You might be forgiven for not even knowing that Nissan made a really large van. Partly because the last generation version of the model it sold couldn't decide over its lifetime whether it wanted to be called 'NV400' or 'Interstar'. It's 'Interstar' now and, like all other Nissan LCVs, is Renault-based, in this case created around the engineering of the fourth generation Renault Master. Which means it's a cutting-edge commercial product based around a platform that can accommodate three power sources - diesel, electric and hydrogen. Whatever your choice of variant, Nissan claims it will be able to go further, carry more and cost less than its predecessor. Well, cost less to run anyway. The Japanese brand reckons it's 'the ultimate ally for essential businesses that keep society running', but every large LCV in the segment claims to be that. Why might your company want this one? Let's take a closer look.
From being segment also-ran, the Interstar in this form transforms itself into a large van contender businesses shouldn't ignore. Obviously, being able to offer a full-EV option for the first time will be key for this Nissan's prospects, but the diesel versions too are now more credible alternatives to the usual class choices. As before, it's certainly true that all the same design and engineering can be yours in this model's Renault Master clone. But if the deal on offer and the convenience of your local Nissan franchise swings you this Interstar's way, there's lots to like here. As expected, the diesel engine line-up is much the same as with this Nissan's predecessor, but it would have been nice to see a PHEV option for those undecided about the switch to electric. If you are going the full-EV route, the Interstar-e's decently sized 87kWh battery delivers a very usable proposition. Like its Renault cousin, to look at and to sit in, this Nissan now feels like an LCV product of this century's third decade rather than its second. And the result is a thoroughly rejuvenated product. It'll be interesting to see how the market takes to it.
