Torque in 254 Nm accessible from the first revs, which makes acceleration smooth and predictable - an important advantage for city use. Top speed is electronically limited at 122 km/h, which is quite enough for commercial vehicles.
The battery has a capacity 40 kWh (in versions before 2018 - 24 kWh) and provides WLTP range up to 270 km. Actual performance depends on driving style, temperature and load:
- 🌡️ Summer (20–25°C): up to 240–260 km combined cycle
- ❄️ Winter (–10°C): 160–180 km (including interior heating)
- 📦 Full load (500 kg): reduction in power reserve by 15–20%
- 🚗 Route (90 km/h): up to 200 km in economy mode
Charging is carried out through the connector CHAdeMO (fast, up to 80% in 30 minutes) or Type 2 (AC, 6-8 hours from household outlet). Important: e-NV200 does not support modern standards CCS Combo, which limits the choice of charging stations.
- Up to 200 km
- 200–300 km
- 300–400 km
- More than 400 km

However, there are also significant disadvantages:
- ❌ Low power reserve: Intercity travel requires careful route planning
- ❌ High cost of batteries: Battery replacement costs €8 000–12 000 (warranty - 8 years/160,000 km)
- ❌ Outdated electronics: no support for Apple CarPlay/Android Auto in basic versions
- ❌ Poor sound insulation: at speeds over 80 km/h there is noise from the wheels and aerodynamics
According to a survey among owners e-NV200 in Europe, 68% rated the model as “optimal for urban business,” but only 22% We recommended it for personal use due to its limited power reserve.
The main advantage of the e-NV200 is savings on fuel and maintenance, but only when used within a city with access to charging infrastructure.
Comparison with competitors: Renault Kangoo Z.E., Peugeot e-Partner, Citroën e-Berlingo
In the electric van segment Nissan e-NV200 competes with European models, which often surpass it in technical parameters, but lose in price on the secondary market. Let's look at the key differences:
