Nissan NV200 concept

Nissan has given a preview of an innovative small van concept at the Nissan Design Europe studio in London. The NV200 concept, which will have its worldwide debut at the Tokyo Motor Show in October, turns conventional light commercial design inside out, with a storage pod which extends from the van's load area when the vehicle is parked. As the pod is withdrawn from the van, the area left behind is transformed into a mobile office.

The NV200 design team, led by Martin Uhlarik, brainstormed a range of possible customers for a new van, deciding finally to focus on one of the potential users. The NV200 answers the specific needs of a professional underwater photographer with 'wet' and 'dry' storage zones in the pod for diving and camera equipment. The basic concept could be tailored to suit a wide range of customers, with pods custom-developed by suppliers to plug-in to the vehicle.
