The Life Aquatic: Nissan’s NV200 Concept Out Ahead of Tokyo
The NV200 concept is Nissan’s imaginative take on the seemingly evergreen ‘functional box’ design brief as a means to riff on the next generation of light commercial vehicle.
Ready to hit Tokyo with its tasty mix of utility and high-end styling, the NV200’s instant wow item is the storage area that conspicuously slides from the rear of the van. In the show car iteration, the storage area is filled with the tools of the trade for an ocean photographer (natch), replete with flipper cubbies and an editing desk.

The sliding rear compartment is designed to be customizable, housing a pod that can be changed as the needs of the owner shift. Mix and match trays and boxes can be arranged to suit any number of profession specific equipment.

[...] La NV200 es muy peculiar porque se ‘estira’ una vez aparcada, ampliando el espacio interior a la vez que despliega en la parte exterior trasera una serie de habitáculos personalizables que permiten almacenar diversos enseres. Con esta idea de almacenes laterales deslizantes, se optimiza de forma increíble el acceso al material, así como la habitabilidad del interior. Evidentemente el vehículo está diseñado para ser adaptado a diversas actividades como, por ejemplo, vivienda hippie, taller de carpintería o un estudio de edición de vídeo (como en la imagen) y se trata sin duda de una opción muy atractiva para los profesionales que necesitan movilidad y versatilidad.
