The Nissan e-NV200, the carmaker’s electric-powered light commercial vehicle, has received a significant improvement. The EV’s battery is now a new 40 kWh unit, which gives the e-NV200 a 60% extended range.
The 40 kWh battery, like the one that comes with the new second-generation Leaf, allows the e-NV200 to travel up to 280 km in the European NEDC cycle. That’s over 100 km more than before on a single charge, but it’s of course less than what the smaller Leaf can achieve (378 km). Nissan says that the battery size has been maintained, which means there’s no reduction in load space.
“With its longer range and excellent cargo capacity, the new e-NV200 is the perfect last mile delivery solution for urban deliveries and collections. Given the huge impact that business deliveries/collections and professional drivers have on air quality and traffic congestion, especially in city centres, helping cut the level of CO2 emissions they create is a vital part of creating a more sustainable future, said Gareth Dunsmore, EV director of Nissan Europe.
The latest Nissan e-NV200 with the upgraded 40 kWh battery will be available to order before the end of 2017. Of more relevance to us is the new Nissan Leaf, which will be coming to Malaysia next year.

ETCM should consider bringing this to Malaysia too. Might be an alternative to small families.
Sadly, it is not up to ETCM whether to bring in new models to Malaysia. For your info, Nissan Asia Pacific is the one that makes the decision. Therefore, it is not ETCM’s fault for not selling Note, 2017 Teana, Juke, 2017 Sylphy, etc… in Malaysia
Now all over the world, car companies are not just moving into EV but already gone to a stage where they are improving on the distance of their EV
Here in Malaysia, even 10 yr old Hybrid technology also our two local car companies tak ada. Whatmore EV. EV might come only in 2050.
P1 got EV, no problemo
P2 still waiting… waiting.. waiting..ZZZZ
Design it a little bit nicer then should be sell-able in malaysia…
Electricity tariff of RM0.5 per 1 kWh, full charge = RM20 for the range of 100km. Equal to 10km/RM2 or 10km per liter of petrol.
The (claimed) range is 280km, not 100km, so your calculation overestimates the cost of electricity by 2.8. So in fact, the vehicle’s “km per cost of 1 litre of petrol” ability is 28km, not 10km.
no doubt, NV200 is nissan most successful vehicles…lol
