2014 Nissan NV200 Overview, Reviews, Ratings & Specs

I bought it 3 months ago with 70k on it It’s been a decent little van to get the job done as a carpenter. But 3 months and 3,000 miles later I’m realizing how cheaply made it is. No issues with the motion/drive train parts but all the little things are breaking/ out of alignment Pros: -seems like a well made, reliable motor and drive train. We’ll see. -comfortable seat. - good amount of cargo space. Passenger seat fold down and can then accommodate a few pieces 10’ material. - got it for a good price for the mileage and im confident the mechanical aspects will last a while. - all the doors have gotten out of a alignment/won’t shut properly -the door locks love to jam in the the locked position making them unable to shut. -the gas cap is made of beer can metal and is super flimsy. Mine has a whole routine of getting it to open. -already have torn through 2 armrests on the drivers seat -the material on the steering wheel wears off leaving black rubber dust everywhere. - 0 insulation in a steel box (yes I know it’s a cargo van) along with an incredibly weak/loud heating system makes it an ice box. Takes about an hour of driving before the cabin hits a comfortable temp. - Super curvy design and poor mounting points on the interior makes it incredibly difficult to build-out shelves/cabinetry/platform ext. -absolutely terrible in the snow. Even with new tires (they don’t make studded snows for this vehicle) - the fenders/attachment brackets snap at the smallest touch. - rust pitting is happening fast on the roof - it’s the ugliest car in existence (yes, I bought it but also, you just don’t get used to it) - got it for a good price for the mileage but I’m pretty sure the bells and whistles/cheaply made body/ interior parts are going to slowly ruin its value.

This van is a pleasure to drive, though it could have more power. So much space inside, easy to load/unload with low floor, dual sliding doors and fold away back doors! Feature packed for a work van; mine had navigation, bluetooth, steering wheel controls, keyless entry, alarm, xm radio and power everything! Great little van for a very affordable price.

I down sized from a much larger van. It's reliable and descent gas mileage. Issues: In very cold winters (15 to minus ???) the transmission will not shift out of first untill throughly warmed up, about 10 minutes. High wind warnings on highway (it's a light weight vehicle). Interior cab can take a while before it warms up. Original tires are very loud, swapped to 4 snow tires last winter and haven't taken them off yet (much quieter) and much better in snow. It can't hold as much equipment as previous vehicle (length of rear cargo bay) but is workable (roof racks highly recommened). Get's the job done!!

We use this vehicle for Commercial cleaning and haul about 1000 lbs of equipment to do our work. So far 17K miles The van has performed VERY well. The 3 doors in the cargo area make access to tools easy and while we do not use any cargo bins the ability to add them is still there if needed. As far as the roof mounted cargo racks make sure to explain to your guys the ladder needs to be lifted off the back the doors extend well behind the rear rack and the ladder will scratch yup the top of the doors if you allow them to lean the ladder to load it or remove it. Interior is good but...they need to fix the cup holders they are WAYYY too low and forward and makes getting your drink a pain. Also the door window is high and makes using a drive up ATM somewhat of a planning exercise. So far the van hasd had no tire issues and I have no idea what the first poster is talking about as there are no less than 5 tire manufacturers making commercial high ply tires for this van. As far as fuel economy it has replaced a E-250 van ( with much less equipment) and has almost covered its car payment in fuel savings. That said the 10 gallon tank means you are looking for a gas station at about 250 miles so plan accordingly if you are using it for long trips. I would reccomend this vehicle for commercial use.

Very Disappointed on June 30, 2015

Major issues with tires and wear. This vehicle does not stand up to commercial use for my company. Tires wear out every 6 months, tires roar and make loud noises. Only 1 brand of tires available which the dealer sells of course. Very dangerous, I feel like I am in a danger trap, swerving, difficulties steering. Have owned this van for 14 months, extremely dissatisfied with the vehicle. Nissan is not willing to fix this problem so I'm stuck with a new van that doesn't stand up to the claims the dealer made with me when I purchased it. This is not a durable commercial vehicle, I regret this purchase highly and I'm stuck with it and it's problems. It's a danger trap that Nissan is not willing to improve or admit to. Don't buy this problem, you will regret it. Buy a real commercial vehicle, this one is a headache!

Happy Camper on November 4, 2014

I Had an Altima which I loved, but I needed a van to carry large things with out needing to lift them. I saw a transit van and went to look but the seats were not comfortable enough for me to travel in. So I checked to see what other small vans were for sale and found that Nissan had one called the NV200. My van has no back window but that does not matter because the mirrors and the backup camera do a great job it is easier to handle than the car and gets the best mileage for its class. The seats are made of the NASA material in the TV ads just like the car with all the good adjusters and I could drive for hours in comfort. it has blue tooth for the phone and an excellent independent NAV system so you don't run your phone down trying to find your destination, it will take input from devices has sirus if you want it and speakers in the back to deepen the sound it stayed remarkably cool in the summertime. I am a happy camper only thing I would change is to push the camera button when I am moving forward to see directly behind me. like glancing at a rear view mirror

Working class driver on October 25, 2014

Pleased with van so far, owned several vans so I feel I can compare with experience. Have only had it a short time. It performs very well and exceeds general performance for a cargo van. The coupling of the cvt along with the transversely mounted engine directly over the front wheels seems to give more than enough traction. Although it only has 131 hp there's plenty of pep. It's as simple as driving a golf cart. So far only 1300 miles but happy going from Santa Fe to Taos and all over mountainous terrain, the cvt takes away all up and down shifting, no strain noticed.

FIRST NISSAN I HAVE OWNED. ONLY HAVE ABOUT A THOUSAND MILES ON THE NEW NV200 SO IT IS A LITTLE EARLY TO KNOW MUCH. SO FAR, SO GOOD.
