Zhengzhou Nissan NV200 formally introduced to marketing on Jun. 18th, 2010, the price range of 79,800-123,800 RMB, avant-garde fashion appearance is different to other van maximum highlight the concept of “CDV” is its greatest attraction. We have the first time in the car to the test vehicle NV200, first to help us look into the secret of CDV and also experience the advantages of CDV.

But before introducing NV200, it is necessary should first and everybody confessed CDV the meaning, it is actually English “Car Derived Van” the abbreviation, the international general explanation is “based on the passenger vehicle platform van vehicle”, its characteristic is both has passenger vehicle's security and comfortableness, and has the commercial vehicle shipment function. But in Europe and America and so on developed country, vehicle types and so on CDV and MPV, SUV is the same, also belongs to the big type automobile product. 

Appearance: fashionable style of car design

【 2007 Tokyo Auto Show debut of Nissan NV200 concept car】

If you are the familiar daily production vehicle type friend, that NV200 this name you should not be strange. Actually as early as at 2007 Tokyo auto show, the daily production has demonstrated a named NV200 vehicle type, but at that time was shows by the concept car status, the interior made specially for the sea photographer, designs one to do/the wet separated preserve region and other related dispositions. But suspends in front of us these two NV200, certainly will not have such disposition, but in contour aspect actually greatest degree retention concept car design element.

For example the overall forehead's design, very much has the concept car shadow, head lamp's outline is basic and the concept car is exactly the same, but the line is more gently beautiful. The middle air admission grill used has conformed to the quantity to produce vehicle's need black plastic, coordinated the following chrome-plating decoration, not only has manifested the sense of depth, increased the luxurious feeling. Because pats the vehicle disposition the reason, original Che Bing has not provided the fog lamp, this was a pity, should not shrink after all in the security aspect.

NV200 is very rich in the side of the line, which seems to be the current concept car design more icing on the cake. The front door on the contour of the paint window, and because the rates of design, front view, very good. At the back of the waist line extension by door Rails, so the entire side of the NV200 and will not give you the feeling of General van stiff, and the special design of the polylines to make it more attractive.

The tail of the NV200 is showing its van qualities--square, very convenient for you place the tail gate bulky items. Rear window with defroster and wipers in addition, there is no point in cost savings. Tail light by concept car on the double-barrel-shaped lamp evolved, however, does not seem to have become so full of tension of headlights. In order to correspond with the head, tail between similarly increased chrome trim strips. In General, NV200 physical have completely got rid of the traditional van shadow to fashionable styling shows both in functionality and does not make for the overall number of compromises, usefulness or to it.

Finally, that the length of a dimension, NV200, so only 4400mm walking in the city very easily, but at the same time you don't feel it's small, because the height of the 1847mm makes it look very big, but it also brings two advantages: one is sufficient head space, then a is spacious internal space, which will later introduce in detail.


Interior: cheap but not Lim-style highlighting the MPV

The NV200 lowest selling price only has 80,800 RMB, but when you open vehicle door's time, in plays the part of will not let you have the inexpensive feeling, instead will be the air outlet following cup frame, the files position design will also let you feel the thick MPV breath. NV200 very practical has not used in the tint to play the part, on under the depth shallow gray matching is in keeping with present's tidal current, simultaneously also dirtiest. Controls the Taiwan use clear silver decoration, this increased the sense of depth which entire in plays the part, also lets NV200 unfold its fashion one side. 

If you are the owner of a Nissan NV200 's steering wheel that will let you know best, Qashqai, X-trail are similar in shape, just above the NV200 cancelled the multifunction button. But soft materials in hand, while on a “three points” and “nine points”; and the following locations are conducive to holding design.

The gauge board is occupied by the among gigantic speed table, vehicles' basic situation indicating lamp has placed left side, right flank is the vehicles information display monitor. This thought NV200 to save the cost to cancel the ratemeter, actually this was hides in the right flank display monitor. In addition, here demonstrated the information was also rich, includes the fuel gauge, the maintenance information, to shift gears information and so on prompt, this is rare regarding a model of van vehicle, perhaps this was also CDV vehicle type one important manifests the part.

Central control console design makes clear, sound control and air conditioning control base, it also set up convenient compartments placed handset or MP3 for audio input. Rare is the overall feeling of acoustics adjustment knob in the price of cars in very good damping. However, the following more general air conditioning control, slightly broken.

