2020 Nissan NV Passenger Review
The Nissan NV Cargo made its debut back in 2012 and has received relatively few updates since then. But that's not necessarily a bad thing. It's basically a big box on wheels supported by a pair of strong engines and body-on-frame construction borrowed from the last-gen Nissan Titan pickup. This combo helps it achieve some hefty towing numbers and seating for up to 12 passengers.

Nissan NV Passenger vs. the competition
Nissan NV Passenger vs. Mercedes-Benz Sprinter
The Mercedes-Benz Sprinter is a newer and more modern van. Highlights include seating for up to 15 people (the NV can only fit 12), a cutting-edge infotainment system with USB-C ports, a fuel-efficient diesel engine and available four-wheel drive. Still, expect to pay significantly more for all the niceties you'll find in the Sprinter.
Nissan NV Passenger vs. Ford Transit Passenger Van
The Ford Transit Passenger is nearly as old as the NV, but it doesn't show its age as much as the Nissan does. The Transit is available with seating for up to 15 passengers and a diesel engine that should help save with fuel costs. Starting in 2020, it's also available with all-wheel drive. It's available in a variety of configurations, but picking the best one isn't as simple as it is with the Nissan.
Nissan NV Passenger vs. Ram ProMaster Window Van
The Ram ProMaster Window Van lineup is even more streamlined than the already fairly straightforward Nissan NV. The ProMaster is available in a 12- or 15-passenger configuration, with a 3.6-liter gasoline V6 as the only offering. The ProMaster might win on simplicity, but rear seats must be purchased through a third party, negating much of its straightforward nature.

Should I lease or buy a 2020 Nissan NV Passenger?
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.
