Nissan, intent to capture one more market segment for electric vehicles, has unveiled its solution for certain urban delivery needs.
Together, Nissan recently put two cool concept vehicles on stage — the Paramedic Concept and the all-electric Nissan e-NV200 Fridge Concept. The all-electric Nissan e-NV200 Fridge Concept is a modified e-NV200, of course. “The Fridge Concept’s compact size will make it easier to park in urban environments, where large delivery trucks are often prevented from stopping,” the company writes. The Nissan e-Fridge is equipped with an additional battery pack in the cargo space to power a refrigeration unit that is able to chill stored foods.
At the Tokyo Motor Show, Nissan also unveiled its new Paramedic Concept to go alongside the e-NV200 Fridge Concept. “It will be Nissan’s fifth-generation ambulance and builds on the success of the previous versions, which are sold exclusively in Japan. The next-generation ambulance is based on Nissan’s NV350 Caravan, providing better comfort for the patient and a better work environment for paramedics and drivers.”
Some unique elements packed into the new ambulance include Nissan’s industry-leading Intelligent Around View Monitor and technology to reduce the spread of germs. “The ambulance also carries a lithium-ion auxiliary battery that supports life-saving medical equipment when patients are in remote areas or need of emergency assistance. It also contributes to CO2 reduction, as well as external and internal noise reduction.