The whole interior of the NV200 is a hard plastic, but work at this price point of the vehicle type is the kind of fine, each part of the seam is very uniform, while some in the upholstery of are doing the necessary modification, this reflects the work of the joint venture vehicle consistent and quality.

Space: the first row of spacious central storage box hidden organs

NV200 locates in a van vehicle, therefore the space will be its key consideration part, but rode the feeling from actual driving, NV200 had the place which many might encircle may select. Mentions first from the front row, designs very much is user-friendly in the air conditioning air outlet following drinking glass support, but lets the passenger take conveniently, meanwhile may heat up or cooling. However most has the charm should heavy middle to hold the casket, when meets more goods, you may open, the spatial use factor is high. 

“barely” glove box can fully down 10 bottles of mineral water, and the design of the front is also linked to the convenience store plastic bag. In the console, there's a bigger storage space, convenient for you place a few odds and ends. Freeway card? NV200 designers had to take account of this point, on your left and Central armrest compartment, there is a corresponding specialized storage area.

Space: During the second evacuation is similarly splendid rides comfortableness to wait for promoting 

If a van to place greater emphasis on the front of the riding experience, that shows it more goods, NV200 for second or even third row also has a thoughtful design, it also pays attention to the second-and third-row passengers travelling in comfort. First of all in the back of the front seats are designed with a small desk plate and bracket with a glass of water, so no matter if you eat in the car or Office, will be very convenient. We are testing in the car to eat a meal, or a very comfortable.
 

Space: the third row space slightly nervous have independent air conditioning
 

The third row of space may be slightly smaller, but take care to passengers but it has no slack, first of all, you can find a glass on both sides, and not hidden when you can. However most of those should be provided by an independent air conditioning evaporator system, so you even sit down in the third row also worry about air conditioning blowing in front of you, because you are have air-conditioning outlet, while their conditioning air volume size.

If you want to take the NV200 goods? again without worry, when you put all the seat folds, you can get the maximum length of a trunk 1510mm, even though you still want to sit for 5 passengers, still have space for in depth 1090mm.

Said these many NV200 advantage, it has actually writes insufficient, first is the glass design, but the second row the negative pressure type design, cannot open, because and does not have the roof louvre window, therefore passenger unavoidably somewhat oppressed feeling. Moreover the second row lacks the arm rest, comfortableness compares traditional MPV also to have the disparity. 

View: like SUV-like high sitting spacious

NV200 sitting position is relatively high, it is not thought of before editing, open up the feeling of SUV, SUV models good field of vision is also inherited NV200. NV200 seats can only be simple 4 direction adjustment to ordinary pile barrels, for example, in front of the front office to enter 2.00 m driver's blind spot, the results of line of sight. Blind spot appears in the margin to the left of the front before 3 m horizontal left 1.43 metres, thanks to A post office, small triangular window design, blindness is not significant.

Because of the front car door contour design's reason, the both sides field of vision is also open, simultaneously the big rear view mirror has also provided the good field of vision. Left side the tailstock is away from the pile tube (this distance more loudly in 1.41 meters for the visible region explained that reflector visible scope is bigger), right flank the tailstock is away from the pile barrel maximum value is 1.23 meters, surpasses when this value entered around vehicles' object not to be able to see again. 

Lighting: lamp height can be adjusted to meet the day-to-day needs

Considering the cost, using the NV200 ordinary halogen headlamps, and they were not equipped with a lens, so the height of the light can be adjusted. From the actual test results, the result is good, near light or driving to meet our daily needs. Just do not have to configure it some pity. fog lamps

Power: daily use its strengths of high speed is not

NV200 use one code-named HR16 1.6 l engine, Nissan car lines is a very common engine, but because the ID is missing “DE” in the description of the engine eliminates the continuously variable valve timing technology. This compared with continuously variable valve timing technology Nissan 1.6 l engine, maximum power of 3kw, increase reach 83kw, maximum torque is reduced to achieve 150N.m 3N.m.

Can not but say that drives NV200 in the city is very satisfied and the relaxed matter, because the first use electron boost changes the reason, changes is lithe, the back-draft or moves to the storehouse to be possible with ease to complete. The files position design controls underneath Taiwan, this is the design method which present mainstream's MPV uses, the advantage is the use is more convenient, echoes the human body engineering. The NV200 5 fast manual transmission gearbox files position is clear, shifts gears with ease, but lacks Germany is that kind of inspiration feeling which the vehicle manual keeps off, simultaneously the traveling schedule also compares is long. 

