Nissan will unveil two new fully customized vehicles at the Tokyo Motor Show to improve city mobility: the all-electric e-NV200 Fridge Concept and the new Paramedic Concept.
The e-NV200 Fridge Concept’s compact size will make it easier to park in urban environments, where large delivery trucks are often prevented from stopping.
Equipped with an additional battery pack in the cargo space to power a refrigeration unit, the Nissan e-NV200 Fridge Concept will be able to store chilled foods.
“The e-NV200 Fridge Concept will create huge value for commercial users – generating more business, as well as reducing the cost of ownership. With zero emissions, it’ll be perfect for busy urban environments where larger vehicles are often prohibited,” said Ashwani Gupta, senior vice president of the Renault-Nissan LCV Business Unit.
Packed with new technologies and features, the new Paramedic Concept will be Nissan’s fifth-generation ambulance and builds on the success of the previous versions, which are sold exclusively in Japan. The next-generation ambulance is based on Nissan’s NV350 Caravan, providing better comfort for the patient and a better work environment for paramedics and drivers.
The ambulance also carries a lithium-ion auxiliary battery that supports life-saving medical equipment when patients are in remote areas or in need of emergency assistance. It also contributes to CO2 reduction, as well as external and internal noise reduction.
Other unique elements packed into the new ambulance include Nissan’s industry-leading Intelligent around View Monitor and technology to reduce the spread of germs.
Nissan plans to start sales of the ambulance in Japan in fiscal year 2018 and aims to double annual sales of the ambulance compared with the previous model.
