Townstar EV, successor to the hugely successful e-NV200, brings a suite of 20+ technologies to the compact van segment and features a broad range of safety systems and advanced driver assistance features, putting it at the forefront of its category.
When it comes to carrying capabilities, Townstar L1 provides up to 3.3 cubic metres of load space, equivalent to two Euro pallets. The L2 version, with its extended wheelbase, provides a generous 4.3 cubic metres complemented by a wide-opening side loading door of 831mm. In addition, the maximum braked towing capacity is 1,500kg for all van versions.
Townstar also demonstrates Nissan's commitment to providing quality and reassurance, with owners benefiting from a five-year or 100,000-mile warranty which includes roadside assistance. This is in addition to the eight-year or 100,000-mile battery warranty for the EV version.
Townstar EV boasts a cutting-edge electric powertrain that has been optimised with intelligent energy management and battery thermal cooling technology, allowing charging at up to 22kW AC, along with DC charging capabilities. This advanced system delivers a class-leading zero-emission range of up to 183 miles WLTP Combined (or up to 269 miles on the City Cycle), making it one of the most capable and versatile commercial vehicles on the market.
Francesco Russiello, LCV Category Manager at Nissan GB said: ''We couldn't be more delighted to start 2025 with another accolade for Townstar. It is a vehicle we are incredibly proud of and it is wonderful that it continues to receive the recognition it deserves.
''At Nissan, we are well aware that Townstar's advanced safety features, versatile configurations and practical capabilities suit a wide range of business operations – and it seems that the award judges at Company Car and Van feel the same way.''
Townstar is available from £21,825 and the EV variants attract up to £5,000 Plug-in Van Grant.
