The updated Nissan e-NV200 is finally available for order
in Japan. Offered in two distinct versions, Van and Wagon,
with the first one having a starting price of 3,954,960 Yen (US$ 36,874), and the
second starting at 4,600,800 Yen (US$ 42,895).
The biggest novelty is the addition of a 40kWh
battery pack, which provides a total range of 300 km under the
country’s JC08 standard. The battery has the same capacity as the one used in
the new Nissan Leaf, which can travel for approximately 240 km in real
life conditions.
Nissan claims that the updated eNV200 can also
operate as a mobile power storage unit thanks to the standard Power Plug, a
100V outlet that can provide electricity for tools and equipment. This can be
accessed for up to 15 hours, or 7 hours more than the previous iteration, and
is joined by the optional EV Power Station, which can supply power to offices,
shops or homes during blackouts and emergencies.
All models get dusk-sensing headlamps, and the
Van (bar Route Van) comes with standard UV-cut insulated privacy glass. There’s
a new exterior color called Excellent Blue, and the NissanConnect infotainment
is also available, with DVD playback function, music box, navigation and
finger-gesture operation.
Deliveries of the refreshed Nissan e-NV200 in Japan
will commence in December.
