. Power is provided by a 261-hp 4.0-liter V6 engine, paired with a five-speed automatic transmission. Standard equipment on the S grade includes 17-inch wheels, durable cloth upholstery, air conditioning and a CD player, while the SV grade adds chrome exterior elements, power mirrors and front windows, a power driver's seat, cruise control, remote keyless entry, rear parking sensors and a security alarm system. Available options include: a Tow Package with up to 9,500 pounds of hauling ability, a Rear Door Glass Package, and a Technology Package that incorporates Bluetooth wireless connectivity, a USB port, satellite radio and a navigation system with rearview monitor. The Nissan NV Cargo NV1500 is all-new for 2012.
