Nissan e-NV200 Revealed

Nissan has announced that its new e-NV200 van will cost from £13,393, which is lower than expected. Nissan claims that the e-NV200 will have a fraction of running costs in comparison to a regular diesel-powered van. The e-NV200 also shows a new all-electric taxi which Nissan hopes will replace London’s classic black cabs from 2015.

The entry level e-NV200 Acenta van costs £13,393, when bought with a lease package for the battery. However, on-the-road price is £16,562.20 which also includes £8,000 UK government grant; all plug-in vans are eligible for. The electric van is exempt from the London Congestion Charge and annual road tax. The e-NV200 is also available as a five-seater ‘combi’ model, which qualifies for a £5,000 electric car grant.

Nissan claims that the e-NV200 will cost as little as two pence per mile to run. The figures are based around a four-year ownership period covering 9,375 miles a year. It must be kept in mind that a battery rental package will set you back between £61 and £109 per month. Nissan is in the process of launching a seven-seater taxi version with zero emission London cab; the prices for this have not been announced.

 

Top of the range Tekna Rapid Plus costs £19,324 for the e-NV200 van and £26,309 for a five-seater. High spec models are also equipped with fast-charging kit which reduces the recharge time from four hours to just 30 minutes. A rear-view camera is standard along with power-folding mirrors. The e-NV200 van is based on Nissan’s Leaf hatchback which is the world’s best selling all-electric car. Nissan claims it will have a range of 105 miles with a top speed of 75 mph.
