Which NV Passenger does Edmunds recommend?
The 2018 Nissan NV Passenger in base S trim, although not totally bare-bones, is still fairly basic and will likely prove a bit under-equipped for most buyers. We'd suggest moving up at least one level to the SV trim for its extra comfort and additional useful features. And for those who anticipate hauling a full load of people or cargo, we recommend opting for the more powerful V8 engine.
Full Edmunds Review: 2018 Nissan NV Passenger Van
Driving
There's no confusing the Nissan NV Passenger for anything other than a giant van. The V6 engine produces satisfying enough performance, even with cargo on board. The V8 is even better.
Comfort
The ride quality on the NV Passenger is decent whether the van is unloaded or full, and noise levels within the cabin are surprisingly low at freeway speeds. The seats were designed with daylong road trips in mind, and there's excellent legroom up front thanks to the forward engine placement.
Interior
The Nissan NV's interior is highly functional, with little nooks and crannies to store stuff, including a handy pull-out drawer under the driver's seat. The gauges and controls are straightforward and easy to use. Just keep in mind it's a utilitarian cabin with minimal luxury touches to be found.
Utility
There's 28.9 cubic feet of cargo room behind the NV Passenger's fourth row. But if you need to haul a bunch of cargo, you can remove seats to open up 218.9 cubic feet of space. In addition to the sliding side door, access to the cargo area is aided by rear doors that swing open 243 degrees.
Technology
Standard equipment for the NV Cargo includes a rearview camera, a 5-inch color display, Bluetooth, a USB port, and a two-speaker stereo with a CD player. And the available Navigation package adds a nav system, a 5.8-inch touchscreen, NissanConnect mobile apps, voice recognition and satellite radio.
