Nissan launches the NV250 compact van

Behind its Nissan grille, the new NV250 is essentially a badge-engineered version of the Renault Kangoo (which, incidentally, is also produced as the Mercedes-Benz Citan).

In L1 guise, the Panel Van variant combines an overall length of 4.28 metres (14’ 1”) with a payload of 650 kg (1,433 lbs). If greater capability is required, then the equivalent figures for the L2 model are 4.67 metres (15’ 4”) and 800 kg (1,763 lbs) respectively.

Two other configurations are being offered. They’re the fully-glazed, five-seat L1 Combi and the L2 Crew Cab. The latter has a maximum payload of 740 kg (1,631 lbs) and, thanks to a multi-position bulkhead, it can carry up to four people as well as some cargo.

Every NV250 is powered by a 1.5 litre turbo-diesel engine. Designed to comply with the latest Euro 6D-Temp emissions regulations, this four-cylinder unit is available with a choice of 79 bhp (59 kW / 80 PS), 88 bhp (70 kW / 95 PS) or 113 bhp (85 kW / 115 PS) outputs. Surprisingly, there’s no petrol alternative.

Deliveries are due to begin in September. Prices haven’t been announced yet, but Nissan has confirmed that the NV250 will benefit from a five year / 160,000 kilometres (99,419 miles) warranty. By comparison, Renault covers the Kangoo for three years / 100,000 miles (160,934 kilometres) and the Citan is guaranteed for three years with an unlimited mileage.

Saab 9-3 Aero Carlsson

Image
Saab has got experience of producing special editions in honour of rally driver Erik Carlsson, having previously named versions of the 900 and 9000 after him during the late 1980s and early 1990s. Now it has decided to do it again, this time to mark the fiftieth anniversary of the Swedish driver’s first win in Britain’s RAC Rally, which was achieved at the wheel of a Saab 96. Thankfully, the company has resisted the urge to just bung some fancy alloys and a few other extra bits onto something like a mid-range diesel model. Instead, it appears to have resurrected the limited edition Turbo X from a couple of years ago, as the new edition similarly features a turbocharged 2.8 litre petrol V6, Saab’s XWD all-wheel drive system and a six-speed automatic gearbox. The result is the 9-3 Aero Carlsson saloon, which turns out to be a very rapid car. With 276 bhp (205 kW / 280 PS) and a healthy 400 Nm of torque, the 0-60 mph (96 km/h) dash takes just 6.9 seconds. But it’s in the mid-range t...

American spec Fiat 500

Image
Fiat has released the first details and images of the North American specification 500. The tiny city car will be available in Pop, Lounge and Sport trim levels, and is distinguished from the European version by its more aggressive front and rear bumpers, bigger grille and flared sills. Another unique feature is the engine. Fiat has decided to use the 1.4 MultiAir unit currently found in models such as the Fiat Punto Evo and Alfa Romeo MiTo. Perhaps it felt that using the forthcoming two-cylinder TwinAir in the American 500 would have been too much for markets there to take? There’s no word yet on what power output the MultiAir will have, although in its current applications it comes with either 103 bhp (77 kW / 105 PS), 133 bhp (99 kW / 135 PS) or 167 bhp (125 kW / 170 PS). Similarly, prices have yet to be confirmed, but hopefully both details will have been sorted out by the time the order book for the 500 hatch opens later this year. For convertible fans, the 500C is due ...