It is not, and I have the same questions, so much a car for a 1.6 l engine will feel underpowered? from the actual driving show that this concern is obviously some superfluous. First manually block allows you to shift more directly, from around-2500rpm 1500rpm speed range, powered reserves do not need to make you worry, city driving, you can use with ease. At the same time, electronic throttle or other models that delay sense, speed is very straightforward.    

What is very interesting is the NV200 two driving prompt, one is shifts gears the prompt, other one is the overspeed prompt. When the rotational speed surpasses 2200rpm, right flank the speed table's driving computer has the corresponding prompt design to appear, this explained that you should shift gears. But when the speed surpasses 90km/h, the driving computer similarly has the overspeed prompt. But this shifts gears the opportunity as well as the overspeed speed prompt may let you establish according to own driving custom, is user-friendly. 

NV200 adopted before MacPherson, after leaf-spring suspension, which explains its still considering some cargo capacity, of course, was at the expense of comfort. In city traffic in smooth driving you cannot feel it, but when it encounters potholes pavement, beating of the rear axle has become very active. 

Most afterward said the acceleration and the braking result, the NV200 hundred kilometer rise time is 12.93 seconds, the biggest G value is 0.507G, accelerates to be quite powerful, if were not the tire has been a drag on, believed that the result will also improve. 0 to the static stopping distance are 46.66 meters, if compares with the passenger vehicle, this result does not certainly calculate the ideal, investigates its reason or tire's width and the pattern. However looking from the entire braking curve, the entire braking process is steady, although braking dynamics is not big, but speaking of this kind of localization vehicle type, this result is understandable. 

Comfort: comfortable urban driving high-speed loud

NV200 the control very much has the characteristic to the noise, drives the performance in the city to be possible to let the human accept, particularly under the 60km/h speed, the result will not be worse than the common passenger vehicle. But if you go on the high speed road, you can feel the obvious engine noise and the straight A column brings the automobile body noise, the latter is on the other hand has no way to make up, but the engine noise may in increases the engine sound-insulated cotton and kapok in the situation to be improved.

Fuel consumption: total dual compressor oil consumption only 7 liters times

【 This is our test routes operated by fuel consumption】

This kind of big vehicle only uses 1.6 to make it the motive, although the power is sufficient, but can the oil consumption be very high? Our test place locus Bai-Shi Bridge embarks from Yi Chewang, the time probably is about early morning 10 o'clock, the way two links, three links, five link's high speed state of roads, as well as the final serious crowded state of roads, (around air conditioning all opens) in the entire journey air conditioning's situation, NV200 ran the 7.08L/100km good result.

However what must talk clearly with the general net friends, in chart decadent two links, three link state of roads, has not looked like such so to be usually crowded, a group stops from time to time the condition imagines us must be much better than, therefore the oil consumption should slightly be lower than actual driving. 

configuration and security: The safe configuration is not careless chooses the assemblage to be rich 
 

The lowest price only NV200 80,800 RMB (Euro IV emission standards), but our test cars for sale at the top with 12.38 Premier package, it is worth noting that all models are equipped with a driving seat airbags, ABS + EBD is also available from the standard configuration. In addition the whole car of the seven seats apart from the second row in the middle of a two-seat outside, the rest of the six seats are equipped with a three-point seat belts.
 

In order to satisfy the different customer the need, NV200 provided 3 kinds to elect to install the meal, for example “the cold region elected to install one” includes the electric heating electrically operated rear view mirror, the electric heating rear window to defrost, under the driver chair the air outlet as well as the highly effective anti-icing fluid. In addition, but also has richly chooses the assemblage, involved the outward appearance to promote, in the vehicle to imitate the peach wooden kneading board, back-draft radar as well as NAVI multimedia entertainment systems.

Summary: MINIBUS and JINBEI complex compound, is hanging is the soft rib 

Zhengzhou Nissan NV200 is followed after SUCCE, the 2rd the CDV models, as compared with the SUCCE, its appearance more fashionable interior is more like a typical MPV models. From the manufacturers of positioning, NV200 is minibus and Jinbei's comprehensive product. It is more than the minibus, a more luxurious than the JINBEI and, of course, a joint venture plant quality and more perfect.
 

But really attract everyone should be its price, the price of 8 million inhabitants make it easier to accept it, in particular to attract those who wander in the large space before and thought of consumers. However inadequacies is its leaf spring rear suspension, I wonder if this is not a Nissan vehicle for the third space left by the CDV.
