Due to its decision to pull out of the Detroit auto show in January 2009, Nissan decided to take the wraps off the NV2500 light commercial concept vehicle today, at a media event at its Nissan Technical Center North America's (NTCNA) Michigan headquarters. Billed as one of the largest concept vehicles that the company has ever produced, the NV2500 Concept's role is to provide a preview of Nissan's entry into the CV market in North America.
In this particular configuration, the NV2500 Concept is designed for construction use. The light commercial vehicle's highlights include a "wall-less" mobile office/workspace design with a computer workstation, fold-down conference table, numerous storage compartments, cargo/tool tie-down racks, nearly six feet of interior height and an awning-style side panel that opens to create a standing outside workshop table.
Built on a modified Nissan Titan full-size pickup all-steel, fully boxed ladder frame, the NV2500 Concept has a 147.6-inch (12.3-foot)) wheelbase and measures a full 19.5 feet bumper-to-bumper. It stands 8 feet tall and is 6.6 feet wide. Inside, from the front of the passenger compartment to rear door, there is room to carry objects up to 10.5 feet long with the passenger seat moved out of the way.
Nissan will enter the CV business in the United States in 2010 with a product lineup that will incorporate three new products being developed specifically for the North American market. All of these products will be built at Nissan's manufacturing facility in Canton, Miss. where the company is investing $118 million to expand the plant's production capability.
