It was first shown as the NV200 Concept at the 2007 Tokyo Motor Show. Though it is an alternative to the Vanette, it is only available as a van model. "NV" stands for New generation Vehicle, or sometimes "New Vanette" by fans.
It was launched in Japan as Nissan NV200 Vanette on May 21, 2009, and in Europe in autumn 2009.[5]. In April 2010, it was named the Professional Van and Light Truck Magazine Van of the Year 2010. In China, NV200 is built by Nissan in partnership with Dongfeng Motor, and is released in June 2010.[6] An electric vehicle based on NV200 will also be released.[7]
The NV200 was one of three finalists (alongside the Karsan V-1 and Ford Transit Connect) for New York City's Taxi of Tomorrow. The Nissan was announced as the winner in May 2011 and is expected to be awarded a 10-year contract to provide the city exclusively with some 13,000 yellow cabs, starting in 2013.[8][9] A fully electric version of the Nissan NV200 may be available by 2017 for the NYC Taxi fleet[10]. The European version with the 1.5L diesel gets 54.4 averaged mpg however the American version will be much less.[11] The American version will be built in Mexico and powered by a 2.0L gasoline engine and has been rated at 25mpg.
Since October 2011, the Vanette has also been sold as the Mitsubishi Delica D:3.[12]
