Fancy an Eco-Friendly Overlanding Trip Through the Alps? So Would Nissan.

Since it debuted its 7-seater e-van in the U.K. in 2015, American van conversionists have been keen to get their hands on Nissan’s e-NV200. Now with a new and improved 40-kWh battery, which will give the van a range of 173 miles, the 2021 European model is becoming even more appealing to overland travelers.

To even further whet the appetite of overlanders, Nissan just revealed the e-NV200 Winter Camper Concept vehicle, complete with a factory-supported pop-up tent. Insulated glass windows and a 220-volt power pack charged by a roof-mounted solar panel are in place to keep things powered up and cozy on the inside.

Nissan made efficient use of the cargo van’s spacious interior with folding beds, a table, and a compact kitchen complete with a small refrigerator. Increased ground clearance and premium off-road tires would make navigating snowdrifts a breeze. Given that the e-NV200 battery will be capable of recharging to 80% in 60 minutes or less, it would give the overlanders inside just enough time to brew a couple of mugs of hot cocoa and figure out which ski resort to head in the direction of next.

This vision, and the innovative set of accessories available with the standard e-NV200 models, will get drivers and outdoor enthusiasts alike excited for the adventures we’re all craving in the future.”
