Which NV Cargo does Edmunds recommend?
Edmunds' Expert Review
Overall rating
Available in a wide range of models, including standard and high roofs and V6 or V8 power, the 2018 Nissan NV Cargo is a strong choice for shoppers in the market for a work van. It meets or exceeds the class average in hauling and towing capability.
The Nissan NV Cargo offers 234 cubic feet of cargo space in the standard-roof model and 323 cubic feet in the high-roof configuration. The 1500 version with the V6 engine is equipped to tow up to 6,900 pounds with a payload capacity of more than 2,700 pounds, while the 3500 with the V8 can tow up to 9,400 pounds and carry more than 3,800 pounds of cargo.
On the downside, the NV Cargo doesn't come in as many possible configurations as some rival vans, and its fuel economy is subpar. Overall, though, it's a capable choice for individuals or businesses in the market for a commercial work van.
2018 Nissan NV Cargo configurations
The 2018 Nissan NV Cargo is a full-size van that is available in three models (1500, 2500 and 3500) with increasing levels of hauling and towing capabilities. Within these models are three trim levels: S, SV and SL. The 1500 model comes only with a standard roof and a 4.0-liter V6 engine (261 horsepower, 281 pound-feet of torque) paired with a five-speed automatic transmission that drives the rear wheels. The 2500 model comes standard with this engine and is also eligible for a high roof and a 5.6-liter V8 (375 hp, 387 lb-ft) mated to a seven-speed transmission as options. The 3500 can be had with either roof but comes only with the V8.
Standard feature highlights for the 1500 S trim include 17-inch steel wheels, power windows and door locks, air conditioning, remote keyless entry, cruise control, a tilt-only steering wheel, a rearview camera, 5-inch color display, Bluetooth, a USB port, and a two-speaker stereo with a CD player. The 2500 S version also includes power-adjustable mirrors, two household power outlets, additional cargo lights, and storage bins under the driver seat and in the rear door.
Stepping up to the 1500 SV trim adds standard power-adjustable mirrors, rear parking sensors, a cargo mat, trim panels on the cargo walls, and a four-speaker stereo with redundant steering wheel controls. The 2500 SV also comes with a center console, cupholders and additional 12-volt power outlets. The top SL trim is available starting with the 2500 model and includes heated mirrors, chrome exterior trim, chrome wheels, a security system and an eight-way power driver seat.
Opting for the V8 in the SV and SL trim levels adds extendable tow mirrors, two front tow hooks, a prewired Class IV receiver hitch and a trailer brake controller. High-roof models add integrated roof-rack mounting points and an overhead console.
Bundled add-ons include the Back Door Glass package (rear windows with defrosters and a rearview mirror) and the Navigation package (navigation, a 5.8-inch touchscreen, NissanConnect mobile apps, voice recognition and satellite radio). Some features are available as options on various trims.

Features & Specs
Safety
Our experts’ favorite NV Cargo safety features:
- NissanConnect
- Automatically calls for help in the event of a collision. Roadside assistance is also just a button push away.
- Rearview Camera
- Shows you what's behind the NV Cargo before you move. Useful because the NV has no standard rear windows.
- Rear Sonar
- Starts beeping if you're getting close to an object while reversing, and the beeping gets more frequent as you get closer.

See your car's valueThe 2018 Nissan NV Cargo has one foot inside the traditional work van camp and another inside the new, more modern one. It has the stout truck frame and V8 engine option of those old-school choices. At the same time, its option for a high roof and SUV-like engine placement that frees up cabin space are more indicative of the 21st century. This setup makes the NV Cargo a bit odd, but it also makes it uniquely capable.
For starters, the NV's construction and burly available V8 provide it with far more towing capacity than newer, more modern competitors. Heck, the V6-powered version essentially matches what they can achieve in a best-case scenario. Having the V8's 375 horsepower and 387 pound-feet of torque at hand is also pretty helpful when your van is loaded to the roof with gear or cargo.
Of course, that type of engine takes its toll on fuel economy. Because of its commercial van classification, the EPA does not provide fuel economy estimates for the NV Cargo. But we don't need a federal agency to know that a 375-hp V8 will return worse fuel economy than competitors' gasoline V6 and turbodiesel engines. Those would also most likely better the NV's standard 4.0-liter V6 (261 hp, 281 lb-ft).
As with most cargo vans, there isn't exactly an immense amount of feature content available, but you can equip it to meet a variety of needs. There are three trim levels. The base S includes 17-inch steel wheels, power windows and door locks, air conditioning, cruise control, a rearview camera, a 5-inch color display, Bluetooth connectivity and a two-speaker CD player. The SV trim adds such items as rear parking sensors, cargo area lights and power mirrors. The line-topping SL features items that include front parking sensors, a power driver seat and a security system. The top two trims can be upgraded with the Navigation package, which includes a navigation system with a 5.8-inch color touchscreen, NissanConnect mobile apps, voice recognition for audio and navigation, a hands-free Text Messaging Assistant, and satellite radio.
In terms of capability, the NV's innovative design results in a cargo area somewhere in between older work vans and newer ones. With the available high roof, someone who's 6-foot-3 can walk around upright in back, but ultimately the NV can't match the maximum space of some newer competitors. You may also find the driving experience to be far more trucklike when trying to maneuver its big, bulbous front end into tight places.
However, if the job at hand calls for a work van that offers a blend of stout capability and extra interior space, we think the 2018 Nissan NV Cargo is a compelling option for many businesses. Make sure to research its competitors here on Edmunds, and check out our pricing and inventory features when you've settled on the right choice for you.

Should I lease or buy a 2018 Nissan NV Cargo?
Is it better to lease or buy a car? Ask most people and they'll probably tell you that car buying is the way to go. And from a financial perspective, it's true, provided you're willing to make higher monthly payments, pay off the loan in full and keep the car for a few years. Leasing, on the other hand, can be a less expensive option on a month-to-month basis. It's also good if you're someone who likes to drive a new car every three years or so.
