“We very much enjoyed connecting with attendees and sharing how Nissan can support their evolving transportation needs.”

Allan Newman, LCV product manager at Nissan GB, said: “Offering two efficient powertrain solutions, practical design and unique Nissan technologies, the Townstar EV is comprehensively equipped to meet customers’ ever-changing needs.

“We’re confident Townstar will meet their every need.”

Battery thermal cooling combined with the 22kW AC and 80kW DC CCS charging is standard from Acenta grade onward.
