The sole purpose behind the NV200 is to create an enjoyable ride for the passenger and to make the cabbie’s life easier. Nissan has worked on this model for the past few years, and now it is ready to be shown at the New York Auto Show and will be on the streets of New York by next year.
Here is a short list of the notable features:
• Ample room for four passengers and their luggage, offering substantial improvements over current taxi models
• Sliding doors with entry step and grab handles, providing easy entry and exit
• Transparent roof panel, presenting unique views of the city
• Opening side windows
• Independently controlled rear air conditioning
• Active Carbon Lined headliner to help neutralize interior odors
• Overhead reading lights for passengers and floor lighting to help locate belongings
• A mobile charging station for passengers, including a 12-volt electrical outlet and two USB ports
• Breathable, antimicrobial, environment-friendly, durable and easy-to-clean seat fabric, simulating the look and feel of leather
• Flat “no hump” passenger floor area for more comfortable ride
As you can tell, Nissan has officially made the common cab modern with the NV200. Look out next year New Yorkers, the NV200 will be comfortably taking you throughout the city in what Mayor Bloomberg calls the, “safest, most comfortable and most convenient taxi the City has ever had.”
